life is (crazy) busy these days. busyness isn't something i choose but rather seems to come with the territory of having growing children! i'll survive. i don't love it, but i love that our weekends are very low-key and unstructured. i love weekends more than ever right now.
speaking of weekends...
will and i went to arkansas last weekend for a mini family reunion and the arkansas-auburn game. we had a BLAST! we saw my brother and sister and lots and lots of aunts, uncles, and cousins. we also saw a fantastic football game. i love razorback football!!!
we were in st. louis part of the time. in fact, we flew in and out of there and drove down to fayetteville. i think st. louis is a fun city! we ate some really great pizza at pi (evidently our president loves pi too) and i finally got to go in charming charlie. such a neat store and really great prices! there are a couple in denver but they are not really in the neck of the woods that we frequent.
this is a short week of school for my kiddos. the girls are out tomorrow and everyone is out on friday. can you say LONG weekend? i am beyond thrilled about that.
let's see...what else is going on???
well, i'm cooking dinner for church tonight. i love being able to eat dinner at church but we've had such crazy evening schedules that it hasn't worked until tonight. we're having chili tonight which is appropriate for our cool fall weather.
will has a date for homecoming this weekend at his school. he asked her a few weeks ago. he was so non-chalant about it. i was running to the store for something and he asked if i'd buy him a rose so he could give it to the girl he was planning to ask. she said yes and evidently carried the rose around all day long. anyway, the dance is this weekend (as is the game) and he and his date are going with their whole cross-country team. fun! i'll take pics, don't you worry.
it's almost time to start my afternoon kid-pick-up round(s) so i suppose i should sign off.
happy wednesday, peeps.

What a small world. I have cousins who live in Rogers, Arkansas...used to fish with my grandpa on Beaver Lake
How Fun! I was in St. Louis last weekend too! (only an hour from my home). Wish I would've known & I would've met you @ Pi. Glad you had so much fun w/your young guy :)
Your trip with one of your kids sounds fun. I am about to do the same with one of my kids- but to AK, where there are not many aunts, uncles, and cousins, but one aunt, one uncle, and two cousins.
And snow? No thanks.
Whatever! My kids are little and I'm drowning!!!
A DATE????? Can't get over that one! LOL! :)
