Digital Vacation Photos

I did get some pictures on my digital....not of Six Flags or of the actual canoe trip...they will come later....

Vacation

We went canoeing with 3 other families down in Missouri. We had a blast! Canoeing zoomed by though and we were done in no time! But the kids played, we had great food and company too! Can't wait to do it next year!
Then us four headed to Six Flags....after we stuffed the little Yaris up to the brim...literally!
Six flags isn't much of a family place any more....Jesse wouldn't go on much cause he was too scared....so they had smaller rides or bigger rides, but not much in between.... We spent a wad for nothing....good things tickets were free! Parking and stroller and food....WOW!!!!! We decided to do the cabins at the KOA...$10 more, but there was a storm last night...good thing! We "lost" our green tubes....the wind blew everything thing down...only at our site....the tubes...well we saw them on someone else's porch! Not sure if they were there's or if they took them or if they blew over there.....wasn't wanting a fight so we left them....$4 gone! I know we're chicken, but if they took them they must have really needed them....I put it on my comment card....we had fun being a family on vacation though....we don't do that often enough!
(My battery was dead on the digital...so I show pictures later when I have them developed)

Jesse's Birthday Party

Jesse had his 10th birthday in Springfield at Chuck E Cheese with his step-cousin Kasey (her 1/2 birthday). He actually ended up coming home from camp early due to possible sun poisoning and/or the flu. (He will hopefully get every one's cards sent to him here at home.) For his actual birthday, he was on the couch sick! But he did get feeling better by Saturday which was when we had his party. Oh, and he gave it to me which I then gave to Steve....

Please help with Jesse's Birthday Card Shower

This is the first time ever that Jesse won't be home for his birthday!
He chose to go to church camp during his birthday! How awesome is that! I was wondering if we could shower him like crazy with birthday cards....I think he would get the biggest kick out of that! And you only turn 10 once!

He will be at camp June 15th - the 20th (His birthday is on the 19th). If you are able to send a card or a little note, please send it a little early so that it arrives on time!

THANKS for helping a mom make her son's b-day special! Okay... this mom might be more sentimental than he will be! I mean...my baby...turning 10!!!!!

His camp address:
Jesse Wright
Self Defense Camp
Jensen Woods Camp
RR #1, Box 150
Timewell, IL 62375

Up Dates

Okay a few up dates and info!!!!

Summer is as busy as the school year! This weekend was a busy one too!

Friday...Tae Kwon Do clinic....Beware, I can flip and fing mean nunchucks! Watch your toes too cause I drop them a lot!

Saturday we saw Indian Jones' new movie....Not the best plot of the four! Jesse loved it!
Then we spent the night grocery shopping....what a night!

Sunday our anniversary!
We enjoyed our 12th...doing nothing together or alone...kids, gotta love'm! After church, we did do an adoption group thing...I'll add pics later...
We went out for pizza...they came to our table telling us that we've been waiting too long on our order due to one of their ovens breaking down and gave us our entire meal free, PLUS added bread stix and cinnamon stix! Happy Anniversary!

Weight Watchers was put on hold....and I paid for it...7 lbs! I'll get back on track soon! I tried to day, but FREE pizza...couldn't beat that deal! I didn't really eat too much...And we went for a LONG walk! Keep me in your prayers, though, for strength!
