The high school football season is over.

We had our last football game Friday night.The weather would have been great had it not been for the wind blowing like crazy.We won though and that was nice!We haven't had the best team this last couple years.We just started playing 11 man before that we played 8 man,so the change has been difficult for the boys.I'm confident we will get better and better though!

K was in cheer camp all week and they did the half time show...it was so cute!I got pics but no video as I didn't realize I was out of tape.K has done cheer camp for the last four years I think and she loves it so much.It is always nice to watch her work so hard in such a short time to get all the moves just right.

We finally got all the halloween decorations taken down and packed back up phew!I thought it would be a great idea to put up Christmas lights while it was so pretty this week....what was I thinking lol!I will be glad I did when it is freezing outside,but for now J and I are stressing over getting them all up.Shannon usually does it and we just help,but this year it's just us....here's to hoping we don't screw it up lol!

I'll update on the smoking tomorrow maybe.This morning I need to make my babies some breakfast.

Halloween weekend and an update

Hope everyone had a wonderful Halloween! My sister and her family got in Friday evening and we had lots of fun talking and having a few drinks.Saturday we all got up had to get all ten of us showered and dressed by lunch time,which wasn't easy lol!Then we did some last minutes shopping and started setting up for the party.The party went really well and the kids were all sweet enough to let me take pictures of them as they showed up.Later on in the evening the kids all went in a big group trick or treating us parents finally had some time to relax...we were beat! That night we all went to bed somewhat early.All in all it went pretty well and now I will spend the next week taking down all the decorations...at least the weather will be pretty.I have actually thought about hanging the Christmas lights early because of the nice weather instead of hanging them when it's freezing like we usually do.

K starts cheer camp this week so it will be hectic in the evenings.The little kid's basketball games are starting soon...I can't wait!!! I'm not ready for the traveling but I am excited about seeing them play.Plus an indoor sport and NOT freezing my butt off seems nice.We haven't had kids in basketball in about 6 years or so so this will feel new.

Update on my smoking-I met my second goal woohoo! Now we will have daily goals and it get's a bit harder but I feel prepared.I've changed from my menthol just because it's harder to quit menthol than regular.That has been good and bad.I don't want to smoke as many so that's good but they irritate my throat a bit and my chest is feeling a bit tight....I guess that could still be good considering that's why I'm smoking less{wink}

Anyway busy day today cleaning up from the weekend and grocery shopping.My luch date got cancelled with Shannon so that stinks but maybe next time.

Have a safe and HAPPY HALLOWEEN everyone!!!!!

Smoking..well quiting actually

I got Chantix the other day while I was at the doctor.The medicine is sitting there waiting for me to start it which won't be until the 15th of November.I'm working on cutting back right now.Shannon and I sat down and discussed a plan,goals that sorta thing.I'm happy to have his help but I'm struggling with whether or not it's the right time.Shannon's job is in the air and the Holidays are coming up quick so many things actually.Hopefully it will be the right time and it will all go well.The weight gain has got me freaking out a bit.I gained thirty pounds last time I quit ugh!

My first goal was to make two packs last a tad over two days...seems easy enough right?It might have been but I had a horrible night last night and didn't sleep much which meant being up more and smoking more.It's not looking so good right now.I'm just going to be really careful today and try to reach the goal.I'll update tomorrow.It may be a quick update because it's going to be a busy day.My sister is coming up tomorrow with her family and spending the weekend with us.I'm so excited about it! They will be here for our halloween party which will be really cool.Friday night we are going to the haunted corn maze...I'm not all that excited about that lol!The kids will have a blast though I'm sure and that's the most important thing anyway.

The cute thing that happen last night with the kiddos.....K needed to get her costume ready so she was taking a long black robe thingy and sorta chopping it a bit.J being the sweet bubba he is decides to put it on himself and he stood on a stool while she walked around making cuts....and bossing him around of course lol!I snapped a few pics it was too cute to pass up lol!
