All in one day

Today was a great day!! My morning started out very nicely at work. Everything went the way it should. Lunchtime came and I got to vote. And I was in and out of there and still had time for lunch!! I was worried that I wouldn't have time for lunch!! My afternoon at work went by very smoothly. I just love good days at work! Makes my attitude so much better.
This evening I got to get together with my very best friend from school, Joy. And we also meet up with Michelle and Anna from school. We met at 6:30 at Applebee's and we got to catch up on lost time. We had a wonderful girl's night. So thanks to our wonderful husbands and finance'!!
Also, Logan got another wonderful report at school!! Woo-hoo 3 days in a row!! Tomorrow is Halloween and I get to eat mom's Chicken Stew! I have a feeling that tomorrow will be a wonderful day as well!
~~Good Night and HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

Preparing to vote...

Okay, so I am going to try this early voting thing. I'm nervous about it. Heck, I am nervous about the whole election. Kyle voted yesterday during lunch and he said it was a breeze because no one was there, so I am going to try it tomorrow. I don't want to get into politices on here but I will just go ahead and state who I am voting for...I am 100% McCain and Palin. With that said, pray for me as I try to vote tomorrow during lunch. This will be my 2nd time voting and I know that it is soooo very important. We just need to PRAY.....The Lord's Will shall be done!




From the words of our Pastor tonight: In a couple of days, our nation is either going to get someone they need or someone they deserve!!

You decide which will be which!!! PRAY!


On another note, 2 days straight withouth getting in trouble!! Yeah, Logan! Maybe, just maybe the hot sauce worked...We will see!

Kyle's Pumpkin




Just wanted to post a picture of Kyle's pumpkin for everyone.


One Day Down



Well, today is a good day. For the past several weeks we have had problems with Logan not paying attention in school. I had a Parent/Teacher Conference with Miss Wright and she informed me that he isn't doing this stuff for attention but just for the fact that he has a hard time in Phonics. He tells us that he will never use Phonics...Trying to explain to him that you will use it everyday of your life. But he's seven and his parents are never right. Many can agree.

Well, the other week he got in trouble for spitting on his arm during class. This causes a huge problem because a) his grades are sliding in Phonics and b) he sits on the front row, dead center of the chalkboard, so all eyes are on him. The other week he made him write an apology letter to Miss Wright and then right sentences. He assured us that he wouldn't do it again. I also told Miss Wright that she had my permission to send him straight to Mr. Keller or she could call me and I would be right there to stop the problem. Well, 3 days (yes 3 days) later, I received 2 calls at works because someone was spitting again. I was there in 5 minutes. Well, we punished and prayed that this would be over. We also borrowed some nice Hot Sauce from Nana for his tongue if the problem occurred again. During all this, he has had a problem with lying several times before finally coming clean. We told him that he would get the hot sauce for spitting or lying again. We were assured it would NEVER happen again!

Four days later, Kyle was informed that Logan couldn't participate in recess today because he lied to Miss Wright. Although, this time he didn't spit but he stole a girl's shoe and then hid it from her!! So last night, he received 2 (small) drops on the tongue. HE PROMISED TO NEVER LIE AGAIN!! Maybe the hot sauce worked....

I had my fingers crossed all day and when Kyle picked Logan up, it was a good report. So maybe we are on the road to improvement!

Pumpkin Carving Time




Tonight was our pumpkin carving time. The boys look so forward to this every year. Kyle had to go "pumpkin shopping" on Saturday. He was on a mission to find the biggest one ever. And honestly I think he may walk away with that award. I've never seen a pumpkin that big...and only $5.00, I was very proud. Well, Kyle and Logan couldn't agree on what they wanted to carve so Logan lucked out and got to get his very own this year. Lowes Food was having a special, 2 small pumpkins for $5.00...so we got two more.


Well, they are nice enough to give me one to carve. Well I guess I took to long tonight because mine got carved for me. But it was a dragonfly so I'm happy! Plus it looks way better than if I would have done it. So, thanks Kyle! I'm going to try and upload some pictures from tonight. Kyle still hasn't decided what his "masterpiece" will be...so you will have to wait and see on that one.
