Happy Thanksgiving

Just want to take a moment and say Happy Thanksgiving. I'm certain by the week's end, I will have some fabulous thing to blog about.

As for the bead incident - well Parker is now permanently petrified to utilize any form of a bead for any craft project! I still am having a hard time wrapping my head around the fact that a 7 year old let a 2.5 year old shove a bead up his nose without some form of coaxing! Oh well, chalk it up to another day.......we all survived.

Happy Happy, now is a good time to be thankful for all of our Family and Friends and all you do for us because really at the end of the day isn't that all that matters? All we have? A day with some lasting memories and that is worth everything!

Happy Thankgiving.

What Every Mother Wants to Hear

So as if we didn't have a crazy enough weekend. Get the boys calmed down and bathed, working on picking up the last of the bead mess in Parker's room before bed. I put the last book away and Parker comes to me crying hysterically ..... "mom, Conner and bead" or something like that. Clearly, something is VERY wrong because he is hysterical. I ask, what are you saying and he calms down and says "Conner stuck a bead up my nose". As a person, I wanted to bust out laughing but as a mother I immediately went into "Oh My Gosh" mode. The only thing I can think of is "don't breath in ..." - so I tell him to cover one nostril with his finger and blow really hard out of the one that the bead is stuck in and....Voila - out comes the bead, shooting straight across the room.

Is is bedtime yet?????

Vacation and stuff

Mike and I just got back from his 40th birthday vacation cruise. What an awesome experience. We climbed a mountain in Honduras, swam in an underwater cave system in Cozumel and snorkled in the Bahamas. I'm ready to go back.

I will post pictures very soon! It was awesome.

The boys and I took Mike to the circus this past Saturday as his present from the boys. What a great time we had.

Pictures to come very soon!

Love to everyone
