Some have given all, some have given parts of themselves they can never get back. I am so proud to come from a family with an awesome grandfather and brother who served. I also have a brother in law that was a marine. We ahve many friends that have spent time voerseas. So, today I remember those who did not make it home and I remember what and who makes us free! Here are a few of my vets!<br />

It was pretty great! We went on a day that wasn't too busy. We also met another Bryce in the corn crib. They had a huge tractor that they had turned into a slide. Perfect for our boy! He is a crazy guy who loves the outside!<br />

Bryce was really into the game and cheering. The team was doing pretty good. We didn't stay for the whole game because a little guy was ready to head and Steve looked pretty tired himself. It was awesome though! They only played in the pregame. I think tonight made him undecided about football. I told him to just wait and see. He really likes football and the together and respect is greater in football!<br />

I looked outside and he was building a firepit. Bryce and I were busy making ninja turtles out of playdo. I love playdo until the colors get mixed. They always do. There no stopping it. Our turtles were pretty darn cute though!<br />

By the time we finished that it was time to go outside and check our the fire. Steven and dad like to play with fire so we had a great one roaring. You know how boys are! We cooked hotdogs and took pictures looking like a crazy person! It was fun though and we now have a tent that has been up for a week. Steven is planning to sleep there this weekend but it has got to get down before next week.<br />

It was so much fun. I needed some girl time and adult time with some great chics that are down to earth and normal. Does that make sense? These are people I click with. Anyway, we had a great time and since we were in Huntsville we had to have Rosie's. It is mandatory for me. It is the best! So, I refuse to give away the dress so here are the girls looking fabulouso! <br />

It is right around the corner so we saw the firetrucks and such, so we stopped to join the fun. We had his apron in the car because we knew they were having a build clinic for kids. He had to put it on asap. We went in to get some things for Blake's work first but they had some pumpkins up front and I had to have a mini photo session with my cute pumpkin. <br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;">Is there something you don't do but you should? Anything that you just hate to do? I can't stand to do dishes at night. It just irks me to have to cook and then clean up the mess afterward. Now, I am not saying that I am just gross and leave it all out. I do clean the counters and wipe up the mess and try to consolidate. I just loathe doing the dishes at night. I do leave them out until the next morning. I am more of a morning person once I am awake. So, there you have it and when people come to my house in the morning please realize that I do clean my kitchen just not right away.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <br />

Steven entered a contest at the Morgan County Fair for 4H. He was representing his school and himself. And surprisingly he won third place. He kinda threw all of his stuff together last minute, due to us not realizing it was coming up. He likes to build and he used all the different lowe's building projects from the year for a display of workmanship. Way to go Steve-o!<br />

I have been relying on my iPhone to take pictures and boy does it stink in the quality department. I am always looking for things to do with Bryce and we go to the library quite often. One week they had a teddy bear sleepover. We all came in our jammies and brought an animal to leave for a slumber party. We had a night time snack and made some crafts and of course read some books. <br />

When we came back the next day we found pictures of what the animals did at night. They played in the elevator, had story time, and was caught sliding down the stair rail. Silly animals. It was a treat for Bryce. And yes, that is gum in his mouth. His does really well with it other than he wants it all the time. <br />

A couple of days later we found out that the ships of Christopher Columbus would be docking in Decatur for some great <a href="http://www.bigbobgibson.com/main.htm">BBQ</a>. It is something that we are known for here and it lures people all the time to our city. Of course the Nina and Pinta look like pirate ships to the Bman so off we headed down to the dock. We would of loved to look around but they had the dock blocked off. Bryce was happy enough to just look at them and see how big they were. They look really big but I cannot imagine what riding them in 1492 with at least two dozen people would have been like, other than stinky and gross. <br />

Since I didn't have the receipts I took them back for store credit. I was able to load up on dollar deals on mums and then I found two little gems for the house. Blake loves indoor plants, me not so much. But when I saw these two plants for $1 and $3 I just couldn't resist. Aren't they cute and low maintenance too!<br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;"> We seem to keep getting busier and busier as the years move on. I have no idea how I ever worked and kept the house up. Well, I guess I really didn't keep it up like it should have been. It is some hard work and my boy is a wild one. He stays engaged constantly. I have so many ideas but no time to do them. Someday I hope to figure out time and having a toddler. Next year he needs to be in school at least four days. So hopefully then. Who knows?! I did start my flag spinning class. I currently have five girls signed up for that and hopefully we will just keep growing! I hope to incorporate all the high schools into my program to make their transition to high school band seamless. I do have two cakes that I am making in the next 3 weeks, please pray for me! They do not look hard but they will be my tell tale of if this is something that I can do or not. Ok, and I still have to try to put together a coupon class around football season!

