Update

I did not realize it had been so long since I posted last. We had a great Thanksgiving. Susan & family came and mom and dad. We had lots of good food and had a great visit. Danielle and Clayton came Friday and visited with us and we played cards for awhile. We were fortunate to attend a fireside that was put on by Michael McClean on adoption on Sunday. We took the whole family and it was wonderful. I think I cried the whole program. It brought back alot of the memories of the despair that we felt when we found out that we could not have children. The program talked about trying to adopt the perspective of the mother giving the child away the receiving parents and also the grandparents of the child being adopted out. It made me remember how blessed that we are to have been able to adopt and have children in our home. I am trying to get ready for the Super Saturday in our ward. It is this Saturday. I hope that I have everything that I need by now. I get to go to Book Club tonight and am really excited. I really enjoy reading and it is lots of fun to get together with other women and discuss a good book. Well have to go now.

Yea The weekend

Yea it is Friday. Makayla and I just got back from the mall. they sure have alot of cute things out at the mall, but I have a hard time spending $29 for a tank top. I found a really cute green coat that I might just have to buy. I am thinking hard about it and showed it to makayla in case the girls want to get it for me for Christmas. I went and did alot of window shopping trying to get some ideas for the girls for christmas. Clayton and Danielle are coming tomorrow and we are going to play some games and do some visiting. I am really looking forward to Amanda's workshop tomorrow. I like to make all of the things that she brings to her workshops. Well have to be going. Bye now.

Weekend News

We had a very busy weekend. We had Susan and family, Amanda and family and Clayton and Danielle at our house this weekend. It was fun but rather crazy. Paige was cooing and smiling at us this weekend. She is getting so big. Paul and I went to Clayton and Danielle's home on Monday and put in a new floor in their entry way. It looks so much better than the cracked grey linoleum. It was hard work but it made them happy so it was worth all of the hard work. Their home is so comfy and right for them. I finally got into my office today and cleaned it up. It was an absolute mess and I could not even get into it to do anything. but it is all organized again and I can get in and update my blog site. Well have to be going. bye now.

Finally

I received a chewing out from Susan because I had not posted since 10-27. But I have a good excuse, I have not been feeling well. I finally went to the doc and I have strep throat. I am on antibiotics and also mucinex for the cough that I also developed. It makes me so mad I had plans to go in to get my flu shot the morning that I woke up with the sore throat. I ended up home from work today. Not what I had planned. Tomorrow is Paul's Bday and I had all of these plans to get things done which are not going to happen. Luckily I had already given him his bday present. I am hoping for a better day tomorrow so that we can all go out to lunch for the bday boy. Kate is coming into town with the new baby and we are going to an open house at Steve and Mollys to check out Marcus. I hate staying home all day. There is absolutely nothing on tv. I did sleep alot. I also checked out all of the pictures of the halloween costumes of the nieces and nephews. They were really scary. bye now.
