I havn't forgotten

I haven't forgotten that I have a blog, there's just nothing interesting going on in the Kelley household.

I did start putting up Christmas stuff. I know some of you think it's too early, but I love the Christmas season and after last year I intend to enjoy it 110%. I always love taking out the decorations and there's always that irritating head shake as I realize what a crappy job I did in my haste to put it all away the previous year (when will I ever learn). I had some stuff get ruined this time so I ended up throwing out some things, but have no fear my favorite crafty homey gift store "birch street gifts" I'm sure will have just the right items to replace them with :)

The kids had their conferences this week and their doing Great! The Luke that Ms. Palm describes is not the same Luke that I've had to explain 5 times previously every year. He's really doing well and making a great effort. He got all B's with 2 C's which if you knew all the previous struggles you would know is HUGE!!! Kirsten is above grade level in math and at grade level in reading (last year at this time she was below reading level) so that was awesome to hear. She of course has always embraced school and thrives at it.

Other than all that I really have not a lot happening. I will soon though as I get a start on Holiday projects. The kids want me to make their friends in class the snowman soup packs (I'll share that a little later:) so I'll need to start that and I'm still working on the Christmas cards, and lots of other goodies.

Tonight is the Christmas City of the North Parade. Which always promises to be really cold and fun. I'll get pictures to share.

Have a great weekend everyone!