We were blessed to be given a years tuition to our church's preschool this year. It is only two days a week for 4 hours but such a great blessing. Bryce was not too excited but when I walked him in today he was ready for me to leave! They were even going skating today and he didn't want me to go with them. He's a heartbreaker but I love him. Mr. Independent! <br />
<br />
On another note, I bought 3 boxes of hair color, some crest toothpaste, and a pack of bubblegum today and spent $.33! I was ecstatic! You have to love it when you score some deals!<br />
<br />
Now onto a more serene moment....Today Thad Montgomery would have turned 30. He passed in January fighting for our freedom. Take a minute to remember his family today. While he is in a better place, it is still hard for those left here on Earth. Such a great soul! He touched so many in his 29 years! Happy Birthday Old Friend, keep on watching us! <br />

He has never been to a game and I have only been to two. Well, this was the game for Blake to get started on! It was amazing! We were in the nosebleed but even there you can see very well. We were underneath an awning also and it really helped because we did get a touch of rain during the game. I have to give some kudos to Anna and David, without them we may have never known how to park! Plus, David had scoped out a prime piece of land for us. We were 2 blocks from the quad so we were good. It was crazy this weekend and we could barely walk around to see anything. Then it started to rain, and I mean pour. We headed back to the car for just a little while for some rest and dryness before the game started! I had to show Blake the Walk of Champions and some of the neat stuff at the entrance of the stadium. <br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We had such a great time and of course the Tide pulled it through. I was truly surprised at the amount of Penn State fans. I did witness one of the main reasons I love the south. As we walked towards the stadium we were behind a group of about 10 Penn State fans. They were younger than us and looked like they were there to have fun. This man who had to be in his 50's made sure to go over to them and welcome them to Tuscaloosa. It was great. I know people sometimes think we are a little too involved in our teams here in the south but this just made my day. I do believe Coach Saban even commented after the game that the Bama fans welcomed Paterno and all his fans graciously! <br />

Bryce was Mr. Incredible all morning. I talked him into an early nap around 1130 because we had a busy evening ahead of us. I slept too and it was great. I had a flu shot yesterday and I had been dragging ever since. I taught my first Flag class tonight. It was so much fun and I have 3 girls who are so excited about flag. I know your thinking, wow true band geek. Oh yeah, I was and I loved band. It was fun and something that I was good at. I was just as excited tonight as I was in 9th grade. <br />

We are constantly looking for things for the boys to do that keeps them busy and we finally believe that Bryce is old enough for hiking. He was super cute and loved it. Until he got tired then it was I wanna go home. The trails were not too hard and everyone worked up a sweat. Poor Steven though, he is used to hiking like 10 miles and with a toddler, we made it like a mile! <br />

They are wrapping up a tree house exhibit, which involves many professionally built tree houses. When were blessed even more to find out that the Scarecrow Trail had begun also! The tree houses were amazing and for Bryce this is the life. He is not one for strollers and being still and he can run in places like this! We even saw some butterflies.<br />

I have heard that this Dave Ramsey class is fantastic. I have never been involved in adult Sunday School before. Our church loses the most people in their 20's but we are hoping to change that around soon. SO, I know that Blake and I have a ton of work to do in our finance department and I can't wait to see what Dave will bring to our table!<br />

We left Thursday and made the quick 6 1/2 hour drive. It is an easy drive straight up 65 and change to another interstate in Louisville. Not hard at all. I drove up for 4 1/2 hours and Blake finished the rest up. Bryce didn't sleep the whole way up. Not at all! We were flabbergasted, to say the least. And that boy's mouth runs the entire way. He is hilarious. Steven is at the age where he puts on headphones and passes out. Can't say I blame him. That's what I would do but I keep Blake company. We were able to go to the Cincinnati Zoo on Friday and it is spectacular. <br />
<br />
The boys were up early ready to go. They had no problem making themselves at home. Bryce believes that he should live there too.<br />

He was a riot on the way over. There are some smokestacks that is along this highway leading to Cincinnati and I remember it from as long as I can remember and now he will too!<br />

I am praying for a new year, a refreshed Steven. He has become much more serious about football recently and with band. This make me hope that will help him stayed focused with a goal. He has to make grades for those classes. It is not that he makes horrible grades but he forgets to turn his work in and as we all know(except Steven) not turning it in is really bad on your grades. He has just finished his summer reading book and we are going to start on the questions asap. Plus, now that he finished it I will allow him to watch the movie. It was The Hobbit. I know, blah. I remember reading this type of stuff that is boring and hard to read but it is all for a purpose. There are some classics that some grow to love. I love Hemingway, Shakespeare, and E. Dickinson. Steven is just at the age where he has the opportunity to learn and enjoy what he is learning. I am going to work more one on one with him with his work. Just to be sure that it is getting finished properly. He does have a teacher who was a teacher when Gare, Blake, and I went through school and this teacher is a toughie but he can do it. I just know it. <br />
<br />
He does have issues taking tests. Especially timed ones, like the standardized versions. I remember tons of people who had a hard time with that though in school. He missed one area of his testing by 3 points. 3 people! That was like 1 answer. He is a slower reader than me and probably some other people. However, he can read. The school is wanting us to make him quit band and put him in a reading initiative program. That is great but he did these classes last year one day a week during band and it didn't make his score any better than the last. He always freaks out with tests that are timed. His semester grades are not bad, he is an A/B/C student. I did not allow them to take him out of band completely! He likes band and enjoys playing the drums. I also believe that a musical education is just as important as coursework. There are many people I know who use music as their jobs. So, Steven will be on lockdown with studies this year and hopefully he will absorb these study habits so he will make it one day on his own. <br />
<br />
I did talk to Steven about this and he really doesn't want to drop band. Yet, this is a make or break year and he must do better or he has a list of threats that he knows that me and his daddy are not afraid of….<br />
