Bottle of energy please!
Can we please figure out how to bottle up kids extra energy?? I sure could use some of Molly's today! It always seems like we adults could use some extra and the little ones tend to have to much let's really try to work on that!!

What a weekend!!
I was talking to my friend Michelle online yesterday and i knew we were kinda busy yesterday and she asked me what I had done Saturday...well apparently I am getting old...because I could not for the life of me recall and assumed we hadn't done anything! Well was further from the truth as I quickly told her!! Saturday my parents picked up Nick and Joe to help them with some remodeling work in the kitchen. Molly had slept in a bit so she took her time getting ready. Paul was out working and Molly and I went to Kohls and we picked Nick 2 pairs of jeans,one pair for each of the boys of athletic style pants and i saw a nice looking sweater/shirt that I thought Nick might like! Bonus! Both the boys liked it so I may get a few more! Then Molly and I headed to Borders for their Spooktacular Halloween party and Paul met us there. Another surprise is we saw my Sister -in Law Chris' brother and his family! That was nice!! Molly also won the Kidz Bop Halloween CD in a raffle! She was thrilled!!! My parents brought the boys up to Borders to see the Extreme Pumpkin Carving guy that was fun! Now on to our Extreme Pumpkin Carving! Yesterday after church and lunch we took the kids to Blakes for cider and donuts and pumpkins! we got out of there only spending 30 bucks! We walked way far away from the corn maze,hay stack climbing thing and all that other stuff where they charge you just for walking through!!!Heres some photos!! I love Mollys funny sticking out her tongue photo!!!Ok I think I need to add a second post to put up the carving photos

second post of the day!
Don't forget to scroll down to see my other post! We went to Frankenmuth Saturday to celebrate Nick and my dad's birthday! We took the kids on a horse and buggy ride! Molly loves going on them! We humor her!!Yay! I learned how to get words first and pictures last lol!! only took me almost a year lol!!!
What's been going on
Well FINALLY soccer is done for the fall season!! Paul and I were chuckling over how when it started we need the bug spray because the mosquitoes were so very bad...now when it ended we needed our winter coats and mittens it got so chilly!!!Joe has also started his confirmation classes at church and Youth classes have started on Wednesday nights.
School seems to be going well for all three! We should be getting the boys progress reports in this coming week. Nick has requested that if he maintains an A average all year that we reward him with an Ipod Touch. i told him that IF we reward him with 10 dollars an A that he can save his own money and buy one. But that it was a very strong IF! We have not decided if we are doing cash rewards this year. I am really enjoying helping in Molly's class! Friday was Pumpkin Math and Science day so me and a few other parents brought in Pumpkins,scoops,a scale, and kid safe carving tools. It was lots of fun! We "taught" the group we were with and the teacher got to enjoy"supervising us" and taking photos! If I get any with Molly I will share them here!I also have been helping out on Tuesdays, I'm not sure if that will my day throught the year or if it will change! I LOVE being able to help out in one of my kids classes again! it's been to many years since the boys were that little and I helped out in thiers!

October already!
Wow!! Hard to believe!!!
I have not been writing much, just not a lot to say I guess!! Kids have been busy with school. The boys both seem to be doing really well in school. Molly has adjusted to kindergarten! I think she's nice and comfortable now! The first few weekly progress reports she got all excellent. The one she brought home yesterday for Listening and behavior she got "Good" instead of "Excellent" so yup, shes settling in!! Hahaha
I took her to a Daisy Scout meeting and she wanted nothing to do with it! Thats fine with me!! She will just be as Paul and all the other Boy Scout people call her a "Bubble Scout" and she will continue earning badges that the boys create for her!
