Household Happenings.....

This poor blog is suffering because I am so busy. The worst offense is that I forgot to write a post about Todd's 44th birthday on October 8th:) I did, however, make sure he enjoyed his special day to the fullest. He went golfing with Elisabeth for 5 hours (her first time) and then did absolutely nothing for the rest of the day. He got new UGG slippers, some new sweaters, Blue-Ray movies, and a delicious cake.

Big news on the Elisabeth-front....she joined a cheer team!!! I had to medicate and then drag her by her hair to the gym but she tried it and LOVED it!!! Now she just needs to figure out how to do a back flip. She is on the limited travel senior team (it goes by age, not level of experience) and will have 5 different competitions over the next 5 months. Besides having to wear butt-ass ugly cheer shoes, she is quite excited about the uniforms and hair bows!!! I truthfully think that is why she is doing this whole thing!


Isabella is still dancing (aka twirling) every Tuesday and goes to art class every Thursday (where she runs around with paintbrushes and no real supervision for 90 minutes). We went to the pumpkin farm on Saturday with her twin friends Olivia and Haley. How can a pumpkin farm be so tiring?? Maybe it was the 20 minutes of bunny petting or the 30 minute wait for the stupid tractor or the 20 minutes ride ON the stupid tractor to the pumpkin field or the 1,000,000 pumpkins we had to search through for THE perfect one. I needed a nap.
