Jammed Fingers

So today was progressing nicely when my phone rang. Danny jammed his fingers today on the playground. I went to get him, because I know that it hurt, and he just needed some TLC from his momma. He did have to miss basketball practice and getting his pinewood derby car. The rule no school no fun had to be used. He did not seem to mind so I know he was in pain. Thank you so much Tonya for getting his car cut for us!

John Michael had a good day at school and was excited to see Danny after school. He is not a fan of sitting in the car for an hour after school waiting for Danny. This will be the last year though, next year they will be in school together and I cannot express how excited I am for this to happen!

So I have to explain the pictures, first my new favorite candle scent and believe it or not it came from Walmart. I am not a huge fan but every once in a while I venture in. I went in last month for After Christmas Sales anyway, I ventured down the clearance isle and fell in love!!! In cleaning out the den I finally found it so I decided it deserved a picture since Honeysuckle is just one of my favorite scents. It takes me back to so many memories of being young!

My second picture is of these awesome coke cans. Now I am not a huge fan of buying just stuff to add clutter, but I had to have these. Now I will only keep one, Danny cannot wait to drink them so I will probably just keep one.

Anyway, I know that it is short today, but I am exhausted and since the boys are asleep I am headed there myself. I will as always say a prayer for all of my family and friends, I know that there are so many intentions spoken and not.

Good night and I am excited about Friday and finishing the den with the help of Brandon and spending some time outside this weekend.

Basketball...Haircuts...GREAT WEATHER!!!!

Well, today was quite a day! We had a lot to do and a lot going on, but it was a great one!

First, I want to sing praises for the amazing weather. I could not have drawn a better January Saturday! If only it would stay, there is a lot more winter. Hopefully not a lot more winter weather though! I was able to get the van cleaned, inside and out and that alone made me feel wonderful! I have been trying to get it done and today I just did it, with the help of the family!

Danny had another basketball game. This one was against the other OLS team and the SFX Saints won again. The final score was 23-2. These boys play so well together and have a great time. Danny played well especially considering that his finger was jammed after throwing the football around Friday night with Brandon. Brandon felt horrible, but it is doing better. Still sore and black and blue, but it is better. I felt horrible because I forgot my camera. They only have a few more games so I cannot do it again. The thing was we were running late, and when I remembered it was afraid if we turned around we would be even later, it worked out that we were 10 minutes early. Go figure. Oh well, there are reasons for everything.

Tomorrow morning the children's choir is singing at Mass so it should be great! I will remember my camera. Maybe I will put it in the van tonight.

We came home tonight and Brandon wanted to cut his hair, Danny wanted him to cut his, and then my rock star John Michael wanted his cut too! Well, they all have matching haircuts now! It is so sweet and I do like it, but he looks so much older now. They grow up so fast! Prior to matching haircuts, they got matching head lights today and were super excited!!! Check out the before and after pics for John Michael!!!

Well, still not before 9 but it will happen! SOON! Before I head to bed as always I will be praying for all of my family and friends. I love you all. I hope that you have all been able to enjoy this weekend and that it continues to be great for all of us and all of you!
