halloween....

  • Sep. 14th, 2008 at 10:03 AM

honestly i despise Halloween...i really dont like the month of oct at all...lol. BUT anyway DH ALWAYS celebrated Halloween when he was little. I did not, my family always went to the "Fabulous Fall Fun Festival" at church and had a BLAST, and that was enough for me, i never wanted to dress up and go trick or treating, (my mom and dad did dress up my brother and me when we were VERY little, before they started going to church) but now that i have kids i think about this EVERY year...I dont know whats right anymore, is it okay to let my kids dress up and go trick or treating but KNOW its not a good holiday? Do i ignore that and just let them do the "fun" part of Halloween?

Last year we took Boston to the zoo for halloween, its called "Boo at the Zoo" and you get to go trick treating AND see all the zoo animals, it was FUN, and he had a blast. We also took him out trick or treating around our neighborhood. Im thinking this year we might just do "Boo at the Zoo"...i dont know....im so torn on this stupid holiday! ugh!

Anyway IF we do Boo at the Zoo Boston is going to be a monkey...and Driver is going to be a banana....hehe, how cute!

in other news...im getting discouraged...Mike put in to change bases about a week and a half ago and we still have not heard anything....they said by the 15th but im getting upset....we want out of here SO bad....Texas isnt bad but this base is and we are bored and feel we are wasting so much of our military career in a place we dont want to be...we both want to see the world, see Europe, we have already lived in Japan for 4 years and now i want to see the other side of the world! I want to do this before the boys get too much older and start getting involved in so many school things...i hate feeling STUCK...and thats exactly how i feel, just stuck here...no way out of boring town...

bulleted update...

  • Aug. 26th, 2008 at 3:20 PM

  •  my boys had their 4 month and 3 year appointment yesterday, both are healthy! D weighed in (at 4 months 3 weeks) 21 pounds 7 ounces, BIG boy! And B weighed in at 33 pounds!! both got shots and it was really sad cuz they both cried and B went first and when the nurse said "okay Driver's turn" B screamed "NOO, not Drivers turn, its scary, he cry!" Hes very protective of his little brother :(
  • Driver has an appointment with a surgeon on September 12th, the doctor yesterday said he has a hernia and will probably need surgery to fix it....we will find out more on the 12th but needless to say im a WRECK over this idea...the doctor tried reassuring me "oh its minor, out patient surgery" but im sorry there is nothing minor about sending my baby into surgery...praying for a good outcome with his appointment...im scared...
  • we had Boston in the ER on friday because he stuck something up his nose....it was a clear plastic round thing they put on the inside of ktichen cupboards so they dont slam when you shut them...it was very tramautic for him and VERY far up in his nose...thankfully that ended well and he is fine, albeit he told me the next morning "i all better now!"
  • i got a great picture of my boys together and ordered a HUGE 20X30 canvas of it for the living room, i will share a pic after Mike and I hang it up tonight, im in LOVE with it!! ill sound snooty now but geeze people are missing out on my great talant of photography... ;) lol
  • despite all my worries with driver and a possibly surgery and this weekend being hectic i am amazingly blessed and happy and content right now, we have so many new things coming up in september, lots of possibly news about a new base/etc and im excited to share it when we hear some news!
  • my sister is engaged and planning her wedding for may 2010, im BEYOND excited for her!!

ill share a picture of the canvas later!! <3

yes shameless brag ;)
