Oh - the weekend is coming....

So as I sit here wondering what the weekend will bring (other than the plans that are already made) and I realize what weekends mean to me. Weekends are a time to sleep in, a time to get caught up on all of the things I couldn't get done during the week and most importantly a time to spend with my family.

My family means the most to me and I try to spend as much time as I can with them when I can. I don't want to feel like I am missing out on anything with the way that time gets so busy and rushed. Unfortunately, sometimes it doesn't always go as planned which makes me a little upset but I know that we have to do what we have to in order to get by these days. I just hope that the efforts that are made to do what we need to is noted and appreciated and in some way compensated for by others.

Fall Activities

Sunday we had a nice day out and it was beautiful weather for it. I took Kayli to a corn maze/pumpkin patch. We went with my mom and my nephew and niece and sister-in-law.

This place was amazing. We did the large corn maze. During this maze there are stations to go to and answer 18 questions and take approximately 2 hours!!! Yes, 2 hours!!! Well we went it and made it out in 30 minutes. We only found 3 stations. We let my nephew lead the way.



They had a barrel train ride, which was these barrels painted with cow print. I rode with Kayli.



At the end of our long day there, Kayli picked out her own pumpkin!

Oh What a Day!

Where to begin.....

After having such a wonderful weekend, like usual, Mondays always seem like a reality check for some reason. Is it because I want to spend every moment I can with my family or is it because I wish we had more holidays from the office?

All day long I've heard "Columbus Day Holiday" but yet here I am working or should I say trying to find motivation to work so this day will end. I hate days when I feel like this becuase I feel as though I don't earn my pay. But then I think what about those people who come to work and do what they need to do to get by, that always makes me feel a little better because I try to do more than expected.

So, looking for motivation...I found these....
