UPDATE AT LAST

This is Macee's school picture. I haven't mailed any out

yet hopefully soon. I told her she looked a little scared

and she said that the guy was stinky that's why she looked this way!?!?!

Just little info as to what we've been up to lately. We had a parent/teacher conference in September. Macee had 100's on all her math test, spelling test, and had 98% on reading test. Said she was an excellent student. We've been camping two weekends in a row. COLD COLD COLD!!!!. We took a few days off for fall break and went camping at Boggs. Then the next weekend we went camping at Boggs for the Halloween weekend. Macee is learning to ride her bike, She's received a lot of bumps and bruises. Macee is still learning piano and is still in girl scouts. The troop took a trip to Springmill park and learned pioneer games and made a toy.

Probably a lot more info I could put on here but for now that's the most important information.

We are looking forward to Thanksgiving and Christmas.

SORRY NO UPDATES!

JUST TO LET you know, We live in the land before internet ( we'll we could have satallite internet) so our blogging time has been cut down. Macee is in Daisy's ( Girl Scouts, which I happen to be the leader of) , takes piano lessons and has homework every night, plus with the recent wind we have extra work to do at the camp. So we don't have much time to go to my moms and blog. Maybe one day I'll take more time to blog.

JUST AN UPDATE

Thought I should just post a little about what's going on.

Macee's going to school all day and by the time she

gets home she is exhausted. We have not been doing

much except going to school and then home and

then over again the next morning. This coming

weekend, Labor Day, we are going camping

at Boggs so hopefully we'll have some new pics

to post next week.

Here's Our First Grader- Macee Sue

She was excited to see her friends.

Macee's swim lessons

Macee took swim lessons over the summer.

She did great this year. She even jumped off the

diving board by the end of the lessons.

Here she is with her swim instructor.

"HOME OF THE BRAVE"

Macee was in a patriotic musical

"Home of the Brave" . She performed

2 nights at the BNL PAC. All the kids

did a wonderful job.

It made me be thankful for our freedom.

VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL 2008

MOVING AGAIN

We will be short on blogs the next few weeks, sorry but we are moving to Shady Springs to be caretakers of the grounds. It is a really great oppurtunity and it will speed up our Dave Ramsey plan. We have been painting and cleaning this week along with Sandy running vbs this week. Our kitchen is orange and macees room is pink, We will post pics when we get moved in and cozy... Justin

GIRL SCOUT OVERNIGHT CAMPING!!

Thursday night Macee and I went on an overnight

camping trip with the girl scouts at Springmill State

Park. When we were on our way there we passed

a tempature sign that said 103 degrees, this was

at 6 p.m on thursday. I was thinking at this point...

WHAT HAVE I DONE. Even though it was really

hot we had a great time.

Macee enjoy some play time by swinging.


First on the list was to make our supper.
We made foil packs. You just put a bunch of
veggies and precooked meat, we had chicken,
in a foil pack that is sprayed with Pam
and fold it up and cook over the fire.
Pretty good.

Next we made a "situpon" you cover a pad with

waterproof material and stitch it together. Then

when you go to a game or outdoor event you

have something to sit upon.

Thirdly we made a edible fire. Marshmellows,

potato sticks, candy corn, pretzel sticks, pretzel

rods. You'd have to have been there to understand

this.

Macee, Jillian, and Meredith learning

fire safety.

If you are on fire... you STOP, DROP, AND ROLL.

Sitting around the camp fire listening to some songs.When it's all said and done, everyone goes to sleep.

If you notice the dates on the pics, this has changed

from the 6/12 to 6/13. Does that tell you

what time we went to sleep.

Overall we had a great time.

A FUN DAY WITH BROOKLYNN

Wednesday Brooklynn stayed with us while

Jennifer cooked at youth camp. Bailey was gonna
