Long time no blog

Yes, I've been a terrible blogger these last few weeks. I apologize to all my faithful readers. I'll try to sum it all up in this one post for you. It's the end of the school year and that brings on a frenzy of activities. Jaz has 9 more days of school and then she's officially a 4th grader! Gosh I feel old!!! When did she get so big?? Who gave her permission to grow up?!?!? She is super excited. We're still waiting the results of her Math TAKS test but I'm confident that she passed with flying colors. I'm trying to keep the girls busy this summer but now I'm wondering if I've got them TOO busy. LOL Jaz is signed up for the enrichment camp, and then she goes onto a cheer camp, then 2 weeks in swimming lessons. I tried to get her signed up for a pottery class that she wanted but I just wasn't quick enough because it's full already. Jacey is signed up for 2 weeks worth of swimming lessons too. I was going to sign her up for gymnastics too but all the classes are full. Plus, she can go jump on the trampoline and have the same amount of fun. :) Lets see what else do we have planned for this summer? Another weekend trip to Dallas, a weeklong conference for daddy, 4th of July, a possible trip to Nebraska, and hopefully a few camping trips thrown in there somewhere too. Speaking of weekend trips to Dallas, we just got back from one. My mom is training for a new job and they sent her to the Dallas area to train for 6 weeks!!!! We had lots of fun. We ate lots, did lots of shopping and I can't wait to go back. Miss you mom!!! The girls had a great time. I'm sure that there were a few people cursing us though with all the crying Ms. P was doing. She did NOT want to go to sleep! I'm really glad that the girls got to spend some more time with gran. They ususally only get to see her once a year so this was a great treat for them. They've been constantly asking me when are we going back MOM!!!! Soon, girls, very soon. :) I've got pictures to upload, but I just haven't had any time to get it done. So be looking for some new pics very soon.

Note to self.....

When making coffee, make sure to put coffee in the coffee pot otherwise you will end up with plain hot water in you coffee cup. That makes for a sad, sad cup of coffee.

Newest obsession

This shout out goes to Ms. Cindy Lou Who who gave Jazmin a pink webkinz pony for being on the honor roll and getting her name in the paper. Jaz wants to give you a big, big THANK YOU!!!! You're so sweet to do that for her. She made up a card for you that I'll have to give to Jodi when we see her on friday. Jazmin is totally lovin the webkinz craze! She spent 4 hours!! (yes 4 hours!) on the computer while I was at work the other night playin and decorating her room, answering trivia questions, doing math problems.......she was having sooo much fun!! She's now counting her pennies to see when she can buy another one. :)

Time to brag .....

....on Jazmin. :) She got a paper sent home today that is inviting her to an enrichment camp this summer. It's inviting high achievers and students with an inquisitive mind who show leadership and have an appreciation of learning. I asked if anyone else in her class was going and she said only 3 other kids got the invitation! So only the top 4 kids in the class get to go. WTG JAZ!!!! May have to sign her up for the G & T program after all. :)

THAT SMELL!!!!!

The yuckies are still making their rounds over here. Now Jaz has it. Poor thing was up all night making friends with the porcelain. She stayed home from school today and hopefully she'll get over it real soon. She's got a field trip planned for wednesday and she'll be real upset if she can't go. Phoenix is still sick. At least it's not being thrown up anymore.......just the other more toxic end. Daddy thinks he's getting sick too. He's got a queazy stomach. And have I mentioned the smell? Ya, all you moms out there know exactly what smell I'm talking about. The lovely aroma of throw up mixed with the hershey squirts all rolled into one. YUMMY! I don't think I'll ever be able to get rid of it! I think I'm on load 5 of washing clothes this morning. Sigh.....at least I'm not sick.......yet!
