I have been wanting to get some thoughts down on paper but I feel as if I have been a little bit of a ping pong ball lately. We have had a busy week with my kids out of school. I had two articles to finish for Wasatch Woman magazine and I have to plan Becca's b-day party by Wednesday. I haven't even had a chance to buy her birthday gift. Next Friday we are headed to Salt Lake to meet my Mom and brother. I really just wanted to go to SLC because I was running out of things to keep the kids busy. We have already been to see the National Geographic photo exhibit at Southern Utah University and we went down to St. George for an end of season swimming blowout at the Washington Auquatic center. Of course, now I have to clean my whole house before my Mom comes back with me. I have not been the best housekeeper for the past two weeks.
I am really excited to see my Mom since it has been 10 months since I have been with her. Everytime she has been here in the last few years it has been to take care of me when I was sick or just had a baby. I have some serious girl time planned and I am excited to be with her. My kids are pretty happy too. They miss Grandma.
Rebecca, my little polar bear, was so excited for the snowstorm we had here this weekend. I am not a snow person, especially in October when I have an 100 tomatoes still on the vine. I think I may have saved them but I am glad the warm weather is on its way back. Lia was dissapointed at the dissappearing "smow" also. They had big snow activities planned. They woke up to a winterland this morning and when we came out of church at 2 p.m. everything had melted. This is why I love Cedar. Snow just doesn't hang out here for too long. Of course, I feel a tiny, and I mean tiny, bit sorry that the kids didn't get to build a snowman. But the snow will be back and there will be lots of opportunities for sledding and snowboarding.
Well, I didn't really mean to ramble on but I know that on Tuesday I will be busy making little chef hats and buying pizza ingredients for Becca's birthday so my journaling post day will probably not happen.

I am so excited for you to have your mom there. That is a long time to not see your mom! I hope you guys have a lot of fun together.
We didn't get any snow! Nothing! We didn't even get rain. It just got cold and that was it.
Tell your mom I said hello. I am glad she is out there to visit you. What a bonus that she doesn't have to take care of you, but that you two can just play!
Happy Birthday Rebecca!
Hope it's fun and not too stressful. I just wanted to say thanks for bringing us that most delicious dinner...in the snow! You are a special friend!
