Where Does the Time Go!!!

My mom came for a visit on the 20th, now tomorrow we head back to Whithorse so she can catch a flight back to Calgary on the 1st. The kids have been just awesome lately. Dani is talking more and more - you can hold a conversation with her and actually feel like your talking to a five year old! Zach is starting to say more - mostly "up" and "mom". It FINALLY warmed up to -30 today. The temperature dropped to -45 on Thursday and that is where it stayed until today! The kids have been doing really well with the fact that they have been house bound since then. And in the pregnancy news - I am 29 weeks today - only 11 more weeks to go! This pregnancy has gone by so fast. It will only get faster with christmas coming and then both of the kids birthdays right after that and then we head to Whitehorse. I have a shitload of things I want to get done around the house before we head in to have the baby - I am quickly running out of time! The candle shows have been going awesome - I have almost 6000$ in sales this month. This is my busiest month with christmas coming and all. Anyway better go - have another candle party tomorrow and a 5 hour drive with weather to compete with! Night all.

Happy Halloween!!!

Chris took the kiddos out trick or treating for halloween while my friend and I drove home from Grande Prairie. We tried to get back in time for the fireworks and stuff at the park but unfortunately the roads were not co-operating! We left here Sunday at about 9 and got to GP at midnight. We shopped all day Monday and left GP at about 5 Tuesday morning. We got home here at 9:30. It was a crazy whirlwind kind of trip - and yes I would probably do it again! Next time though I think I will take two days to shop. We spent over 6 hours in Costco! Anyway the hubbs got the kids all dressed up in their costumes, painted their faces and took them to a few of our friends places. They are so cute together! Next year I will make their Raggedy Ann and Andy costumes.

Scraping guts!
This didn't last long - Chris ended up doing all the gut scraping
