October's almost over!

I can't believe that October is almost over. I had such high hopes for the month, but we have been overly busy. November to me means Christmas shopping and I haven't bought one present for the holidays yet. I better get going. I am usually halfway done by now. As of today, I don't even have a list started. I guess I could blame it on the house as well since I really had no place to put any presents.
Speaking of the house, I promise to put pictures up soon, Melanie and everyone else interested. But seriously, stop by (okay, not so much you melanie, Japan is kinda far to come here to see the house) to see the house. We are typically home during the day. We just bought a desk for the den. I have been on a 3 month search for the perfect desk and finally settled on one because I was sick of looking any further.
My list of things to do next summer is immense. So I need to start saving. We want to take the kids to disney, mainly because I want to go and because I know they will LOVE it. So that is in the plans. We need landscaping, a deck (this could probably wait another year), a dining room set (another thing that can wait) and I am sure more.
I am waiting to hear if I have tickets to see the Rachael Ray show in November. I guess I put my name on the list for tickets and I got the email on Friday that I was up for tickets. The first date I picked was chosen, but they gave me a second chance, so I am waiting for that email. It would be just perfect if she decided to do a Christmas show like Oprah does and it happens to be the time I go. Well, let's keep our fingers crossed that I at least get tickets.
I will update more soon, and yes I will have pictures up as well.
