Football and Popcorn

Today was a hectic day with an out of town photo shoot. I love each session and they are all great, but after driving two hours to find out that there was no session I was a little sad. I still had to drive home and there was a lot that I could have done with that time. Oh well, it gave me some me time and the mileage is a deductible so I will not complain. There was a blessing in there, I just have to find it.
Brandon got the yard cut and ready for the decorations. Front and back are done. He will probably do it one more time, but overall we are ready at least on the outside. YAY! While cleaning out the boys' garden they found a watermelon, actually 2 and a VERY small cucumber. The boys thought it was great. While I am not sure that they will be good to eat, the joy it brought them was great. Hopefully next time they will take better care of their garden.
We watch the Auburn game, which was not as good as I was hoping but I love screaming WAR EAGLE! The boys in orange and blue make me smile. They are a growing team, and growing pains are a fact of life. I am proud of what they have accomplished and know that there will be more.
We headed out and started the popcorn delivery today. We still have a good bit to go, but we are making progress which is all we can do. I hope to finish it up this week, but it could be next weekend. We shall see what the week brings.

Boosterthon Kick Off



Today was a great day, still not up when I wanted to be, but again we were on time which is what I care about the most. While I might not be ahead at least I am not behind.
This morning was Mass with the boys which is my favorite day of the school week. Yes, it means I do not get as much done at the house, but what it does means cannot be outdone. Getting to spend an hour with my boys and Jesus in the middle of the week is jut amazing. It is a day that allows me to regroup, and remember what is important and why. It allows me to look at my many blessings and be thankful.
At 2:00 there was a pep rally at the school. This year our fundraiser is the boosterthon fun run and today was the kick off. It was great. Those guys are truly great with kids and have a great energy about them. You can tell that they truly enjoy what they do. The boys are definitely pumped about this and are ready to get sponsors. If you are interested let me know ;)
After school today was our cub scout den meeting. This is the one that I run with the 3rd grade boys. Usually we go outside and run some energy off but with the rain we were inside but the energy was still there. The meeting started off great, but by the end of the meeting the boys were wild. It ended in me telling them that I did not have to do this and would not continue if they could not show me some respect. We will see how the December meetings go.
After the meeting there was popcorn to be sorted. Brandon left work and went to get it and Tonya came back to help me get it all sorted out. So thankful for her help and her organizational skills. She is great! Now we have to get it all delivered and the money collected. Hopefully we will get a start on it this weekend. Maybe we will make some real progress with getting it done.
Well, I am off to bed. Posting pictures tomorrow. Know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers.
