Happy Halloween!

I have been lamenting that I am not a very good grandma. I should have had a Halloween party for the grandkids and should have sent a package to the ones that live away, I didn't do anything. Christie told me I need to lower my expectations or quit work. I don't do either, I just feel guilty! We should have pizza and root beer at our home on Halloween if anyone wants to come by. We would love to see everyone in their costumes. One of the highlights of this week was going to see Isaac's football game on Friday night. It was their last game of the season and they won! It was freezing so we all huddled under the blankets. Kristy had the camera so we didn't get pictures of her or Tom--who was in shorts! It was fun though to be with them. Isaac is #93. For some reason this picture transferred sideways and I can't get it to turn. Except I got my awesome son John to fix it and he is my favoirte child. When we got there the kids all came running over to give us hugs. That was the best! We hadn't seen them since we had tended them the weekend. Laura cut dad's and my hair this Friday, so we thank her. I love to get that grey covered up! Dad is doing great. He had that one job and then got a second one. He did great both days. He uses his upper body to get the rest of him in the dump truck and tractor. He was late to physical therapy that one day so he drove his truck/tractor/trailer ensemble and parked it in the handicap spaces. I'm sure it made quite the impression This was the first time in a month that he has had work so we are really grateful and grateful he was able to do it. We got to go to see Jenna and Nicole's primary program today and that was fun. Those girls know all the songs and did so well on their parts. We were proud of them. Dad got to go to Isaac and Joshy's primary program also and said they did really well. I was sad I missed it. Jer and Liz bottled hot salsa this year. Jer warned me it is pretty hot. He said Logan loves it though. He asked Jer if he had the hot one or not for dinner one night. When Jer told him it was the hot salsa, he said "Put it on the table" or movie trivia equavilant "bring it on" (Can't remember, Kim, which one) Christie met me at the grocery store so we went shopping. Lately it is the only time we get to see each other or even talk. I am worried her kids won't know me any better than those who live far away. They are going to Darren's mom's home today. Brody called just to chat last week and that is so fun for me. He said they were out of school this week and were planning some fun things. I taught primary today and it was sooooooosos long! The kids were so restlesss. They were good for the first 15 minutes, then it was trying to keep under control. I decided I need tons of activities next time--and they all begged for snacks. I had to pick both Kim's and Christie's brain to get help. Anyway, if anyone has any suggestions, please send them my way. Hope all have good week and please come to see us! Love you!
