The little things

I know I need to blog more. I forget to write down the little things. I feel I can only blog when something happens. So here are some things I’ve missed in the last month…

Swine flu at my house, pretty sure everyone had it- Lilli was actually tested for it (positive of course) ( My anxiety and panic attacks cropped up again as a result of worrying about all this but that is another story!)

Emma made the HIGH honor roll at school! (She was excited!)

We got to meet Mark Walton (A Disney Animator and the voice of Rhino in the movie bolt!) He is a friend of a friend and came to Lars class to talk to his 3D animation class about…animation ;~) Oscar was so excited the night before we met him that he could hardly sleep. lol

I had a Jewelry party at my house, even though I really don’t wear jewelry (my dear friends were mercilessly making fun of me for this!) But to help an old friend I will do many things.

Thought about, and then discarded, the idea of taking a vacation to Cali for Thanksgiving and ditching out on the big family thing. BUT since ALL my siblings will actually be in town for Thanksgiving we decided to stay here in the cold.

Having the desire to move again (It is just a part of who I am, I long for a new adventure every couple years!) I’d love to move somewhere totally new. One of my favorite things to do it go online to www.findyourspot.com and look at different places to live in the US. Check it out, it is a fun website. Beyond the US we would love to live in Denmark for a few years to give the kids that experience, get to their roots, get to know family that is there, and learn the language. It is a dream, but hopefully we’ll at least get to visit someday. (If we quit spending all the money we don’t have on Disneyland/world! haha)

I’ve gone on several fun GNO’s with my gal pals! Love those ladies! Looking forward to another girls night away sometime in the future! (A couple of days away from the family, giving the daddies quality bonding time with the kids!!!, and doing nothing but shopping, talking, and eating with some of my best friends!) Until then a night at the movies, or bakery, is awesome too!

We sold 2 of our cars and got a new, to us, Chevy Tahoe! LOVE IT! And it will pull the tent trailer so much better than our Trooper did!

I have been enjoying the cool fall weather, crunchy leaves on the ground, and plenty of hot chocolate! I also have enjoyed baking pumpkin treats galore as well as gingersnaps to go with the hot chocolate! LOVE FALL!

Lars and I celebrated our 13th anniversary!! Sounds so long, but has gone by so fast!

I said I would blog about my love of fall sometime but I think I’ll need a whole post just for that! :-D

So those are the little things that have been happening in our lives! Lots of adventures, lots of drama, lots of fun!
