I HAVE SLACKED AND I AM SORRY! :)

So, the month of November has been up and down. But mostly up.

Christmas decorations are up. Josh got our first family tree and I put it up last night, waiting for the kids to come home to put decorations on it.

Things are coming together for Josh's birthday. I am hoping that the original shirt I ordered gets here in time or that the second back up shirt I ordered gets here in time...one or the other at least!

Kids are doing great. Naomi's Girl Scouts is still fun, we went to a movie night last Friday and had a great time. Brodie's still in Boy Scouts. Both are doing well in school.

Cats are good. Josh got them catnip yesterday and it made them crazy!

Christmas shopping is almost done! Need to get Brodie one more gift, both kids a new outfit, and stocking stuffers. And need to get Josh's present(s) and stocking stuffers. Got all of us our footie pj's too - Naomi a Troll, Brodie a dragon, Josh a snowman, and me a unicorn. :)

Will become better on updating daily again!

10/28/16: Friday my friend Megan and I went to this Whisker's cat cafe pop up, got to hang with some kittens. Then we went to dinner and then World of Fun Halloweekends! It was a real fun night! Lots of laughs. :)

10/29/16: Saturday I went to a costume contest at Torn Label, then went to a friend's party, then picked Josh up from work to which he dropped me off at Lew's to hang out with a couple friends. It was a fun night! I was dressed as a party animal!

10/30/16: Sunday picked the kids up from their dad, had some Sonic, and went home. Relaxing before the trick or treating the next day!

10/31/16: Halloween! Fun day. I went to the kids' school to watch them in the parade, hung out with them during their parties, then brought them home afterwards. We then went to dinner at Waldo Pizza and then trick or treating! Naomi was a pink kitty and Brodie a ninja.

11/1/16: First day of November! We all had a lazy day after school. Kids did homework and then did their thing, Josh made dinner.

10/27/16: I got everything for Halloween costumes! Felt rushed but got it all done. :) Just in time, too!

10/26/16: Yesterday the kids told me that they needed to dress up as a character for tomorrow's spirit day. Brodie decided on Nate from Yo-Kai Watch and Naomi had a tougher time deciding. I kept giving suggestions but she didn't like any....then she finally decided on being a Shopkins girl. They were both happy in the end.

10/21/16: I don't think we did much on Friday either. Josh worked so the kids and I just hung out.

10/22/16: Saturday we didn't do much. Just hung out and watched movies. Made the kids watch Never Ending Story. I think Bro was more into it than Nomi.

10/23/16: Sunday Naomi and I went to Target to grab a few things. She got a new cat sweater that she loves and got Bro a black shirt for his costume.

10/24/16: Josh and I just hung out at home, watched tv. Lazy Monday.

10/25/16: After I picked the kids up we went to the park and hung out for awhile. It was too nice to go straight home.

10/20/16: I've been having frequent headaches lately (I don't know why), so I slept a lot yesterday. Slept after work. Got up to vacuum, clean the cat box, shower... Then went to bed again. I needed the sleep.

10/12/16: I mostly tried to get everything together tied up at work.

10/13/16: Had the day off and spent it trying to get everything together for our trip!

10/14/16-10/18/16: Our trip to North Carolina! My sister got married on the 15th and then we just vacationed the rest of the time. It was a wonderful trip! We laughed a lot. Ate a lot of great food. Had a super fun time!

10/19/16: First day back at work and nothing worked. Parent teacher conferences that evening for the kids - kids are doing great in school and both are in advance groups in their classes. Kids and I celebrated with some Papa Keno's after the conferences. :)
