the month of october was intense at our home. i don't like running around, having so much to do, day after day. my favorite days are the ones where i have nowhere to go, nothing pressing to do, and i can just do regular chores around the house and not feel rushed or stressed about anything. today is one of those days!!! and i'm feeling so good about it.
october was filled with good things- but so many of them! will and i went to the oregon coast for a week. when we came home it was time to get serious about our halloween parties that we throw every year. they are a ridiculous amount of work. we're thinking of taking next year off. we had marte come stay with us for 10 days. (another exchange student from norway that attends herriman high.) and everyday preston and spencer spend at least 3 hours after school at rehearsal for the musical that is coming up this month. preston is really feeling it the worst. he is trying to get his college applications filled out, spend all of his time at play practice, work at his job, keep up with his current classes, and somehow have a social life. he is struggling! and honestly- i struggle watching him do it.
november brings more good things. will has to travel, a LOT. he goes to new york, ohio, and boise several times. the boys have their play performances. we'll go to phoenix for thanksgiving. it's will's birthday. it will be a good month.
june really likes the teletubbies and wanted to be them with the boys. preston was so against it, but he eventually caved and gave in to her. what a good host brother!
marte, june and jenny. all from norway attending herriman high. they are good friends.
we think we had about 55 kids here that night. it was absolute chaos. but they had fun.
