Busy Week!

Okay, it's almost Friday! Yeah! Have I mentioned how much I love Friday's??? This has been a crazy week. My mom is still away, and I miss her! We are however picking her up from the airport on Saturday night, which I am very excited about. Elissa has been busy with school. She had her first field trip of the school year today. We went to Birchwood Dairy, which was nice, but the barns were really quite, ummmm...strong smelling, in not such a nice way. She did get her blue bubblegum ice cream cone though. Cathy was able to look after Connor while I went with Elissa. I was a little concerned her may not want me to leave but, I was barely to the front door when I noticed him running up the stairs to play with Samuel's Thomas the Train. He did great and seems to have no problem being left there.

I've been busy cleaning the house and really trying NOT to spend money. We did splurge and buy a built in vacuum at Costco this week though, so much fun!

Last night I began my art class again. It was nice to get out and explore a different creative side. I'm working on a painting of Elissa's pink cowboy boots...I think I posted the actual picture a while back.

This weekend we are busy with dance class, two birthday parties, seeing my mom, and trying to get out and work in the yard. Oh yeah, Joel was also hoping to squeeze in a golf game...we'll have to see about that one;)
