I haven't been here to read or write for a while. Life happens!

Last Friday the girls and I went to the apple orchard. We had a grand time! There were so many apple trees and berries could be picked. There was a small petting farm and a HUGE play area. I was telling my hubby that we should start going there every fall. The girls didn't want to leave.

My hubby was playing cards with T last night. He did a little trick on her and she actually said, "that was bunk." I had to hold back a laugh...hubby uses that a lot. It's fun to see the girls use terms the right way, especially when it's slang and just funny coming from a 7 or 4 year old. A uses the "do I look happy?" That's one I say when the girls aren't obeying.

Other than that, the usual life craziness. Sometimes I feel we are doing too much, yet I know many more families that do more. I guess I haven't found that balance. Sometimes I feel overwhelmed with all the classes, clubs, activities, school work, and functions we 'have' to do. But once you say yes to something, how can you turn around and say no or admit you took on too much? Is this pride?
