Don't Forget

I take a lot of photos but there are many everyday occurrences that don't have a photo.  It's important to remember some of the things going on in our lives that sometimes get overlooked as I document because there isn't a photo.

Conferences:  This last week was conference week.  No report cards are handed out at this conference, thank goodness, but it always adds more work.  Lots of planning, preparing, organizing, etc.  It was a fast, but exhausting week.

Organizing:  I am working on organizing and cleaning out some tubs that I've had full of boys clothes, as well as the spare bedroom closet.  I've taken a few loads to the Goodwill and have another load waiting to go.  I am hoping to move to the bonus room closets next.

Creating:  Chris is moving into an office downstairs at work.  He has been working this week on building his desk.  It's a typical Chris creation and looks pretty cool.  I'll have to get him to send me a picture of the finished product.  He is also putting barn wood up on one wall in his new office.  I'm curious to see what the office will look like when he is done.

Property:  We are in the process of getting a power box put in out at the new property and will work with the neighbor to get power from across the road and then to a temporary power pole.  Baby steps.

Huskies:  As always, we have been carefully following the Huskies and this year they are 8-0 so far. It's the best start to a season in many, many years.  They are fun to watch (of course!) and are ranked #4 in the nation.  Let's hope they can keep it up!

Reading:  Colson has been getting better at his reading on a daily basis.  He is picking up on new words quickly and is independently reading simple books.  It's exciting to watch and listen to him! Cannon just finished Rump, Red, and Jack, chapter books about the "true story" of these fairy tale characters.  He enjoyed them all!

Enjoying every moment!
