Monday, December 1

Some days you just need a Diet Coke! Today, I needed a few!! We had lunch at mom's before bowling, went to bowling, and bowled the slowest team on our league. We left around 3:45 and had a plan for mom to help Amie by taking Quinn to gymnastics. Amie texted and said Quinn's gymnastics clothes were in her car so we ran to her work and got them. Mom rode with me to bowling so I ran her home then hit the road in just enough time to get Nick to piano. However, we had a snag. When I was at Costco to get gas, mom called and said her purse was in my van! I waited at Quinn's daycare for mom to come get her purse but by the time I got out of there, I ended up being 15 minutes late to take Nick. Grrr! After all of that craziness, I cracked open a DC and sat back for a second. :)

My sweet little Zacky won't go to nursery by himself. This is a new thing as he's always loved nursery. I sat in there with him for a little while, until he was comfortable, then went to Relief Society. Tonight, we had dinner at Dave & Viv's and Ryan & Ashley were there. Ricki and Henry had fun rolling around on the floor together.

Today was a hard day. Amie had to go to her old house and get the remaining belongings that Chad so lovingly (not) left scattered all around. She called me upset so I ran over there and helped box things up for a couple of hours. When I got home, everyone was hungry. We had promised to take the kids to the "updated Wendy's" so we loaded up and went. I had a million coupons so we tried to use them at the register. After 4 people tried to assist in taking our order, everything got screwed up and the manager said I only owed him $6.15. We all got a really nice dinner for six bucks! It was awesome!!

While everyone was out doing their Black Friday shopping, the kids and I mostly stayed in. I did go run a few Scentsy errands and did a quick return at Hobby Lobby but otherwise, we were home. We should have got Christmas out but it didn't happen. The only thing I did was turn around my Give Thanks sign to say Jingle Bells.

Happy Thanksgiving! We had a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner at my parent's house. I asked dad to snap a couple pictures of my family for Christmas cards this year. This was the best one. :) After dinner and dessert, mom pulled out our annual gingerbread houses and the kids had a blast making them. I just love our family traditions!

My day started out better than it ended. The top picture is at Nick's school. I went to help out with their Native American Pow-Wow. It was fun to help the kids learn about the Southeast Plains Indians, have them try fry-bread, and play an Indian game with them. This afternoon, I went to my Endodontist appointment. On the left side of the screen is a tooth with a normal root canal. The one on the right is a root canal on my very back upper tooth. The little white lines you can see protruding from the root are drill bits left in my tooth by the dentist that did my original root canal! You can't see it on this shot but the area above my tooth is filled with fluid and is beginning to erode the top of my tooth and bottom of my jaw bone. If I had left it much longer, I would have ended up having to have this tooth pulled. I have a root canal scheduled for Tuesday. Joy!
