Sunday Morning

Hey All~
I know haven't even invited you yet, so even though this is the 2nd entry, it is the first for you. Anyway, got up this morning and talked with the T-Man. He was working some crazy hours the next couple days. BUT, he told me I needed to get my transmisssion fluid changed.

Well, I decided to take care of that after church. Scooter and I got to church. First, don't you love it when kids say things that are so sweet? Well, Scooter looked at the church going in and pointed to the cross on the building and said "That is God. And we tell him thank you." It made me smile.

Anyway, after church we went to our local Lube place and asked them to fill up the transmission fluid. They were VERY nice to me and they continued to be very nice to me. One of the guys even winked at me. Thinking inside that they were just being super sweet, I was glad I took it to them. Then when driving off, I felt a breeze. I looked down and my shirt was unbuttoned in a GREAT location. FABULOUS, I say! I guess gave them something to talk about the rest of the day! Anyway, just one of those days when you have to laugh, because they also told me that they thought I might need a new transmission.

Here is what I have learned in my life. God will provide a way, even if it is not the way we planned.

Hope your weekend is great!

First Steps

Okay, my friend Sarah has me hooked on this blog thing, SO, I thought we would start one for our family. I am learning, so please be patient. I called Sarah tonight and she helped with the music piece. I included some of our favorite songs. It might seem random, but each song has some meaning to us. I will continue to add more. Right now I think there are about 24 songs. Feel free to look through and listen to what you'd like. If you have any tips, feel free to share them with me.

T-Man is doing fine. He says it is 100+ degrees everyday. He is trying to run or some exercise. I just sent another two boxes of stuff for him. He loves John Wayne and westerns, so I sent over a couple more of those. He also loves Strwberry Frosted Mini Wheats. Just a few favs from home. The guys that he is with love the flavored Oreos that we send over. One of the guys lives close to us. I hope one day to meet him. BUT, because not a lot of exercising is going on, I have been asked to send healthier snacks and treats. This time I sent canned and dried fruit. I am betting he will probably ask for other types of snacks again in the future. I am attaching the picture of the camels that he had the pleasure of seeing. Maybe he can bring one home. HA! I am sure little Scooter would love that.

Shortey had a field trip the other day. It was FAB!!! We went to a state park in the middle of an ongoing rain storm. It was a good time, though, and later he told me he was glad I went. I am sure it was especially funny for him and his classmates when they scared me with Mr. S's pet corn snakes. Yes, I jumped and moved quickly away from the snakes. This is why I do not teach anything requiring live animals in my classroom.

The A-Man is prepping for his summer school classes and working as a videographer for the football team. I am really pumped for him. He is also continuing his golf expeditions.

Speaking of Scooter, we have run errands today. Lots of fun. We are getting ready to head out again. I will keep updating this blog when I can. Stay safe and dry this weekend. Hope it is wonderful.
