Up Too Early

Wishing I was still asleep I am up early this Saturday morning. Jacob is up early! During the week I usually have to wake him up to get ready for school, but it is Saturday morning our day to sleep in and he gets up at 6:45, gotta love it! We are going to be very busy we have a lot on our to do list today. We are having Jacob's birthday party next Saturday so there is a lot to do to get ready for it. He is getting a swing set for his birthday so we have to ge pick one out and put it up, actually that is more Kev's job, it his on his list today along with mowing the lawn. We love owning a home but you sure do keep busy on the weekends with all there is to do. Only 4 more weeks of school, I can't believe my baby is going to be a first grader!!! I will be subbing for one of the 1st grade teachers for about the first month of school while she is on maternity leave. I'm excited, I think! It will be a lot of work but it is only for a month so it can't be that bad. I am looking foward to the summer. We will be going to California and to Tennesse. Jacob will be playing basketball through the YMCA with some of the boys from school, he is really excited. We will hopefully be speding a lot of time swimming and enjoying the warmer weather until July when it gets too hot and then all you want to do is stay inside. Well I better get to our "To Do" list. We hope everyone has a great weekend!!!

For Spring Break last month we went to the Bahamas! We had so much fun. We drove to Florida, a very long drive, but we got to see a lot of stuff. We went to New Orleans and saw the destruction left by the hurricanes and I could not believe how bad it still looks. There were block and blocks of houses that were completely destroyed. We drove to Ft. Lauderdale, FL to board the ship for the Bahamas. While there we did a lot of swimming on the beach and went snorkeling. Snorkeling was absolutely beautiful. After the Bahamas we went to Miami Beach and Key West. Then on the way home we went for a swamp boat tour in Louisiana and saw alligators, Jacob really loved that. Here are some of the pictures from our trip.

have her as part of our family, she is a lot of
fun to have around.

I'm a new Blogger!

Hello to everyone. I am really excited to have a family blog. My friend Jessica told me about this and I thought what a great idea to create this for our family. I hope to be able to keep it updated so that family and friends who are interested can log on and see what our family is up to.
