Update - Fall 2008
Okay, I am updating since this summer. We spent alot of time swimming this summer. Both of my boys are like little fish in the water, which scares me about Roman since he is only two. We went to Uncle Jim Mark's in Texas this summer to meet new baby Sidney (they spelled it differently, but I couldn't remember the correct spelling). Anyway, we went with Heather and Katie. The kids were amazing in the car b/c it was around a 14 hour drive with all the stops and all. Hopefully, we can go back with Daddy this winter so he can meet her as well.
Parker started preschool (2nd year) with Ms. Blayne. We LOVE Ms. Blayne. I especially adore her as she is from around my old stomping ground in Marianna. She used to teach 4th grade alternative students, so Parker is doing very well under her this year. :) He has already had Grandparents Day, which his Grandpa was the only grandfather there.
Roman is still going to Ms. Judy's during the day. It is just down to him, Wyatt and Kyson. The three amigos! I have started p/t with my job until we get our funding secured. I absolutely love the schedule as I am working mornings. I started out *practicing* for the 5K in October. I have been a little slacker the last week or so. Between Ms. Judy being on vacation and rainy days, I will have much to catch up on this week.
We spent Labor Day with Linda and Blake. Blake had to drive me to get ice cream. I was very surreal. I can't believe his is already old enough to drive. I love my little guy. Tamara, Jacob & Emily came over and visited and swam. The kids played really well together and we had so much fun. I do have to mention, in case any of my Conway friends here of this story you will know it was me, Parker, Roman and I were in Target in Conway. Roman decides he is going to have a 2 year old tantrum in the middle of the bedding aisle. He screamed bloody murder for 15 minutes. I told him we were not moving from that spot until he got happy. He eventually did, but not without letting everyone in the store know about it. I even had one stupid lady who just stood at the end of the aisle and stare at me the whole time. I wanted to say something really rude to her, but I just flashed a really big, fake smile at her. UGH!
Our hunting cabin burned down the other night. Not sure what happened. Very likely it was arson, but it could have just been an electrical problem. We are figuring out how to rebuild. Too bad, we will have to use our camper this hunting season.
Ike could have been worse, but we certainly didn't come out unscathed. We still had some corn in the field which alot was blown over. We had a lot of rice to pancake as well. The winds were incredible. I thought we were in a tornado when I woke up this morning.
We had our first Corning Youth Soccer game this weekend. None of us know what we are doing, but we had a great time doing it. Parker pouted the first half, but he decided he might want to play the second half. We have 4/5 year olds, which Jim is coaching. I will post more on that experience later. I will try to gather some pics for updates.
That is all I can think of for now....
