A big HAPPY BIRTHDAY goes out to my dear friend Deann today:)
If you see her wish her a wonderful happy 21st birthday!

A little boating fun and sister's birthday.

]We finally got the boys out to go tubing this year. What fun did they have. Parker was reluctant at first but got out there and was asking bobo to go faster. Patton was a little unsure this year and just rode in the cove. I looked over and the poor little buddy was all worn out and fell asleep.

We also celebrated Payton's 15th birthday. Wow 15 she sure is growing up. 15 years ago on October 8th she was born. There was a lot of action in Olney that night, right after she was born the hospital E.R. became full as they were bringing in hurt victims from a factory in town that had blown up (Wynmen's). Well Payton I can't wait to celebrate 15 more birthday's with you(: I love you very much.

I recently heard somewhere that as a child you spend your whole childhood trying to grow up, and as a grown up you just wish you could be a child again. Enjoy everyday of your childhood because it will be gone in a flash.

Look What Smiles can do!!

All that rolling over makes him so tired!

Well I forget to blog my anniversary
Brad and I got married July 22 2000. This year with all the hustle and bustle of work summer and kids running here and there I just plum forgot. Brad didn't though. To my surprise Ivy's delivered these at work. Through all the happiness, toil, and tears thanks for still being my best friend! I know I am not the easiest person to live with, so thanks for sticking with me:) Love Ya.
Just a little tid bit about deep thoughts by Megan Mann: I wrote there's got to be somebody out there for me and unfortunately I got all wrapped up in my feeling the blues that I just couldn't see that it is right in front of my face. I guess we all lose sight from time to time and I am sorry love that I did.


My favorite flower is the sunflower and these were so very pretty

Thanks for giving me my beautiful family

Well nothing new to report here. Today is my first full day of no kids and really no work. I took today off besides the lady that comes ever Friday at 10:30. I have all sorts of things that I want to do but really don't want to do. We will just have to see how much gets done. The kids are doing better on bed time and are getting up okay, we even were early today! Lets see how many times that will happen.

I am going through all of my pictures and downloading them to snapfish so I have a few to upload. That will be the first thing on my list this moring. In the mean time here are a few random pictures for everyone.

Well the kids are at school and I am now cleaning the boy's room in peace.

The morning started out good until Parker told Patton that his shirt was stupid and then Patton threw a fit because he didn't want to wear it. That did break the ice for me no tears just angry because now I had to yell at Parker and make him apologize to Patton and tell him that his shirt was cool so he would wear it.

Payton was yelling at he boys to hurry up because she was going to be late and it was only 7:20. The morning traffic I was not ready for and we finally arrived at St. Joe at 7:47 not much time to get tell the kids good bye. I forgot it was church day so the teachers were looking at me like okay Mrs. Mann please leave so we can get going. Got Patton in his seat and he was quiet and seemed very nervous. He said his tummy hurt poor guy has his mommy's nervous tummy. I did tear up a little but I guess I will live. They can't be little for ever and that is the hardest thing to accept. It will be different not having the little guy with me everyday.

So now what, I have a list of things I need to get done when I am not working so I will start with the boy's room and go from there.

Poor Morris the cat has followed me around all morning I guess he knows that mom is sad and wants to console me. He is laying on the mouse pad as we speak. He even cleaned my arm while he was giving himself a bath. Off to clean only and hour left before I have to pick them up.

Okay just a quick note to say that my baby is going to kindergarten tomorrow:( I am getting a little more nervous about the morning than I thought. We even skipped out of the open house. I know I have to let him go but I am finding it hard. Okay so he is not getting married and moving to China or anything but seriously this is hard! He has done told me I would embarrass him if I cried and I told him I was going to anyways so look out. ( I hope I am not the only one crying I can be a big ball bag sometimes)

To Be Continued........
