Oh, what a beautiful morning...

Did you just sing that in your head?

I only know that one line, oh what a beautiful morning! oh what a beautiful day! I don't even know what the song is from.

I don't have much culture do I? I should know that bit of trivia. I homeschool my children. These tidbits of information should flow freely from my mind. But, alas, they don't! And apparently I'm not too ashamed to admit that to the ten of you that are reading this!

But anyway.

October is here and it is beautiful! The morning air is brisk. (Or so I'm told, I try not to get up at the time when the air is brisk.) The smell of defoliant is in the air, and believe it or not the leaves are beginning to change colors. I love it!

This morning Stephen and I went yard-saleing(that is not a word that spell check recognizes). I'm not sure why Stephen thinks he needs extra points with me that made him go with me, but it will be worth it I know. We bought some shirts for the boys and believe it or not a cub scout uniform complete with neckerchief! I cannot tell you of my excitement! Those babys cost $30.00 and we have to buy 2 this year. So, the $3 that I paid was well spent!
And then we bought doughnuts at the bakery. I love the bakery, you know that right? I don't care that one of my friends doesn't. I do, and thats all that really matters! HA!HA!

Have I told you that I am cubmaster of the cub scout troop here in my town? Have I also told you that I have a problem noticing when I may have too many things on my plate and should say no? Well, consider yourself told!

I'm making an October resolution. I'm sure you will be happy to know it. Here it is: I'm going to blog more!

So, lets see if this resolution sticks!

Have a great day ya'll. Go ASU!! Go HOGS GO!!!

A Blind Date & Leaving Comments

8 years ago today I met this sweet man in the picture above. We met on a blind date in the Bluff City (aka- Memfrica). He and I were simply going out to shut up his stepmother and my sister, who had decided that we were meant to be together from one simple fridge photo and a dog named Abby. Little did we know they would be able to pat themselves on the back for the rest of their lives . I am so glad we both agreed to go out for that one date on New Years Eve 2001 because I have had him in my life everyday since that crazy night at my cousin Hollye's back door when he arrived to pick me up to find a baby on my hip that he thought was mine. I remember those beautiful blue eyes and how they about popped out of his head as he stood at the door wondering why no one had mentioned my child. That baby on my hip was Claire. She was 1 then and had just gone number 2 in her diaper right before he rang the bell. She had Styrofoam all over her and me from playing in Christmas boxes. Needless t

All Aboard The Birthday Polar Express

  Can you believe Henry Patton will be 4 years old tomorrow?! Neither can we. We celebrated his birthday last weekend with his first all boy party, polar express style. I had so much fun preparing for it, as you can probably tell! My mother who is never at a loss for words said it looked like Polar Express threw up in my house. She was SO right and we loved it! We had a breakfast pajama party with 7 three and four year old boys. It was such a fun time.   I had his pajamas monogrammed with a train and his name. He loved them and I liked how they sort of looked like the ones on the movie. Henry loved all the bells I had everywhere. There is no doubt we believe at this house. We had the jingle loud and proud!   I had his invitation made from a shop on Etsy and I was very pleased with them. One of his little friends came to the door ready for me to punch his ticket. It was so cute. I ran to get a hole punch and punched it for him. Every good party has to have go
