Testing…

Can I just tell you that I hate, hate, hate testing.  I have been stressing about this dumb Radiology exam that i have to take for work.   My Dr. gave me a timeline…the end of Aug….Grrrr!!!

This is about how my table looked the other night…  I for sure needed some chocolate…so this is what came to mind.  My test is this weekend and when do I ever have time to study?????????????

WISH ME LUCK!

Grandma Bluemel turns “80”

Dustin’s Grandma Bluemel turned 80 a few weeks ago. What a neat lady she is and wow she has such a wonderful posterity!   We got to attend her 80th birthday party and it was so fun to get to know her a little better and reminisce about her and her childhood. Who she went to school with, what her favorite color is, what her favorite movie is, how many kids her and grandpa had, grandkids and great grandkids she has, what size of shoe she wears, what size her wedding band is, and what was her favorite place her and grandpa have traveled.  We have missed them dearly over the past few years ever science we moved to sunny AZ. We love coming home for the holidays and always getting to see her and grandpa! 

We all have loved being a part of her life in every small way. She always has a way of making you feel like she had been waiting to talk to you  and has a way to make us feel so loved. No matter how many miles stand in between us we still have a strong love  for her and grandpa.  When we talk it’s like we never left and and she is so good to remember every grandchild and great grandchild's birthday!

HAPPY Belated BIRTHDAY WISH TO YOU GRANDMA!!

My girls thought that a grandma who wore a tiara can still    be a princess for a day!

First Day of School…

My First Grader

The First Day

I gave you a little wink and smile
As you entered my room today.
For I know how hard it is to leave
And know your child must stay.
You've been with her for five years now
And have been a loving guide,
But now, alas, the time has come
To leave her at my side.
Just know that as you drive away
And tears down your cheeks may flow
I'll love her as I would my own
And help her learn and grow.
For as a parent, I too know
How quickly the years do pass 
To take my child to class.
So please put your mind at ease
And cry those tears no more
For I will love her and take her in
When you leave her at my door.

(My kindergartener)

As I write this post I can’t help but hold back the tears…to think that my sweet Chloe has started kindergarten.  She was excited to meet her teacher before school started, she enjoyed getting all the school supplies and each trip to do so would only bring her that much closer to starting her long journey of school.

Chloe I want you to know that it hasn’t been easy on me to let you go and I did countless times beg you to stay home, but you were ready and so we both decided to let you go. I know you are a strong spirit and  I know you know write from wrong…be a leader and stand up for what you believe in!! know that your daddy and I love you so much!  You are my super star…

Love,

Mom

p.s. You have your big brother there with you so you have nothing to worry about! : O

Ewwwww….it’s not gum is it????

These were my worlds when little Chloe came to me and told me that she has gum in her hair. I was a little sad at first…I am the parent who is ALWAYS saying no to gum. I think that the little kids don’t need gum!! Do they really have bad breath? Yeah right and I made my point that day that the kids aren’t aloud to have bubble gum until they turn at least 10 years old!! Do you think that I’m crazy?

Chloe was sad to think that we had to cut it out!! She has been growing her hair out like Reponzel’s for quiet some time now. She was in tears knowing that tomorrow was here first day of school and wanting to wear it down and long, but now dad had to trim it up!

How did this happen? On our drive home of course the kids asked for gum…I always hesitate but seem to find myself giving in. Mason an hour of chewing me decided to put in down in the cup holder of the back seat…she laid her head down to take a nap and woke up with it stuck in her hair.

Dustin tried “oops” be gone stuff and it didn’t hardly touch it so we had to do the worse and cut it out!! After wards it did look great and she said see mom it really wasn’t all that much hair, i thought it was going to be up to my ears.
