Birthdays, Thanksgiving and broken pipes







So we started Wednesday off with Dons birthday. He turned the big 29! The boys didn't have school, I didn't have to work but of course Don did until 5pm. So we met him in Moses so we could take him out for dinner, he picked Pizza Hut over everything in Moses, he said its because he knew the boys would like it aaah so sweet. Anyway, had good food, came home put the boys in bed. We woke up and it was Thanksgiving. The boys called all their grandparents and we started cooking. My mom and john came over to put the turkey. My cousin Vickie and her girls along with her man Jeff came over and we ate and ate and ate. It was alot of fun!! But of course before dinner Patrick came running up and said "there is water everywhere" never a good sign when there are 8 kids downstairs and water. Don went running down there and the kids had thrown a innertube and burst a pipe. Oh yes, a pipe! So I grabbed towels, my mom grabbed a garbage can and Don turned off the water. Well nothing is open since its Thanksgiving, so Don called the owner of the hardware store and he sent his son down and opened it so Don could get the parts to fix it. SO thankful for a small town and nice people!! Got it all fix'd and ate. I went down during work yesterday and paid for the parts. AAHH never a dull moment in our house lol! I worked all day yesterday, and I mean all day from 730-530. Mom had the boys so they wouldn't have to sit in the daycare all day long. They of course had fun with grandma. She is going to bring them home today. Not much on the agenda today. Don is working and I'm done with all the housework wootwoot!!

Tuesday!

Yes, I know its been forever! I really have not felt like blogging lately. I've been crazy busy at work, kids have been sick, we've been sick, everyone and their mama has been sick lol! Its been really cold too, when I go to work its been 22 outside. Way too cold for me.

Some amazing praise is little baby Noah is in remission! PTL! I am so happy for everyone down there, what a huge relief it is.

Tomorrow is my sweeties birthday, the big 29! We are going to take him out for dinner, I have NO clue what to get him. Josh wants to get him a new chair lol probably so he can sit in it!

So at school Josh made a thankful turkey and they were cutting out pictures of what he was thankful for, well Josh put a picture of a black football player lol! Not a house or his dog, it was really cute!

Don sold his motorcycle last week. That is a huge weight lifted off our shoulders. The money we get to pocket were going to spend for Christmas. On the 5th Don and I are going to Spokane for the night to do all our shopping. I am so excited!!

Patrick and Josh both had ear infections last week, they are much better. I am fighting something, I've been so drained the last few days, but doing pretty good. I'm getting ready to go to bed in a few minutes! I dont work tomorrow or thursday, but all day on Friday, no shopping for me this year =(

Tara and the girls came over this last weekend. It was fun. We really didn't do anything except hang out, which was great! We did watch the "Survivor Series" for WWE, we ordered it on pay per view. It rocked. John Cena is BACK and he WON! Woot woot!!

Anyway, I'm off to bed so thats it for my update so far!!
