The Holiday season is officially upon us. The day of Trick or Treats is here.
The pumpkins are carved and sitting on the doorstep. The costumes are ready and the kids are excited for the night to begin.
If there is anything that makes me feel young it is the holidays. The holidays feel me with excitement, creativity, and hope.
Basically, in my opinion there is nothing better than the holidays.
Yes, in this particular post I am choosing to ignore the stress that often accompanies the holidays. What stress?
Last week was a very busy week. Tuesday night was the pinewood derby.
H. was a little intense when it came to building and constructing his car. He spent weeks researching learning all the tricks and tips.
He grew increasingly impatient whenever Brent tried to interfere during the construction phase.
The night of the actual competition his mom could see the look of intensity and competition written all over his face. Even as he casually looked over the competition.
In the end all of his hard work and completive nature resulted in a car that he was proud of.
Brent and I did the happy dance that there is only two more years of pinewood derby in this household.
Wednesday night A. had is first Junior High Orchestra concert. I decided to forego a video clip for this event. Not sure there is anything like a Junior High Orchestra concert. However, A. is loving it and is looking forward to many more concerts. Lucky Us!
Thursday night was of course school. The weeks until the end are speedily approaching. Somedays I'm excited and other days scared to death thinking what comes next. Have I ever mentioned how much I hate change.
Friday night was the ward Halloween party. The Young Men and Young Women were in charge of the activity. It was a crazy, chaotic, and fun night. I'm so lucky to work with great people who make my life easier.
Today is Halloween! Again.. I'm so excited for this time of year. Lots to look forward to and lots to be thankful for.
Have a Happy Halloween everyone.
