Weekend Review

We had a great weekend. We kicked off the break from school and work with a Family Movie Night. I made a fun invitation and taped it to each kids' bedroom door (because I didn't make it in time to mail it).

We had homemade carmel corn.  Oh YUM!!  You can find the recipe here.  It is a challenge to find a family friendly movie to share.  We ended up watching Home Alone 3.

Drew & Khloe ran their best times in their Cross County Sectional on Saturday!  Khloe finished the year at 14.59 and Drew finished his year at 13.10.  So proud of them both for doing an amazing job on their first year!!
We had another beautiful fall weekend here.  This weekend it was Drew's turn to have his special day out with Mom & Dad.  He wanted to go go-carting and he needed to get his shoes for basketball.  It was a total "boy" kind of day!

The kids spent some fun times at grandma's house.  Fishing, raccoon hunting, cooking and hanging clothes on the line.  I made some yummy chicken & rice soup and banana bread.  I ended the weekend at a mom's prayer group where we prayed over each other's children and the needs of our school and faculty.  My kids need prayer.  Drew is a challenge to me and a bigger challenge to his teacher and classmates.  Kait is going through the age where friends are making different choices and she is feeling torn.  Khloe is feeling 13 and flexing her attitude Independence.  I set this as the wallpaper on my phone.  We all need to pray this for our kids.
