Mom the Slacker!

I've been slacking lately on my blog! I've got a list of excuses a mile long, but I'm not sure which one to choose as my main deterrent...

Was it the 5 cases of H1N1, 2 sinus infections, 5 common colds, and 3 cases of the stomach flu that went through the house since the second week of October? (I'm not exaggerating... there has been someone sick in this house for the last 8 weeks!) They are sick, but still smiling!




Or was is the never ending painting project I started in my bedroom. It started out a "Creamy White" - then I painted it a disappointing "Moody Blue" - then back to a "Tony Taupe"/"VanDyke Brown" combo. It would be nice if I figured out what I disliked/liked before I painted and trimmed all four walls. At least I had a few "helpers" along the way.



Or was it the second redecorating project I started at Bob's office? Why did I attempt to do two projects at once? I still haven't figured that out! At least Merek knew what he was doing. He helped Mommy put together the new IKEA office furniture and coat rack.



Or was it that we hosted Thanksgiving at our house? We had a lot of fun celebrating with the Olson side of the family! We ate of ton of turkey and cooked up 10 lbs of potatoes at Dad's request. We played Guitar Hero afterwards to try and work off the calories. Merek is getting pretty good!




Or was it that we started the overwhelming task of decorating for Christmas?


Whatever the excuse, this is the time of year we remember how incredibly lucky we are for all the blessings in our lives!

Sorry for the delay, but this is what the Schwartz Circus has been up to.
