Halloween and stuff

Gavin as a bat. He chose it himself. He was very proud of being able to flap his "wings". He was also called Count Dracula and a vampire, but he was sure to set everyone straight.

Kiernan as a lion. He is a Leo. Looking overjoyed, as usual. Seriously though, he does smile. Sometimes.

Ben and Kiernan.

Rommel as a fat kid in too small clothes. No, we just put him in these because he was driving everyone crazy with his constant mincing around the house. He does not like to walk around with clothes on.

My Handsome Guys.

And a few seconds later....

And there you have it, my life. Things have been good around here. Now that I have cut to part time at work. So, at the beginning of the semester I really believed that I could work 40 hours a week, maintain 12 credit hours at the Master's level, continue to be a functional mother, and also keep my sanity. Turns out, not so much. After the third time of missing work because one of the boys were sick or I was sick (and I rarely get sick) I decided that if I wanted to keep my sanity I needed to cut back from work. And there you have it. I'm still sane and I will most likely pass my classes and don't have to feel guilty about never seeing my children.
On another note, I now have time to return to my weekend ritual of trying a new red wine. Tonight it is my first French wine (I know, I have no idea how I have managed to drink wine for this long and not have French!) called: Beaujolais-Villages, Red Beaujolais wine.
