The Pearson Project

I was invited to do a step challenge. I have done several of these and never come close to winning. However, today was an awesome day! I ran in the morning then spent my day cleaning the house, doing laundry, etc. I never sat down during the day! I was SO happy when I got the notification that I had won the step challenge! Yay!!

It was an interesting day... I got visiting with Jenni on the phone while Zack was in preschool and lost sight of Ricki for a minute. When I finally found her, I found a lovely piece of artwork on the wall in her room! At least it was pencil and came off really easily! We had fun going and picking Eva up from preschool then having an afternoon play date with her. She and Zack have been friends since the day Eva was born! :)

I went to church volleyball then over to Marisa's to work on crafts later in the evening. Simon texted me around 11:30 to let me know that Kendra was still up (she had missed school because of a stomach bug) and that Zack had just thrown up. Great! We kicked daddy out of bed and sent him downstairs to get some sleep, made a bed on the floor for sister, then Zack and I had a barf party in my bed (I felt fine, he did all the barfing). After about 2:00 am, his tummy settled down and we were able to sleep until morning.

Since I was hanging out all day with sick kiddos, I decided to finish up my Halloween craft (not a moment too soon)! The upper pic is the idea photo, the lower is my finished craft. It was so fun!

Simon joined us this morning at the kids' Halloween parade at school. After the parade, I headed to Kendra's class to do the Halloween party. I am the room mom so this party was lots of stress leading up to it but SO much fun once we were there! In the evening, Simon and I were supposed to go to an adult Halloween party but as we were getting ready to walk out the door, Ricki started throwing up! All over the kitchen floor!! (I was thankful she did it on the tile and not the carpet!) So...I ran my dessert over to the party, said hi to everyone, then came home, jammied up, and watched "Pixels" with my family. It was a nice evening, even though it didn't go the way I wanted it to.

We haven't had any communication with Kenny since he went to rehab 3 weeks ago. Mom, Dad, Grandma Sharon, Grandpa Jim, and Jenni were able to go visit him. He looks SOOOO much better! He's finally put some weight on and looks great!
