BACK TO SCHOOL!!!

The kids started school last Thursday and they are doing so well! I'm excited that they both have really good teachers and that the kids enjoy going to school. It has been a blast being home with Sierra and Molly. We enjoy just hanging out doing puzzles and enjoying mother daughter things. I'm sure she is going to get bored pretty soon so I'm looking into putting her into a class for an hour or so during the day. I have been getting ready for another yard sale this week. Not expecting to do very well but I'm hoping to get rid of SOME stuff. I'm probably going to sell everything for $5.00 or even FREE!!! Those stupid McDonalds Happy Meal toys have taken range over my basement and I NEED to get rid of them. So yeah, lots of Happy Meal toys for FREE HERE!!!! Jake is still enjoying his job. I LOVE my job!!! We are getting LOTS of new lines in and I wish I could buy everything for the kids! That's about it!!!

Little Miss Molly Grace

This is Miss Molly Grace. She is our wonderful new addition to our family and we love her so much! The kids are very good w/ her and love to play w/ her.

More summer fun 2010

This summer has been lots of fun. The kids and I took off the last week of July and I drove by myself to New Hampshire with them. They did AWESOME going out there. Can't say the same on the way back though... UGH! It was the worst 18 hours of my life I think... While we were there visiting my mom we had so much fun. The kids always enjoy going to Grannas house. The boys are able to get up early and eat pancakes and then go get eggs. We didn't spend a lot of time at my moms house though. Mostly spent time at Mimi's house in the water and boating. Jake and I (well I) decided to scrape some of the ucky paint off moms house and we painted that over. James has started jumping off the dock and Jaren has started jumping off the ladder at the lake. My little buddy Chris and his wife Amy and Mia (the dog) came up to visit and while the kids were fishing and I was snorkling a snake swam over my back and I am still traumatized from it but I'm ok... Chris and I went snorkling and caught fish with nets. That was pretty fun! He actually caught a good size Bass that we could have eaten but didn't. Next year Chris, next year.... ;) We also went Crab fishing on the Cape which was awesome. I'm soooo addicted! They are better than Lobster and fun to catch. We picniced on Pitcher Mtn. and picked blueberries w/my mom and dad YES, mom and dad! Mom took James sailing on the sailfish and we were going to race but decided last minute we weren't going to. I hope we can do it next year. Got to catch frogs and salamanders up at my Godmothers house and do a bit of hiking. Went hiking up to Joggernaut Lake and saw lots of newts. Had lots of fun being w/ my grandmother and stopped at every craft store in NH and VT. Realized I'm not much one for nicnacks and such. Just would have bought everything I could w/ a moose or a bear on it.
