8 Things that happened yesterday
1. Woke up at 6:35 a.m. to Tyler climbing in bed with us and Justin watching Saturday morning cartoons. Tyler says he likes to watch "The Care Bears" and both boys love to watch "Tom & Jerry".
2. Piled everybody in the van so Travis could drop me off at the church at 8 a.m. to help set up for Super Saturday. I'm the new Assistant Enrichment Leader in our ward. I see many crafts in my near future! :)
3. Sliced my finger royally while trying to shine the glass in my picture frame. Did you know there is an emergency first aid kit in the janitor's closet and in the church library? Here are some pictures of the projects I signed up for:





4. Took Justin and Tyler to a neighbor brother and sister's birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese's. We had never been there. (Except for when I had my birthday party as a kid!) I have one word to describe it: crazy!
5. Picked up our Christmas cards at Costco (I love that place!). It feels so good to be on the ball this year. Now to write a clever letter to go with them...
6. Weeded the yard. I mean pulled out my precious wild flowers from the summer that look just like WEEDS. I had to tell everyone they really were going to be flowers. Silly plants!
7. Finished my Snapfish photo book, caught up on blogs and brainstormed for Christmas presents for everyone on our list.
8. Ate my designated "midnight" snack of pumpkin granola from Costco with cut-up banana and went to bed at midnight.

8 Things I'm looking forward to:
1. Thursday @ midnight! (Jeri, funny that this is my number one thing, too. But for me it means the midnight showing of "Twilight"!)
2. Getting my visiting teaching done early this month.
3. Thanksgiving with the Guptills. We're hosting this year!
4. Christmas decorations.
5. Mailing our Christmas cards.
6. Christmas music on XM radio.
7. Christmas books and Christmas parties.
8. Christmas vacation. Two weeks in Utah!

8 Things on my wish list (just in time for Christmas!):
1. A new guitar.
2. A nap.
3. A piano.
4. The new Rachael Ray Big Orange Book.
5. Organized closets.
6. Already planted flower bulbs in my yard for pretty spring flowers!
7. A fun girls' night out!
8. More time to go on fun family outings.

I am now supposed to tag 8 people. I tag you.

Great lists there! I'm planning on being in Utah for Christmas as well -- let's play!!! And thanks for the info on that Snapfish stuff. I'm in the process of building mine.

I love your Enrichment crafts! We just did something similar to the glass block, only bigger, with a hole drilled in the back of the block. Then we stuffed a strand of lights inside, and applied vinyl lettering to the front then tied a big bow around the block. It turned out super cute. I love the picture frame idea - might have to steal that one!

I don't know that I ever confirmed that YES will be in Utah for 3 weeks!!! =) I can't wait to see you.

I loved your list! You are so busy my friend. How did you like Twilight? I thought it was silly, but I liked it anyway.
