Ahhhh....three more hours until FREEDOM!

(Yes, I'm writing this on my lunch break because it's the only free time I've got for now!) We're off school tomorrow and won't return until the 26th. Woooosaahhh!

 

I've been VERY on edge the last couple of hours. I'd assume it's because I know of the freedom that sits so near OR because I've got so many kids telling me "HE BUDGED!" or "SHE STOLE MY MARKER!" or my personal favorite "HE'S LOOKING AT ME!" My personal favorite phrase today has been "I don't want to hear it." 

 

As obnoxious as I find these things, my kiddos are very sweet and they do say some of the funniest/cutest things ever. I've been writing them down to share with Keats (and to keep my sanity) and I'd like to share some with you!

 

"Gahh, my butt keeps pulling my underwear in and it REALLY hurts!"

 

"You have a mean face right now."

 

"Whoa, did I just burp SUNSHINE!?"

 

"My mom looks like a beautiful person. Well, almost."

 

"My boyfriend's mom? I don't know her name. Can't know EVERYONE'S name!"

 

"My dog burps a lot after he eats beef turkey."

 

 

I'll leave you with that for now and since I probably won't write before next Thursday...HAPPY THANKSGIVING! I can't wait to see my family and friends!

TA-DA!

Wasn't that just the best disappearing act you've ever witnessed?!

 

I have no idea why I stopped blogging after the proposal...I mean, I feel like I was busy but then I think back on all of the nights I watched show after show after show on my couch and now I realize that I could have been entertaining all of YOU with my mindless writing. :)

 

Six days before the school year started, I accepted a job at a different (than last year's) school as a childcare director of a wrap-around program (aka I'm a glorified babysitter!). The program is brand new this year and the beginning of school was very stressful for me as I had to build a program from scratch with about six boxes of toys and books. Luckily, people were donating items left and right and I was able to make things happen with what we had!

 

Keaton is still at Left Hand Brewing Co. and is of course still loving it! He and a few fellow Left Hand guys are growing mustaches for the month of November. They've formed a team at Movember.com to raise money for testicular and prostate cancer research and here is Keaton's individual page: http://us.movember.com/mospace/4151781 Check it out and donate if you would like! I know he and the "Milk Stout Mustache" team would appreciate it GREATLY!

Wedding plans are coming along quite nicely. We've already switched venues and we are so in love with this new place! When Mom was out to visit we went there three times in five days! I don't know what I've posted as far as dates, but we're getting married April 6, 2013.

 

Until next time, my friends......and I promise it won't be four months!

 

Also, Keats and I will be back in Iowa November 21-24, so I hope we get to see everyone!
