Are you there Bloggers? It's me, Amy...

Thank God it's Friday, and that this week is O-V-E-R!!! -It was a stressful week at home. Looking forward to a fun weekend! -I am being audited for child care expenses in 2018--I'm not the only one that thinks we pay too much money in child care! LOL...I submitted my receipts online (they are catching up with the times and it's great!) and turns out I actually underclaimed by a few hundred dollars haha. -Tonight is calm, just hanging at home with the kids. -Saturday I have an eyelash appointment at 2:00, and then we have a sitter coming at 6:00 so we can go to a Wine & Cheese night up the road at our friends house. -Sunday is a day of rest until the evening when Shan comes over and we head into town to go to the Trailer Park Boys Christmas at the NAC (I bought Tyler and I tickets as an early Christmas gift). We are sitting pretty close, so I hope we don't get any of their nasty sweat on us lol -Monday I am off since the TPB thing only starts at 8PM, I didn...

Halloween, in its typical fashion was cold, damp and gloomy. The night before halloween, we carved our pumpkins. This year was the first we just threw out the seeds. We always clean and bake them and no one even eats them, so I saved myself the heartache this year. I worked from home the day of Halloween, and it was great! I had time to get the cups and plates and stuff set out and tidy up a bit. It was a wet halloween, but we just put rain gear and warm clothes under the kids costumes, and they had a great time collecting candy. I walked with them to a few houses and then went home to order pizza and have a glass of wine, and hand out candy to the EIGHT kids we got lol. The kids loaded into the back of my SUV with an adult and they drove from house to house, hopping out at each driveway. It seemed to work well. November 1 (Friday) was picture retake day for Garett (he was sick on picture day), and also preschool picture day- I can't wait to see their photos :)...
