Welcome to a new week, intentional women! How did you do on your goals last week? I was very happy with my goals except for progressing on my blogging goals! Although, I did get my posts done for my 31 Days series, I didn’t get nearly what I was hoping to on the rest of the goals. (Don’t you wish sometimes you had 2 or 3 clones so you could get everything done?)
This week is Halloween week which means fun, candy, and lots of family time! The kids don’t have school on Thursday or Friday for Fall Break so we are doing their Halloween parties at school on Wednesday. Halloween is always the party I help with at school. Our kids have a movie party for Christmas, go somewhere fun for Valentine’s and Halloween is the one party they stay at school, play games, and have a lot of fun. I think it’s very neat that our school does different things for different holidays but the kids love dressing up and I love their excitement, so Halloween is my party. This year I’m in charge of a few games and of course we’ll bring treats (and maybe a trick!)
Last Week’s Goals:

How fun to be building your own home. Sometimes I think that building would be awesome! I am sure that there is a ton of work that goes in to building though. Have fun thinking about shower ideas this week!
