A Really Good Weekend

Posted on by

I spent lots of time preparing for last week and weekend… not only was it Halloween, but our little man turned 4.

And, as usual, the Halloween crafts didn’t get done, but I did get goody bags finished the night before the school party.

I always intended on posting a tutorial for a last-minute batcave made from store-bought wall decorations, dollar store garbage bags and duct tape… but unfortunately it was far too last-minute. I was busy writing a food article for Halloween.

On Halloween, Abby played her last soccer game (the team’s record 6-1-1)…

… then we headed out for some trick-or-treating with friends.

Like I said, a really good weekend. I hope all of you out there had one too.

A Weekend of Firsts

My first born…

…celebrated her First Communion. Walking down the aisle with her, seeing her wear communion veil I wore, I thought, this isn’t the first time you were all dressed up in this church.

We attended our first craft show together, a first of many mother-daughter crafty outings I hope.

With Laura (Bugawumps.blogspot.com)

And she played in her first soccer game.

Am I a soccer mom yet? I think not. It was the first time I screamed out loud, “GO, ABBY! RUN!!! Get the BALL!!” but not the first time I’ve cheered her on. That’s every day: when she leaves the car (Bye, Mom!) and runs off to school, when she’s working really hard on her homework or a project, when she’s sitting with her little brother and reading a book to him, when she tells me a funny joke and she’s messing around with her dad. Go, Abby!
