Just Another Week in Paradise

This week has been great. The kids finally went back to school. WOOHOO!! Whoever thought it was a good idea to give the kids a 5 day weekend, should be taken out into a dark alley and beaten.

Shelby’s field trip on Wednesday was a lot of fun.

Friday night, we took the kids to the schools Halloween Carnival. They were so cute in their costumes. The girls from my work volunteered at the carnival and really had a good time. My kids thought it was really cool to get to see them. I don’t know why they’re fascinated by these girls, but they are.

Today, we had a play date with a couple of their friends. We made Haunted Mansions out of graham crackers. Morgan’s was definitely a little scary. They had fun though and that’s all that matters.

My funny thing for the day. A while back I did a blog on my MySpace that was about things I never thought I’d say until I became a mom. Yesterday, Chris said the granddaddy of them all. He was using some nasal spray in the bathroom and I was laying on the bed. He came walking out of the bathroom mumbling something about the g-dang kids, yanked open the door and yelled for the kids to come here. When they got there, he held up the nasal spray and said, “Which one of you stuck this up your butt?” I busted up laughing and he turns to me and goes “smell this”. I said, “I’m not smelling that.” He said “I swear it smells like butt. Preston did you stick this up your butt?” At this point I was in tears and he was pissed. Finally after I regained the ability to talk I said, “Bet you NEVER thought you’d hear yourself ask that question.” He just busted up laughing and said, “that’s disgusting”. Three guesses who did it!
