Under the weather

Okay, I am making myself do a quick post. Been busy here, and now I am sick. Did not do much yesterday except rest, so I could take the girls out for Halloween. I didn't even exercise! I felt guilty all day, even though I could hardly breathe and my head pounded with every step. I am still feeling pretty bad today, but a little better. I think I may try and exercise today. We have a busy weekend and I don't want to miss too many days. Ugh....I just want to go back to bed!

So, some good news. My step-daughter, Maddie, tried out and got accepted into honor band! She has only been playing the flute for 2 months! She is very excited, and we are very proud of her. She has been practicing everyday, and her hard work payed off! She sees this, and it is a wonderful lesson for her. And a first, as well. Lets hope this positive behavior catches!

  Becca was a rainbow fairy princess riding a flying unicorn!

Maddie was a masquerade witchy ballerina 

So cute and pretty!

And of course last night was Halloween! I love the day after, seeing all the pictures of friends kids all dressed up! So fun! My girls were cute and got a TON of candy! Really I don't know how, we only went down a few streets because we were trick-or-treating between rain spurts, but they still got a ton! I even woke up to a sweet thank you letter from Maddie! Even with not feeling well, it was a GREAT Halloween!!

I hope it was a fun and safe evening for all of you, friends! Now to get ready for an awesome Thanksgiving trip!

  1. That must have been a wonderful surprise to find a thank you note from Maddie. It sounds like she is taking some big steps in the right direction thanks to the loving parents she has. Your girls are so pretty and classy for Halloween.

  2. Thanks Trish! It made me tear up. It was genuine and heartfelt, and that means so much to me! Thanks for the compliment about my girls' costumes! It is very important to me to instill in them beauty without revealing clothing or tons of make-up. Means alot to hear that, thank you.
