They say a picture's worth a thousand words, and I believe it. A blank page to write on is just such a daunting task for me. However, explaining a picture--that I can do. Anyway, it's quite evident that I haven't posted anything in a long time. You can say things have been rather crazy around here. Anyway, I have some new motivation coming to my house today, and want to get my backlog taken care of to make room for pictures galore. My new camera will get here today!!! So... back to the old stuff. Halloween!!
Halloween was a nightmare! You can say the day didn't go as planned at all. First off, I was up until 1 a.m. finishing Kinnlee's skirt. Kinnlee had her Halloween party at school and we needed to leave for school ay 7:30 a.m. Keep
in mind I still had a 1 mo. old that was nursing every 2 hours, and I also had to pump after I nursed her. This made for days of feeding-- 1 hr feeding, 1 hr to take care of everything else. So, we get ready to head out the door to school at that crazy morning hour, and I can't find the keys. This is a normal occurance, however after 20 minutes of looking, I started panicing. I couldn't find them in any sort of reasonable spot. Finally, I called a neighbor in our ward, who came and picked Kinnlee up and took her to school. (Love her!) I figured at that point, had a couple of hours to tear apart the toy boxes upstairs. No where to be found! I started wondering if Luke may have picked them up, but my cell phone (the only place I had Luke's work number) was in the car. Our home phone doesn't have long distance, so there was no way to reach him. I thought about emailing him, but didn't think he'd check his personal email accounts. Finally, I searched through my old emails, and found ONE email from his work account, that he had written when we had all the fires in San Diego. I emailed him, and sure enough, he had my keys and would have to wait until a little later, before he could bike home and give them to me. (oh, for everyone that's wondering where the spare set of keys are-- Luke keeps them with him at work) So, at 11 o'clock, I walked the mile to Kinnlee's school and picked her up and walked the mile home. We were exhausted when we got home at 1:00. Luke got home at 3, and we were supposed to go trick-or-treat back at his work. We scratched that, all took naps until 6, and trick-or-treated the neighborhood for a half-hour. When we got home, Aynslee was screaming and I needed pictures. So, I managed to get individuals of them, all grouchy and ready for bed, and gave up. I was so glad the day was over!
