Ms Katie where did you get those???

I got a gift card for my nails and I had them done before the Christmas party last weekend and I went to work on Monday and several kids commented like where did you get those, another child said go take those off, another one says does those hurt One little girl says I want some like that. It was funny they all nocticed and some are more out spoken than others. So on Tuesday I was working with the cutting table and one of the little girls comes over to me and says look at my fingers and she had her new nail polish and says mine are like yours.

Girl scout Cookies

We had our first taste for the year. Connor and I stayed for meeting and that is what they had for their snack and they asked if we wanted to try it. It was really good they had lemon flavor. Now I cant wait to order them to get them back. There was quite a few girls that didnt like lemon but connor wanted more.He isnt afraid to try anything.

Connors 3rd Christmas Questins

Hey mom what do you want? ( new purse)
Hey sissy what do you want?( nintendo ds)
Hey dad what do you want? (brand new car)
Hey Austin what do you want? (X Box360)
He does this every morning and night and now he knows the answer before we can even answer him.LOL
Then we ask him and he says (batman, Transformers, spiderman)

Bass Proshop

Jeremy and kids have been there couple times together while Im at work and the first time they went Connor didnt know if he should cry or not he was afraid Jeremy was telling me about it and Connor was talking anout a bear that almost ate him to find out Jeremy put Connor up by the bears mouth . Finally while kids where gone I got to go and I couldnt believe how busy it was. When I seen Connor when I got back home Connor asked me if I got eaten.LOL

Furniture

Well it all started with inviting people for Christmas and Jeremys recliner started looking more worn everyday so he texted me at work saying he found a chair I said ok so he went and picked it up and than by Friday he was looking for a new couch and we went on Sat. to Slumberlands, American ,and last but least Homemakers we were just looking and all these sells people were surming us and finally we found the one and so we went home to sleep on it and we decided to get it. (yes its a sectional and it seats alot of people)LOL We had to go pick up kids from grandparents and was the kids ever surprised when we got home.

Christmas lights

Well it is on now We put our very first string of lights up and it was interesting watching Ashley and daddy putting them up. Jeremy is even talking about getting more the day after Christmas for NEXT YEAR) It will be our first Christmas here and we have all sides coming over on Christmas Day. We even got a big surprise coming for one side of the family. It should be interesting DAY.

Broken Fingers

Austin decided to go to Sat. practice out of blue and one of his friends from church and boy scouts wanted to practice, and practice was almost over and the child fell on Austins hand and broke middle finger, ring finger and little finger on his left arm. To find out Austin joined the broken hand club because our neighbor from our old house broke his the Tuesday Before.

We added another hairy child

He weighs about 14.5 pounds and his name is Lucky.He loves to chase Roxy and play ball. Jeremy calls them our hair children(lol).They both love to lay on me all the time its hard to be on computer and to read.

New Yard

Our neighbors behind us asked if it would be ok so Jeremy said as long its on their side so It started going up 2 weeks ago or more and finally today they are finishing it. I hope it keeps their cats away so they wont be scaring the 2 younger kids any more while we are relaxing around the fire pit. One night we thought we had some of Rich's friends joining us the raccoons but it was the neighbors cats instead.(LOL) There will be pictures SOON!!

Ashleys 1st fish

Well here is the picture I been promising I would post she caught her fish at GreenValley Grandma and Grandpa thought she was snagged on a rock but instead this is what she pulled out. She said daddy will never believe this.

Fair on First Friday, hey sis you didnt miss much

We was there by 1000 and there was tons of people. We went to see butter cow and there was a older guy that was upset because he waited in line for an hour and he said it was a waste of time. Austin shortly later said he was glad we ducked and weaved behind people to see it.
The food was still the same. Austin just cant get enough of it he is there til next Sat.

Connor being funny again

We got home today from work and getting seattled down for the night and all of a sudden I hear Connor saying I CRAPPED myself. I said what did you say and he said it again. So I checked him and he just passed gas.Well who does that sound like let me think ah maybe (DAD).

Ashley's biggest fish

We went camping one night with parents and Ashley and Connor wanted to go fishing so we go and Connor doesnt leave his in water very long so Ashley thought she needed to keep up with Connor but Ashley can cast and Connor cant So I walk from Connor to talk with Grandma a little bit away and all of a sudden Ashley cast and next thing I knew My arm had a sting in it and it was ASHLEYS HOOK IN MY ARM she thought it was so funny but she did feel bad. But we were all laughing about HER BIG FISH. That day Austin caught a big can with lots of holes, Ashely caught me and a stick, and Connor kept getting snagged on rocks.

Mrs Katie Why........

One morning I was standing by the door to the hall and I met Bryce and his mom at door and I take Bryce in my arms like I do everyday and start talking to him and he says Mrs Katie why are you wearing your pajamas. His mom and I started laughing he was so serious and all I could say I decided to wear my longer shorts today. I usually wear regular shorts or skirts so I decided to change up and wear my capris. So all day it bothered the little boy. So next day I come back to class and he says Mrs Katie wheres your pajamas. I said I cant wear them twice in a row. LOL

Bryce little boy in my class

One day I was watching for his mom to leave and I seen Jeremy go by in his semi and I said there goes jeremy and Bryce says their goes your boy I tried to explain it that it was my husband but he kept on coming up with different words like your friend, your son, It was so funny

This is also the same boy that doesnt like Brenda but he clings on me all day. We are not sure why.

Connor and bottom smacking

Connor has gotten in this funny phase when you arent looking he smacks your bottom and than he laughs. One of the teachers was telling me he does it to her to and she finds it funny too. Im glad he has really cool teachers.

Parents to come over at 300 for BBQ well than Jeremy and Austin decide to go to movie GIJOE and Ashley said it wasnt fair they get to go again so Ashely and I go to see GForce 3D good movie. Than we go home and get everything ready for BBQ and I asked Austin to watch Connor and Ashley he does and they go jump on trimpline and than storm goes over I hear 60 mph winds coming so kids end back inside and than it all went down hill trimpline gets uprooted from ground and blows over, the patio furniture gets tipped over and some of the tiles gets chipped or broken, and pool ladder blows out of pool and Jeremy brand new smoker grill gets all bent out of shape. Well you got it BBQ gets moved inside to the good old george forman grill.
