It's been awfully quiet on this blog lately due to me finally having some down time!  These past two weeks have still been pretty busy, but it's been such a great feeling to not have to pack a bag and leave town right after work on Friday! Sometimes ... there's no place like home! 

Here's a recap of what I've been up to.

Last Friday, I had a day off work and stayed in my pj's until 10!  Awesome!  Then, Chrissy and I had a much needed lunch and shopping date.  Even though we work at the same school, I feel like I NEVER see her!  This gave us time to catch up with life. 

Saturday was "Baby Shower" day for Melissa (and Jake).  It's so hard to believe that Kaz's arrival is approaching so quickly! Spending the day celebrating Kaz was wonderful. Here's a few pics from the shower.

My Mom and I spent most of the day in Tilton with Laury.  We made a visit to see Grandma Smiley in the nursing home. She's soooo sweet, and I enjoy every minute I get to see her. As always, time spent with Laury was precious.  I treasure our moments together! 

This past week was CRAZY at school!  Kinders are VERY excited about Halloween ... especially when it doubles with "Red Ribbon Week" and we have crazy dress up days each day.  How fun was it to wear costumes to school on Thursday.  The Kinder team dressed up as Minions and the kiddos LOVED it!

This is a true story:

 

This weekend was quiet and spent at home.  Much, much needed!  I did enjoy some time with the nephews as well. Quality time watching Hocus Pocus and making the infamous "cookie monster".

Only 3 more weeks until Tobejonesy day! 

Next weekend, Mom and I are headed to STL to help with finishing touches for the wedding!  Very exciting times to come!  

Happy November!
