Thanks to our Veterans!

So, here is the kids saluting all of you who have served our country.  Joshua had the honor guard come to his school yesterday and do a gun show.  He loved it!  Today, we are going to a parade, and he asked me if he could stop one of the army guys and tell him thank you for fighting for our country and keeping us free.  I started to cry.  Silly I guess, but not really.  I love this country and I thank those who have served. 

LOVE YOU MEN WHO HAVE GIVEN SO MUCH FOR US!  GOD BLESSED AMERICA!

Grandma Joy

So my mom was once a Professional Clown as many of you do not know....and she has been ressurected. Yes, it is true. I was so proud of her performing at the Walk N Roll for Spina Bifida, I wanted to share a couple of pictures from that day, Oct 30th. Thankyou to all of you who showed your support, including you Joy Clown!

She got up and danced with the fitness instructor prepping everyone for the walk...

Catching up

We went to Boise, Idaho for Fall break.  We were there for a week.  The kids and I went with mom.  We did horseback rides, cornmaze, movies, homeade bread, playing, and staying up way way way too late every single night.  We had a great vacation.  I have to admit that I like Boise.  It was nice to spend time with my Aunt Pam and cousin Dawn and her four kids.  There were so many pictures to choose from, so I made a slide show. 

The toothfairy???

What in the world is happening, my baby is losing his teeth.  I know that pretty soon I will be saying, my baby is graduating, but still what is going on???  On Friday, I went to Joshua's school with him, and midway through class he looks at me in terror.  Mom, something is wrong with my tooth...sure enough it was loose.  I explained that it was normal and then told him about the process.  For the next 24 hours, he vigorously worked at wiggling his tooth, and last night right before bed, it came out!  I think it is a world record for a tooth getting loose to losing it.  So, he went to bed anticipating big bucks since his dad told him a story about how once the toothfairy brough him $20!!!!!  What???  So the toothfairy did indeed come and only left $2 as is appropriate :)  So, good times.
