We had a great week followed by a nice weekend! Yeah.
School clothes shopping are almost complete ! hooray. Amazing how much they can grow over a few months, isn't it? Shoe sizes were a great surprise....Koda (15 yr) - size 12, Jake (12yr) size 13, Steve II (11 yr) 9.5 Where will we shop next year? The lady told us we need to start surfing the net for sites that sell over size 13...lol. I need to search for football cleats now.....actually should have been a few months ago. (Jake is planning to play for Parkside.)

Steve and I made salsa this weekend....YUM. Steve and I thought a lot about what we wanted to do with all of our tomatoes.....and he thought of salsa. It was a nice way to use the peppers (banana and green) and tomatoes. We had what we thought was A LOT of tomatoes.....but we got 4 quarts and 2 pints of salsa out of all of it.

Crazy work week- payroll Monday 6am-3pm, Tues and Thurs Home Health Aide computer training, Wednesday right after work is Jake's school open house, Friday I am seeking some R & R!!

Have the girls weekend plans made. This year a little more low key....not as much personal time available for me this year after all the illnesses and surgeries. We have a Holiday Inn Express suite booked in GR. Planning a visit to Meijer Gardens, a chic flick and crafting!

Sent my $$ in for the Crazy Croppin Chics weekend in Novemeber over in Spring Lake again....oh I am so ready and need to scrapbook. Count me in.

Just needed to leave a little update and let you all know...we are all ok. Riley is feeling better but still hanging with FLO :-( poor baby. Grandma- she will graduate back home in 2 weeks if all goes well as planned. Dad is doing much better- his electric current therapyis helping things progress along. :-) Otherwise, all is well.
