WOO HOO HIGH TODAY IS 64

WOO HOO the High Today was 64.  It is practically a heat wave.  I know you California girls are chillin with that 70 stuff.  But right now 64 sounds blissful.  Ok, enough complaining about the temp.  I did use the cool weather to inspire me to scrap some fun sled pics.  I'm just learning how to get them into the computer after I'm finished so bear with my imperfections.

Last night was the father and son camp out so Al and I watched movies and hung out.  Every time S. came home she came up with another reason to leave.  She didn't come home for good until 9:30.

It is hard to realize that she thinks she is to big to hang with her mom and little sis.  When did she decide to grow up and is there anyway I can revoke that particular right. :) Next year I am going to be a grouch and force her to stay home.  Tie her down with ropes and tell her she is having fun until she does.

Do you think that will work?  "Big Sigh" probably not, right.

Meanwhile, after the boys got home A. said,"Mom, Dad never let me out of his sight every where I went he was there."  Ok, well if I had a child not happy with my presence it makes me giggle that Brent had one too.  H. said, "It was the best time ever can we go tonight." Well as the saying goes, "You win some you loose some."

Wow your kids are old too! Tyler never wants to spend time with me. I love to pay him back by yelling to him "I LOVE YOU" as he steps away from the car at school. He can't shut the door fast enough. Thanks to power windows he does'nt get off that easy! Love you guys, Hope to see you guys sometime soon.

At my Age

I saw this quote the other day and had to smile. It has been interesting finishing school at my age. I have had this feeling more than once that I am a little old, and finishing school is something I should have done a long time ago. Usually I remind myself that we all have our own paths to take in life. My path had me marry at 19 and become the mother of four beautiful rug rats by 27. Marriage and children defined me more than anything. I became more aware of my talents and abilities. I really didn't know who I was before I became a wife and mother. Waiting until now to finish my degree gave me time to figure out who I am. Well, at least to have a better idea of who I am. I love being in a classroom, I love learning, and I love helping others learn. My inner nerd does little happy dances every time I learn something new. Each person on this planet has their own God given talents. We have a responsibility to find our talents and to make the world a better place. How old you are wh...

Pinewood Derby or Bust!

If there is one thing that Brent and I both agree on.  One thing that we both believe is essential to the proper development, growth, and raising of a son. That no boyhood would be complete with out.  It would be participation in the Pinewood Derby.   Yes, on this one thing Brent and I are in total agreement.  A boyhood is not a true boyhood until a boy has built a pinewood derby car and then competed in a pinewood derby.  It is that important!  I'm sorry if you have never had the opportunity to live in a house filled with the air of pinewood derby. If you have never had the opportunity of watching a father stand to the side as his son uses HIS power tools. The opportunity to take a chunk of wood and see that inside the wood is the makings of a CAR.   You wonder why men are so obsessed with cars, with how there made, and how fast they go.  Well if you have ever brought home a pinewood derby box kit to a home with boys and men all your questions would be answered. Once the car is b...

The Kids Today

S. is now 11 years old and is counting down the days until she turns 12. She is in the fifth grade and says math is her favorite subject. She stays pretty busy with swimming and soccer. This past year in addition to a regular AYSO team she has been competing on an All Star Team. She has really enjoyed it and is really looking forward to a tournament that will take place in Hawaii this July. She still loves swimming and is still competing when she can. A. is 9 years old and is the professor of the house.  He is our silent man whose brain is in constant motion.  He reads and reads and reads and soon will read me out of house and home.  He enjoys video and computer games, and he loves playing sports.  In January he made the city swim team and continues to play soccer, basketball, and anything that I let him.  Al will soon be eight.  As in next week soon.  The best part of school she says is 3:25 when pressed for a better answer than that she say...
