Finally...new beds

for the boys' room. The boys have been sleeping on air mattresses and couches since they left for college. We finally broke down and bought new beds and bedding!


Kaitlin loves helping her dad put together things, so they had fun this morning.

Kaleb will be home early this evening for Thanksgiving week. He originally planned on coming Tuesday afternoon after work, but managed to get Monday and Tuesday off too.

Brandon will be here sometime on Wednesday. He's working on a big project at work, and it just depends on when they get it done. Hopefully he'll be here Wednesday afternoon.

My best friend, Melody, took me to the .38 Special concert Friday night at Hartman Arena.

We danced the night away and had a great time. It was pretty late when we got home, so she crashed at our house before heading home yesterday morning.

Yesterday was another busy day for us. We grabbed breakfast at McDonald's drive-thru and then headed out to visit mom. She was in a good mood and we had a really good visit. We went to Target to pick up a few necessities, and it was very crowded. People are already out in droves Christmas shopping! It was the same story at Sam's. Fortunately we only picked up a few things there, and were then on our way to Dillons. Yes, they were packed with everyone out shopping for Thanksgiving dinner - just like us! $120 later (just @ Dillons) we made it home. Late in the afternoon we met our friends Cindy and Jerry at El Rodeo for dinner. We had a good visit, and then came home and crashed. I was pretty tired.

Today is a typical Sunday. Corby fixed egg & cheese bagels for breakfast, read the paper, clipped coupons and got laundry started. Now it's time for Chief's FOOTBALL! They're at home against the Arizona Cardinals. C'mon Chiefs. Let's win this thing!

First Day of School

It's tradition at my house to take a "first day of school" picture. The kids get less and less thrilled every year, but I still do it. Here are the twins before they left for their first day of senior year: Kind of funny that they both wore gray - unplanned of course! I think Kaitlin is putting in her plug for the college she'd like to go to. They had a good day. Found out that at 1800 students, Heights is over their limit by 400 students!!! OMG! I'm not sure what the answer is, but it is WAY TOO CROWDED! I think the northeast side of town needs a new high school. Something needs to be done! Just finished my Nora Roberts book, and have started New Moon, the second book in Stephenie Meyer's vampire series. Kaitlin took Abby to the vet yesterday to get her last distemper shot and a rabies shot. The vet told her that she comes from a line of very strong / physically superior cats. I knew there was some reason that she climbs EVERYWHERE in the house, including u...
