Catching Up

I know, I know, it's been a long time again...but I have been busy. But it's not just the blog that has suffered, for instance, my house is a MESS !!!!! T-man and I went on vacation without DH and everything was a mess before we left, and low and behold, it was a mess when we got back, and our luggage added to the mess.

I know that school is out, but it still doesn't feel like summer. Right now, the weather isn't cooperating, and I don't feel like we have had a "down" day yet. Before we went on vacation, everything was all about getting ready for the pig roast, then we left. We had a great time. My friend A and I had a conference for school at Kahlahari resort here in Sandusky, and we got to take our kids, we took a few babysitters to keep the kids busy in the water park during the day, and had a great time. Everyone came home water logged, and tired but full of memories that will last a life time. T-man loves the arcade, he is truly a gamer...God help us when he is a teenager. (It's already a fight to make equal time for books) but he loved playing in the arcade and cashing in those tickets. The last night he was playing for the King Cobra rubber snake that was in the display case, and he was hitting all the games that would give him the most bang for his tokens, he was 19 tickets short when a very angelic woman came up to cash in her tickets...she heard me explaining to T that he was just a little short and apparently deciding that she didn't need a whoopi cushion, or a set of parachuting army men, she told the attendant to give all of her points to T. He was soooooo excited. He got the cobra (which gives me a heart attack everytime I stumble across it hiding in the toy box) plus !!!!!!!!! She made his day.

The best part of the week for me was when I got to watch T ride the Flow Rider. Here is a child that is usually very cautious, but he had no fear boogey boarding his way around the surf...over, and over, and over. He didn't know that I was watching at first, and when he saw me he lit up. The woman sitting next to me, didn't know that he was mine, and she kept saying "look at that little guy in line, are they really going to let him ride?!" When he did it, the whole crowd was cheering and yelling for him. I was so PROUD !!!!!!!!!! He is amazing. When I told him how proud I was he said "I'm just good at it mom, that's all" So humble !!!!1

Well, everyone keep your fingers crossed for me, I have had two interview for administrative positions lately, and I am hoping to hear this week if I got the job.

Now I need to finish up my swap box and get all of these goodies off to Kelly !!!!!! I am very excited to see what she sent me.
