Time’s Just a’Flyin’

Weekly Happenings: This week just flew by! Monday was a holiday, which is probably what made the rest of the week seem like it went by so fast. We didn’t really do too much out of the ordinary. Joseph did participate in his school’s annual fun run (a fundraiser) which he enjoyed doing with his friends. That kid ran over 30 laps (which is why I never do a per lap donation, haha), which equaled out to just over two miles. That’s a lot for little legs! We were also “boo’ed” which means someone left a Halloween bucket full of candy and trinkets as a surprise on our doorstep with instructions for us to continue the fun by “boo-ing” two other people.

The Weekly Weather: A mixed bag, as usual. Some cold weather, some warm weather, and some in-between (not to mention the cold mornings followed by the warm afternoons).

What Paul’s Been Up To: Work, home stuff, church stuff, etc. Our lives are pretty routine right now.

What Sarah’s Been Up To: Taxiing kids around, typical home stuff, and typical church stuff. Not too much out of the ordinary for me.

What Joseph’s Been Up To: I already mentioned the fun run. I do feel the need to add that he is extremely patient and sweet with his little sister. He is such a good big brother!

What Abigail’s Been Up To: One of her new things is when she hands something to someone, she’ll say, “Here ya’ go, pal!” Maybe there is such a thing as too much Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, haha. She has also taken to yelling, “No, ma’am!” at me when she doesn’t like me telling her to stop doing something…or even better yet, she’ll put her hand up and yell, “Stooooooooooooooooooooooooop!” (I don’t think I’m exaggerating the number of vowels in that, either…I have a hard time keeping a straight face when she does that, to be honest).

This Week in Pictures:

I went upstairs to fold laundry (I was gone for maybe 15 minutes). I came down and found this. 🙂
A friend of mine passed along some boots for Abigail.
To say she was excited would be an understatement.
If anyone can rock sparkly pink animal print cowboy boots, it’s this girl. 😀
Getting ready for his fun run.
An action shot.
I noticed a couple of slots were accidentally skipped (it’s sometimes hard for the parent volunteers to keep up with the kids) and one was marked twice…so I think he ran either 33 or 34 laps.
I found them these matching shirts when I was on my way up to Waco last week.
I love when my photos app does these then-and-now pictures.
I think I’ll caption this as “Serious Pokemon trainer and his sweet little sidekick”.
These fun glasses were in our “Boo” bucket.
There was a pair for each kid.
