Major Slacker!!!!!

A friend let me know that I have been slacking in updating the blog so I thought while I had a rare few minutes, I would update it! We have been preparing for school lately. Since my last post, the girls finished up camp (which they absolutely loved) and we have been busy ever since - lol. I will post some random pics when I am done. We have been trying to see friends before school starts because it will be sheer madness I tell ya after that. So, what have we all been doing and what is going on???

Me - I am still volunteering for the Collin County Humane Society and our last foster was adopted - YAY! I pick up our next foster tomorrow and then we are taking a fostering break until after the holidays. I just have too much going on! I will however still do the adoption events and the other events inbetween. I start back to school on Aug 25th and am taking 2 online classes and good grief are books expensive!! I have taken a semester off since I threw 3 babies showers in the Spring. This fall, I have the girls birthday parties, football games for B, events with the CCHS, studying, PTA, holiday's, a bridal shower I am helping to throw, a bachlorette party, and 2 5K's in Sept (maybe more if I can squeeze them in and get back to the gym). I will also be v0lunteering at Brittany's school!! OH - I will also be helping some at Meet the Teacher next week. Busy times for sure but I am excited to get everything started.

Mike is doing well at his new job however, he misses more of the tech side since he is not doing so much of it now.

Brittany has started cheerleading practice but we aren't allowed to stay and watch. I am OK with it because I think she will do better without me there (she kept turning around to find me at the first one) but how do I know what she needs help with??? UGH.......she is loving so far and looks WAY too cute cheering. She has cheerleading camp next week as well as Meet the Teacher, her first pep rally next Fri and their first game next Sat in big ole Pottsboro! Another friend of mine's duaghter is on Brittany's squad so it should be fun. There is a total of 30 girls on the squad (k-2nd). We find out tomorrow who Brittany has for Kinder and I think I am as excited as she is! Brittany has also really been wanting to take Ice Skating lessons!!

Kiley is just a ball of fire and energy! She doesn't start Preschool until Sept 3rd and she will be starting a new school. I really wanted her to go where B went but with lovely price gouging at the pump, she will have to stay close to home. We are excited about her new school and I will really enjoy not having to drive so much this fall. She will go on M, W and Fridays so she is excited for sure. Other than that, not too much going on with her. We are looking into an activity for her. I think she would love dance but not sure how the recital time would go as she doesn't even like walking into a crowded room. I am afraid if we do soccer that she will just take the ball from people - lol. She is a tough little girl!

The girls recently got the Bitty Twins from American Girl so we will see how they like them!

Mike and I are SO glad it is football season again!!!


So, there ya have it - just a quick update on all of us :-).
