i wish i blogged more

there is no way to remember all the little things that i immediately think "i need to blog that!" when you blog as often (meaning not very) as i do. i blame it solely on the need for a laptop. you listening santa?? so school has started, kids are doing great and loving their teachers. my class is PRESH and i am so thankful. we got 2 weeks under our belts and it was time for our annual labor day "ribber" trip. only the trip fell apart about a week before we were going. so, in an excellent change of plans we decided to go to san antonio to stay with the blakes and what a fantastic choice that was! i, of course, always love my 'e' time, andy and steve watched football and did man things, and the kids played...perfection. we even spent one night at the jw marriott for the fun pool. it was relaxing and fun and just what we needed.

then we returned to reality...i came down with bronchitis which i have never had before. awful. horrible. would rather have strep. got a steroid shot, major meds and couch syrup that makes me see things, but i need to rest more. not feeling great at all. however, mom duty calls and there was NO WAY this mama was going to miss h's first soccer game or j's first football game.
