Paw Paw vs. Vicksburg

What a game!  42-0 Paw Paw!  Vicksburg has an amazing stadium and it was Tylers first away game and very first time playing on the big boys fields...with turf.  He had a ball.  Played almost the entire game too.  Sam was have because she had Taeh to play with.  Great afternoon!









Paint Ideas so far

Here are my first color choices for the living room, hallways, stair well, mud room, kitchen and dining room

Living room will be vintage wine (behind couch, window/front door wall and stairway).  TV wall will be the coordinating light khaki along with the wall that leads into my bedroom and down the kids hallway.

Living room paint color

Dining room will be the new hope gray OR the spring meadow.

Dining Room-spring meadow

This shows a picture with the chambord and spring meadow: picture of spring meadow

Dining Room-new hope grey

Mud room will also be the light khaki.

Grape and Wine

Parade.  While Dan packed up his garage we went to the parade in Paw Paw.  We met Remi and Janice.  It was a perfect afternoon.




Just for fun

Sam and I went to the Paw Paw JV vs Coloma football game.  Sat with the crazy Vandenbergs...Morgan took this picture of Sam.  CRACKS ME UP


Braces are on!

LIKE A CHAMP.  He did so well.  I don't want to say it was surprising....however, he amazed me.  In the car I told him if he has questions or gets nervous to ask.  He did just that.  He asked the dentist what everything was and what they were doing.  He was polite and so grown up.  Although, it looks painful he barely complained.  I gave him motrin and it seemed to work.  With a couple "my mouth hurts' comments he just sucked it up and made it through.  I love this kid....but when did he get so big?

GREAT morning at football!

Seriously doesn't get more fun!  Tyler is LOVIN' football right now.  He wants to eat more and exercise more.  Todays game was amazing, he finally got MAD and AGGRESSIVE.  He was DONE with the other kids pushing him around.  It was fun to watch.  He got a little hurt but sucked it up and played on.  I am one proud mom.  Football is teaching tyler so many things beside just the game!

2nd day of school

Some parents get first day of school pictures.  HOwever, since it is always my first day too.  I can't see them on the bus, nor can I be there when they get off.  BUT, I got there in time for day 2!  Happy School Year....Tyler 3rd grade and Sam 1st



New Classroom





I still can't believe how amazing my classroom looks.  All new technology, desks, paint, carpet....its amazing!  And my view is amazing.  I get the sun every morning shining over the NEW football field in my NEW window.

Pond is filling up

The pond is slowly filling up.  AND...our neighbors got a pony and horse.  The fense butts up right next to our property.  We get to enjoy them too.


Football has begun

Tyler has enjoyed football...sweat, aching body, exhaustion and all!  Crazy kid!  He won his first game.
