So today we worked around the house. There is so much that has to be done and even though we probably should have gotten up to go to church, and we probably should have gone to the grocery store the simple thing is it was just better for us to stay home. We have most of the living room packed up. In fact, other than Wii stuff we are done, since everything else is furniture.
We worked in our room and got all of the Chistmas stuff that I had bought for next year organized and put up and packed up. While it may not seem like a lot it is a great thing to know that we are getting closer and closer to done.
I was able to get a good bit on eBay, and as long as it keeps selling that will be awesome! I am trying to get what I can done. Everything just feels like it is landing on my shoulders right now.

Christmas is Coming....in October?
So today I have a lot to get done, with the way that my sessions are taking off thanks to the Living Social Families special I am going to have very little time especially on the weekends. I am excited though as I know that it will mean wonderful things for my family.
I have been working tirelessly on getting the office done, but that meant getting the Christmas presents I already had wrapped. Today I finished those up, except for a few for the boys that I will do tomorrow. I am super excited about the progress that has been made for Christmas. Once I get some photographs finished, I will be even closer to complete. I love finishing early! Less stress is always a blessing.
While going through I have found several decorations that we purchased for the house. I have nowhere to put it up for the next few weeks so I decided to go on and start putting it out. We have 2 mirrors decorated and a few candles out. Who knows what tomorrow will bring. Brandon could come home to a winter wonderland. I figure the more I get done now the less we have to do next month. We shall see how it all works out. Praying for positively.
The boys had great days at school today, which is always great to hear. We came home and knocked out homework and studying for tests. So far 2 days for 2 days of Green faces, hoping that John Michael will keep it up I know that he can.
Well, I am going back to editing and homework and I am hoping bed...soon. It is 8:15 now and I would LOVE to b there in 45 minutes but I do not think it will happen since the boys are still up. Maybe though. Praying for all of you.

Frisbee Fun
So today was sort of productive. We woke up and were in no rush until Danny's tie went missing. Fortunately it was found and we were on time, but it had us pushing it a little closer than what I like.
I was glad to be able to go to Mass with the School today. School Masses are so special and I have to admit that one activity alone makes me never question the tuition. Spending time with my boys and Jesus is very special. Today a second grader was baptised. It was such a special moment and I was glad to be there.
John Michael got a green face today so that was super awesome! I am so proud of him and decided to reward him. I talked to his teacher to let her know that we are doing all that we know how to do. I know that he can do this. He is a sweet boy, just can be overly excited sometimes.
Today was the den meeting with the Bear Cubs. We started with some serious Frisbee. It allowed them to burn some energy, which is usually good. It also helped us move closer to the badges. We also talked about Famous Americans that are also Scouts. We also decided which two folklore stories we will be telling at the den meeting. Next week we will practice. Big Foot and Ichabod Crane watch out...you are headed to the cub scout pack meeting. It should be a lot of fun.
I have been working steadily in the office but trying to go through these Christmas presents is not as easy as it sounds. I have started to wrap them to hopefully get a handle on what we have and what we need. This is probably what I will be doing tomorrow too. Christmas in October is a common theme. The good thing is when we put the trees up there will be gifts to go under them.
Editing is the other focus of my days. I have a good bit to get done and time is not cutting me any slack. I will make it happen though.
Well, I am off to bed, still not 9:00 but it is 9:40! Getting there. Know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers!
