Happy Birthday to the Marines





So this morning made it a official trend for the week, we were on time but not as early as I wanted to be up and getting to work. I can get so much done in the extra hour or two in the morning, but this week that just was not in the cards. Probably because I am staying up editing so late. Maybe next week I will be on a better schedule.





While the boys were in school this morning I got some laundry done, dinner started....chilli in the crock pot, some of the van cleaned out, and the downstairs bathroom cleaned. While it was no where near what I was hoping to accomplish it was something and a few more check marks on the list, which is definitely important. Moving forwards and not backwards.





Today is the Marine's birthday. This is a day that was always special to my daddy, considering he was a Marine.





Today was the Veteran's Day program at the school. This is a program that is great to go to. The student's at St. Francis are taught to thank all veterans and this program is a little way for them to give back to them. It is just a special day. I helped the Home and School board get the refreshments out and ready for the veteran's that attended. There is a small reception afterwards for them just to say thank you. John Michael's class sang Marching in the Lord's Army. It was so cute. Danny's class along with the 4th and 5th grade sand This Land Is My Land. It was great. I am so thankful that I am able to be there for the boys when they are doing something special. After the program was over, the Veteran's were headed home, and the refreshment area was cleaned I headed to take the remaining things to the office and to get the boys.





After school we met the Tiger Cub leader so that she could get the popcorn for her parents. The Wolves were given their's at their den meeting tonight. Now the money collection can be completed. Then we came home, got homework done and then just enjoyed the rest of the day. Well, night. When Brandon came home we ate dinner. It was pretty good, the boys' were not too hungry but they had been snacking.





Everyone is excited about the long weekend. I have several photo shoots and I am looking forward to them all. Each shoot is unique and so much fun.





Well, I am going to edit a few more pictures and go to bed. Considering it is almost midnight and I have to be in Hoover in the morning I do not know that I will be too much later. Know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers.
