Aunt Stephanie and Uncle Michael came over and helped us carve pumpkins and we all had a great evening together.
My bookshelf project is almost done. I am so excited about it. I think it's gone very well and I am anxious to finish up the last few steps.
The weather has finally changed to fall-like most days. Lots of rainy weekends.
I had Thanksgiving lunch with the boys at school today, kind of crazy to think that we are officially in "the holidays". I swear school just started yesterday.
Other than that... I had a nasty case of severe tonsilitis in October, quickly followed by a badly sprained ankle and then happily a couple of weeks of good health. Now I'm in the midst of either severe allergies or more likely bronchitis. Allergies go away after a few days, or at least get to a place where it's easy to control. This, well, anyway... it's finally starting to get better. Fortunately, nothing is or has been contagious, so it's just me suffering through this crud. I have 16 kids that I read with at school a couple of times a week. As much fun as it is I am looking forward to Thanksgiving break and Christmas break.
The boys are great. Alex is flourishing in school, having a blast. He has the most amazing teacher who is really bringing out a love of learning in Alex this year. Ben is doing great too. He would much rather help everyone else do their work than do his own, but with a little prodding it all gets done. Ben's got a great teacher too and he loves school and playing with all his buddies.
Mike is busy busy busy at work, but fortunately not traveling too much. He gets some time to work on models and help the boys with their models. His office is moving to a new location in December. It's closer to home and hopefully that means he will have a much more pleasant commute to/from work. I am happy he'll be closer.
And that... is us.
