It has been a tough week. Dealing with some pretty heavy extended family stuff, so have been preoccupied. The kids however, have not missed a beat. This is our last week of soccer - yeah!!! As much as I have loved watching B grow and develop this season, it will be nice not to have the 1 hour, twice a week interruption from 5:30-6:30. Plus it is starting to get cold and when the sun sets around 6pm, I am heading for the car.

JB had his Harvest Party at preschool on Wednesday. He opted not to wear a costume. Surprised me, not sure why because he is my child that you never know from day to day what to expect. He had a lot of fun and I think he enjoyed showing his little brother all around his 'school'.

Wrapped up most of the fundraiser stuff. Most of the money is in and I am going over the weekend to buy the bikes for the kids that won! Probably a highlight. Some of these kids were so motivated to win so to see their smiles when they learn their hard work paid off, is worth it all. With the Fun Run, the kids met their 5,000 lap challenge. Therefore, 4 of the teachers competed in a Minute to Win It challenge. We brought the whole school out to the soccer field and cheered them on. The winning teacher, her class, then got to silly string the principal. Amazing what 25 cans of silly string looks like!

All of us curled up on couches tonight and watched game 7 of the World Series. JB started out on my lap. Once he was asleep, B took his place for a while. Then J stole his spot and fell asleep within 2 minutes of settling in with me. I don't know the last time I had all three of them on my lap! I was actually shocked when B told me he wanted to lay with me.

Have some pictures to upload. Hopefully this weekend. All we have is a Cub Scout Archery Camp and the last soccer game!
