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!

Steve DIDN'T Accept A New Job!

Can you believe he decided to turn it down?
He had a list of reasons why not to take it....
The main one was that they didn't commit to which shift he'd be on...in other words, he could have been stuck on 2nd shift and we'd never ever see him!
So, whether it was a good choice or not...I just don't know....we'll find out, I guess.....

Steve Accepted A New Job!

He accepted a new job at R. R. Donnelly's Printing in Mattoon and he'll be starting May 19th!

He'll still be on 3rd shift, but he moves to salary pay and he'll be in an air conditioned office programing PLCs....No more uniform! Only a dollar pay-cut for now, but he has a higher max-out!

He sounds excited...

I think...
He's nervous about starting something new and not having the seniority!
