highlights of the weekend

This was a good weekend for finishing things, catching up and starting our Thanksgiving vacation off on a nice note. Friday I started my Fall cleaning because I really do not want to spend my entire week off from school cleaning! Quiet room (aka the livingroom) is completed along with the diningroom. It took most of Saturday but it really gave me a boost mentally. I took a break on Saturday and Tom and I took the children to the library for a craft day. They made cute little teepee's and turkeys and had a great time. Tom was formally introduced to glue dots (which almost made me hysterical at one point to see his big man hands trying to manuver very sticky little glue dots all while holding his tongue and temper as they stuck to everything but the project at hand) and I gave him an A+ for being such a great sport about it all. He will probably think twice about volunteering to go again! I am posting pictures of our crafts we made. Tommorrow I will post some pictures of some organizing ideas we came up with to help with the big family order.
Have a super week everyone as mine has already started off with much feeding from the Lord!!
