I have the best hubby in the world!!

I went to the Remembrance Day Celebration at my Ds Jr High. HE wore his cadet uniform, and carried the flag( stupid me forgot the Camera!!) After that I went shopping by myself since Dh had the day off from work. I have to say that I made a dent in the Xmas shopping. I was so very happy that I was able to go on my own! A big Thanks to my Dh for giving me this time to myself. I am very lucky, cuz I also get to go to a Scrapbooking party tonight, and there is a girls night out tomorrow that He said if i wanted to go I could, and on Sunday I am volunteering at the Spanish Church in their kitchen. and Next week I am going to the retreat!!!
Oh yeah 38 days till Cuba!!!!!!!!

Xmas shopping

First of all
Happy belated birthday Dear Marichu!!
So my Xmas shopping is going so bad I am going to cry!!! The kids will only get a couple of stocking stuffers since we are going on holidays for Xmas. So you think this would make my shopping less stressful NOOOOO, I'm not having much luck at all. I did make some progress and bought one of the many gifts today. I won't say what or for who its for just in case she reading this!!
So lets hope I can finish soon, cuz my friend Jolene is going home at the end of the month and I want to send all the gifts that need to go Saskatoon!!!!

So this year we only had three out of the four boys go trick-o-treating. Wesley the oldest is in cadets on Tuesdays, and Halloween was on Tuesday this year. Ethan went as Darth Vader, Noah was a lion, and Luke was a chicken( a Jedi chicken).
DH had to drive son #1 to cadets so i went out with the kids and we had to turn the lights off =0( so missed about 45 minutes of handing out candies. The smaller boys were going so fast after they filled their pumpkins up they wanted to go home. Ethan went with a friend from school for another 30 minutes. She got here as we made it back so it was perfect timing. Now with not as many kids at our door We have tons of candies left. DH and DS#1 are not complaining.
The weather was a bit cold but the wind died down, so it made it better. Funny thing though, I remember trick-o-treating in Saskatoon in -40 weather when I was a kid, but now I was freaking out cuz it was -8. The kids complained they were hot, but is because they were running full strenght to the next house.
So now Halloween is done, the decorations are coming down. DH has Friday off so Xmas lights and outside decorations are going up.
Oh and did you know in 41 days we are going to be on the beach in Varadero!!!!
