Toes

There has been nothing but BOY things going on at my house this week. Between Luke and Gage it has been testosterone-fest! So…I treated Grayson to a pedicure last night as a girlie treat to ourselves! She LOVED it!! Needless to say, I think this will be our thing!

3 kids

The last week I have been keeping Cody’s kids. Needless to say it has been nuts around my house! But so much fun!! :)Gage playing in Luke’s gear! So funny!Cody had a long day at work! Poor guy!! :)

I am exhausted but it was such a great week! Getting some quality time with all three of the kids! And they get along so well!! It makes it easy!

5 weeks….

….from today will be the first day of school. Where in the world did the summer go????  I am usually starting to get ideas together for my classroom by now. But I am having the hardest time trying to figure out what to make the theme in my room this year. Do any of you have any ideas??? I am getting a few units together for the first couple of months but that is about it!!

Next week, we have a Great Expectations workshop. Maybe I will get some ideas there!

Probably the first week of August, I will be able to get in my classroom to do some work! Hopefully I will get some motivation and ideas by then!!

Luke’s Haircut

I met mom and Sister in Norman a couple of weeks ago. Luke decided he wanted a haircut. He was so big in the chair!

Mom and I.  We were arguing over what the haircut needed to look like! :)

My big boy!! We will be going to the salon from now on!!

If you haven’t been to Sea World lately, I suggest you go!!

One of the best...

I have a millon pictures to share with you from our Sea World trip... However, this is one of the best... My sweet boy!!!

The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly

The Good:

I went to Norman today to meet mom and Sister. They were getting their hair done. The whole reason I went was to find some dress pants on sale for school this fall. Guess what?? I was wearing a size 6 or 8 last fall depending on the brand. I was hoping to squeeze into a size 4 this time since I know I have lost some weight. HOWEVER...The 4s were too big and I got my backside nicely into a size 2.. Needless to say this girl is thrilled!!!!!

The Bad:

Cody left today for Hawaii and I am going to miss him like crazy!!!!!!

The Ugly:

On the way to Norman today, I took the Norman Spur. Well I forgot you had to have exact coins. Well I had cash but couldn't find a coin to save my life. So I tried to back up out of the way of any other cars that might be coming. So here I am digging for coins in my purse and trying to back up. Needless to say, I hit the daggum pole behind me... Left this lovely gash in my car. Once I got backed up, I got out to look at the damage thinking it couldn't have been that bad. Maybe a little scratch. When I saw this I almost puked on the side of the road. I couldn't believe I could be so careless. I am a great driver. No wrecks. No tickets. Nothing... And now this. I guess I will be going to see an autobody shop this week and see what the damage to my wallet will be!!

Happy 4th Ya'll!!! :)

Reminiscing

Cody leaves for Kauai on Saturday. He'll be gone for 7 days. Of all the places we went while we were in Hawaii in March, Kauai was my favorite!! I am so jealous!!!!

This was a pic from a beach in Kauai. Oh Hawaii's sand and sun! How I miss you! :)

Marval Trip #3

Cody and I went to Gore last weekend to Marvals to pick up his truck that broke down last week. Which means we also got some fishing in! :)

I caught this lovely 13lbs striper.. :)

Kids flock to Cody! This group loved watching him filet the fish.
He was getting the livewell in the boat ready for some shad. He had us up about 5:30 every morning fishing! :)

This group of kids caught a fish and they and their dad couldn't figure out what it was. So they asked Cody to identify it! It was so funny!

Our striper! :)

The most important thing we learned on our trip this weekend was deer whistle!! LOL.... Told to us by a lovely gentleman. I thought Cody and I were going to fall out laughing!!

Well this coming weekend, Cody leaves for Hawaii and then next Tuesday my family heads to Sea World!! :) Going to be fun!! I can't wait!

SEAWORLD

My parents are taking me, Luke, Sister, Grayson and themselves to Sea World July 5-8. I can't wait. I have been wanting to take Luke anyways. I had him watching Shamu videos on youtube this morning. He loved it! I can't wait until he sees it in person!!

Thank you mom and dad!! :)

Cody and I are also headed back to Marval's this weekend. Pray for safe travels! :)

Marval - Trip #2

Cody took his kids and met part of the family at Marval's this weekend. Luke and I decided to drive up and hang out with them for Father's Day. We got up there on Friday night and played for a little while before going to bed. It's a good thing we got some rest because Saturday was jam packed with activity! Cody got up about 5:30 and went fishing. I stayed with the kids. We got up about 7:00. We laid around for a little bit then got dressed and went to play in the river. I cooked breakfast about the time Cody got back from fishing.

Cody and his 3 striper. One 18 lbs and two 15 lbs

Gage after he ccaught his 6th trout!! :)

Luke and Grace playing with Gage's minnows! Gma and Pa...
Fishing with Cody Luke got to man a pole for a few minutes while they were taking a trout off another pole. He was thrilled! Cody let him reel this one in.. :) Me and Grace Father and son. Gage is one heck of a fisherman. He caught more trout than anyone!

Me and Luker

Painting a dinosaur in the arts and crafts center!

We had such a good time this weekend! I am looking forward to many more trips like this one! :)

Catfish

Cody and I went fishing last night. He is so fabulous!! And do I need to mention I caught the biggest fish of the night. :) I didn't get any of us fishing but I got a couple of him cleaning them! We fried them up when he got done and had dinner! It was great!! :)

This explains it all...

Oh Luke. How I will have pics to embrass you with when you are older! :)
