the school thing....

So as many of you know Noah is in school now. Well to say he loves it is an understatement. Every morning he has something to say such as:

First day: While we were getting everyone ready for school he says, "UGH! Come on MOM! Can we just go already?! Just leave them they said they want to stay home today. They're sick."I guess they weren't moving fast enough for him.

Second day:I was walking Noah to his class and he is like 5 feet in front of me looking over his shoulder every few seconds. I thought he was checking to make sure I was with him, but alas he says,"Mom! What are you doing? This is my class you need to go home to your class!"

Today: I woke them up to early today, and Noah told me to leave him alone; he needed his beauty nap!

I am just glad so far we haven't had any problems! Knock on wood!

Europe pics

Just after I graduated from Rick's College, I got to go to Europe with my sister Kelly. We went to England, France, and Italy. That was in 1996. Well I am finally doing something with the pictures we took there. Most I am blowing up to go in my kitchen(mostly the Paris one) and the rest we are putting throughout the house. I just thought you guys would like to see some. Here they are.....PS I threw in some from the gulf of Mexico too. Also I figured out how to put lettering on them and quotes and stuff. It is tons of fun! I hope you enjoy!

Pictures

We took the kids and got their pictures taken today. I can't believe my babies are growing so fast!

Looking at these I just get all teary eyed. Sniff...sniff.

Up to speed...

To say things around here have been crazy is well in all frankness a GROSS UNDERSTATEMENT! Everyday I get to hear the wonderful heart stopping sound of glass shattering on my kitchen floor.( I am serious we only have four "nice" plates left.) Noah and Nathan now are called the light bulb bandits. (They removed all the light bulbs from almost every light fixture and put them into a trash bag. Noah even removed the one from the front porch, thankfully without breaking the globe.I am still boggled about that one!) For the piece De resistance....they dosed our front porch in gasoline. To get rid of the ants. Sigh....I don't think I am going to make it until next Tues. Thankfully then they can entertain their teachers! Bless their little hearts!
