October

How did we get to the middle of October already? Halloween is almost a week away. Big game season opens this weekend. I hate to even say this but at this rate it will be Christmas soon. Ugh.

So if you are wondering what exciting things we've been up to that keeps us so busy I don't have an answer. SSDD.

Dear Husband has spent the last two weeks in Idaho working on a project at a mine. He has canceled two hunting trips the past two weekends for various reasons but he will be gone this weekend and part of next week.

The girls and I went spent the first weekend in October at Grandpa and Grandma's and we'll be headed there on Thursday for another visit. It seems that is what we do during hunting season.

The weather has been beautiful so we floated the river a couple weekends ago. Last weekend we started to cut down some of our dead trees. We cut one trailer load of dead branches and you can't even tell we did anything. It's going to be a bigger project than we thought.

The girls started music lessons again so that keeps us busy. So far there has only been two school activities; open house and the annual fund raiser dinner.

Princess loves kindergarten. She told me Mrs. B is the best teacher in the entire world. I reminded her that she said Mrs. F was the best teacher in the entire world last year and she said they both were. Princess lost her 7th tooth last week so she only has one more tooth to lose and she'll be done for a while....and tooth number 8 is very loose.

Flower is, well, Flower. Princess was being a bit sassy the other night as we were getting ready for bed so I told Princess she was not allowed to talk until she could do so nicely. Flower, in a very serious manner, looked at me and said "Princess can't talk because you said so and you our mama." I told her she was correct. Flower looked downstairs into the living room where DH was watching TV. She pointed to DH and said, "That guy our daddy." Again, I told her she was correct. She looked down at DH again and said, "I like him." Me too pretty girl, me too!
