School starts Monday - Bummer. Family Reunion is next week/weekend - Yeah! I've tried to get ahead on my studies so I can miss school without causing problems for myself. I'm trying to have everything ready for the trip by Sunday. I have the kiddos almost completely packed. I even have Caden's Oklahoma trip packed. My boy is going to stay with his Bam and Papaw while they are in OK. I was, correction am, a little shaky about Caden being so far away. However, I'm also very excited for him to have special time with his grandparents. And Caden, he is BEYOND excited.
I still have soo much to do. Housework, schoolwork, packing. I need ONE more day! On the upside I am finally caught up with the laundry. The last time this house saw a clean laundry room was when my Mom stayed with us in February! Damn school.We went swimming this weekend. I am very motivated to start exercising...not because I am worried about my figure. But because I found that my left leg is still very weak. It wasn't long ago that I treaded water out in the Gulf of Mexico for long stretches of time...I could barely tread water in a 5 foot pool this weekend!
We also took the kids to do lots of fun things, just the four of us. We played putt putt golf, rode go-carts, took Caden ice-skating, rode rides in the mall in Odessa, and had things we normally don't like chocolate milk, Sprite, and lots and lots of ice cream. I'm trying so hard to teach my kids that cokes are for special times like vacation and what not. We don't order cokes with meals. The ice skating was classic...Caden was hell bent on going. This mall has a rink and once he spied it, he was determined. Neither Wesley or I could go onto the ice with him, but he had a blast hugging the wall and pulling himself along. I fixed big breakfast this weekend and managed not to burn anything. Caden loves "pan-panks." So does Mattie.
I have more to say, but it's just not coming together tonight. I will get on pictures soon. I really will. Love to all!

Dang Mornin Glorie... I want to stay with Bam too...ILYM
p.s...you could still tread water in the gulf - the salt water makes you bouyant - at least I know I can stay up without even moving a limb..I can't wait to see you!!!!
I hope you have a great time at the reunion. I'm glad to hear school is coming along for you. I'm so proud of you
I'm heading to gulf tomorrow myself. We'll see how long I can tread water.
(((hugs)))
