rain + dirt = muddy boys

We have had so much rain this summer! At our house, that means lots of mud!It hasn't kept the boys from their summer fun. PJ and Cubby rode bikes in the field and found a huge mud puddle to ride through. However, one of the puddles was so deep that it was hard to ride all the way through it. The first time they came back to the house they had mud all over their clothes. They stripped down and I gave them swim trunks to go play in... It was fun for them but they STUNK!

Payton has been riding a lot in the arena. He is riding Jory's good rodeo horse Hunk. PJ is so good and natural on a horse just like his daddy. He looks so little on big ol' Hunk!

SCHOOL IS OUT FOR SUMMER...

Oh my... time has flown by! So much has been happening yet I am sooo behind on blogging. For starters, PJ has officially graduated second grade! He had a great year and a great teacher. He did a great job in second grade. He is so ready for summer however and how can I blame him... he is the first kid there in the morning and the last one to leave after school because of my schedule. On the last day he got to meet his third grade teacher. I cannot believe my baby is going to be in third grade!!! Before school was out Payton's class had a talent show. It was so cute and funny. Payton of course, showed off his roping skills. He didn't understand why everyone laughed when he said, "I'm gonna be roping the dummy". Mrs. Henderson asked how long he has been roping and he said, "pretty much my whole life". FUNNY BOY!





I have officially graduated first grade myself... I had another great year and super students. I will miss them! About a month before school got out I was informed that I was being reassigned to fifth grade for my fifth year of teaching! I was really sad because I have loved being a first grade teacher. However, time has eased my pain and I am actually looking forward to the change now. It is a huge change though. When I graduated college I NEVER had intentions of ever teaching the little ones. I'm glad I had the experience and maybe one day I will "choose" to go back. :)



Summer is already starting off crazy! Between PJ's baseball, Jory's roping, and my softball and volleyball we are go, go, going... I also have picked up a fun new little summer job. My cute sub the past 3 years opened up a fun little pub in town and I have been working weekends the past month on top of everything else. It has actually been a really fun job. I am going to work 2-3 nights a week. I have never had so many duckets in my wallet! $$$

Anyways, I will try to keep up at least once a week on my blogging but you never know! Tomorrow I am going to paint my bathroom. I am ready for a home spa feeling to relax in after all the craze! It's time to freshen it up! Happy summer to all!!!
