Like my new look?

by teresa

I love our new template!

Thank you soooo much Mary. You are so like, totally awesome (said in my best valley girl voice).

The past two days have been so busy. Lots of commitments and little time.
I did have fun yesterday buying some frames and putting together some artwork for Chris new office. The boys and I took and his new things to his work last night...then we spent the next hour and a half hanging it all up. Then we headed out to dinner and home to get to bed.

This morning was competely chaotic. My moms in touch meeting was today. So I was all set to go and then as I dropped Nick off at school I remembered that he had a field trip today. It had completely slipped my mind. The trip was already paid for...but I was supposed to send money because they were going to some cafe for lunch. Darn! So I had to haul butt to the ATM and get some cash and then fly back to his school to give him the money before the buses left. So I missed my prayer time with my MIT gals. Bummer!
I did some cleaning and then ran to Old Navy. Chris called from work and said a co-worker told him they were having a sale where things were 97cents. So I headed up there to check out the deals. It was pretty well picked over...but I did get all three of my boys navy blue sweatshirts. You can never have enough sweatshirts.

Tonight is the big high school homecoming game. Ben is thrilled because he likes to watch the sports cars drive around the track with the homecoming court on them. Also the floats are cool too. Lauren and the other varsity cheerleaders ride in the back of a decorated pickup truck. The boys think this is beyond cool. They ride around waving and throwing footballs and candy to the crowd. We will sit on the front row to get good pictures. She is also taking part in one of the teachers retirement awards. It is a surprise to the man. She will be handing him and his family flowers and then escorting them off the field. It is all very exciting. Lauren and some other girls decorated their car windows and tied blue and white(school colors) ribbons to everyones car anntenae. We (except Chris) are all wearing Braves(school mascot) buttons and tatoos. I will make sure to get lots of pictures. Kai will be going us this evening and then spending the night afterward. I planned on Kristian coming too....but she is spending the night with her second favorite aunt and uncle(my sisters ex's family).

Tomorrow morning we will be up and out early for another soccer game. And then the youth group is having a get together on one of the families farm out in NC. They are cooking out , having a bonfire and hayride. It is from 2pm-10pm. Nick and Lauren are very excited. We need to find something for Ben to do. And then we can be alooooone. :0)

Hope you guys have a great weekend.

Love the template! You may see that on the church blog later today. We would love to have Ben for the afternoon, however, we have a thing to attend with the Kerwins today ... I'm sorry. It's been a long time since we got some time with Ben ... we miss him.

Great fall template!! I usually read on bloglines, so I hadn't noticed it. Very fun.
