Pumpkin Hunting and New Happenings



Yay!! Its finally starting to get cold in AZ. Well at least in the mornings and late evenings. We'll take it 
though. Its helping us get into the holiday spirit. Not that I (Jenn) need any help. I am watching The Grinch as I type this. And if you're wondering its the cartoon version, the best one:) Well as you can see we went pumpkin shopping the week of Halloween. Now why this is still relavant is because we ended up never having time to carve the pumpkin and it is still chillin on our doorstep all perfect. Well its only rotted a bit, on the back side. But its doing well and adds to our festive Thanksgiving decor. Besides holidays, we have been super d duper busy. Dallas has started up his own city of Mesa softball team the Softball Homers. He recruited some guys from church, some from highschool and some from work to play. So far they are pretty decent, but the one team that they played sucked hard core. Dallas is also playing on a work softball team for the city of Mesa. So thats right he is gone 2 nights a weeks ballin it up. Thats just fine with me. Except the first team, the team Dallas put together, I have to be team wife. Its not bad, just cold. Along with being team wife:) I am juggling quite the load between work and school. Being on the activities commitee, we are in the heat of the season. I just helped to wrap up the Halloween party which was a success and we have moved right on to the Christmas party. A Hawaiian Luau. Nice right:) The best of both worlds, kinda sorta. I am also now a den leader for the bears and every Thursday night we are creating and doing and trying not to hurt ourselves while signing of cubscout stuff. I dunno I've never done this before. At work, whew,  I am shoulder deep in Student Council work. We just wrapped up a Fall Festival where we made $300 from a bake sale. Not shabby. I am also coordinating and running a canned food drive. Did i mention i am doing all this for only half the pay. Yeah. Sucks. Oh and did I mention the 24 kids that occupy my classroom and are my number one priority?? Yeah my head is spinnin to say the least. But somehow I am whippin it all out and getting it all done and still having time to spend with Dallas. Whew prayers answered yeah? Soooo... life is very busy and crazy to say the least but we are still oh so happy and lovin it all. Crazy is good right?? Well, thats my motto for now.

OOOHHHH Jen girl I am sorry that you are so busy, I guess that is better than having nothing to do at all right? :)
Thank you so much for posting, I LOVE reading about you two and seeing pics, it makes it feel like we aren't so far away (tear).
Hope all is wonderful,
