Day 80

Monday, March 21, 2011

Today's POTD is the before photo on our new Master Bath remodel project.  Ron has this week off as well as the boys for Spring Break.  He decided to start the bathroom remodel since the mold smell was getting too much for all of us.  We have no clue what we want done, but we know we want a change.  Hopefully I will be able to show the after someday soon!

Day 79

Today's POTD is a couple of bags of stuff from the boy's room that they decided to give away.  I made them clean up their room and told them that they needed to pick a few things to give to kids that don't have as much or any toys.  I was very proud of them both, after a little bit they were both putting toys and movies in the bags to pass on.

Today we went to Lakewood to the Special Olympics State Games for basketball.  Both the games were so close it was crazy!  Zach made a three pointer in the first game!  We ended up taking second place, but it was so close, and all the kids played well!  What fun!

Day 77

Friday, March 18, 2011

So today's POTD, is of the two books I have been reading.  I am participating in a Lenten reading with some online friends, going through the New Testament, and I am also reading my latest "smut novel" "Lover Awakened" by JR Ward.  I had them on the entertainment stand and Ron says, "is that book so bad you need to keep it with the Bible?"  I said close maybe, but no, I just am trying to make sure I take the time to read both each day.

Day 76

Happy St. Patty's Day!  This morning while Riley was still sleeping, my Mom and I made about 30 of these leprechaun hats.  I gave them to Riley's teacher to hand out to the kids in his class.  I didn't let Riley know about it, and I guess the teacher put them out while the kids were at music.  When they came in they were all excited, and were like "hey where did these come from?" The teacher told them that she and Miss Lundy were just sitting there grading papers and they heard a small scratching noise and when they looked up they didn't see anything and then they heard it again and looked up and there were all these little hats on the desks.  I guess Riley raised his hand and said he bet it was a leprechaun and then another boy said "yeah, because they are so small you can't see them" and then another girl says "I bet it's because I found the treasure this morning".  The teacher said it was the best thing ever!

Today's POTD is of Riley just being silly!  I think he looks a little like Charlie Chapman. 



Day 74

Tuesday, March 15, 2011

Today is TCU (Team Captain University) for our Relay.  I am helping the committee put the training on again this year.  Our theme this year is "Seasons of Hope", and we thought it would be neat to have center pieces on the tables to go along with this theme.  I was assigned fall for my table, and was going to do some cricut cuts and just stick them in a basket, but my sister said she would make an arrangement for me, so I just cut out the Hopes and stuck them in her arrangement.  I am thankful for her arrangement, because as always, I was running behind schedule and I didn't have time to do my original plan, not to mention that it wouldn't have looked that great.

Day 73

Monday, March 14, 2011

Today I took Zach to the ear doctor for a check up on his tubes, and the doctor decided that it was time to take his t-tubes out.  I said okay, and we went across the hall into the procedure room, Zach laid on the exam table and the doctor pulled out the tubes.  Let's hope that they heal up nicely, and that he has out grown all the ear infections!
