The Day Before School Starts…

Today has been a very buys day. After music lessons and paying bills this morning we made a visit to Franklin Middle School and returned Katie’s Shape uniform since we’ll only be here a month of school. I then took the kids to Artic Circle for lunch and let them play a little bit.  Then we went shopping for cold lunch groceries at Wonder Bread and Costco. We also went to Wal-Mart to buy Katie some make-up grrr…. I hate how big she’s getting and how grown up she’s getting. We made a deal that when she finished her Faith In God Award she could shave her legs and wear a very small amount of make-up. She’s been working really hard on it and while she isn’t completely finished she had planned to finish it today so she could wear make-up to school. I ruined her plans though when I had plans for the day that kept her too busy to work on it so she’ll probably finish on Saturday and then make an appointment with Bishop Morrissey for an interview. So I guess I gave in but just a little bit.

After Wal-Mart we went bowling one last time with Melinda, Josh and Sarah. Then when we got home we headed straight to the elementary school for Back To School Night. We met all the teachers and put away supplies to tomorrow the kids can go to class and get started right away. Their teachers are sad to only have them a month but those who know our situation are also excited for us to finally be able to move and all be together. Tomorrow I will post those traditional wonderful Back to School photos except for Isaac cause his first day isn’t until Wednesday next week. He has orientation on Friday but doesn’t really have class.

For dinner tonight I copied something I saw on a blog I read. We pushed spaghetti noodles through polish hot dogs. The kids thought it was really strange but fun. Then we boiled them and put butter and some seasoning on them and they were ok. Not my favorite but a fun quick dinner for a busy day.
