Let The Santa Threats Begin
In an hour our Thanksgiving break starts.By break, I mean the kids are off school and all activities until next Monday and I don't have to shower until after 4pm.Woo hoo!It also means that candied yams, pumpkin pie, and rolls will be consumed like it's my last feast on earth.Truly, is there not a better night for a meal all year, than on Thanksgiving?!I think not.And, as for that Black Friday shopping craze...not my thing.I mean, you still need money to participate.Oh and the crowds, no thanks.I like shopping online.No waiting, and getting frustrated driving all that way a

Slumber(less) Party
So my oldest turned eleven and talked me into a slumber party.I've been promising my hubby for years now that we're going to tone down the birthday parties.I love a good jumpy house, pinata, huge crowd type of kid's party.That's what i'm good at.Adult parties, forget about it...no clue what to do.So this year we had 8 tweens for a sleepover and they are not the jumpy house, pinata type. Pre-teens for goodness sake...they want music, food (OH they can EAT!), random items...i'll get back to that.So my daughter gives me little on the "plan" and I don't work well without one.
