Its Fall Yall!! :)

Wowza!  I can't even believe how long it's been since I've written on here!  I really do enjoy looking back on these blogs, so I'm gonna TRY to stay caught up....we'll see!!  Lol!

As for big news, Jace started pre-k this year!!!  What??  I don't know how he's grown up so fast, but he is getting so big and he has learned to go potty all by himself!  That's big news too! :)  Triston started 2nd grade & carter started 1st grade!  Triston is in mrs andersons class & carters in mrs fowlers class!  I love both teachers & im glad I'm gonna get to know mrs Anderson better this yeAr!  Here's a few first day of school pics for everybody!!







 ***Jace was NOT shy at all!  So he went right up to the other kids and started chatting it up with them.  he even went through this boys backpack, LOL! 


 






 
 
 
So I was gonna be carters Homeroom mom this year bc I was Tristons last year.  So I went to the homeroom Mom meeting last week, and Mrs Anderson didn't have a Homeroom Mom. So I decided to do both! I may never make that decision again, but I think it will be good! Josh goes to everything, so he will be a lot of help!!  The only part of the year that would be difficult is the fall Festival, which I already worked out! We are going to combine classes and do a maze for our booth!  I'm excited & I know I will have lots of help! :)  check back with me in May to see if I made it ;) lol!

In other news, thru the summer we went to chuckee cheese with Babaw and grandad and Jobug quite a bit!  We always had a great time, so towards the end of summer the boys were sad bc they didn't want it to end! So on Labor Day the boys were outta school so we made one final trip to chuckee cheese!!  Babaw was insanely generous and got us 700 tokens to spend!!!  That's over 100 tokens a person!!  CRAZY AWESOME!!  I don't mean to brag or anything, but I have pretty much mastered some of the games at il chuckees!!  Lol!  One in particular is my favorite! The REACTOR!!  And I just so happen to win a lot of tickets when I play!  I have also taught carter to join me!! :) ;)  so on Labor Day josh joined us & he thought he could get more tickets than I could!!  HA!!!  That did NOT happen!!  Lol! ;)  but with josh an I both playing the boys had a little over 5,000 tickets!!  Whoop!!  Not that I don't think that place is a waste of money, but it's a fun waste of money, haha!!  Babaw is getting all the kids tokens for Christmas!!  Yay!!  Hopefully I'll get a few too!! ;)
 

As for other news, were still living with mom and dad!  Their house is getting closer and closer to done.  Mark (the builder) says should be about 6 weeks.  We'll see!  Lol! There are so many areas of the house that are so cluttered, so it will be nice to have space for everything & actually have a house again! :) it's tough right now, but it'll be worth it!  I'm sure 4 loud kids isn't exactly "home sweet home" for mom and dad either, so it's a bit of give and take on both ends!!  Im trying to slow down on my wreaths so we can paint our coffee table and moms bed and table and crystal her mirror, but it seems like every time I'm almost caught up I get a surge of orders.  I can't complain, but I am gonna just tell people I'm 3 weeks out, so that I can work on MY stuff!!  So needless to say, I'm sure this holiday season coming up will be super busy tryin to get wreath orders done and tryin to get my house and moms house all decorated and set up!  Should be an interesting time!! :)






 

This past Sunday we took the kids up to cha while josh and dad did their life group!  Kyndal was fearless as always!  Jace did so well climbing the rock wall and stuff!  The big boys are both just crazy on those toys out there!  They look like little monkey swinging from toy to toy!  Crazy! But they all had fun!!  :). That's kind of all I can think of to update you on!  So I guess that's all for now!  Hopefully ill write again sooner rather than later!!
