I DO still have a blog...

just no reliable internet service to go with it! I bit the bullet yesterday and called to get our "own" internet service at home so I won't have to use our unreliable neighborhood service. It has been down for almost a week now, so I can't do anything. I have such cute pics to post of the kids- Halloween costumes, playing outside yesterday in the 70 degree weather, and other random shots, but our appt. to get our internet hooked up isn't until Monday of next week... so the wait continues. I am frustrated that our neighborhood provides free wireless and yet I'll still have to pay. But I have suffered long enough. No more! :-)

Halloween was great. A balmy, warm night, lots of candy, fun with friends, and a new experience that we won't be repeating. We tried Ridge Point for Trunk-or-Treat, and we had 7 kids in our group. Not condusive to keeping up with 7 kids. It was PACKED! We didn't stay there long and headed to Faith instead, which was more up our alley. Much calmer, fun games and lots of candy. My kids love going there for Halloween. But we did get free pizza and drinks at RP, so worth the trip there and fighting the masses for that. :-)

Let's see...indoor soccer has started up. Cobe had his first indoor game of the season on Saturday. They played a team that was the only team that has ever beaten them, so our guys were psyched out before it even started. But we beat them this time 9-0!!! Cobe had a good game- he scored 3 goals and was definitely in his element. He loves soccer- but he still says he is going to play football again next fall. I wish those two sports were in different seasons so he could do both. Lisa and I went shopping all afternoon after the game. Got a few more Christmas gifts and some groceries. We headed over to the Bells that night for some YUMMY, YUMMY steak and some Wii action. Fun night! And did I mention the YUMMY food??????

I think our old house sold. Some folks made an offer and our builder accepted it, so we are set to close end of November/early December. I hope it all goes through- it would be nice to see life in it again. We still have a few things to move out of it, so we need to get on that. We were still using the garage there as storage for the stuff we didn't want to move, but didn't want to give to Goodwill, so now we'll have to decide what exactly to do with it all. It isn't much thank goodness.

I don't do well remembering what all has gone on in our lives when I don't post frequently. So, this will have to be it for awhile. My boys are great, Sadie is still pushing my buttons and trying my patience, hmmm... what else? haha Sadie and I used her Target gift card from Jeff and Michele recently, and she got the movie Aquamarine and a Hannah Montana shirt. She wore it yesterday and I washed it so she could wear it again today to school. So I took pics of her yesterday Jeff and Chele, so you could see her prizes. Thanks!

Well.... my students are now entering the classroom, so I guess I better do what I am paid to do-TEACH!
