Summer Storms???


....in the fall. We lost our T.V. last week and our phones are doing strange things, all due to some pretty strange thunderstorms we have been having. I got into a small argument with another parent last week. When I took Cameron to swim, the storms were just beginning to roll in. The coaches were trying to decide if they were going to have practice or not. As we were all standing around waiting for a decision, thunder began to make itself known. The rule in swimming is that if you ca hear the thunder, get out of the water!!! Florida is not known as the lightning capital for nothing. Anyway, this mom was mad at everybody because no one else was willing to let their kids swim. I kinda hope that that family doesn't come back. The kids are as big of pains as the parents. Very rude with no discipline.

A Great Start

It has been a great start to the new school year. Possibly our best ever. Matt loves school. I wasn't too worried about him. He tends to be the teachers pet wherever he goes. I was worried about Cameron. When I first received her Scope and Sequence for the year, I thought we were in trouble. I spent more time on planning at the beginning of this year and things get tweaked everyday. So far the hard work has paid off. Things are clicking for her. I am already ready for Christmas break. I am working just as hard as she is to keep up with everything. I've got a small pile of things that need to be graded, so I will go and get that done. If I get behind then that gives Cameron an excuse to get behind.

Cruisin'


I leave for Nassau on Thursday. I'm going on a three day cruise with a couple of friends. We are very excited. No husbands and no kids (like there is a difference). Just kidding, I love my husband and kids dearly. Sometimes it is nice to get away with just the girls. If you've never been on a cruise, you are missing out. We always have such a great time. Our motto: What happens on the ship, stays on the ship.

It's Been a Few Days

I know it has been a few days since I've posted. We have been very busy. Kinda hit the road running once school started. The big news is that both Cameron and Matt are going to be baptized on Sunday. We (Jeff and I) are very excited, as are they(Cam and Matt). It will be a wonderful day. Baseball and swim practice are both in full swing and homework seems to be taking up large portions of every evening. I have no other real news to share. We are just busy with life right now. We are enjoying the ride.
