We Made lt To Friday!

Wednesday night was our big Advent night at church. I took no pictures. But I also need you to know that I made, no lie, a minute-by-minute schedule for the night. And while we started a little earlier than I planned, we finished at the exact minute the last thing was meant to begin on my schedule, which basically means I am a wizard. 

You may never know the joy that I felt at that minute. But it was a lot. 

Yesterday was a busy work day, followed by M's biannual haircut. 


Because my ultimate Mom-Hack is that I book a haircut for right after school on the night of the Christmas program. And I let someone else do her hair! 





It was a lovely little program. And we stopped at Taco Johns for the most inauthentic tacos for Our Lady of Guadalupe on the way home. 

Today is the 6th-grade bazaar officially. 

After 8 weeks of business planning, prototyping, interviewing for a business loan, making commercials and advertising, mass production time... it's all led up to this. 


I went over right away with strict instructions from M to get a "cute bracelet" for her before they were all sold out. 


One of the bracelet creators assured me this was cute and also it was throwing some major MN Vikings vibes for me. I am glad I got it though because they shop in grade order and kindergarten almost sold them out already. 

C's dish towels only sold one. Now, the practical nature of the gift is far over a kindergartener's head. So there's that. 

And they only need to sell 25 to break even. So there's hope. 

Still to come this afternoon is Middle School Bingo. (And in all that we had going on this week I have to go out and buy some snacks for C's table.) 

Oh, and I am calling Bingo obviously. **This was probably as obvious to you as it was to me. Which is to say, it was a surprise but it should be good!**

And tomorrow, I shall sleep in. We made it.

  1. Yay!!! You shall sleep in, my friend. I am exhausted reading about your week. I was talked into helping at the snack table one year when my kids were in "regular" elementary school. Surely, I could handle that, right? Wrong. Who knows how to mix up that much punch, and which children have allergies, and which mom is going to be mad that I didn't pop her microwave popcorn and put it in little bags??? Clearly not me!
