I am trying to get better about blogging but we have been so busy so let me catch everyone up to date!!!! We had our fall festival at Britt's school this month and had a lot of fun! The girls loved it and we had a great turn out. Our neighbor was dressed up for the spook house which they did a great job on but she was freaking Kiley out because she didn't know who it was - lol. They rode a horse for the first time and they both loved it! The girls were worn out afterwards!!! The next day we had a birthday party for one of our friends in the neighborhood who also happens to be in Britt's class. We had a great time and I got to meet a few other Mom's who have kids in B's class.
Kiley started a new Preschool (well new for her but old for us) - she is at Plano West - Yep I am always asked if I am crazy but how can I make the drive for 2 years with Brittany to give her the best start and not do it for Kiley!! She loves her teacher as we knew she would. She only goes two days a week and I get to have breakfast with a close friend next week so very excited about that!!!
I had a long adoption event last Sat where we didn't adopt one dog but we all have a blast at adoptions so all is good. We went over to some friend's the next day for the game and thank goodness our boys won! I say this esp because Eric is quite the Bucc's fan so that was a sweet win!! We always have a great time with this group and the girls love them!!!
Tonight we took the girls to a local festival at one of the churches and they had a lot of fun! We ran into some friends and the girls got to meet some fireman who dressed up for them and turned on the lights. Kiley was going to do it until she saw how BIG the firetruck was and how high it was for the front seat - lol.
Mike's new job is going great - thank goodness. He is ready to finally settle in somewhere for awhile.
This Friday is Brittany's first field trip! She is so excited to ride the bus for the first time ever - we will be heading to the pumpkin patch! Kiley and I are going but we aren't chaperoning and a few other Mom's are going so it should be lots of fun. Then of course we will trick or treat around here on Friday!!! I am co-hosting a bridal shower on Sat and the girls have a birthday party then we have dinner with some friends that night. Brittany's party is on the 8th and she is so excited! It should be an awesome party - most of her old Preschool friends should be here as well as a few from Kinder. I am brave - we are having it here! I will probably need some sanity afterthat so I may head to a MNO on Sunday - ha! We are busy but having a great time with the girls.

Where to start
It has been awhile since my last update. We have been so busy that time is escaping me. I will try to sum up what everyone has been doing and I will do better at updating!!
Kiley has been doing OK at Preschool but is having major separation anxiety from me so it makes it so hard for me to take her to school. She cries and wants to come home. We are checking into a couple of Church Preschools and are on their waiting list. I will pull her out if it gets too unbearable. Preschool isn't required and she will be in Kinder before I know it. My sweet baby is 4 today and I can't believe how fast it went. She brings such love and laughter to my life and I am so thankful for her everyday!! Happy Birthday Kiley Bear!!!!! We had a small get together for her today and she had so much fun.
Brittany just loves, loves Kindergarten and already has a boyfriend *sigh*. She hangs out with the boys more than girls but she does get it honestly because I was the same way. She is very girly though and I was a tomboy so we do differ there. Otherwise, Brittany is such a mini me in every sense of the word but I adore her and her love of life. She loves art and learning. She is doing so well in school and we are SO proud of her...she makes me proud everyday. We are done with Cheerleading for the season. There are playoff games but she cheered her last game yesterday! the Coyotes won their first game too! The little boys are so cute. She wants to try soccer again in the Spring so we will see how that goes. Her birthday and party are next month and she is very excited!
Michael starts a new job on Monday - sales was not for him but he has a great opportunity with another company so wish him luck.
Now me - well, I am so freakin busy that I don't know which way is up sometimes...lol. My class is going well. I still volunteer with the Humane Society and that keeps me pretty busy and I have taken on a new duty with them. We are still taking a break from fostering because I just don't have the time. I also have started volunteering with Heroes for Children one day a week in the office. I am also on the HFC Friends group. A woman's auxillary group that does different things throughout the year for HFC. I am a Captain in one of the groups so I will coordinate my team - shopping, wrapping, delivering - that sort of thing. I am having fun planning a wedding shower and bachelorette party for the wedding I am Matron of Honor in in January! I try to squeeze everything else in when I can. I try to have lunch with friends once a month as well. I am loving life and my family so all is good. I think that catches everyone up until now but I promise I will get better at updating!!!
