The week has gotten away from me - not that there has been a lot to write. Pretty humdrum days, which are really nice.

We have had our last soccer practice, just waiting for the last soccer game this Sunday. So nice to come home after school and stay home. Lots of time after school for reading, homework, games, popcorn, hot chocolate.

We had our first snowfall last night. Just enough to cover everything. I love going up to the school and seeing all the big snowballs/snowmen. We are only 2 weeks into cold weather and gloves are already going missing! Given that we live in a cold climate, where it is winter a good 4 or 5 months, it amazes me how few homes have mud rooms. None of them are set up for places for gear.

The boys (I had JBs taken too, since he is at the preschool) have gotten their school pictures back. Two of them turned out great and the third...well, not so much. When you get the deer in the headlights look, big time, you really want a do over. Not sure that my child will 'do over'. Been trying to talk him in to it. Retakes are Nov 1st, so my time is disappearing!

Just drawing a blank, so won't go on any more! Seems my blog ebbs and flows. The flowing seems to have diminished.
