Halloween Madness is Coming!

We have a busy week ahead of us. . . as we were sitting at dinner tonight discussing all the days this week that have multiple activities occurring at the same time. . . oh boy!. . . that is all I have to say.   I hate picking and choosing what will trump the other, but that is definitely the case this week.  Saturday will be the hardest with a soccer game and our snack day, football game, foot ball banquet, 1birthday party, 1 Halloween party, 1 neighborhood Halloween carnival that we are helping at a booth, not to mention trick or treating in itself. . . and to top it all off we need to figure out costumes still.  The other days seem fairly easy compared to Saturday.  

RS Craft Night!

I came upon this great blog that we have picked up some ideas for a RS Meeting Craft Night from Windmill lettering click here to see what they have been doing. We are doing the Christmas Countdown blocks (although we are doing our own kits. . . thanks for the idea though). I can't help it if I have every tool to cut wood known to man. . . kidding. . . not quite. . . but close. . . and Michele has a vinyl lettering machine which means if you are in our RS you are hooked up.

So the other night when I was up in the wee hours of the night surfing random blogs I came across www.tipjunkie.com and they were talking about their craft group which is called "not your mama's craft group" NYMCG. I thought it was hilarious and fabulous, and I wish I was that clever, but I am not so I will just use ideas from other people's handy blogs to facilitate the activities that we create at church.

Pumpkin Patch Fieldtrip!

coolest project ever. . .

So it is the middle of the night and I have a sick child now asleep. . . so I should be sleeping, but I have been surfing project ideas on the computer, and I found the funnest project I have to try.

Click here to check it out and when I get a few moments I am going to attempt it. I love new information, and there is so much fun stuff on the Internet. . . can you tell I am suffering from lack of sleep. . .ha ha.

H turns 6 with a Party!!

We had such a great time for H's bday in the backyard. I painted faces, and Rochelle did animal baloons. . . It was so much fun. I am a somewhat late posting. . . but that is life. . busy. He is thrilled to finally be in school, and he loves, loves, loves it.

He is our happy go lucky kid with his dimples and laughter. We are so lucky to have him. I truly love and enjoy him.
