Where the Wild Things Are!

This is a cool little movie made by Ian!!! It is all three boys doing front flips one right after the other! Brody is soooooooooooo proud that he learned how to land it on his feet! That was his big deal yesterday! He talked about it alllllll day and then allll this morning!

Yeah Spring!!!

Today I finished this cute project I found on one of my creative blogs! It was so fun and brightens up the room! I had to share.

"Young at Art"

Pre-performance pix! This year Porter and Preston went allllll out! They sang a Twisted sister song (see below) and then Porter was involved in the grand finale as all the 6th graders do a large performance every year!!!!! My boys were awesome and everything thought so as well!!! They got all the parents singing along and clapping. You could tell who grew up in the 80's! Fun night! A very fun night!

"We're not gonna take it" by Twisted Sister!

Preston doing his air guitar things on the floor! Crazy boy!!

They brought the house down though! They got the crowd clapping and singing along! It was so funny. It was one of those weird moments where you are so proud (but a little nervous because it was such a crazy song) they are great little entertainers! We got glue gel for their hair and totally spiked it up high!!! They were completely in their element!!!!!

The 6th grade performance......they did a medley from Hairspray. Porter wasn't tooo excited but he did it with a great attitude!!!!

I'm sorry but he is just a little rocker at heart!

Pinewood Derby Night!!!!

Preston's car (yes you are right) is the black one! :)

He's a little doubtful!

Most the kids were waiting on the side of the track or at the end. Here are some of my kids waiting for the cars! It was a fun night! Preston won a few races. It was funny though some of us mom's were talking and this was their last Pinewood Derby. I have 5 more!!!! Wow! I told Ian next year let's just by one off E-bay! A lot less stress in making these things! But in the end it is a good experience! Tonight was all about Preston and that was nice for him!!! I sure love him!

His pinewood derby award was "the web"

Illness update!!!

So dear fellow bloggers, I know you have been on the edge of your seat wondering about my health! He He!!!! I still have been having problems with my right ear (pain, hearing etc.) So Today I went to an ENT and he said that I still have some blisters on my ear drum and my nerve is swollen and damaged and I had a hearing test and that indicated I have some hearing loss. The doc was not too worried about that. He said that will probably come back. So he sent me home with a high dose of Prednisone (sp) and an appointment in 7 days!!!!!!!!

Here is Porter and his basketball team! It was his first year playing! I think he learned a lot and does love the sport! Cory you did such a great job coaching! Thank you soooooooooo much!

Update!!

As I was sleeping last night I remembered I forgot to mention a few things. Those first few days I was sick it was the weekend......Friday-Sunday. I was bad, fever and everything. My boys were amazing. Ian was gone and they knew their mom was not doing to well. (well I don't think Brody was tuned in)! But the fact that my kids did not complain once. Their dad was gone and it was a weekend and they were stuck at home!!! I really gained a greater appreciation for my kids. They are great kids!! I love you boys! Ian really has been great too!!!! He has brought work home and left early and got my Rx's!!!! Ian has been so good to keep the kids entertained. He took them to a movie this afternoon. Thank you! I am a little better today! I only slept one hour today! Yesterday during the day I slept like 5 hours. So I think that is a positive direction. Don't you love blogging! :)

What a week!

I have had the worst week! This past Friday I came down with a very sore throat and a bad cold so I knew when I woke up on Saturday that I for sure had strep and a sinus infection. I called my Doc and he actually made a house call and told me yes...here is your RX! So with all my energy that I had I went to go fill in. Buy Sat. night it gone to my ear and was up all night in pain etc etc. So I called Doc the next morning and he said the Rx should cover it. By Mon. I was worse so he gave me a heavier RX and said that I had an ear infection and that there were blisters on my ear drum and one had burst. Went again the the pharmacy...Today Thursday I was still not better. In tears I walked back to my Doc and said I can't take it anymore..something else is wrong. No improvements. So we came to look at my ear and noticed some blisters on the outside of my ear. He looked inside and ran outside to his books. I know exactly what is wrong......."why didn't I catch this before?" I have Ramsay Hunt Syndrome. YEAH for me! It is like shingles in the ear. It is a virus that attacks the nerves in your ear. It involved ringing of the ear (sometimes intense), outside blisters, extreme tiredness, dizziness,numbing on the outside of face and a lot of pain! So It is treated with a viral RX that cost $175. I am on strick rest and should be better by the end of the weekend!!!!! We shall see! If I do not get better I am off to the ENT Dr. I sound like a soap opera don't I!!!! So Off To bed I go!
