Freakishly TALL?

For those of you that know Tyler he is FUNNY....he says the FUNNEST things without trying to be funny. He has a answer to everything and a smart mouth (yes, he is a mini me:)
I was at my parent last weekend and my dad said I found the picture of when you went to Washington DC in the 6th grade. So I looked at the picture and was SHOCKED to find out I was in the 6th grade 35 years ago...hello I am only 29 so how can that be?
So I look for me and say to the kids "can you find me" Nicholas just laughed and said you had emos (sp) back then...I said NO and he said YES YOU DID. Neither kid was having much luck finding me so I said I am in the back row. Tyler said that is the teacher row...I said and the tall kids..he said that is YOU. "WHY ARE YOU SO FREAKISHLY TALL" and LAUGHED SO HARD. He has brought neighbor kids in the house to show them the picture of his FREAKISHLY TALL MOM. I know I have always been tall but I am sorry no one has ever called me FREAKISHLY tall till now. Can I tell you how hard my dad laughed too!!
*I am in the back row next to the teacher:)
**When I wanted to wear a shoe with a HEEL on it my mom would say to me "what do you want to do, eat soup off of other peoples heads" Then I did not think it was funny...now it makes me laugh!
***For those of you that have been asking my mom is not doing well at ALL. She is sleeping most of the day, not eating at all and getting weaker. My neice that lives in Atlanta was up this week and she had a really hard time seeing her. We know she has gotten worse since FL but that was the last time Lindsey has seen her so it was a real shock to her. Keep praying she does not have to suffer..we just do not want her to be in pain.

Happy Birthday to MY DEAR HUSBAND

BuNcO

Well, last night was BuNcO and YES fun was had by ALL!! Too much GOOD food, Way to many laughs and Lots of BuNcO's.
The winners of the night were....drum roll please...
*Most Buncos was a tie between Bev and Kathy and BEV won in the 2nd roll off they had to ROLL.
*Most Wins was KATHY.
*Last Bunco was TRACY aka *itch.
*Most Losses was SAMANTHA who was subbing for Denise.

Funny part of last night as ALL the bunco stuff is at Jo's so thank gosh I looked before they got here so I had to go buy Dice...Jo (or is it MARK) still has the BuNcO boa and troll so we made do with SpongeBob FLAT face after BEV kept sitting on him and then TRACY decided he needed to be *reast feed.

School Days School Days...dear old wonderful....

Actually I am not ready for school to start BUT both of my kids are. I guess being home with THE MOM made them realize how fun school is. Nicholas (8th) is ALL about the social part and Tyler (4th) just LOVES school. Here is our 2007/2008 back to school picture holding up fingers for what grade they are in. Nicholas said do I really STILL have to do this!!!
*Also in the picture is Riley and Nicholas with "Andrew" between them...I told them NEXT year he will be back for the picture....hear that TIM!!!
**DUH...I just realized that Nicholas did not have his fingers up YET!!

***Sooo what did the mom do today? Went to the Bank, Verizon, Outlet Mall:) and Tropical Smoothie for my kids are back at school and I am still home smoothie...aka Cranberry Crush!

Honk, for the end of SUMMER

This is what came to my door today.....

Nicholas has a friend, RILEY, who is FUNNY. This is what he came to my door in and this is how Nicholas left with him. The middle kid is a little smarter then the other 2.
Tomorrow school starts and this is their last Hoopla!!

*I think Ty had a good Birthday. He had 5 boys spend the night on Wednesday and they PLAYED, SWAM and ATE CANDY, PIZZA, CANDY, ICE CREAM CAKE and MORE CANDY!! Today Hank took him to breakfast as I have been at my moms for the last few days and tomorrow I am going back early and spending Sunday night there and Hank is bringing Nicholas and Tyler in the afternoon for a while.
Tuesday the kids go back to school and I can honestly say I am not ready for them to go back at ALL. It is TO HOT and TOO SOON.

My Mom Update

We have been spending more time in Cinti since Swim if done for a few weeks. We had planned to go down today but yesterday she had really bad day so I ended up going down and staying all day. She was so confused and sleeping most of the day. TODAY she was a different person!!! This was the best day I have seen her have in a while and it was WONDERFUL!!! She was awake most of the time we were there....she ate a litte (and I do been a LITTLE). Hospice said she will have good and bad days and we are so THANKFUL for the good days. It was a great family day and we are ALL happy with each one we get.
