I thought for sure once fall came I would have oodles of time. Time to blog and craft and see friends BUT not so much. I have no idea what I'm busy with but it always seems like Dusty and I are gone. I have great hopes that November will be "slower" just so we can start some more reno's before Christmas.
Ellie and Lucy have been having so much fun playing with one another lately. They both got babies for Ellie's birthday so they've been pretending to be mommies. It's been so fun listening to them.
All of us are excited for Halloween. Ellie and Lucy have both decided that they wanted to be witches. Ellie is a good witch and Lucy is the mean witch. They tote their Halloween bucket around asking me for candy. Good try. I've been holding off on the baking but I think this afternoon I'll cave. They both want to make and decorate cookies and I thought I'd make some chocolates that look like Jack o'lanterns.
Ellie's primary presentation is next week. She is VERY excited for it. We had our first rehearsal yesterday and I thought it went pretty well. I was expecting much worse considering I don't even remember all the songs we learned this year.
It is my MIL's 50th birthday this week. We went down on the weekend and had dinner with her. It was fun. Dusty was hunting and didn't think he was going to be around so I was planning on just taking the girls down myself but he surprised us all by coming. It was nice. I was glad I didn't have to drive alone, especially considering only two weeks ago I vowed to never drive alone in a car with both the girls EVER. They get along so well at home and in public but as soon as you get them strapped into the car it is chaos.
I have to go. It's my favorite time of day. NAP time. I'm going to go and enjoy to peace and 1 and 1/2 hours of aloneness.

I just recently made that same vow to NEVER drive with the kids alone again. I'm sure I'll be forced to break it again, probably in 2 weeks just like you!
