Walking with Dinosaurs







This week has sucked. Major flooding has knocked school out all week. So by day 2 with both kids at home & stuck inside they were getting cabin fever. So I can't tell you how happy I was when I won 4 tickets to the Walking with Dinosaurs for Wednesday night. Jackson was very excited to go. Jason said he would stay home with Nathan & I asked Amanda & Mason to go. It was such an awesome show. Mason & Jackson were such good boys, I could not have asked for better kids. They loved the show. On the way out we bought them an over priced T-Rex. But they deserved it.

Go New Georgia Bulldogs!!!






Baseball has started back up!! YEAH!!! This is season we moved up to T-Ball. No longer tiny tots, we now have refs and they keep score. This should be fun. Jason is the assistant coach this season & Jackson is pumped about this. He keeps wanting to hug his Daddy & tell him that he loves him but Jason won't let him. He tells him "fist pump on the field, no loving". He's gonna regret that one day. We are the black bulldogs. At the 1st game all the kids were ready to play however we were not. We didn't win or even come close but I don't think the kids knew that. They didn't really understand why it was so different this season from last. They will get it. Jackson told me he had fun & that really is all that matters.
Oh yeah, he decided he wanted to play catched just like his Dad did.

Grandparents Day







On September 11th we had Grnadparents Day at school. Jackson invited all his Grandparents to come to school to have breakfast with him and see what he does all day. He was pretty excited and couldn't wait to get to school. It was a little crazy & crowded but we managed to get in. I went only for photos & tried to stay back. He had muffins & fruit for breakfast then he gave each Grandparent a card that he made with a poem in it. He was very proud of it. After that he introduced his Grandparents to the class. He was supposed to tell the class what he likes doing with each one. I remember with Grammy he said that they liked doing, what they like doing. He said he liked going to Pop's house & watching tv. Now we all know that he does much more than that. At Pa & Grammie's he swims, rides the boat, fishes & plays in the dirt. At Pop's & Nanny's they swim in the pool, play trains, works in the flower garden & as he tells me he takes care of Great-Grandma. Of course he didn't remember any of this. Oh well, it was nice anyway.
