Our nocturnal neighbors are building a deck. They were out last night, with spotlights, digging the holes.

Vance and I did a lot in the kitchen today. We made Monkey Munch or Puppy Chow (too lazy to include a link). Google it if you want the recipe. It's pretty good. We also made two pumpkin pies, for my brother's birthday tomorrow. After the first pie went into the oven, my helper got tired and excused himself to drive his fire truck around the house, chasing Daisy. Because I was on a roll I figured I'd go ahead and whip up dinner. I had left over grilled chicken and a tube of Crescent Rolls - Viola! Chicken Crescent Roll Bundles! Yes, overwhelmingly gourmet around here.

Weekend Update!
On Friday we travelled back to Madison for a visit. Vance is still a little confused about everything. Before we left he told me that his bed wouldn't fit in the car, that we'd have to get the big moving trucks again. When we arrived at the hotel he said he didn't want to sleep here. He wanted to sleep at our house. Poor kid.

Dining Room

Vance puked again on the way to school yesterday. The puke container worked perfectly (it was the first time we had to use it). Well, perfectly in the sense that he didn't get any on himself, the car, or his car seat. Not so perfect that I had to clean it out. Moving on!

We're sick. It's our second round of colds for everyone this season. Vaughnie was miserable today, Vance is feeling pretty good, and Justin took a sick day. (Justin never takes a sick day. Counting today, he's only taken 1.5 sick days off of work. Ever. He's a Go Getter.)
- Play room has shelves, baskets to organize toys, cute bulletin board is hung, as well as the Giant Paintbrush.
- I re-covered the cornice in the laundry room. Goodbye ugly plaid material!
- Dining room has been primed. We bought the paint, but have not started that yet.
- I have the fabric for the valances in the kitchen. I have no idea even how to start the project.
- A lady from Budget Blinds came to give a bid for woven wood blinds for the kitchen windows. The price was not Budget friendly. Will seek another bid.
- We're being attacked by wolf spiders (holy crap!), so I contacted 2 pest companies for bids. Will call one more tomorrow and make a decision. Who do you use?
- Feels great to be getting stuff done.

Vance can't make up his mind on what he wants to be for Halloween. This has been the first year that I haven't been able to sway his choice. Here's what he's wanted to be (in order):
- A crab
- A bunny rabbit
- A turtle
- Bob the Builder
- Animal Rescuer (Diego)
- A bunny rabbit
- Animal Rescuer
- A bunny rabbit
