November 21st

Josh and Ashton woke up early this morning to shoot guns and hunt rabbits.  They had soooo much fun!

At 11 AM, Emmy and Ashton had their piano recital.  Josh and Ashton came in at 11:30.  Ashton went right up and played his songs.  Emmy had been stressing out, being put on hold until the boys could get there, not sure when she’d really have to go up.  I think it screwed her up because she refused to perform.  I was so sad because her “Carol of the Bells” is AMAZING. That whole ordeal put me in such a bad mood.  Josh took the kids with him to run errands and let me have some quiet time and a re-set nap.  THANK GOODNESS because I felt like I was going to beat some fools!  At 4 o’clock, Mom and Dad and Steph came over to shoot some scenes for Mom’s Carry Cami commercial.  Steph and I were the actresses and it was lots of fun (cold but fun).  Dad was going to use his drone but decided against it.  The kids LOVED it, though!  After he sent it way high, he brought it back down and Annie yelled right in his face “THAT IS SO COOL, GRAMPA!!!!”  It was pretty cute.

After we finished shooting, we went to Culver’s with Mom and Dad.  It was a little bit nuts with all the kiddies, but still great.  We went straight over to the Carpenter’s after dinner for Paul’s birthday party.
