Shopping Carts. All Day.

First things first:

aaaaaaaamen! 

Contrary to what most employees would say, I like when my business owners are here and engaged with the day-to-day activity of our business. We're a small, hands-on mission here, and we are fortunate enough to all work well together.

When the owners aren't here though, it creates a gap that obviously must be filled, and in some cases requires stepping away from the office. What I don't really mind, is when that mini trip away is straight to Sam's Club for an office supply run.

boom. we're good! 

We won. Elisa & I knocked out the entire office supply list, along with the snack list for the team, and walked away loaded up with everything we needed, and spare time to boot. Winnnn.

After work, I headed out to get Sydni, then back home for a night of relaxing, Disney princesses [she still had no idea what's happening on Sunday] and of course, preparing for tomorrow:

she's reaaaaady! 

we're all set & ready to go, kiddos!
... seeee you tomorrow! 

TGIF!

Pumpkins 2012

Guess what we did tonight...

Happy [almost] Halloween!

That's the 2012 version.. It kind of got me thinking back to some of the past few years of pumpkin carving. I thought for the sake of coming up with a new design next year, that I'd share some and see if I can think of anything new.

That one there was from 2009? [I know, I'm heavily ashamed that it's been 3 years since I last did any sort of pumpkin carving; there was always something else going on and we just never got to it. Oh well. Never too late to break the cycle :) I did this round of carving with KP, Brittany & Joe. We went big on that one and even had the tarp out on the backporch. We don't mess around when it comes to pumpkins.. haha.

And then there was this year: 2008, with Catie & Burg, back at the 23-49 in Norhood. Haha. Those were definitely some fun times, but I would have to say pumpkin carving and pumpkin seed batching with those two was one of the highlighted moments.


"skell" - we named him. haha. [2008]



*phew. Pumpkin carving can really take the wind outta ya. Well, probably not most people, but if you're like me and realize that you've been holding your breath through the majority of those detailed little areas, well, you should know it's tiring work ;) 

Happy ALMOST Halloween, blogbots!
