But there have been some bright spots since I last wrote...of which I will tell a little!!
(or a lot, it depends on how long the kids take to realize I'm on the computer)
Ok--so last post our week was uneventful (to say the least), and Erick was home.
Part of the week.
Which is far better than this week--as he has seen the kids....well, not since Monday. And even then they had to go to bed only a few minutes after he was home.
"Why is he so busy?" you may ask... I will tell you. It's a combination of pep band, basketball tournaments, (that never seem to end. ever.) and yet even more basketball games. That's it in a nutshell.
On to the bright spots!!
We had our Christmas Concert with Greenville College and that went as well as expected. We were even broadcast on the internet via the radio! That was a first for me, I think. The boys got to play with their fav, Amanda, while we were performing so it was a win-win-win situation. (win #1--they had super fun win #2--we were on the radio and win #3--Christmas concerts are done til next year!!) ((Bonus!!))
When we got back, we had some visitors from the far of Western Lands of Utah. Yep---Mia and Dennis and Taicy.
And Dad and Mom.
Its always fun to see family around the holidays!
Of course, it was past their bed times, so all the kids went to bed (even though they all really wanted to run around and play)...and we adults didn't stay up too much later either.
Well, the last few days we spent quality time---reminding the kids that "no, you must share the toys", visiting WalMart for things that we forgot, watching Disney movies (for the 1,000th time for me) and other fun South-Central IL types of activities.
(or nothing....)
It really was fun--then everyone had to head back today, and the boys are showing how sad they are by chasing each other around the house.
So now, I remember that its only Wednesday. And I'll have to find something fun to do, at some point.
Maybe I'll...
