We Have Power

So this morning was slow going.  I was not 100% for anything.  By the afternoon I was feeling some better, but still not how I needed to feel.
Brandon actually got off decently early today which was good for our todo list.  We headed out when he got home and got started checking things off.
We headed to the new house where there was not much going on, but the power was on!  This seriously tickled the boys.  I think it will take me a year to figure out which switch works which light, fan, or various other device.  I cannot wait to start learning though.  The gutter men were also there working it is super hot so I can imagine that they are seriously not enjoying being on the roof.  I seriously appreciate them though!

We got a lot of boxes today.  Thank you to the ABC stores and to the Piggly Wiggly in Clay!  We seriously need them so we definitely appreciate them. 

When we got home we got to work.  Packing boxes, cleaning, tossing, and whatever else we could do.  Overall it was a great day, it was definitely a very productive one!

First Mass

So I love Mass days at school, mainly because I love seeing my little guys in their ties. They look so handsome. :) We did a quick photo shoot at the school. They were not into it, but I was.

I had to go by the Network and let Brandon check my tires. Of course I needed air in all 4 of them. That was pretty frustrating, but at least he was able to get me all ready to go. I headed back to the school so that I could go to Mass with the boys. Even though I cannot sit with them it is nice to have that hour with them during school and at Mass. Such special times.

It was a great Mass. The eighth grade was commissioned as the leaders of school after Mass. It was just a great hour and a much needed one for me.

We still had no power when I left the house again to pick the boys up. I am tired of trying to get anything done in the dark, and I am dreading cleaning out the refrigerator. Sickening, is the best way to describe how I feel about the whole thing. The boys are bored and ill and so is their momma!

We had our first den meeting today after school. We have three new Bear Cubs, I am super excited about that. This meeting we focused on getting them their Bobcat badge...Check! Then we had races in the back for about 15 minutes. They needed to run off some energy. Next week basketball!

We came home and I thought there was a light on, but was not sure. I knew the guys had been working so I thought what the heck and I tried the garage door. I can assure you that I have NEVER been so happy to see a garage door open in my life! YAY for power and kudos to Alabama Power and all of the linemen who helped get power restored. You guys ROCK!

We had lights, and most importantly HOT WATER!!!!

Well, I am still seriousy behind on the blog but by the weekend i will b caught up!
