Week in review

We have had such a busy week! I thought I'd share a few highlights.
First, let me say that I never want to be alone in this world(without my Brent). He's almost home from Cedar City...not a moment too soon! I rely on him so much for support. Not only is he a great dad but it is no fun watching the news without him.(our fav pastime is news heckling) So that being said, this week was chaos and mayhem.
I had to cram all of my work in to two days. I don't know how mom's do it...I mean work full-time and manage the house. I only work part-time, at home, with a flexible schedule and I am still 3 weeks behind. One of my favorite sayings is "I am so far behind, I thought I was is first place."
Tyler had a field trip to Cornbelly's Maze. I took the opportunity to take all the kids with me. We had a blast! I had never been there, it is a little pricey but well worth the $3 entrance fee with field trips. (normally $10.50 per adult) We spent 4 hours playing. The big kids went through the "David Archuletta" corn maze and stood on the microphone. I guess that is cool. They have a little sand box-like area filled with dried corn. Tyler and Jason had so much fun until Jason wouldn't stop putting corn in his mouth. It really grossed me out when Jared was in there walking around in his socks. I don't like to touch his socks, let alone put them in my mouth! We all picked out pumpkins. Tyler decided he wanted the smallest green one with a stem that he could find. As you can imagine, they are rare. We did finally find one, it looked like a little maraca.
Our busy football practice week ended with a pep-rally earlier tonight. Katelyn was head cheerleader and she was on top of the pyramid. I was so proud. Not even 45 degree weather with a stiff wind would have kept me away. (I just realized that you can't hear the sarcasm in my typing) :) Then it was on to the Riverton High football game, they lost to Bingam 48-21. Let's hope our team is a little better tomorrow. Did I mention the big game is tomorrow?
We went to dinner with my mother-in-law 2 times this week. It was a lot of fun. My kids don't get to see her as often as we would like, so it is great to get together. Thanks Sandy! We were at Winger's and had a cute little waitress. Jason fell in love with her. One time he was watching her walk away when all of the sudden he stuck his hand to his mouth and blew her a kiss. It was crazy because Tyler didn't start doing that until he was two. :) It is seriously bred in them to be attracted to girls! Jared would try to touch the waitress as she would walk by, and it just so happened that his little hand was butt height. We apologized many times for him. After he was about three, he liked cars more than girls. I am still waiting for that to happen to Tyler.
All-in-all, I'd say we've had a great week. I love the weekends! I hope all my blog friends have a great weekend! Love ya all!
(Oh Yeah, for my neighbor friends, if you haven't seen Jill Bearden's blog, her baby is almost as cute as my kids!)
