This week we enjoyed a Laser Tag game as a family. The handles chosen were:
Myself = 4Mom
DH = Dad
DS1 = Mr.Bones
DS2 = Loading...
DD = Psycocat
DS4 = Flatulence

#1 spot went to DS2, #3 to DS1. DS3 and DH made it into the top 10, while DD and I didn't fare as well... we stuck together and accidentally shot each other a few times!

Piano lessons started back up for DS2, DD, and DS3. They sarted with the Music For Little Mozarts books and are now in the Alfred's Basic Piano books. DS1 is following DH's footsteps and will "play" the radio. The 3 younger kids also started back at AWANA, which we find to be a great program for them to learn God's Word while enjoying crafts, physical activity, and building friendships.

DD went for fillings and enjoyed some "sleepy juice" for the procedure. She was feistier than anticipated so only 2 of the fillings got done this time and we'll go back to get more done in November. While she spent the day recovering I worked on decluttering and tidying up her room.

I attended a Union executive meeting and sent out communication to the membership about the annual public library postcard campaign where we hand out postcards to customers reminding them we're behind the great programs and services they enjoy at the library.

My big read this week was Make Anything Happen: A Creative Guide to Vision Boards, Goal Setting, and Achieving the Life of Your Dreams, by Carrie Lindsey. This beautifully illustrated book spoke to me about creating a vision board, and making all the lists I want to! Books to read, places I want to go, cleaning tasks, holiday plans... go ahead and make your lists! I'll show you snippets of my vision board in next week's blog post. You can find Carrie Lindsey's blog at carrieelle.com and help yourself to her printables and downloads.

On Saturday we enjoyed a family outing to the Ontario Science Centre. We hadn't been there in many years and enjoyed it as much as ever. If we lived closer we'd likely buy a membership again as we made good use of it when we had one.
