Catching Up

Well October is gone and and for that matter half of November. Where has time gone?

We went trick or treating to end October. Not once, not twice, but three times. Jared who hates candy has enough candy to last a few years. Jared was Luigi and Jenna was Alice in Wonderland.

We started laying the tile in the basement. We are working hard to get it done by Christmas so we will have more room for the family.

Basketball season is upon us. Jared will start practicing soon.

As of yesterday I am now 36 years old. I am on the downhill slide to the big 40. I am just trying to think that 40 is the new 30 as they say on the street.

Thanksgiving is next week and our family traveling starts. We need desperately to go to Chilicothe to see Craig's parents, but sickness keeps getting in the way. I need to get some Christmas shopping done. I am normally almost done by now and finish up on the day after Thanksgiving, but this time I will be starting. Anyone have any ideas of good gifts?

We had family pics taken this past weekend. When I say family I mean the whole crew. Mom, Dad, Kevin and his family, Kim and her family and Jenna, Jared, Craig and I. I am not sure a photographer can ever get all of us to look and smile at the same time. I am taking Jared and Jenna again this weekend to get pics taken in their Christmas outfit. You can bet that you will get a picture for your Christmas card or at least in a pic in it.

Enough rambling and I better go check on my sick baby girl.
