HALLOWEEN!
Morgan and Sydney were both butterfly fairies and Colton was a knight in shining armor! The girls loved spraying their hair with some glitter dye. Morgan was sporting blue and Sydney was in pink. Colton had way to much fun in his costume...playing the part too well!
Colton called it in early though. He got really tired during the treating so he handed me his bucket and had daddy carry him the rest of the time. They all scored some yummy candy (hahaha). The rest of the week I've been working at our new house. I've been priming all the walls and ceiling. They finally got started on the construction to our addition on Thursday too! What was our sunroom in the back is no longer there. The windows and walls AND ceiling are gone! And it got cold Thursday too! GEEZ was it cold in the house! Neal took a day off Friday and I helped him put up some dry wall and got to play with the drill. :) We had to put back up the old drapes that I had taken down for priming. Don't want inspectors to look inside the house and see that we are doing some work on the inside too. Don't want to get our contractor in trouble. Kind of silly though if you ask me! The contractors are doing the work on the OUTSIDE. WE are doing the work on the inside. BUT, don't want to ruin any one's plans, so we are abiding by the rules...I guess.
The house is still a wreck and we have to move in next weekend. Well...we have till the 20th but next weekend is the ONLY free weekend we have before our trip in 16 days.
SHHH! Girls don't know and I can't wait till they find out!
Today was Morgan's first soccer game and she was in the goal for the first half. I was a little skeptical on her being in the goal. I'm a mom...scared she'll get kicked in the face. PLUS, I like to see her in the action and not getting scored on!
So I had Neal stop at a sports store after Thursday's practice, which got rained on so it got cancelled once we got there, and had him buy her some gloves and a mouthguard.
She did well I must say. Needs some work, but she's only had 2 practices. In the 2nd half though...she came out running and doing some fancy footwork and was able to get the ball away from some of the defendors. She was playing tricks on them! LOL LOVED IT! I'm not sure where she's practiced those moves, but I want to see more!
They lost but it wasn't bad considering they haven't ALL practiced altogether yet in the 2 practices we've had. Can't wait till next weekend! Maybe then I'll remember to have my camera. I just feel so out of this week. The house is a wreck b/c I haven't had a chance to pay attention to it, I've been at the other house (and I'm sure the kids can't wait till we finally stay at ONE home...I know I will...mess or no mess).
Trying to play catch up on the computer tonite and get cracking on the laundry.
