Fall Already?

I really cannot believe that fall is half over ~ Thanksgiving is next week and that Christmas is just around the corner! I suppose that when you live in Land of the Sun and the seasons don't change that this happens easily! The girls' coats are getting a little thicker and Henry is hibernating (yes tarantulas hibernate) so winter is coming! I am excited for Christmas this year, I have some great ideas on how to decorate the house...But am even more excited that next year we could very well have a "White Christmas" awwww - FINALLY all this waiting may pay off! UTAH here we come!!!
The Boys are all growing like weeds, every time I blink my eyes it is something new! Lucas and Logan finished up football, Lucas is going to play basketball which I think is his sport as he can keep up with all his uncles. Logan is riding his skateboard and being 12 going on 18 he is about 4 inches taller than I am, but knows I am still meaner. Levi loves the 1st grade and as he informed me the other day "all the kids say I'm popular" I don't need a girl for the drama! :) Shane and I bought him a little motorcycle and he is a natural - he LOVES it! And then there is Landon. I could type about him all day...He is so much fun and to see things through his eyes is amazing I had forgotten how much fun (and work) little ones are. He is "working" on potty training ~ I say that very loosely and his favorite thing right now is to tell the girls "OUTSIDE PUPPIES" and to watch them run out the back door! FUN!! Shane is plugging along at work and has found a little time for fishing between NASCAR and FOOTBALL! I...well other than being a Mom and working a "full" time job outside of the home, my friend Sara and I have been selling Scentsy candles and are "raking" it in...we love them and apparently so does everyone else that we've encountered! In a little over 3 months we've sold about $3500 in product with little to NO effort...not too shabby? Of course we only make 25% of that, but given some of our other adventures we are just happy to be MAKING some money! :) We are doing only one craft fair this year...the first weekend on December...just too busy! Well I needed to update this blog and will try to be better about it...we'll see about that :)
