Greetings - catch up time

Hello! Just to let you know - FIL's surgery went well. He was home the same night. Surgery #2 is October 15.

I went to a crop a week ago last Friday and I got 10 - yes, 10 - layouts done in the 6 hours I was there. That HAS to be a record for me.... It was nice to get to get some scrapping done.


Last Sunday, we went to Effigy Mounds National Monument. It was a GORGEOUS day and the park was very pretty! The hike we took was partially along the Mississippi River - wonderful view!!!!! The kids had fun and seemed to enjoy it.



Then, in my DH's "wisdom" (are you detecting the sarcasm?!) he thought I would enjoy the Laura Ingalls Wilder Museum in Burr Oak. OMG - that was a waste of time. We were very disappointed in our "tour" and the museum. The highlight of that stop was seeing a bald eagle on our way out of town. So - my recommendation is, don't go out of your way for that stop.



It was a long, stressful week at work. I was SO happy to see Friday come!!!!!!




Ballet week #2 was today for DD. She loves it and thinks she is the world's greatest dancer. Those little girls are all adorable.





DS hasn't decided if he wants to take a date to homecoming. I have reminded him it's just a couple of weeks away and that decision needs to be made - SOON!!!!!!!!!! So, we'll see what happens with that. (this is him trying to show us his "buff edge" last Sunday)






Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

This picture really does not do the sunset that I saw that evening justice - the sky absolutely glowed red and orange! It was SPECTACULAR!!!!!!!!
