It's been such a long time since I've written in this blog. I think I need to write here some more. We've been busy the past few weeks. We just got home from a 2 week vacation to So Cal. My cousin, Kathaleen, got married on 10/10/10 so that was the main reason we waited until October for a vacation. Trust me, it was needed much earlier in the year then when we took it. We got in on Saturday 10/2 and went straight to Disneyland. We got our annual passes and spent about 3 hours. It was raining and we were pretty tired, but the Tea Cups in the pouring rain with my baby girl was a blast. :) After that, we headed to Highland and staied with my father in law until 10/6. We visited with Kevin's family during those days and celebrated Kevin's birthday on 10/5. The morning of the 6th we headed out to Anaheim. We staied there until Friday 10/15. So about 9 days of Disney. Lilith did not want to come home! It was a long drive and I think next time, and everytime from now on, we will be flying. The main downside to the trip was too much family. We only had a couple of days all to ourselves. If it wasn't Kevin's family, it was mine. My parents flew down for the wedding and the following week to play at Disney with us. My Aunt Terry and Aunt Pammy both came out for a couple of days, too. I was thinking about this a little bit ago...the only vacation we have ever taken that was just us and no family was when we went to Japan in April 2006. I think we are in much need of one. Maybe next year. We'll be going back to Disney next Spring, but expecting some family then, too.
Anyway, the main reason I came to this blog and not my other...to complain about family. 1 in particular. Kevin's nana. She's brought up again me going to college after Lilith starts school. She brought it up when she visited in December/January. And again the night we had Kevin's birthday. Then a couple of days later brought it up again to Kevin on the phone about what she thinks I should do. Look, I'm not like you! I don't HAVE to go back to school if I don't want to. I'm very proud of Kevin for doing it (Oh, he graduates November 2nd!!! And is applying to Texas A&M's online Masters program.). Anyway, now she's saying I need to go to a fashion school. Yes, I enjoy sewing and would like to learn more things (like using a dressform and making my own pattern), but I would be happy to just take a few classes. And her telling me what she thinks I need to do just makes me want to NOT do things.
Anyway, I need to get back and finish reading Kevin's paper. I also have to get started on Lilith's Halloween costume. I'd like to get it finished before the MOMS Club Halloween Party...tomorrow afternoon at 330. LOL We will see. Pics when it's done. :)
