Ok all my lurkers and regulars!!!! I have been put in charge of coming up with a fundraiser for Taylor's soccer team. What are some good ideas for this that people will actually buy? Candles, chocolate bars, etc. PLEASE HELP!! I know Little Caesars pizza kits were popular and raw cookie dough.... Ok, I am rambling... HELP!!!!
We have been bussssy! Sports are finally winding down for the kids. Megan and Jon are done with lacrosse and soccer. Taylor has her softball playoffs tonight, but is done with soccer. I don't see her team making it much further than tonight or Thursday at the latest.
We are going camping this weekend with the kids. About 25 minutes from our house. It is a beautiful state park. We are having a lot of our nieces and nephews stay with us. This weekend is supposed to be 80 and Sunny! Yeah!!
Kids are out of school finally! Taylor had a graduation ceremony because she is moving up a school. She won an award for physical education called the National Physical Fitness Award. She also won an award for having perfect attendance this year. Yeah Taylor!
I will post pics of Megan's friend birthday party as soon as I get them transferred over!
Back to training class...Here we go!
Go Wings!!!! Yeah Detroit!! We finally need something else to talk about around here besides Kwame Kilpatrick and his nonsense. I am not sure what Jon and I are going to watch at night now that Pistons are out of the running and Wings finally did it. Well, I guess we still have the Tigers...
I can't believe it...Megan is now a preschool graduate! It was so nice. The preschoolers did a little program and then had their names called to recieve their certificates. They got to stand on a podium and everything! Megan's teachers put together a nice slide show with pictures. The teachers also made photo albums for all of the students, got them books, and teddy bears. Megan was in heaven with all of the gifts.

Jon had a day long tournament yesterday at Cranbrook. Now, I am all for supporting him in his sports, but 4 games in one day?? His first game was at 8am and he had to be there at 7am. We live over an hour away from Cranbrook which meant leaving our house on a Sunday morning at 5:45 am. I don't even leave that early for work! So, we head to Cranbrook, the sun is shining and it is warming up nicely...Then....the sun goes away and it drops about 20 degrees in 3 minutes. We all wore tank tops and shorts... BIG MISTAKE. After freezing for an hour hoping to get the sun back I head over to buy us all hoodies. I was shocked at the good deal on got on them! I know I had checked the weather that morning and it said sunny and 80. WTF???? Finally we got our sunny and 80 at about 3:30 in the afternoon. So, needless to say, 7 and 1/2 hours later and 50 bucks lighter, we had warmth and sunshine! His last game was at 5pm. Ugh!! He and team did well though. They won 2 and they lost 2. That is good for his team.....
We celebrated Megan's birthday on Saturday with the family. What a blast Megan had. It was sunny and warm (thank goodness), so everyone could be outside. I still cannot believe she is 5 already. On Wednesday of this week she graduates from preschool. Earlier in the day Megan had a soccer game scored the winning goal for her team! Yeah Meg!! That makes 5 goals for this season... What an all-star!
