ThE SiStErS...

~
There is nothing so sweet as sisters!
(well when they aren't trying to rip each others faces off, that is)
~
It was so cute.
I had just gotten kids ready for bed, and I wasn't all that enthusiastic about "take home reader" time. I sat down on the couch with Sammy, ready to wade thru some kindergarten reading at the end of another long day, and this was the scene in front of me.

There really is something very special about sisters!

A RUT...

So, my friends do you ever feel like you're in a rut? A big huge rut, that is impossible to climb out of. Well, I do. In fact I've felt trapped by this damn rut for months now. I feel like I clean up the same messes in the same rooms. Yell the same things at my cute/stinky kids. Repeat the same instructions over and over and over until I'm pretty sure I am in fact talking to the wall. Buy the same groceries for the same meals. Drive the same carpools. Then fall into bed where I don't actually sleep (because I'm psychotic), so I can climb out of bed a couple hours later to start all over again. So, that is me in a nutshell, I'm a lunatic & I keep thinking that something is wrong with me! So what do we do when the Mom is a little on the crazy side? We make a huge tent in the living room and have a sleepover! Woo Hoo! It's amazing how cool these kids are and how a few old sheets tied to kitchen chairs makes for a GREAT time! Score!
Yep those are their little legs under our cool dinosaur tent. We watched a few movies, ate popcorn and chocolate milk. Nothing could be better!
* I guess this rut, is just being a Mommy and I don't always do my best to remember it. But I wouldn't change this for anything! In fact when I do sit back and think about things I realize just how fast it's all flying by! So I'm changing my tune, bring on the rut!!

( Just a little side note, look at the little sneaky baby. Should I be frightened? Well, I am!)
~
**Tonight I am toasting my Diet Coke to my RUT! Thanks to my kids for reminding me that it's a good thing!! And, for reminding me to be a little more Pollyanna about things!!
(that's for you Cec!)

WordFUL Wednesday...

I'd like to introduce you to Mr. & Mrs. John Adams.

My cute neighbors had the BEST costumes for Halloween! They watched the showtime series on the Adams and felt inspired. Carol even made the costumes herself! I know, I felt more inadequate than usual. So Cute, she is amazing!!

Presenting... STINKER~BELL


Here is our Tinkerbell or as we call her Stinkerbell!
As you can obviously see, she's the cutest Stinkerbell around!

All the kids chomping at the bit to get Trick or Treating!







We had tons of fun Trick or Treating this year, it was basically just a big party. I met up at the end of the street with my friend Carol and her cute kids, and we hooked up around the block with some other friends and their kids. It was tons of fun. Even getting rained on didn't damper anyones spirits.
It was a very fun night!
