Done.

#1-Halloween
Halloween is officially over. 

Our Halloween was eventful to say the least.

I helped out at Jack's Kindergarten Party, and was in charge of doughnuts on a string. 

 
Brooke loved going to school for the day!

 Ivy had a great time running out the door every time Trick-or-Treaters came. 


 I had promised the kids those cool flashlights from Arctic Circle, and I had a little run in with the Drive Thru while picking dinner up.  
Ouch. I sobbed.  I have never dented anything and this is a major ordeal.  The passenger door won't even open anymore. :( Not a great way to end our Halloween. 

 But once I stopped crying we were all able to enjoy the night!

#2-Christmas Lights

Last weekend the weather was gorgeous, so we decided to get the lights up. 
Still no lights on the house this year, but Vince is coming around to the idea. MAYBE next year.

 oooooh....awwwwwe. 

#3- The Election
 We are sad over here.  
We were BIG Romney supporters.  We are a little scared for what's next for this country. 

Jack was so excited. He didn't want to go to bed until he found out who won. 
Poor buddy was heartbroken the next morning when I told him. 

#4- Dance
Oh no, Brooke's dance class isn't over until May....but I am sooooo done!

It is the longest 45 minutes of my life, every week in the waiting room with this little punk!

She runs around CRAZY!  Digging through others' purses, poking babies, trying to get in baby carrier carseats, stealing toys, stealing treats, trying to play on other people's Ipads and phones, and finding all sorts of disgusting things on the floor to lick. 
Not to mention there is a staircase for climbing....Heaven help me.   

6 more months!!!!!!

#5- CANCER

 I found out the day of the election that my cancer levels are below detection!  Whahoo!!! It was the happiest day ever! I celebrated by buying new jeans, every woman's wish!

I don't' have to go back for 6 months!
Happy Dance!

Wow! You have had an eventful past few days. Goodness! Your kids look adorable in their Halloween costumes, sooo cute! We were pretty sad over Romney not getting in too. The girls even cried. :( I am so glad that the cancer levels are lower! Yay! :)

I think Ivy and Sydney are the same baby. When people see her licking their shoes they look at me like I should do something. Eh, she'll be fine.

Congratulations on your cancer levels being so low!!!
We were bummed about Romney, too. Sheldon almost cried when we told him. But we were a house divided - Weston really likes "Buwock Obama", so at least one of us was happy. =)

What a fun update! Yay for no cancer!! Really, so happy or you. You are amazing and need a break! I am still laughing at the 45 minutes of dance being the worst!! EXACTLY how I felt last year! But it was for an hour, with Casen and Marlee... with the older girls dance teacher coming out and yelling at me that my "kids are distracting". Seriously couldn't take it anymore, this year she is taking at a friends house and I just drop her off. But good luck surviving til May and feel free to text me and complain about it anytime :)
