October 31...lots of things happening...


What a day! First, it's Cody's birthday today! Gavin thinks that our dog needs a cake with candles. Not going to happen today, but maybe this weekend? ;)

Then, it's a major milestone in my life...I wrote out my LAST college student loan check. I graduated May 12, 1996...and I helped my parents pay for my SMC years since actually my freshman year (1992)!!! To my family and me...this is a HUGE deal! :) I am a bit sad though...it was a connection for me to St. Michael's. At any rate, I'm proud of this accomplishment!

Ian's first class field trip was today and I just got back. I am paranoid and I wanted to go! LOL Ms. Braun's class did a GREAT job. I rode over with two other moms (it was fun!!!) and met the bus there. We waited for a bit because of all the schools there...guess which school got lost??? That's right! Ours! Oh well...they made it and I'm sure the kids had NO idea! The kids had a ball and I was stressed out on the job...I was afraid I was going to lose a kid (I was responsible for 3)!!! Try going through a corn maze with some kindergarteners who have lots and lots of energy! Anyway, hay ride was fun, watching Ian play with his friends, feeding animals, picking cotton...just a PERFECT day!

On to tonight to visit with friends and do some trick or treating!

Here's a link to the photos from Ian's field trip.

Congrats on paying off the student loans. Man, I'll be lucky if I can pay mine paid off by the time I'm 33! LOL
