Summarizing a week :) October (19th-25th)

Time has just flown by.  I spent a lot of this week perusing the stores to find Chris, my boss a perfect birthday gift from the kids.  I decided on a digital picture frame so he can have all of the pictures I take of the kids with him when he goes to NY.  They are so excited to give it to him.  It's his 40th on Nov. 2.  We are also putting the cutest coupon book together from the kids.  They are adorable and have added coupons such as... "no complaining when we have to go to church, no interrupting while dad watches sports with Uncle Matt, lots of snuggles, breakfast in bed, back scratches..."  just adorable.  The pictures that they have drawn to explain the coupons are priceless...  It will be a great gift.  I did a lot of running around with Bailey during the days.  We got all our grocery shopping done together, and got to the mall to look for Halloween costumes too.  One day, we rushed to and fro to get all of our errands done before we had to pick Avery up from school, and we quickly grabbed snack from her house to go pick up Avery and in the end, we ended back at her house to hang til the other kids got done with school.  So crazy!!!!  It was a good week though.  Institute was great!  I have really loved learning more about the Savior's life.  I love it!  And pretty much every day this past week, Chris, or Chris and Bailey have ended up back at my house to play games and watch movies... usually much to late!!!  But it's always such a good time!!!  One night after school, the boys got done with their homework, so we all went outside to play four square, and then Bunnie, who is our neighbor came over and we played kickball with the kids.  It was me and her against them...  It was so fun!!!  We all just had such a fun time!!!  So cute...  I love her.  She is so much fun!!!  I hope that when I am a mom, I can be fun just like her.
