2 Productive Days!

I am super excited becuase have had a good and productive 2 days!

Yesterday I was able to get a lot of computer work done for my classroom and the upcoming school year (becuase...yes I do have to go back to reality on July 29th)! But, I have a brand new "teacher binder" that I designed to fit my theme and my needs. It was completely free (other than the paper, printer ink, and recycled binder that I have pruchased at some point in my life). AND although I did take ideas from some pins & blogs I am super excited to call it mine! I also got my RTI binder done with some things borrowed from a pin that offered me free things!! I got a chance to sort out my Word Study game plan, AR game plan and rewards system, and make my pre-planning to do list!! I know some of you non-teacher folks are going blah, blah, blah (much like Mr. WHO was yesterday after noon as I shared my accomplishments) but my teacher folks will understand and give me a WOOHOO! I love all of you though (teacher or not).

Then today I got my quiet time in, 1 bathroom cleaned, 1 load of laundry done, breakfast cooked, dishes washed, boys bathed, lunch fed, supper started and in the crock pot, and some adjustments to some of my school things all before 1:20!! (Small things make me happy) It all had to be done by 1:20 because then I got to spend some good time with two sweet friends while our kids played at the park and we got to go over some upcoming ladies events for church (yay!). After my mini-date with my friends my sweet husband took me to pick out my next slide for my Pandora bracelet as my anniversary present! WooHoo!!So now I have a pretty blue slide for Baby Who's birthstone!

Now I have to take some time to pick on my biggest Who! We had a church softball game tonight and I convinced Mr. Who to let me play outfield again. I got burned on my first flyball, caught my next one, THEN....HE called me off of my last one! That's right...I was on it and he just shows up, calls the ball and takes right from me!! So much for a Happy Anniversary! ! LoL I guess I will have to let this one slide...but he better not make this a habit!  I love you Wesley Horton Who...Happy Anniversary!

Fun Filled Weekend!! (9th anniversary)

Well we just got back from a GREAT weekend!! Mr. Who and I spent the weekend in Atlanta for our 9th anniversary! We have started a new thing where we alternate years surprising each other with a getaway and it was my turn!

So we went to a Braves game on Friday (they lost) but we had a good time! Had to make a pit-stop in Macon at Academy Sports to get some new Braves attire and well we just LOVE Academy so we left with a little more than Braves attire! He did figure out that we were going to see the Braves before we left but didn't know the next part.

Then Saturday we went to Six Flags....that's right a day of coasters and fun and we didn't have to do any kid-swaps!! It was a little crowded and we waited in some long lines but it was worth it. Nothing like bonding with each other going 60 + mph and doing loops on roller coasters!! My favorite ride was The Goliath. Mr. Who was torn between The Goliath and Superman (i think that's what he said).

Then we went to visit some very special people that we haven't spent time with in a long while! Allison, Ron, Reagan, and Jake. It was the coolest thing to walk in and see Reagan's eyes light up when he saw Wesley...PRICELESS! ! They are all very special to us but Reagan has a special place in Wesley's heart!

It was a great weekend of time spent laughing and enjoying each other (man does he like to sing in the car)!! LoL
Doing things we don't normally get to do with just the 2 of us and just enjoying our time together. I look forward to many more years with this very special man! I thank my Lord for giving me such a great husband and giving us the chance to do things like this together. I also need to thank the grandparents for keeping the sweet Whos while we were gone!

A Good Week!

Wow! What a good end of the week! Wesley had July 4th off and we had family over for a great cookout and fun for the afternoon and evening. The kids played, the grown-ups talked and played, we all ate & ate & ate, and then had a little fireworks show (to the sound of the big fireworks going on down the river)! My family is loud and crazy but I ABSOLUTELY love spending time with my family! We were missing a few people but it was still a good day and night!

Yesterday was not as a good but, not bad. Mr. Who did have to go to work and we missed him not being with us. We did have a good picnic outside with Gi-gi and Easton enjoyed his chicken! I got some things marked off my to-do-list for school (my dry-erase frames for my standards)! Still so much to do though.

Today Mr. Who worked really hard on the rest of the demolition of the deck and is ready to start the construction work! Woohoo! Can't wait to see how it turns out. Then this evening I got to spend some great time with my girlfriend Michelle!! Yes we were the 2 ladies at Logans who stayed from 5:30-10!! Although they probably hated us (most of you that have been in the restaurant business are probably cringing) our waitress was very patient and kind! It was a GREAT time and we got to do some much needed catching-up with each other! Now for a day with our with our brothers and sisters at PBC tomorrow! !

What Is a Mommy To Do?

It was a rainy day today!! And although I wish I could say my fun & creative Mommy juices were really flowing today...they weren't! Instead my Oh my goodness this messy "well-lived-in-house" is driving me crazy juices were flowing! 

So this is how our morning went. While I was trying to clean I had a very helpful 9 year old Who that was helping me clean while a wired/wanting to go outside 3 year old Who was getting stir crazy & a walk around with my arms in the air crying 1 year old Who  was following me around wanting his Mommy! So I cleaned & folded clothes then finally got Who Easton down for his morning nap. Then Who Tanner & I went into his TrAiN wReCk of a room and played a game to get it cleaned and luckily it worked! Although next time I think I might really try some SuperHero socks & cape or maybe a Ninja Turtle suit to help us get some motivation to tackle his mess! We shall see...

Well after lunch and a failed attempt to watch a movie I decided we needed to get out of the house (I needed to get out of the house). What better place for me to go to relieve some stress & get some items to finally start on my to do list for my classroom but....Hobby Lobby. Perfect! ! This would give us at least 45 minutes to nap (no, not me obviously). And YES, all of my little Whos took a nap on the way & woke up refreshed and ready to go to Mommy's favorite place! I know, maybe I should've taken them to the library or a fun indoor place for kids...but Hobby Lobby just sounded much more satisfying today. Besides we had driven by Hobby Lobby yesterday after bowling and it was calling my name...loudly!!

So now I am hoping to use some of the upcoming naptimes to check things off of my classroom to do list (one of those unattained "summmer resolutions"). Wish me luck!!
