Monday, November 6 - Kendra had an MRI this morning to check the anatomy of her ears. She did great...once the IV was in her arm. She had a hard time with the needle of the IV. It was quick and easy otherwise and I had her back to school by lunchtime. We'll get the results in a week or two.
Tuesday, November 7 - Today was the ACT test day for high school Juniors so the Sophomores and Seniors had the day off. I used to take the kids to Sweet Tomatoes for lunch a ton when they were kids so for nostalgia sake, we went to Dollie's for lunch. It was so good and fun to be there with the kids. I also dragged them grocery shopping so it was an expensive day out. :)
Wednesday, November 8 - I have had so much to do to get ready to leave town so getting my tags done was a huge check mark on my to-do list! I only did embroidered tags for this year so each person will get three different tags. I like how they turned out and they have been fun to do.
Thursday, November 9 - Another big thing on my to-do list this week was doing this custom cookie order for the Mountain Ridge High School Swim Team. Their closing banquet is tomorrow so Marisa "hired" me to make cookies. I got them all baked earlier this week, froze them, then took them out this morning so I could start decorating tonight. It is a big task but I do enjoy doing it.
Friday, November 10 - Today was Blackridge's Veteran's Day Program. They always do such a wonderful job. I need to remember to bring tissues each year because it is a tear jerker! Thank you to all of the Veteran's that make this land free! I finished the swim team cookies tonight. Word from Marisa was that they loved them! This is my first official order that I actually made money so yay cookie business!
Saturday, November 11 - Simon and I flew out to Florida first thing this morning. We did have a short layover in Denver but I much prefer that to catching the red eye and flying through the night. When we got here, we rented a Kia at the airport and met up with Kenny, Katie, and the kids. We went to dinner at one of my favorite Florida places, Cheddars. The food was good but the company was even better!
Sunday, November 12 - This trip is for Simon & I to celebrate our 20th anniversary. One of the highlights that we have been looking so forward to is the Tampa Bay Buccaneers game. They did so many cool tributes because of Veteran's Day. They did a 3 helicopter fly-by and parachuters landed on the field. The Buccaneers played the Tennessee Titans and it was so fun because the Bucs played so well! They won 20-6 and the energy in that stadium was contagious! We loved every moment of being at the game and it only made it better that we were able to go with Kenny & Katie. They have to work tomorrow and we are leaving during the day so we had to say goodbye tonight. It is hard every single time but we are so glad that we got to spend this time together with them.
