Annoying

My husband is officially on his way to Switzerland and I won't see him for 10 more days.. depressing... :( I miss him already...

Christmas Season

YAY for the holidays! THis is my favorite time of year.. I love giving presents and the spirit of the season. I feel so blessed to share it with my little punks. THey are really just excited for the candy and presents... and grandma visiting soon! ANywho... we decorated the tree after thanksgiving and I thought I would share.

Just the tree

Not a great shot, it's with my cell phone.. but cute kids are proud of the tree they decorated!

venting....

So... it a quarter to 3 am on black friday... My husband needed to go to work which I TOTALLY get, but... it makes it impossible to sleep when he's not here. My kitty is driving me crazy and i am tired to the point i am starting to get a headache but no matter how hard i try I CaN NOt SLEEP!!! On the positive side of things.... i finished reading a book, took a bubble bath, finished our christmas newsletter and the layout for labels to stick on the envelopes for Christmas Cards. that's always good and all... just frustrated now!!! and... the WWOOORRRSSSTTT part is.. this is just the beginning. Glen is on call and so the next couple of days will be this way and then on sunday he is leaving for Switzerland and won't be back till the 10th of december. All i can think is that I hope God gives me patience and somehow helps me remember how much I love my kids... i am going to be tired and therefore crabby having to get them up and at daycare before I go to work in the mornings.. but, at least i have a job so that it makes it feasible for him to go, and will help make my time pass more quickly. I will still miss him though :(

Oh ... and hope you all had a WONDERFUL THANKSGIVING!! Ours was fabulous... maybe i should go eat pumpkin pie :)

Happy Halloween

Halloween is always fun and we were really worried this year because of the major storm we got hit with this week.. but we got lucky because the sun came out and we were able to take the kids out trick or treating and it was still pretty nice outside too! We also went to a party at church and the kids got some candy there too.. overall we had lots of fun.. too bad the punks snuck into their candy this morning and ended up having nothing but sugar for breakfast!! Hope you all had a great Haunting Weekend TOO!
