Church Picnic

So, today was the church picnic. The kids look forward to this every year! This is one of the highlights: There are not too many playgrounds around with a real merry-go-round. Last year, Capps threw up on it. This morning at breakfast he asked, "Do you think they've cleaned up my throw-up?"

Capps' Buddies

Along with Goodwin from the previous post, these are Capps' best buddies: Aubrey, Keegan and Eli. Aubrey is always hanging with the guys!

Capps and Eli, being silly!We hear about these friends every night at dinner.

Fall Parties 2011

Yesterday I was in bed all day on a heating pad. I twisted funny and hurt my back - unfortunately, not my lower back, but a new problem - my upper back? Totally immobilized.

So, I was glad to be able to make it to the Fall Parties today. I was also glad that the four I had to get to were a little more spaced out than normal.

Capps' class had lots of cool crafts and they did caramel apples.

I loved this one where they traced their hand/arm for tree trunk and put fingerprint leaves everywhere!

Capps and Goodwin!
Micheala and Capps coloring!Daegan's class had a few crafts also And some goofy games outside. Tavis class had many, many crafts, but they also played outside - a little "Simon says"
And a bean bag toss.
Not sure what all Mollee's class did, but I did make it for Musical Chairs
and a mean game of Bingo!
Mollee's last Elementary School Fall Party. *sniff*

Then, back to the heating pad....

100 Years!

Today, Jason's Grandmother turns 100! Can you imagine? The kids were so excited to have something like that to tell at school today.To one spunky old lady, Happy Birthday!!!

This is why I can never find a belt for the boys on Sunday morning....

Flipin' Fool

If you've been around Mollee lately, you may of seen her randomly break out into a cartwheel. I actually saw it happen in Wal-Mart today. "Oops" was the response.
And she wonders why her back is always sore?I can remember doing this all the time myself! *a long time ago*

At least she is the smart fan in the family!ROLL TIDE!

The Professor

That is what Uncle Tom (Schreiner) calls him.

Remember this, it didn't work, but I can take a sign of relief with The Professor.
He gets an assignment every Friday that is due the next Thursday. He usually has it done by 4:15 on Friday afternoon. Thank you, Jesus!
