TGIF!!!!

This has been one LONG week! I am so glad that it is Friday!!!

The kids love Fridays when we have home games because we have pep rallies! mary d. opted to wear a jersey today instead of her cheer uniform ~ I must say she totally rocked it out with some boots and zebra bows! this chick has a style ALL her own! Jackson was pumped about show and tell today! His Daddy helped him find a deer rack to show his friends! my "big" kids were pretty impressed with the deer, too! ;)

We got Dalton off this a.m. ~ 3:30 is EARLY for a wake up call! He is in Cody, Wyoming and starts his hunt Sunday! We hope he gets a BIG elk and has a great time! :)

Some funnies ~

We were coming home from Augusta last night and Jackson was in his booster, but had his feet BEHIND his head. Mary Dalton said, "Jackson...look around the car. Do you see anyone else doing that? If the answer is no, then what you are doing is not age appropiate....so please stop."

(I swear she is a 30 yr old in a 7 yr old's body!)

Jackson: "Mama, what's that hangy down thing between your boobs that looks like a butt?"

I said, "Ummm...cleavage?"

Jackson:"Yeah! Cleavage! Well, I have been looking and why don't ALL girls have that? I mean, not ONE girl in K5 has that! They don't even have boobs!"

(Me ~ no repsonse!)

I let the kids stay here the other day while I ran to Dalton's parents house (don't worry...we are neighbors! but I have never let them stay home while I ran over to borrow something!) Anyway, they did not want to stop drawing so I told them that they could stay if they PROMISED to stay inside. We went over 500 "rules" about the phone, answering the door, etc. I locked them in and ran to Suz and Big's to borrow something. When I came home, I tried to "trick" them by knocking on the door. They did just what I told them and let me knock and knock and knock!

Anyway ~ I was telling my mom about them staying here and MDD said,

"You know, you really should have paid me for watching him that day! Even though it wasn't long, he is a handful!"

We are looking forward to cooler weather this weekend! mary dalton is going to a painting party and will be gone most of the day on Saturday. Jackson and I are going to dig up all our summer plants and start decorating for fall! We have lots to keep us busy until dalton is home!
