Making it Happen

This morning after I dropped the boys off I hung out at the school.  I was meeting with Michael Wells from the Boy Scouts so that he could Rally the boys and get them interested in scouting.  Our scout night is tomorrow night so the more we can get to be interested the better for our pack, we grow every year and we are looking forward to everything that this year has to offer.  Mr. Wells was great the boys seem really excited and so am I. 
I was able to get a good bit done at home, but today was concentrated more on homework and editing pictures.  I have to alternate days so that I can alternate how long I am on the computer each night, it is definitely not easy, but I will be done next year and it will be so worth it.  I hope. 
The boys' had a great day at school which always makes my day.  John Michael said that all his first grade friends were excited about scouting.  Danny said that he made a 97 on his Alabama History test, which is awesome since he was freaking out last night while we were studying.  He is a lot like me in the sense that he is his own worst critic. I wish he was not so hard on himself.

John Michael and Samantha had fun decorating the driveway with chalk.  It looks great!  She is definitely a better artist than I am. 

Monday Already?

So today was a great day, but I seriously miss the weekend. 
My to do list seems to be growing every day.  I am thinking that the to do list needs a to do list, maybe that would make it easier. 
Everyone is watching the weather to see what Isaac does but it looks like the biggest problems will be flooding.  We will definitely be praying for everyone along the coast as Isaac makes his way to land.
John Michael had his first project due today, well actually if you count his summer project it is number two.  I had to find some pictures though and they were shoved in a box so befor we left this morning I was ripping open boxes like a mad woman.  Needless to say when I got home I tried to make it look a little better but I am not sure how successful I was.  I need a cabinet and a book shelf so if anyone has something like that they do not need let me know I will definitely take it off your hands.  Mass chaos is not fun especially when it is in my office. 

We came home and the boys actually agreed to a quick picture with the sidewalk chalk I got for them.  They are so funny!
