Happy Halloween

Yeah, for Halloween for FINALLY getting here. Reasons I wanted Halloween to hurry up:

1. October will be over and November is HERE

2. Trick or Treating

3. Closer to Thanksgiving

4. Don't have to look at costumes in the stores anymore

5. Addi and Karter dressing up

6. CANDY, CANDY, CANDY

Today, I have to go to work still. This should count as a Holiday or something. Don't all you teachers agree!! :) But tonight, we will give candy to any trick or treaters. And their will be few. Then go to TRUNK or TREAT at church. Yeah, for more candy. I will post pictures of Addi and Karter later.

What a wonderful weekend!

On Friday night, I got to see my two best friends from Phi Lamb college days. It was so much fun to catch up on everybody's lives. Phi Lamb was having a Barn Dance. Everything was decorated so cute, and of course John Wayne was there. How awesome is that. If you have already read Chelsey's blog, you already know all of this. But I absolutely love getting to see Chelsey and Jacque. I love you girls. I will post some pictures later. I think I have a few different ones from Chelsey.

On Saturday, we had our first basketball scrimmage in Coleman. I am the JV basketball coach. They don't keep score at scrimmages, but we did really well. We have our next scrimmage today in Sonora. Wish us luck. Saturday Night, the school had their Halloween Carnival. Jason and I worked the DUCK POND. It was so fun getting to see all the little kids in their Halloween costumes. Then we went to the BINGO game. The coaches have to work it. We stayed their until after midnight.

On Sunday, we went to Sunday School, and then went to the Wall Brethren Church because Jason's sister was giving a talk about the ministry she is involved in. She volunteers at the Pregnancy Help Center. It is a place that is pro-life, and do not support any types of abortions, but rather other support to carry the baby. There is a statistic that says, if a woman can see the baby, they are least likely to get an abortion. So the center now has a sonogram machine donated by the Wall Brethren church, and in just the few months Haley has been working there, they have saved 35 lives. It just gives me goosebumps when I think about it. How awesome is that. I could go, on and on, about it.

That pretty much sums up our weekend.

YUCK!

This is what our kitchen looked liked this morning because we did not have water for 1.5 days. Our water went out Saturday night during supper, and it came back on Monday morning. So the dishes are dirty from supper Saturday night, then I made cookies, and cups and bowls from all day Sunday. YUCK!! It makes the whole house stink. Something else that stinks is that this happens about every other week.

So, I had planned all day to come home and get started on the dishes, and guess what????? Yes, my wonderful husband had already done them. He is absolutely AMAZING.

Here is a pic. This is not the actual mess, but similar.

Tag You're It!

I've been tagged by Susan. I've been instructed to write 7 things about myself, strange, crazy, funny but all true.

1. I love the fresh, clean smell of Bleach.

2. I love taking hot baths.

3. I ask Jason alot if we can have a baby ... sometimes he says sure, sometimes he says later!! I can't wait until we are pregnant! (I stole this from Susan. Hey, maybe we could be pregnant together.)

4. I am really good at making Jason mad.

5. I love spending time with Addi and Karter.

6. I am a really silly and goofy person.

7. I love going to parties.

I tag Stephanie and Chelsey.

RUNAWAY HOT DOG

I know you are thinking "WHAT?" Yes, that is correct a runaway hot dog. My kids at school really make me laugh sometimes. I get to school this morning and walk in the gym, and on one wall I have three posters up "GO" "SLOW" and "WHOA". This is were we hang different foods up, and we decide if they are go foods, slow foods, or whoa foods. Anyways, the hot dog was missing from the WHOA poster. At first I was upset and I still am kind of, but I really started having fun with it. I told them, "We had a hot dog on the loose." "And it was kidnapped sometime between the hours of 7am-8am. " They were all laughing so hard because it is funny to think about a hot dog being on the LOOSE. So I reminded everybody to be on the lookout for the RUNAWAY HOT DOG!! So if you see it let us know! :)

Little kids are so cute!!! .............................................................. SOMETIMES!!!

Sometimes they can be a pill!

Oh yeah, and I told y'all I was bad at posting on this thing!!

Yeah, for October Being Here!!!

I am so glad it is October!! October, November, and December may be my favorite months of the year. I absolutely love the weather change (which it hasn't yet), and the holidays coming up.

But right now, school and life is keeping us completely busy, and it is only going to get worse. In about a week, we start practicing basketball after school, so that will make for later nights for me. I am really enjoying my P.E. classes. For the most part, the kids are precious and cute, and say some really funny things. But there are always are few that have to put a dent in the fun things. You'll know what I'm talking about, if you are a teacher. So, it makes the days go by really long when the kids are acting bad. It is a constant fight with some of them to get them to behave. :) And I think this week has been worse because I have not been prepared as good as I should have been so that increases the discipline problems when I am not on top of my game! I am already working better for next week.

Well, hope you all had a great week. AND guess what tomorrow is,

FABULOUS FRIDAY!!

HARVEST

Before church last week, we stopped by one of Jason's fields and took pictures in the cotton. It is not white yet, but still really pretty and big. The crops this year are unbelievably good because their has been so much rain not just ours but everybody. It is a constant reminder how God blesses us and watches over us. He is absolutely amazing.
