schools almost out!!!

I just cannot believe that school is almost over. The boys official last day of school is Thursday. Friday is a play day and picnic day. I think they are excited, but they like school, so it isn't such a big deal. They are both excited for T-ball and baseball. Jack is going to play t-ball again this year. His team is the "Twins". He is so pumped. Some of his friends are on his team, so that makes it fun. Will is going to be playing pee wee baseball. Last year was his first year of pitch ball. He did very well and loved it. He said that they already picked out the colors for their shirts and numbers. Last year he played first base and catcher. This year he says he is going to work on his pitching. He LOVES baseball! The boys will both be taking swimming lessons. They are all like little fish.
Charlie and Jack will be at daycare Wed, Thurs and Fri. I hope we have a fun summer. We don't have any major trips planned. We will be traveling to a few sprint car races. Paul and the boys are true motor heads. We plan to go to Bemidji and spend some time at the cabin. We would also like to try and get up to Lake Metagoshe. It slways seems like we have so much time when school gets out. then all of a sudden, it is time for school to start. Summer always goes by way to fast.
We have been busy cleaning up our yard. There is so much I want to do, but it all takes money. I guess I will do one thing at a time. We cleaned out our shed. Paul cleaned out the little room off the garage and also cleaned the garage. I have some spring cleaning to do inside the house. I want to clean out our pantry and some closets...yuck! I just love it when it is all done and clean. They boys have been helping too, right now, they are both cleaning their room. I want to do some painting and get more things for our yard. I don't even have any flowers outside yet. Last night it was close to freezing, so I will wait a little while. I guess it is time for me to get off the computer and get busy. The pantry is calling my name. Thanks for checking on us.

Happy Mother's Day!!!!!!

I want to wish my mother, my mother-in-law, my grandma, my sister, my sisters-in-law and all my friends a very happy mother's day. What an awesome day.

I woke up yesterday with an aweful head cold and a sore throat. By last night I was so miserable, my cheeks hurt, my teeth hurt and my head hurt. Today, I have been felling pretty yucky. I slept in the morning for a couple hours then went to work for a couple of hours. We spent most of the afternoon in the back yard with the boys. It was a beautiful day and very relaxing. We went and got burgers and ate supper at the park. It was a lot of fun. Paul and the boys played baseball and Charlie and I played at the park. Other then not feeling well, it was a very nice day. I couldn't ask for a better day then to spend time with Paul and the boys. I got a lot of nice gifts from Paul and the boys and a lot of cards in the mail.

Will, Jack and Charlie each made me a card at school or daycare, they are so sweet. I save all the homemade things from the boys. I love the notes they write to me. On Thursday, I went to school with Jack for muffins for mom. That is always a fun morning. Jack wrote stories about us and made me several things. Thanks Jack for the awesome cards and stories.

Will made me a nice card, I can pick a flower off each day. Each flower has something written that he will do for me. So far, he has to do dishes. He is so sweet. I am so lucky to have such sweet and cute little boys. I truly thank God every day for all my blessings.

I hope everyone had a good day with their kids and families. Happy Mothers Day to all.
