November Update

I have decided I am "bump on the log" this year. Usually during October I am so excited to gross my kids out with dinner and do fun "Halloween" things. But not this year. I didn't even really decorate my house....We had a big work party and I was in charge of my suite decorating and it was a headache to say the least. But the actual party turned out awesome and we had a lot of people attend. So it was all worth it but it took away from my families Halloween moments :(. I did make them bloody mummies and maggots for Halloween but of course their lives are to busy for mom so not everyone ate it.

I have also decided raising teenage girls is the hardest job in the world. I really don't know how people survive this whole kid raising thing. It is enough to totally put someone in a loony bin. No wonder I am going gray and looking like I am about 50 years old. I am glad I got into exercising because otherwise I would not have an outlet for all the stress I am under and I think I would be locked up somewhere.

We took a sporadic trip to Denver over the kids UEA. The girls didn't want to join us so it was just Scott, me and Kaden. We went to see the Denver Broncos play the Jags. Kaden wore his Jaguar shirt in the sea of Orange. Of course Denver won. Our hotel stay SUCKED but I got 50% back on the hotel bill so it worked out nicely :) Kaden of course had a great time.

Kaden made it to the playoffs in football but lost the first play off game. He also got Mono and wasn't able to play the last couple games so he was bummed.

Other than that my life is crazy but pretty boring. I am still adjusting to having a baby in my house, and then teenage girls drive me NUTS and trying to keep up with Kaden and Scott I am worn out...Are you sure I am not 50 years old?? However, life is great and I am enjoying the time I have left with the kids because I know I will blink and they will be all grown up (after all Kia is 18 next year!!)

I can't believe Holiday's are just around the corner and I still don't get to run away for Christmas. I am determined to get my way one year and just leave but it won't be this year...
