The Tree

Yes, last night Jerry was in the tree again. I hope you are praying for us. I get really nervous.

Update on the cars, no parts yet!!!

The Next American Idols!

We have had Pink eye at our house!! I know your jealous I'm sure you can have it next. So Olivia has been a bit bored with the kids in school now and her home with those beautiful pink eyes. So her and I played Singstar the other day. She loves to sing, she walks around all the time singing. So later that night her and Gracie got singing. This is the sight we got of those two belting out the tunes. She takes her singing very serious! All of you have heard her know. She is very serious. I'll have to record her and post it. She does a great Ariel! Gracie has to try and keep up with Olivia. She does a darn good job! They really are pretty good singers. I'm quit surprised.

Our New Lawn Ornament!

Last Thursday while pulling out of the drive I noticed my van acting odd. Mind you it has been doing some odd things over the summer but this was worse. The brakes where sticking as I backed out. So that night I had Jerry take it for a drive. We immediately took it to Clair's to hoist it up. Well we found nothing the first round but after running it on the jack and taking the tire off again we found that be are missing a bolt that holds the brakes to the car or to the wheel something with the caliber. (I'm a girl I don't get all this stuff). Well we pulled it on the front lawn so we don't have to back it up.This is what I get to look at til the part comes which was suppose to be today. But hasn't come yet. And the part for the Jeep hasn't arrived yet either. It has lots of problems. We borrowed my parents Yukon so we have one vehicle that has no problems. Jerry wanted to let the grass grow around it and get some cinder blocks. Won't the neighbors love us. I wouldn't let him. I asked him to drive it around the block while I mowed. YeahWe think the van may get traded in SOOOOn!!!

Jerry and The Tree

Well today I have been busy painting our swing set swings. They had to be sand and scrapped. It took most of the afternoon and early evening. After supper I look out the window and this was the sight I saw! This tree is one of the two dead trees we have in our yard. We chopped the other one down a week ago and Jerry thinks he can cut this one down. I hope his life insurance is up to date! Look close I apologize it is a little blurry I am a little shaky after all the painting.

Look close that is Jerry in the tree!!!! I'll let you know when the tree comes down. And by who. I wanted to hire someone to take care of it. Our awesome new neighbors volunteered to help us. That is what he use to do for a living. Will have to see what happens. Wish us luck on the tree!!!! Will need it.

Summer is officially over!!!

Well I think we are ready, we have been shopping for clothes, shoes, supplies and we have been to the beauty shop for a cut and a weave and the nail place for an eye brow waxing. My sympathies to all those with girls. Me include my pocket book shows it!

Well first out the door this morning was Megan. She has to be to school by 7:15 a.m. yeah for me huh! It is a tradition in our house to take a picture here at the top of the stairs. I guess I figure I can tell how tall they where. Another place was the front step and the bench but we lost the tree it died and I ran out of time for the front step.

Next was Nicole she has to be at school by 7:30. After I dropped Megan off I came home helped Nicole with her hair and listened to the I have a stomach ache blues. She even threw up this morning. First day jitters and that big new school she was going to doesn't help! I was nervous for her. She is at the Junior High now. (I guess that is what they call it, It has 8th and 9th grade). Sadie and Nicole this is another tradition always in front of the flowers. And last was Gracie. I had to wake her up I gave her til 8:15 since she went to bed late. I was nervous you never know what you are going to get when you wake her up. So today's was my leg hurts, I didn't sleep much I was up during the night. I thanked her for not waking me up! So after a waffle we got ready and off we went. This is Gracie at her new desk she was a bit nervous too. And she is the only one I got Breakfast in this morning. So here I sit trying to update my blog and listen to Olivia ask all sorts questions among which (I need a snack, I thought you would play with me, who can I play with, can I call grandma, on and on)

I hope all of there day is going good!!!
