First Day of School

I cant believe that school has started already.... I find it interesting that many moms are soooo ready for the first day.. Their kids are at each others throats... they want them gone all day... Some days, I do too, but not everyday. Christian is now in KINDERGARTEN!!!! I dont really know what to do with myself. I am not quite used them not being here. It is fun to hear about their days though. JON is A SIXTH GRADER! I just cant quite get a grip on it yet... What do I do with my day??? I want to watch soaps and eat bon bons, but I know that is not realistic. So i am preparing to take up some of the projects I have put on hold over the past year. Wish me luck so I can get them done.





Ok Courtney, I wrote the beginning to this blog on Aug. 5th!!!! I havent started asingle project, and I am still not used to being home by myself... but it is fun doing things like going to the store and out to lunch without a child in tow. But I do miss Christian and the others too. I just wish they didnt come home with the attitudes they tend to pick up at school..... YEAH ME!!!! I think something smelled funny to Jon. I am not sure why he had that face!!!!But arent they a great looking crew, if i do say so myself. They are a great bunch of kids!!!!! I am so blessed to have them!!!

BREAKING DAWN

If you havent read this book series, I highly recommend it. It is a truly remarkable series. Who ever thought I would really like a book about a young girl falling in love with a vampire?? Not to mention the werewolves that are involved. Since Courtney and I couldnt make it to NY, we went to the local Barnes and Noble in Tuscaloosa. It was so much fun!! We met some great people who had the same interests we had even though I am 20 or so years older than most of them. WOW!!! But through it all, I made some great new friends...It was so much fun hangin out with them..... I hope Stephenie Meyer continues the series with other books. She is a fabulous writer and story teller... Check out the video from Tuscaloosa news where we were interviewed.... It was cool...
