HYSTERICAL (only to a mother)

Take a gander at this "sweet" conduct notice that Porter brought home today.

It absolutely made me chuckle. So it's sent from the music teacher.

The line marked "Always do your best" has a check mark next to it and then below that the teacher wrote "Doing handstands in music class"

It was all I could do to stop laughing- gain my composure and ask Porter about it.

When I did, he enlightened me with HIS version of the story.

He tripped and therefore landed in what looked like a handstand position where in the music teacher said "Porter you need to stop horsing around"...Porter then looks at me and in all seriousness says "and Mom, I wasn't even trying to be a horse"

CLASSIC!

this ones a keeper

Riga-ma-rolls

Oh look how big my baby boy has grown!

{sniff sniff}

He's almost out of his infancy.

I can't believe how fun he has been.

He's turning out to be such a good boy. All potty trained (mostly except on horribly rainy days)

He literally follows ME around the house like a little "puppy dog"

He is such a cute doggy!

We love you RIGAMAROLLS!

(we have not officially changed his name from Rigby but we often call him Rigamarolls)

Did I mention that Garrett made the "A" team for 8th Grade?

Yup, he did. Starting long snapper and safety!

Football season is my Faaaaav!

Go Mustangs

Go Eagles

Go Longhorns

Porter's First at Football

If i gotta cheer for the Longhorns it's gonna

be for this little guy!

Port-man is playing flag football this year.

He's loving it and momma is loving one more game of football

added to the mix!

p.s. Good thing they require those sweet helmets this year :)

and good thing Porter did wrestling last fall so he's used to it.

First Day of School---

I missed getting Kado in the morning but here he is after his first day of school

Go Team Meerkat! ha ha

G- the big 8th Grader
Port-man heading to 1st Grade
Elle-Belle getting so grown up--5th Grade

HAPPY FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL 2010-2011

Changes...

The Lord truly hears our prayers and answers them in sometimes really clever ways! For the past several months I've been worried about what I would do once Porter started 1st grade. Should I look for a job, volunteer more at the school, spend time doing who knows what...but the Lord had a different "job" in mind!I was called to be Primary President

oh dear...

I'm super excited, overwhelmed, grateful, blessed, thankful,

and really looking forward to some great personal growth!
