Well I still have not gotten the vacation pictures scanned into the computer yet, but I have managed to completely clean off my desk and all drawers and compartments so if I do get the urge to scan pictures this week I can at least work at a clean space.

Not alot going on here, last Tuesday sept 11th the kids participated in punt,pass and kick, something that pepsi and gatorade put on every year, kids 8-15 are divided into age groups and get one chance to pass, punt, and kick the football , the distance is measured and recorded. First place winners in each age division get to go on to other competitions, until finally out of all the states competitors you have a boy and girl winner for each age group that get to do thier final competition at an nfl game, I think the super bowl I am not sure, anyways Hanna placed SECOND place in her school! yeah Hanna! She has a certificate and a pretty red ribbon. Corey and I are so proud of her! Two other girls in her class Kayla got the first place and Leanne also will go on in the competition. Good Luck Kayla and Leanne!!

Michael was sent home from school on Wednesday, we got a phone call at 1:45 saying that Michael had an accident and had slid down the wall into an electrical outlet plate that was exposed on the gym wall, apparently there were cones set up around the area to keep kids from bumping into it, Michael was playing dodgeball got hit by several balls at once stumbled backwards into the cones which he then tripped over and fell against the electrical outlet caught and tore through his shirt and left a 3-4inch gash on his back and was gaping open, probably going to have to go get it stiched up to close the gash...Corey was off that day, so he went to the school to get him, since the nurses office insisted that he needed to be picked up so that he could get his back looked at. Corey brings him home we take off the bandage that the nurses office put on him, and could not believe that they seriously sent michael home for this!! it was a SCRATCH!! sure it was 3-4 inches long maybe an inch or more wide, but it was a scratch! there was no depth to it! it looked like he had tried to shave and just took off that top layer of skin, it was hardly bleeding, all I could do was laugh, I could not believe they sent him home for this, at this time it was a little after 2 and michael gets out of school at 2:25 had it been earlier I would have taken him right back to school. Michael said the office called him back up to the nurses station the next day, they wanted to know if he had gone to the hospital, he said no it is just a scratch, he does have a nice sized bruised around that area though and was a little sore from that.

Not much else going on around here, weather has been so beautiful the kids have been trying to stay outside and enjoy as much as they can everyday, Corey has been working long hours, and I just doing the usual housework and running errands,and hanging outside with zeus playing ball since the days have been so nice and cool, I can't wait for fall!
