Busy Bees

This week has felt like a whirlwind, especially coming off a trip to Princeton last weekend...
It was a fun adventure, complete with snow (4 inches!), a Sunday morning fire alarm at the hotel (joy!), a missed breakfast with our beloved PU priest (we think the snow threw him off!), and a missed football game (thanks to the snow!) Needless to say, it was a weekend of learning to be flexible with plans and find joy in the little things--like hotel room stays and hot pocket pizzas for dinner! lol.





We had a great time, but there were definitely times when Mimi and I looked at each other and said, "Are we having fun yet?" Such is the case for any 6-hour trip that turns upside-down thanks to weather. Chalk it up to adventure!

All week we've been recovering from our travels, but not without the excitement of Halloween and various school-related ventures and a Bible study brunch for me... Busy! All leading up to this morning. In T-50 minutes, our T will be heading out on the soccer field for his second-to-last game of the season. 60 minutes later, M will do the same. We'll have to pull him from the game halfway through, though, to get him dolled up for his second ever piano recital, which happens 90 minutes later... in a neighboring town! Yikes!! Pray for us--pray that the little ones make it and I can figure out how to feed and nap everyone in the process... We'll make it work.

I will report back with news of our soccer and piano feats. Maybe even post a little video clip of M's recital performance (don't worry, Gramz and Pappy, we'll be equipped with video this time!!!)

Love to all on a Saturday!
God bless,

Can't wait to "tune in" to M's recital!! Also, wish we were there to cheer from the soccer sidelines! Missing all the revelry in G-Ville!

Oh, it is so weird to see snow in the background of your pictures!!!

And I just finally got caught up on your past several posts... LOVE the Halloween pictures! After we passed in the street, I realized I didn't see the boys. And now I know why! They were so stealthy! Haha! LOVE the way MG is smiling/laughing. So fitting for her costume!

xo,
