What a week

Okay well Julie is back home, the wedding is OVER!!!!

Tracy and I are back to normal. Which I knew would happen once the stinkin wedding was over and done with.

Austin woke up last week in the middle of the night throwing and then Colby came home early from school Thursday sick, then Thursday night at 11:30 pm I woke up sick. Which I certainly did not recoup as fast as the kids. I was down and out. Me in bed before 8:30 pm two nights in a row. Yeah must have been on my death bed. I finally started to feel human yesterday. Which is when Brady came down with this bug. Okay now I think it has made its rounds through everyone we better be done now.

We made homemade glazed doughnuts today and boys carved their pumpkins. The boys went to their very first haunted house last night. They really liked it but it really scared them out of their wits. It was in Barrington, NH, it was a hike but I highly recommend it.

Last weekend we went to Elwood Farms and went through the 4 1/2 acre corn maze and pumpkin picking. Where we also got to go on an awesome hay ride. We then decided to splurge and go to the 99 for lunch.

We have had some really awesome family time lately. Just love this time of year. So many opportunities for inexpensive fun family activities.

Julie is finally here!!!

YEAH!!! My friend Julie finally arrived Saturday night. Brady and I picked her up from the airport at 11:30 pm. It was so awesome to see her. I really missed her. Things worked out better than I expected as far as the time schedule. We stayed up until 2:30 am talking and didn't get up until 9:45 am the next morning even the baby slept in since he went to bed so late. She went to breakfast with Tracy but then came back here and hung out with me until 4 pm when her dad came and got her.

She will be back here Friday to go to the rehearsal dinner with us and spend the night. So I can't wait.

I have decided to be the bigger person with the whole Tracy nonsense. Here is my feeling about this whole thing. She has been my very close friend for 11 years. She has always stood by me and even at one point chose me over her family. So do I allow 11 years to of friendship to go over a few moments of stupity because she is being a bridezilla. No I will see how things go after the wedding and I imagine that things will go back to normal after the fact. I think she got way to concerned with the little details and forgot to look at the big picture and what this wedding is really about. However, it is her wedding and she can have it any way she wants just can't wait for this fiasco to be over so I can just put this behind us. Sadly I will have to think twice before I ever agree to be in anyones wedding again because of this one. I can't believe the nonsense that this monster has become.

Okay well I am going to wrap this up. As I am still getting over this cold. Friday I was up till 3 am and up at 8 am, Saturday picked up my dress, Colby had karate, We went to the Deerfield fair got home around 9:30pm and then went to the airport and picked up Julie and then got to bed at 2:30 am. So it is catching up with me and I am exhausted. I think it may be why this cold is lingering also.
