14 today!!!

Happy Birthday to my son Jacob---14 today!

First Day of School and more

This week we finally started school...sort of. We are taking it really slow, starting with a few subjects and adding a few each week. This is so we don't get burned out.
Jocelyn's Birthday was last weekend, so in our house you get to pick a day(if it isn't a school day)to spend it playing as much electronics as you want. I figure one day out of the year isn't going to kill them. They normally only get to play on the weekend for a limited amount of time. So Jocelyn picked the first day of school:) This is how she spent the day. I tried to explain to her if she waited a few weeks she would be "skipping" a whole lot more school. She didn't care, haha.

Jacob didn't want his picture taken...go figure he never does.

Of course Jordan did:)

As did Jaelyn.

It was a successful week, hopefully the attitudes continue to be good. I know we will have our ups and downs so I will take our ups when we can get them.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

My parents are coming over today to celebrate Jocelyn's and Jacob's birthdays(his is closer to the end of the month. She wants ice cream cake today!! Hope we can get it home without it melting in this 95 degree heat!!

"CAYENNE" with Jordan
She is a sweet puppy but DRIVING me insane on some days...


Its been a busy summer and it doesn't seem to be slowing down any. It'll just be different, but I am mentally preparing myself (and trying to have a good attitude) for football, piano practice, AWANA, CAP, watching my neighbors son 3 days a week, Jordan's and Jocelyn's Bible study, PLUS I need to do SCHOOL some where in there!! Wish I had some pictures to share but I really haven't gotten my camera out of the case in some time(bad me!!!)
