Stevie and I are heading out for some Mom and Son time. My baby often gets scrambled together with the others and never gets the one on one he should get once in awhile. Today the others are all off to Cedar Point with Dad...he is not fond of the coasters so we stayed back.
We are going to a 1 o'clock movie..'The Other Guys' with Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg...should be funny.....and planning to have a popcorn lunch!!
The heading to the mall to find him some school shoes and maybe some shorts and shirts. High school....wow...I am so excited for him but oh so sad that my babies are growing up so fast!!
Then he chose APPLEBEES for dinner.....gosh, I love hanging out with this boy!! lol
Tomorrow back to the crazy schedules and chaos. (Steve took tomorrow off to recover from the CP trip....they will get home late and he will need the sleep.... he took 6 teens....lol that brave man. Our 2 oldest, Kyle (our other son, Koda's good friend), Richard (our nephew) and his friend Tad, and our niece Jordyn.
We're off.

she's baaaaccckkkk
Kind of. I am so stinkin crazy busy I do not spend time on the computer. I am on it all day at work, then I go to my other job, then home to catch up on laundry, my wildly overgrown garden and boys.
My ankle....defninite Achilles tendon tear. Podiatrist suggested trying a custom fitted 'brace' until Nov....then look at it again with an MRI if no improvements....surgery to re-attach. Checked out the brace....$450 out of pocket!! Hmm, and then surgery? ouch. Talked with more nurses and another dr....they all say tendons rarely heal.....very little blood flow to them. I have read and read online and see the same. Not convincing me into spending $450 out of pocket yet!!
My boys....Koda is finally back on track. He agrees he needs to go to school...yeah!! I am so happy that I just chilled out and let him find his way (Thanks Beth for the pep talks!!), Jake is a sophomore and playing JV football, and my baby, Steve, is a freshman!! Literally, I cried the other day when I said this outloud....I cannot believe my babies are so darn old. How did this happen so fast?!
Steve Sr hurt his back at work....still working just lighter duty and doing therapy....most days are better.
My 3 guys + 4 extras are heading to Cedar Point on Sunday for the day!! God love my husband....he is the leader and such a trooper. Leaving here at 8am and should be home by midnight!!
Stevie and I are staying home and I think doing some school clothes shopping and going to dinner and a movie.
Vacation days for me today and yesterday. Trying to catch up and free my brain of some overload. Last night we drove to Holland and met my family....Mom & Noel, Dad, Bill & Alyssa, Tim & Barb at West Ottawa High School to watch Jake play football. It was great to visit and have them all get to see Jake play.
The score....wow....not good. BUt good times with good company!! Long long day!! WE got home around 11pm!!
I am off to get some things done. XXOO Peace.

Great Monday!!
I took a vacation day yesterday to 'put the icing on the cake' after a super weekend. I had such a great day...hated to see it come to an end. Ugh. Hate the many miles that now seperate us from our favorite friends.
2 lakes...loads of fun and awesome memories.
It was so nice to see Karen again! It's been a long time!! Thanks again Karen for letting Jake and I join the fun too, we had a great time. (Jake slept until 1pm today....he was exhausted!!lol)
Karen, Beth and I on Karen's pontoon!! |
The crew!! They had so much fun fishing and swimming.....diving and jumping!! |
Jake was trying to walk on water....lol |
Nope...Benton Harbor. Anyone want to come stay with me? No takers? I am shocked.
