Blogging: Take 100


So. It's been a while and once again I have fallen off the blogging wagon. Alas I am pledging to once again give this whole blogging thing a shot.

Lets see. My last update was January 2014 and a whole lot of life has been has been lived since then. 

The Mini's are back in school with just one mini remaining in the "Elementary" schools of SRC. They were less than thrilled to give up the sleepy loosy goosey living of summer, but this Mama was ready to have her structured life back. That and the early bed times. 

Don't get me wrong, Summer was great while it lasted. We road tripped. We Movie Nighted. We late night desserted. We summer camped. We celebrated birthdays, Shark Week, school getting out and then school getting the FREAK BACK IN. We basked in the sun, enjoyed numerous pool days, used and abused our "selfie stick" and slept in with reckless abandon. We. Had. The. Fun...but packing up those backpacks sure a joyous occasion.






Of course the school year does come with it's own list of troubles. Mainly two band students. Do you know what learning the trombone sounds like? Well I do...and it sounds a lot like THE WORST.

At least it's not the drums.

Birthday Bash Numero Uno

Pretend It's January 5th, 2013 It's Birthday Season here at the Brandito Lair! Mr. Brandt heads back tomorrow and it's time for the annual triple treat birthday party for Mr. B, Uncle Danny and Annabelle.  Katy made 2 delicious cakes for the event. The boys got their own green cake and Annabelle got her own special Mario Cake.  We had some delicious food and the Birthday people got lots of special prizes!  The UnBirthday Party was definitely a success! 

Victorious

This gorgeous face belongs to a winning soccer team!!!   Team Heat finished up their season with a win today. I belive we finihsed the season with 3 or 4 total losses. They will announce the official standings on Tuesday at the awards ceremony. Annabelle didn't get to score a goal this season, but she had several really close calls this year. She's very confident that next Season she will be a goal scoring machine!!   

Kingsley the Great

Even with Kingsley all ready for the big game today, we were not victorious. This is the first time I've been glad the kids were not home. With Gavin declaring his love for Gators...he probably would have ended up grounded before the day was done.  Also, I act like a total brat when the Noles lose...not the best of examples to be sure.   I WAS however victorious with my Black Friday shopping deals. Win some, lose some
