1st Day of School

FREEDOM!!!!! Oh, I mean, its the first day of school. The boys got off on the bus okay this morning and I'm sure I'll find out this afternoon whether they found their classrooms okay or not. I'm also sure that they will tell me all about what their friends did over the summer and many other things, plus bring me home a stack of paper work to fill out. Why is it that Mom gets a ton of homework on the first day of school? Haven't I already done my fair share of homework during my lifetime? LOL!

Later today I will get to pick my boys up and take them to Dairy Queen for ice cream. This has become our little tradition, plus I need to make it up to them for 'torturing' them yesterday with a dentist appointment and an eye doctor appointment. Oh the cruel and unusual punishments that moms come up with!

Fore!!!!!

I have found something else my boys got from their father....how to cheat! Michel 'cheats' at "Monopoly" (all of the sudden when he starts to lose, he teams up with someone) and the boys cheat at putt-putt. They have decided that you can take as many practice strokes as necessary until you get a hole in one or you can get a score that is on par. By the end of the 18 holes, I started using their philosophy too. Why not, it worked for them?! I still didn't win though, but neither did Dillon. Darian took that honor - although if we counted all of his practice strokes, Dillon would've come closer to winning. LOL!
