School

Savannah is riding the bus this year and I think it is okay, I wish she would let me drive her, but she rides with the high school kids also, and she has been hearing a lot of swearing and I am sure not so nice talk on the bus. I don't know what to do, she says she just puts on her MP3 player and listens to it, she really wants to ride but I might make her just let me take her.
Savannah however is doing wonderful in school, she has the highest grade in math and science she actually received a coupon to Applebees for a free dinner for having the highest grade in her science class!! I am very proud of her for doing so well this first year in middle school!!
Sheridon is not doing as well as she usually does, her teacher says that 4th grade is a really hard grade, there is a lot of different things that they are introduced to and she is really struggling but she is happy and doesn't complain about going so I guess it is not bothering her to much. Her teacher this year is really good so I hope she will pull those grades up soon!!
Sadie is not doing very good, her teacher says that she can't just tell her to do something and walk away because she won't do it unless she is right there the whole time, and during story time she can't tell the teacher anything that she has just read even if the teacher has made it the most interesting thing. Sadie's teacher also said that she can't even concentrate to eat lunch, she has to keep reminding her to eat. I don't know what to do with Sadie, her teacher says it might just be immaturity or she may have ADHD like Savannah, so I am trying to decide what to do about it.
This year is going very different, but better than expected!!

I had my birthday.

Okay so I had my birthday, and I am not saying which one although I think everyone knows, and I have the best friends in the whole world. We were supposed to be working out on Friday morning and instead they threw me a party, total surprise to me, I feel so blessed to have such awesome friends!!
This birthday has been great all around, my in-laws got me a cake and some presents and I got two parties from friends, and Donovan and I got to go to a movie and dinner so that is always nice!!
I just want to thank everyone that made my birthday a great one!!!!!

One more year closer to double didgits!!

Sheridon is 9!!!!! I am not sure I was ready for this one, I still think of her as a 6yr old. Where does the time go? I love this little girl so much she is a great sister and helps me out a lot by keeping the peace and playing almost non-stop with Sadie. I am so blessed to have her in my life!!

Sheridon had a wonderful party, the high light was Grandma, Grandpa, and Uncle Aaron there for it. She played outside the whole time with her friends and cousins and my friend who is a paramedic came while she was working so she had the ambulance with her, that was a lot of fun for the kids I think. They stuck Sheridon's friend Megyn to the gurney and I don't think she could get up even if she wanted to. We had hamburgers, hot dogs, and lots of cake, it was a lot of fun!!!

Mom, Dad, and Aaron visit.

Mom, Dad and Aaron came to visit this August, Dad and Aaron helped me make a new path to the front door, it is beautiful, I put the little rocks in between later but Dad and Aaron shoveled all the dirt out of there and Aaron carried all the big rocks from the truck to the pathway, Dad spread out the sand before we put the rock down, it was a lot of work and I am so thankful that I have a Dad and brother that would be willing to do something like that for me, and with no complaining!! I love you Dad, and Aaron!!
We went up to Jane and Don's for a game and some dinner, we had a great time talking and playing. Donovan had to work on the goat house though so he missed out on the game. I think everyone had a great time, Don said he had good memories from the game and enjoyed himself, and I enjoyed watching my two families play together while helping Donovan. I am so glad that my mom, and dad, and Aaron came to visit!! I love them so much!!
