BACK TO SCHOOL

Well the time has come for the girls to go back to school Kylee in 5Th and Taylor starts off in Kindergarten. They are so excited to go to school. We have done a ton of shopping and preparing (I am the organization queen when it comes to office/school supplies). OK so last year I had this wonderful job at a Motel I left after the kids went to school and got home before they did. Taylor was in pre-school and I got to take her with me to work for an hour and then take her to school.
My dad would then pick her up and take her my grandmas house until I got done at work. So this year we learned that Taylor would be in the afternoon class and we wondered how that was going to work I would not be able to leave work at noon to drive back home (10 min) to get her to school, so after a lot of idea tossing between Chad and I it hit me one day. I will quit my job and stay home, something i should have done years ago. However that posed a money problem so in order to help out with that I decided I would go to the school district and register to be a substitute lunch cook. so still I will not have to work when kids are not in school. Then next year if there is an opening for a full time cook I can get on. (rules are you have to sub for a year before getting on full time.) Problems solved. And what did Chad say to my spur of the moment idea "Wonderful!! That is a great idea" . So I gave my notice at work and I am done September 5Th and my stay at home mom adventure begins, I am so thrilled.

Figuring this out

I have just about got this figured out. My hubby is the computer guy, and I just don't know much so I have been learning.
The last month has been a busy one, with spring finally getting here(yard work), kids getting out of school and summer activities. Kylee passed 4Th grade with all E's ( the elementary equivalent of an A), and Taylor graduated Pre-School she is so excited to go to kindergarten, she is so smart. The girls also just finished a year of dance. Kylee had a competition class and her team won one of their competitions and took third and the other. This was Tays first year so she didn't do comps, but did an amazing job at the dance review. Both girls want to take some summer tumbling classes and we are still trying to work that out. I think Kylee will do dance again in the fall but when I asked Tay she said no mom I like to dance but it makes me to tired. That girl makes me laugh. I hope you all have a great summer I think we will we have a lot to do.

New blog

Hi all!! I thought it would be fun to do this blog thing. I got the idea from Chads nephew Skyler and his beautiful wife Lauren. I look at their blog all the time, it is so fun to see what they have been up to and look at the cute pics of their cute daughter Cali Sue (named after her grandma Susan). So anyway I thought I would also give it a try. Let me know what you think ;)
