Monday, June 21, 2010 It was such an exciting day for JJ. He left with his cub scout troop at 6:30am for the Jeremiah Johnson Scout Day Camp. JJ has never done anything like this before so I was a little nervous about how he would handle it - but I shouldn't have worried. He came home about 2pm with a huge smile on his face! His leader told me how amazing he did today and that he actually started initiating conversations with the other boys and just trying and doing his best at everything. I'm so proud of him!

Monday, May 31, 2010 Joey's mom left very early this morning and we didn't even get to say goodbye - but we were glad she made it safely to Wyoming. We spent this Memorial Day being very lazy. Joey and I played/worked on our computers and the kids played and watched movies. Joey did do some work outside and got our swamp cooler working and some pipe connections fixed.

Beth was so excited until we ... [Read More]
Life 365 | Week 22
Monday, May 24, 2010 This is what our morning-afternoon looked like! I couldn't believe it when I looked out the door. The end of May and we are still getting snow storms. JJ went off to school - Joey went off to work - and Bethie (who is still not feeling good) and I stayed home. Tuesday, May 25, 2010 JJ's Scout Pack Meeting was tonight. They talked about collections and they got to bring their collections with them. JJ is getting quite the collection of Cars Collectibles. His scout leader gave him a new "Doc" (it has eyes that move) and I gave him a new "Lightning McQueen" (that changes color in warm water) for tonight. He was so excited! Wednesday, May 26, 2010 JJ's school does a Dance Festival every year and this JJ's second year to participate. This year he did a "Hat Dance" with ... [Read More]
