Quick Update

Things have been a little crazy around here and I sadly have not had my camera with me much lately so here's the update, sans pictures for the first time in a long time.

- Kids are on fall break - yay! I am not - boo!

- Todd and I both have 4 day weekends coming up for the holiday though.

- The fall festival at the kids school has come and gone...final total not in yet but it was good. Lots of people came out.

- Tristan was recently tested for Gifted per his teachers request. On the first screening he scored in the 99th percentile. Second screening in the next two weeks and then if he does well he will start the program after the Christmas break. Mixed feelings about all that but he thinks he wants to try it so we'll see what happens.

- The house is coming, slowly. Between work and baseball and then fall festival and now holiday stuff its just slow going. Painted the entryway but it needs to be touched up because textured walls are hard to paint. Hoping after Thanksgiving shopping earns me a new living room set...and then it will be a whole new ball game!

- Tori is singing like a mad woman this coming month. A solo at our church's big event two nights in a row (she's the only kid in the whole program!). A solo and speaking part in her school chorus Christmas production. And one of the two main leads in the kids Christmas musical at church - speaking and singing. All between Dec 4th and Dec 12th. Might be a long week!

The rest is same old, same old. Excited about the holidays. Excited about having some extra time at home to work on projects and hang with the kids over Christmas break. Excited - about life - that's a good place to be!
