busy times ahead

goodbye April, Hello May!
May is going to be busy....just to list a few things

~ photo shoot w/ Shannon Treadway, if the rain will hold up
~ football banquet
~ City Employee picnic, I am on the committee for this one
~ office outing
~ Bunco
~ Riverfest
~ Memorial Day

It is still a while before the trip but we are planning the Girl's Spring River float trip, guess what? I am already packed and ready to go..lol

on a seperate note...
Sometimes there are just too many chiefs and not enough indians...just sayin'

Jacob and I had dinner at Gadwall's last night, a favorite of ours, then it was the dreaded shoe hunt!!
We have often fought over shoe choices, Jacob always wants a skater shoe and of course those things are left unlaced and just look unkept to me. And I keep telling him you are not even a skater....
Yes I have given in on numerous occassions and the last pair were 90 bucks. Guess what, this time Momma was NOT budging.....pick an athletic shoe or wear the old ones. It was simple this time and I was pleased, this was the 2nd pair he tried on and he liked. Of course I had to have a pair as well because they were buy one get one 1/2 off =)
Marsha and I walked later....and today is Friday for me woo hooo!

WBW~ Way Back Wednesday

Jacob 1996

I love his widows peak...you can't see it now for the thick brillo hair but I so much loved this little bald head, and those little wrist.

Marsha & I ~ Lake Catherine 1998 (I think)

Jacob rode the bus home with Matt yesterday and Marsha called to ask what I wanted for dinner. She had taco salads ready when I got off work. I am sure not used to that =)

Made me think of this pic so I wanted to share.

Thanks bunches!

(and no I did not drink any alcohol on said trip...lol)

I bet this song makes you want to punch your monitor...lol ...I like it and it's one of those to sing all alone in the car so noone car hear you =)

Pre teens is a very hard age and I sure needed this today =)

Hi Ms. Butler,

The English department is meeting today to discuss summer reads. I will get back to you right away once I know.

Thank you for writing. It gives me the opportunity to tell you how pleased I am with Jacob's progress in my class. He is a leader and often helps the other students grasp concepts and new information. He is a wonderful, smart boy. And, I am happy to have him as a student.

Happy Birthday Andrew & Bobby!

Love you guys!

Ask and you shall receive....

I have been saying for 5 years now that this dead tree in my backyard needed to come down. It was never a pressing issue but it was there. Yesterday Matt & Jacob were mowing for me and I saw Jacob pushing on the tree and it was moving, not a little but a LOT, I asked him to keep on and this was the end result....muscle men haha!

Now to cut it and get it out of there.

Weekend was nice, cleaning, cleaning, cleaning, and some good visits with good friends!

Hope your weekend was great!
