Exhausted!

That is what I am right now. I have spent the last week up at our church setting up for our churches annual Fall Festival. It is a Christian alternative to halloween.
I originally signed up just to help decorate. Come in do some decorations and go home, enjoy my night with the kids...YEAH RIGHT! I get this call about a month before fall festival starts from our Minister of Education (MOE) asking me if I would be the head of set up. Ok, I could do that, a little more shopping on my part, buying the decorations no problem. I am then told that we would be doing this with 3 other churches! And that MOE was not going to be there for 3 days prior to the event...YIKES! Well, things went off without a hitch. The kids had a great time, almost everything got done and the MOE said she was definitely asking me to run it again next year...ACK! That's what I get for volunteering! LOL!
But it does feel good to pull of such a large event successfully! Now I'm going to bed!

My new car is here!

We are back after our whirlwind weekend to Vegas. We got the car, no hassles. Everything was set, just had to go and get it. We got a really good intrest rate, so we are very pleased. It is storm grey with dark tinted rear windows, and I haven't heard Aidan complain about the sun since we bought it! YEAH!
I'm still getting used to driving it since for the last eight years I have driven an SUV, but I am enjoying driving it.
We had our parents meeting for girl scouts last night and it went very well. A great group of girls, they are fun and engaging and I think they will all become really good friends soon.
We have a good friend of ours coming to UT today. He is staying with another one of his friends that lives in Orem, so we will get to see him either Thursday or Sunday. I'm excited to see him since we haven't seen each other since Aaron's high school reunion in 2002.
