Addy came for a sleepover...

This weekend we got to have Addyson over for a sleepover. It was a full house because we got to have Alex and Joshua over for a sleepover too... We had a really good time and it was so cute to see how sweet ALL the boys were with the baby...

Found some photos

So I went into the camera to post the picture of Hunter the other day looking so handsome and found some other cute ones too...

Here is Brandon and his cousin Cate... and Hunter and Cate.

Here is Hunter before his study the other day all dressed up...

I WON! I WON!

So after consulting with my new advisor for fantasy football... I WON! It was a close one too but I squeaked it out. Thanks Dad! The sad thing is Brian lost... so I have referred him to my advisor for help and we'll see... I play the person that took Brian down next week so keep your fingers crossed. The good thing is Brett Favre has a bye so we'll see what that does to his team.

The boys had their first guitar lesson yesterday and it went great. He gave them three songs to practice and two chords. I am pretty sick of the songs already but I guess that is good because it means they are practicing. They are very excited to be able to play something they recognize.

Other than that... not much is new... It is a beautiful day so we are gonna head out and do some errands and enjoy the nice weather...

I've Been Defeated...

So today my "Girlz Rule" fantasy football team lost... :( Jason beat me with team Lunch Box. It was very sad. And two players are to blame... Matt Schaub who truly STINKS (thanks Brian for the advice to play him over Kerry Collins) and Brian Westbrook... what were you thinking getting hurt! I needed you!

Anyways, I wore my Redskins jersey today instead of my Girlz Rule shirt thinking the Redskins may need some help... Well that worked... THEY WON! Unfortunately I lost which leaves Brian as the only undefeated team in the league... I'm sure we'll hear about that for awhile...

Soccer Saturday Update!!

Our games went very well and both boys won their games on Saturday. Brandon was a superstar out there and they won 12-7 and Hunter looked so confident and played with passion. They won 3-2. Both teams are in first place!

I was so happy that Brian decided to come to Hunter's game too... It has been a long time since he has gone because of schedule conflicts and because he used to get so mad when Hunter made dumb decisions because he believes he is smarter than that. Well Hunter had a stellar game and looked great and Brian was actually there to see it! He was gonna start "coaching" from the sideline but I told him to have some faith and sit and watch. He did and Hunter showed him that he knew what he was doing. They had a great talk and you could see Hunter knew he was proud of him.

Great day!!

Fantasy Football Showdown!!

So after this week there are only three people who are undefeated in our ff league. Me, Brian and Amy's husband Daniell. So this weekend Brian and Daniell play each other and if he can beat him that leaves me and Brian and we play each other Week 6. It has been so much fun, I guess since it has been years since I got this into watching football and I really do enjoy it!

I think this weather is the best thing ever too!! I stayed up really late last night and got the mail done so that I could work outside on the backyard today and fix the door and all kinds of stuff... It is just so beautiful that yesterday the top came off the jeep and I was cruising!! The Jeep is the best vehicle every for Fall.

I finished the book "The Shack" on Sunday night and told Brian he should read it so he did by Monday early afternoon. He really is the fastest reader I know (no offense, Keri). It was hard to get into in the beginning but if you can make it past chapter 5 it is incredible. I really enjoyed it and have promised to pass it on to my friend Leah. I'm hoping to take it to mom, dad and Keri because I am interested to know what they think of it.

School has started!!

So we are back in the swing of things and doing some review from last year in order to dive into the new grade's work. They are moving quickly through the review and getting right back into the groove of doing schoolwork. Last week they even got to go camping with Nanny and probably learned more that day than they will all week. Brian's requirement for letting them go camping was that they learn something and Nanny did a great job!!

Soccer season started last weekend too! The games were at the same time so we had to split up. Hunter was EXCEPTIONAL at his game and was the reason that their team won 3-1. He had two assists and looked fantastic out there. Brian said that Brandon did GREAT too and they won 12-4 after being tied at halftime. I told him maybe he should go into motivational speaking after that performance after his halftime speech. He said it was far from motivational but probably more like threatening!

On Sunday we had our first Fantasy Football matchup as well. Brian got the best score in the league and is bummed that he now gets the last pick on waivers. I, on the other hand, squeaked out a tie score but won based on QB score. It was scary watching the end of the game hoping and praying they wouldn't get the ball to Selvin Young one more time. I ended up with the #6 spot and am hoping to get some good players on waivers.

I should probably do this more often so I don't write a book each time... Gotta teach...kris

Six Flags Again?????

So call me crazy but we took the kids to Six Flags AGAIN! My friend has season passes and they had a "Bring a friend for FREE" coupon so she convinced me we had to go... We had a good time but it was so HOT and SOOOOO CROWDED! I don't know what she was thinking when she told me it shouldn't be that bad. We knew it wasn't going to be good when 360 service road was way backed up... Anyways, the kids had a good time and got to ride a bunch of stuff they missed last time so it was fun.

We painted the kids rooms over the long weekend too... Gotta love mail holidays! Hunter's room looks great and is a porpoise gray with a red accent wall. We are almost done and then I will post a picture of it. Brandon's room is also porpoise gray but he can't decide on his accent wall. He wants blue but doesn't like the Cowboys... so we're mullin it over. Amy and her sister Kim came and helped me which I thought was SOOOO nice and we zipped right through it. We got new entertainment centers and got those put together quick too. They are excited and can't wait to finish all the little details.
