Eclipse!


Okay so the movie was AWESOME!!!!!I think Edward looks great in this movie and I can't wait to see it again!! It was the best one by far! It was fun doing the Twilight, New Moon before hand too! It was a long time to sit but there were breaks in between! When we got to the theater one of the local news stations was there. The lady saw my Burger King crown and asked if I had a extra and I did and gave it to her. They were filming us while we were waiting but I don't know if I made the news? I wasn't home to watch! So it was Rob and I Brandy and Michael and then Laura we had a good time and I am going on only three hours of sleep so I think I will be going to bed as soon as I get the kids to sleep cause I am pooped! But I even with being tired I still went out and did my walking!!

Sorry still here.....

So it has been a little busy around here since the kids been out of school but I am still alive and well!! HaHa! I needed to find something to keep Savannah busy this summer because she is my hardest because she isn't very good at entertaining herself so I found out that during the summer the little town next to us which is bigger than our town has a swim team at their pool so signed her up since she loves the water she is taking after her mother!! I will have to take some pictures at one of her practices to post up here. She is really enjoying it and is totally tan already!! So she has it Monday through Friday every week til summer is over from 11 am to 12:30. Then the kids school does a free lunch program where they have lunch in the cafeteria monday through Friday for kids 18 and under the parents can eat but they have to 3.70 for their lunch so we drop Savannah off then head over to school lunch then kids play on the playground til it is time to pick Savannah up! So needless to say it has kept my days busy! I have also been trying to get the yard into better shape still in progress!! I have also been getting ready for our trip to California so very exciting! The kids keep asking do we leave today! Also I need to post every Friday of my progress but I had told you guys about a challenge I was doing the 120 mile challenge and since I was already training for the 1/2 marathon it wouldn't be a problem. Well I am proud of myself I have been doing very well. The goal for the month is to do 40 miles by June 30th well as of today I have done 54 miles and we still have a couple days! I was getting a little frustrated because I have been walking at least 3 miles to 5 miles a day for four weeks now and haven't lost one pound! UGH!! But have notice my body has changed some and a few friends have said the some things too! And I remembered I had measured my waist and hips for some free diet website awhile ago and was curious to see if I lost any inches so went and got the measurements from awhile ago and GUESS WHAT!! I have lost 3 inches in my waist and 2 inches in my hip!!!! So now that makes me happy!!!
And then there is tomorrow I am going to see ECLIPSE!! I am so excited!!!! Can not wait!!! So that should catch you guys up a little bit! We leave for Cali on Thursday we will drive to Robs moms house after my daycare kid Carter gets picked up and stay the night and get up early Friday and put the kids in the car hoping they will sleep for a couple hours more and then the trip wont be so long! It is only 5 hours from Robs moms house! A very exciting week and I will have to post all my pics when I get home!! Wish me luck on my trip with five kiddos by myself!!

Kids last Day of School!

So today was the kids last day of school! I don't know how excited I am about that cause now I have to keep them busy for the next three months! But I do love the fact that I don't have homework for awhile! Yeah who would of thought you do homework all over again once your kids start school and I have three kids worth of homework! So I wanted to share pictures of the kids with there teachers! I am grateful for teachers because I certainly couldn't do what they do! Especially with all the budget cuts these days teaching is becoming harder?


This is Sage with her teacher Mrs. Brooks (Savannah also had her in kindergarten) I really like her I wish Hunter would of had her for kindergarten too but oh well. The kids love her and it has been great to work with her. Such a sweet lady who is perfect to teach kindergarten.

This is Hunter with his teacher Mrs. Sims there isn't enough words to tell you how wonderful of a teacher she is I wish that all teachers could be like her. Savannah had her in first grade to but I had the chance to get to know her really well this year I helped in the class every Tuesday and I loved it. It was so nice to go into the kids class to see what they did everyday. Mrs. Sims has been wonderful with helping me learn about Hunter and his learning disabilities and has been great with getting him the extra help that he needs. He is being further tested so hopefully we will know more for next year!

So here is Savannah with her teacher Ms. Newman she is really nice and Savannah really enjoyed her. She is a shy teacher but I got to know her somewhat when I went into the class to help out!

Big Goal!

Ok so in the weight loss department I have stayed the same and have been getting frustrated in not losing anymore! So I need to get stricter about my weight watchers again and I had set a goal of doing a 5k when my friend Brandy said hey there is a half marathon the first weekend of Sept why don't we do it together and get whoever else wants to do it! You don't have to run the whole so I said okay I would do it! We started our training last week and it is going good! So then my friend Shannon told me about a blog she goes to that is having a 120 miles in three months challenge she signed up to do so I did to so now I have double the motivation!!! I am kinda excited about it and having a goal to accomplish! So hopefully I will see some pounds start to come off again!! I have about 5lbs to lose to reach my next weight loss goal but still have 40lbs I would like to lose to be at my goal weight which seems so far off!!! So any of you want to do 120 miles to we can keep each other motivated!!! http://nutsinanutshell.blogspot.com/ is the blog!
