high school has begun

I barely got the 1st day of school picture, he is not so fond of the camera as he gets older....
and here is my 9th grader :) Jacob & Jeremy

and they are off....

tough workout!!!

Jacob had his 1st boxing lesson last night. They worked those boys and he is sore today!! This will take up a lot of his time and that concerns me with school and he was a little iffy last night afterwards so he plans to finish the week and make a decision. He will have ROTC through the school and we need that schedule to see if there are any conflicts. With all that said we have some decisions to make.
I hope that he and I can start jogging in the mornings as soon as it cools off a little, if it ever does ha!!!

road trip!

Friday evening I took off to pick up Jacob & to visit and see Carrie's new house.... I got to see the new office of this Asst. Principal~

and to visit with her parents & Granny :)

so Friday night Mary Grace was turning cartwheels...she asked Carrie and I to join her~

SO WE DID :)

yep I still can :)

not so attractive but I had to post it!!!

She look amazed as she watches...lol

We had a great visit and were able to hit up a few boutiques in the process. I bought some jeans and they are 2 sizes smaller than last year!! Woot!

when life gives you lemons....

make lemonade, and add vodka!!! It has been a hectic 3 weeks I must say, if it has not been one thing it has been another!!!
I did manage to get in some swim time with some girls that I have been friends with for about 20 years, we always have some good laughter!

Jacob is in Mississippi with the cousins & their Dad working...he is really about making money these days. This is a picture he text me on Tuesday....yes I am worried about the temps but he insisted on going! I am ready for him to come home so we can get in the shool routine, I am picking up his schedule today. In 2 weeks he will start boxing lessons with Jermaine Taylor's 1st coach and he will be in ROTC. Such a change from football but I have to let him be himself. Speaking of football I am READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!!!

Carrie moved last weekend and it was sad to watch that uhaul pull away. She is about and hour from us now so we will be making some weekend trips :)

that's my boyfriend....

the one in red :)

a little late...

We were finally able to have cake for Jacob's birthday.... and that would be with possibly the ugliest cake I have ever seen...lol. Maybe I should send it in to cakewrecks.com. But regardless it was nice to finally sing to him :)

The weekend was great it just went way too fast!

Last night was a get together for Carrie...she is moving about 45 minutes away after a wonderful new job offer! I was the 1st to leave the party so I could be up at 5 a.m. for my exercise, I missed the dancing but have to stay dedicated :)

this n that

All I have from Jacob's camp is the shirt, but I like it :) Last week my car window got stuck down so my friend and I jerked that door panel off started repairs :)

I am looking forward to a very low key weekend which is much needed after the float trip last weekend! (I still have bruises..ha)

We finally got Netflix through the Xbox live and I hope to enjoy some movies! A hair appt is scheduled and of course I am sure I will soak up some sun at some point!
