Sad...but true....

Football...JV Style....

So I finaly made it to one of Josey's games...we didn't win...sad...but it was a good game...and the weather was perfect...not too hot..not too warm...and between Meg and Julie I was constantly entertained...

I Remember.....9/11

I remember where I was...

I remember what I was doing...

I remember how I felt...

I've questioned why so many times...

Because I don't understand...

Why so much pain...

Why so many lives...

This day continues to be a difficult day for me...for many reasons...I was seven months pregnant at the time...and the overwhelming sadness at bringing a child into this world with so much chaos was physically painful...My heart still goes out to those suffering such great loss.....

Yup...it's the State Fair...

Jackson...riding Red...
Tanner...riding Smokey...

It's our annual trip to the State Fair..we wander...pushy sales people try to get us to buy their products...we spend way to much money on food..the kids whine cuz they want to ride the rides...and Julie and I end up with fabulous purses...Yup...a great time indeed....

Concentration.....

I always get a kick out of watching my kids concentrate on things...whether it's homework..or playing with toys...Jackson was so involved with building his ship with Lego's....he didn't even notice me taking pictures....one of my favorite moments...

School Spirit....

Yup...this years school t-shirts were purhased last night at back to school night....

Another tooth gone.....

Well Jackson has successfully ripped out another tooth...I think he's trying to rob the tooth fairy blind....this last one took some work...and he's not too eager to do it again....it severely limits his food choices.....

Blackfoot.....

Whoever said guinea pigs are clean animals lied....ours is an eating and pooping machine...and cleaning his cage once a week is NOT enough...trust me....we did learn however...after having had him for close to 2 years...that you need to bathe them every six months....better late than never I guess....
