Finally Friday

Let me apologize in advance for any bad grammar/punctuation that might appear in this post. I am fearfully gazing at my drop ceiling tiles in my office at work, awaiting the moment when the gopher that has been scurrying back and forth, falls through and lands on my desk... at which point I will let out a shrilling scream, and run down the hallway.

Okay, it's been a long week, so I'm behind on my posting! We had a great Halloween! Friday night we took Jaxson to the trunk-or-treat at North Valley. I, personally, had never been to a trunk-or-treat before, but it was great! We headed home about 7:30, handed out candy some trick-or-treaters and study, study, study...














Saturday, I took my test (that's another story), and headed to meet the girls for a fun-filled day in the woods at Oak Mountain. We had lots of fun hiking and being chased by wild bears. Okay, totally kidding about the bears, but we did have lots of fun.




















Afterwards, we discovered a great new store, Garden Ridge, where we found lots of bargains. I must say, I will definitely be making this a regular stop. We made one final stop at Hamburger Heaven before returning home from our retreat.

Jax wasn't feeling too well, so I stayed home with him while Eric went to Kristi's church to hear a comedian that was performing.

Sunday marked the beginning of a long week of sickness. It started shortly after church. We grabbed lunch and took our naps. Then, blah. That's all I can say about it, really. Anyway, I think we're back on track!

This weekend might be equally as busy. Tonight, I'll be scrapbooking. Tomorrow, we're going to Christmas Village (after class of course).

Monday, I have my first official meeting for nursing school! I get fitted for uniforms, so we'll see how it all goes! It feels good to be following God's plan for my life! A little scary at times, but good, nonetheless!

There is a Garden Ridge near my parents house in Texas and, I'm not kidding, I can't even go in there with my mom for fear of never coming back out!
