Um... Not really sure how to title this

For one Wednesday night church in October, it was Mask Night (at least for Middle School) and, of course, Isaac had to join in!

The boys decided to cut up a pair of John's old jeans, with permission, and fashion masks out of them...

 Jakob as "Gladiator Boy"

Isaac as "The Wrangler"

 Christian as "Denim Dude"

and these are the "Levi-tes"

 I think their faces are almost as entertaining as the masks!

Wordless Wednesday (kinda)

(Life through the eyes of a 10 year old...)

First day of school

All my babies (I know, they aren't babies anymore... but they always will be to me!) are in school this year!

Chris is in 7th grade, Jake is in 6th grade and Isaac is in 1/2 day kindergarten! It's hard to believe that are all old enough to be in school all day.

Its so sad that they aren't photogenic. And they really hate their picture being taken... So sad.

Yeah, yeah... it's been a while

A few things have happened since I last blogged... I will get to that, eventually!

Yesterday, Chris and Jake went with their school to the beach for the SOLV Beach Clean-up! It was supposed to be several weeks ago, but that weekend had crazy windy and rainy weather, so they rescheduled.

I dropped them off at the school, (8:15 AM on a SATURDAY MORNING, mind you) and as I was walking away from the bus, both boys - at separate times - ran off the bus and gave me a hug and kiss. I was shocked, stunned and blissfully happy!!! It was so unexpected, it brought tears to my eyes.

Chris and Jake were gone all day - they did the beach clean for a few hours and then went to the Outlet Mall for some window shopping... I gave them each $5 to spend on snacks or whatever they chose. Of course, they both bought candy. Jake came home with a Jawbreaker bigger than a golf ball that he had been licking on for an hour... Joy. They did think of Isaac and brought a smaller Jawbreaker home for him.

For some reason, Chris did some 'dumpster diving' while he was there... and came home with 2 exit signs, bubble wrap, small cardboard box, wire, rope. Seriously? I mean, really...? Why.

It was a good day!

(sorry there is no picture... My computer crashed and had to be reloaded, I haven't put the pics back on it yet!)
