almost wordless....

*NOTE TO SELF: never feel sad that you dont have a wordless wednesday to share-your kids will give you one.

o so proud

Tyse needed something to keep himself busy (out of trouble). I gave him the job of putting the tater tots on the casserole. I had already mentally prepared myself that it was ok if he simply opened the bag and dumped them on. I was pleasantly surprised when I came to check and he was lining them up neatly in the casserole dish. He was very proud of himself.

complete freshness.........

I cant help but get a little excited on every other Thursday. Bed washin' day. I remember that my mom would wash all the beds every week, not sure how she had time for that. Since the boys take a bath every evening before hopping into bed, I don't find weekly bed washes completely necessary. So there was complete freshness today as I washed the sheets and made the beds with a nice cool breeze comming through the windows. I can't wait to tuck them into a nice clean bed tonight. I'm sure they will share the same excitement and thank me many, many times for a clean bed. HAHA

Wordless.......

Never say never.....

Never. That's what I said when some friends said their kid was going out for 3rd grade tackle football. What I was thinking was "All these moron parents who think they have to do everything." Why in the world would you want to start so early? We never touched a football or volleyball until 7th grade. After some discussion, we decided to give it a try. It has been alot of fun for Andrew and he has learned alot about how the game is played. The coaches seem to be doing a great job of teaching them and not getting to fired up. So, never say never or it will come back to bite you in the butt!!

Ole' Black Joe

Ringo (Jills last cat) has been replaced. Ringo died a few weeks ago as he was walking to eat breakfast out of his bowl. Poor, Poor Ringo. What a way to die-on your way to breakfast. To bad he couldn't have had one last meal. Anyway, after an appropriate funeral and a special cat prayer we were on the search for another cat. Ringo has been replaced with Ole' Black Joe. The boys love Joe, especially Jack.

For all of you who have expressed concern about our yard. ITS NOT INFESTED WITH WORMS OR SOME OTHER KIND OF BUG. THE RECENT RAIN WONT HELP GREEN IT UP SO DONT THINK YOU ARE CONSOLING ME BY CALLING AND SAYING "I BET YOUR GLAD FOR THIS RAIN SO YOUR YARD WILL GREEN UP". WE SPRAYED IT WITH ROUND-UP TO KILL IT, ON PURPOSE!! We will be reseeding it this weekend. Im beyond excited about it.

THIS SHOULD BE YOUR FIRST CLUE, A PERFECTLY STRAIGHT LINE IN BETWEEN PROPERTY LINES.
