Decathlon

Our thirteen yr. old went to his decathlon meet did real well. We all attended the awards ceremony he ended up getting one third place medal, one second place medal, and three first place medal. his team was first place for teams and e made first place over out county in his grade level. Went he got up every time his name was called all you could hear was clank..clank..clank from his medals around his neck. That boy had the biggest smile you ever seen.

The truck

Well the truck broke down again. he had it fixed on the 8th of april and it broke down on the 14th. Less then a week later so yesterday the 15th my husband had to take the camper to work. This place he works at does not allow you to drive campers to work. It made it an interesting day for him. I got a phone call after work was over from him telling me the tire on the back was flat and the other was extremely low. He ended up going to his dads house to fix the tires. When it rains it pours. One thing after another seems to happen. So we have not had a chance to look under the hood to see what is wroung. We know it is something we wont like it died on the way home from work with no noise of any kind. I know what we will be doing this weekend.

Easter

Well it went great all things considered. My husband was not moving around very good but he was their for the baskets, egg hunt, and dinner. Although he did not really eat due to the surgery. The kids had a blast my middle boy the 6 yr. old found the most eggs. We went to the park down the road from us for an Easter egg hunt. They seemed to enjoy it more then the ones we have at home. The boy dyed 4 1/2 dozen eggs the night before we could not eat all of them. From hard boiled eggs, deviled eggs, potato salad..... anything to do with boiled eggs I made it. Boy am I glad that is over I think everyone it tiered of eggs lol. The boys loved their baskets filled with all kinds of candy, sidewalk chalk, and paddeles with the ball tied to it. It was a long but fun day everyone enjoyed it.

It has been a while

Well were to start..... Tings have been non stop around here. My husband had surgery he had his gallbladder out as well as his lump. Which was not cancer thank god. That was done on good friday so we spent the day at the hospital and the kids spent the day with grandpa. Everything went ok he has been sore for the last week but is doing great. My husband went to Arizona to a football coaching clinic this last weekend. He had a great time from the sound of everything. Just before good fri. the truck broke down he started working on it and finished in on the 7th of april. Which just happened to be my grannys b-day 87th. So while he spent the afternoon working on a truck I went with my three boys to my grannys. Where my aunt and uncle from L.A. were. My brother sister-in-law and their son came over. We all had a nice dinner and visit the cuz enjoyed playing together.
