First Day of school & other happenings...



Yesterday was the firt day of school... ((Im late sharing this I know... but soon you will find out why...))

Its hard to believe that I have a Freshman ... a 7th grader... a 1st grader & Bella is in PreK! Where has the time gone! I remember when that freshman boy was heading off to his first day of Kindergarden crying his eyes out for me... & now he is almost a man!

& little Miss Bella...

She did great for her first time away from me... a little worried at first but she warmed up real quick...


I think I was much more worried than she was... & I cryed all the way home...

My Big first grader was super ready to start the school year... & even tho he was worried that he would "HATE" 1st grade he hopped in the van & told me all about his rocking first day as a 1st grader! ((he even loved Mrs Cruise... surprise!))



And even more exciting than the first day of school... was the 6 hour stay in the emergancy room with London due to a severe hip sprain durring football practice... I still say my baby is too little for football! but what do I know!! He is mayjorly depressed about it cuz he will miss the first real game & have to be on crutches for a week or so... but I am so thankful it is just a sprain... & I am PRAYING that tonight we wont have any surprises... 3 nights in a row with little to no sleep starts getting to girl!

okay... off to nap!

Are you ready for some WildCat FOOTBALL!

Well, its finally here... football season is upon us & the testosterone in my house has quadrupled!!!

Friday night was Londons scrimmage... & he was a little nervous you could tell... but all in all he did awesome!
((He's #24))

It took all I had to NOT scream "THATS MY BOY!!!"... when I thought he was doing something good... cuz lets face it... I know NOTHING about football... I just thought it was awesome he was out there holding his own!

Dad couldnt make it to the scrimmage... he had to cater a HUGE event that night... however he kept texting me through out the game & asking me questions about the run route & other things I had NO idea what they were! (TeeHee)


The actual season starts in a couple of weeks... & then it will be like running a taxi service back & forth to games all over the place... but I think I will love every minute of it... cuz I am a MOMMA CAT... its what we do best!


Go Cats!!

Following in my footsteps....


When I put the pastery Chef hat on she too wants to be a pastery chef...
And when I am sitting for hours making jewelry for other little girls she never once complains... she just wants beads, or clay or whatever else I am working with...
This weekend Daddy was gone... off to rock out at OzFest with his buddys... & the brothers all had friends over to keep them busy... so the princess & I snuck off in the evenings for pedicures & to the bead shop where she picked out lovely rainbow fiberoptic beads & 2 sweet ladybugs so we could make bestfriend bracelets...
I only have a week left with her... & then she will be off to school & new BFFs & adventures of her own... & when I think about it my heart breaks.
I wont be taking it off anytime soon... she wont let me... but everytime I look at it I am reminded of just how much she sees... & watches me & of how much I will miss her.

I Scream... You Scream....

WE ALL SCREAM FOR ICE CREAM!!!


The screams resonated through the house..."I hear the Ice Cream Man!!!!" OMG... the ice cream man... NO WAY!!!

I am at times a tad leary of the ice cream man... Ive seen far to many horror flicks & watch way to much Dateline... but how could I keep my kids from this summers right of passage...
Everytime we hear the little song coming down the street one kiddo runs to stop the van & I am pulling every dollar bill I can find out of my purse & yesterday pair of jeans!
& each time they all get the same things!...


& Its always worth it....



Happy Summer!
