Children's Museum

Shon and I took the day off on Friday and took the boys to the new Children's Museum in Greenville. It was awesome. They both had a great time. The car section was of course their favorite (I have NO idea where they get that from).














They had a control room where the boys got to do their on weather cast.















We always have to do one silly picture and then one semi-serious one. Sorry the first one is blurry...





Tomorrow is our first day of school. John will begin 3rd grade. Pictures to come...

Movie Night

Last night during dinner John proposed that we have a weekly movie night. First, he said Friday's, then Thursday and then because it was Wednesday he decided we could start last night. (Daddy is not allowed on the computer during this time!) He chose Prince Caspian as our first weekly movie. We then had to proceed to pick out 10 movies for the next 10 weeks each of us taking turns picking one. He got out notebook paper and wrote them down in order of our intended viewing. Would you say he has a little OCD? It was great and a very fun time. Enjoying this time when they actually want to watch movies with us!

Oh, by the way...have any of you heard about that little thing called the SWINE flu? It's keeping me very busy and not with sick people -- there is NO outbreak right now.....

And here is a picture of the boys watching Andy Griffith, one of their favorite shows!

And so it begins...

Again... 200 something new transfers and freshman have arrived on our campus... the semester will begin next Tuesday.

I was asked today if I was still going to post on my blog. Apparently my one loyal reader has missed my post! =)

I will leave you with what Alex said to me the other day. "I have 2 brains." I asked if I could use one of them?" He said, "sure Mommy!" I sure needed the extra one this week.

And because I have been told every post is better with a picture, I leave you with these... one of John playing baseball and one of Alex weed eating the carpet for me.




I'll try to do better posting at least weekly.
