2008/2009 BASKETBALL SEASON

NOAH #51

JACOB #33

ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL TEST

Here's Noah doing his Bong weapon form. Yes, his weapon is really called a Bong.

I never thought I would be saying Noah, Bong and Weapon all in the same sentence... at least not when he's ten!



Here he is doing his break. I'm amazed everytime I see him do this.



Watch out world, he's half way to his black belt.

GEOGRAPHY BEE 2009

Jacob won 2nd place this year at the National Geography Bee. It was such an exciting night with good competition and extremely hard questions.

IT'S BEEN A GOOD DAY.... SO FAR.....

I had the privilege to vote today and didn't even have to wait in line. The boys even believed my threats and behaved like they should.

The nice lady at the voting place gave Elijah a piece of hard candy which he preceded to choke on it immediately. No Heimlich Maneuver was needed.

Starbucks gave me a free coffee just for voting today. It was good.

I got my butt out of bed and went jogging this morning. I didn't die like I thought I was going to.

It's a beautiful Fall day. The boys have been nicely playing outside for 10 whole minutes without a single act of violence towards each other .

The annoying computer calls have ended. I might answer the phone again.

Not a single bill in today's mail.

Gas and milk were both $2.19 today.

So far so good.
