I can't believe it's the 24th of October already...
The speed at which time is flying by is shocking to me. I can't seem to get a handle on it.
I also can't believe how bad I've been at blogging lately. I guess I just don't have anything to say, or at least not anything worthwhile.
The boys are insanely busy, which makes me insanely busy. Between Kevin's work schedule, the boy's baseball practices, and Tanner's Student Counsel responsibilities, it seems like we are always running and none of us are ever in the same place at the same time.
I have been really thankful, lately especially, for some really great friends who have been so helpful with giving rides, etc, to help me out. I have found that it is truly impossible to be in 4 places at the exact same time, no matter how hard I try.
So what exactly have I been up to? Well, I have been obsessed (to put it mildly) with politics lately. I can't seem to get enough information. In fact, just a couple of minutes ago I watched Donald Trump offer President Barack Obama
FIVE MILLION DOLLARS
to the charity of his choice if he would offer up his college applications and his passport application. FIVE MILLION DOLLARS to do something he should have done four years ago.
Heck, he can have my college and passport applications in exchange for FIVE MILLION DOLLARS payable to the Lewis Family Charity!!!!
I got giddy when I was filling out my early voting ballot. It makes me happy to be able to VOTE! What a wonderful privilege!
I'm excited, however, for the election to be over only for no other reason than getting rid of the horrible, viscous, and untrue t.v. advertisements. The amount of slander and disrespect in this country seems to be at an all time high, and I am sick of seeing it every 15 minutes. (That is, when I actually have time to watch t.v., which isn't very often.)
What else?
The boys had their Fall Break from Oct 12-19th. We basically just chilled out for a whole week! It was fantastic!! We did go see the movie "Here Comes The Boom", which was excellent, and we also watched a lot of movies at home. Kevin took the boys to an ASU game but they ended up leaving before half time because ASU was getting massacred! They came and picked me up and then we went to get a Bahama Bucks.
On the 19th we went to our community's annual Fall Picnic. It wasn't as good as years past, but we still had a good time...
until we couldn't find Tate...
for 45 minutes.
We finally had to send out all of our friends to look for him.
I had a smallish...or huge-ish (depending on who you ask) panic attack.
Ty FINALLY found him INSIDE the video game truck.
Don't ask me why he was INSIDE the truck, but he was.
Dang kid.
This week I have Treyson and Tate's Parent/Teacher conferences, and then this weekend is the big Halloween Scream Baseball Tournament.
Treyson plays in Peoria, Ty plays in north Mesa, and Tate plays at Big League Dreams in Gilbert. They all play at the same times...not sure how we're going to do that, but as usual, we'll figure it out.
I'll post photos this weekend.
That's all for now...
Now on to my day!
