Motorcycles, Hunting and Cute Kids!

Trent's annual, I won't draw, but do every year so far hunt, was unsuccessful for him. I am so sad:) and also lying. Kim, his brother, was successful at bagging a deer only one hour after making camp.

Brenden got his first motorcycle. My brother Keven restored this little Suzuki and Brenden gets to ride it until he outgrows it. It then will be passed to my little nephew Kyler. Boy's and their toys.



Cute girls and silly faces. Who could ask for more? Maggie's class won a pizza and pajama party at school for the most reading minutes. Here is her outfit.

Swine Flu anyone? Fall clean out

Brenden had the swine flu! He as the only one that was lucky enough to get it. The rest of us are so disappointed, NOT! He was so sick. 101.4 degree fever, body aches, headache and a horrible cough. Coughs though Codeine cough syrup, unreal. I have been an OUST fool. Spraying everything. He soon got the spraying addiction. The house reeked constantly, but it was sterile. He finally went back to school Tuesday. He came off the anti-viral medicine and right on to the anti-bacterial meds, because now, he has a sinus infection. Does it ever stop?

I love FALL! The colors are amazing, it is not quite as hot, life seems to be at a slower pace, but it also means cleaning out the summer clothes and digging out the sweaters. I have spent the last two days white gloving the kids bedrooms. (They can only clean their own rooms for so long and then the mom has to intervene to make sure it gets REALLY clean.) I also went though every drawer. We pulled out the clothes that were too small, made a can wear next summer pile, and brought out all the winter clothes. It was a lot of work, but nice to have done.

While I was upstairs doing the kids room, I also white gloved the kids bathroom. Are you serious! I about through up. Does anyone have any advice on how to train an ELEVEN year old on how to hit the INSIDE of the toilet? As of now, he has to sit his butt down. Nasty!
