mom.....LOOK at my BIG bandaids!

can you tell what these are? Anney came to me earlier today and said...."mom, look at my big bandaids!" This kid is obsessed with bandaids...she loves them. Somehow she was under the bathroom sink and found some pantyliners and thought they would make great bandaids! I cracked up laughing and had to take a picture! We love our little Anney!

No More Cub Scouts!

These pictures were taken at Travis' last pack meeting as a Cub Scout.....He is 11 years old now and officially a Boy Scout! He is so excited and is looking forward to his next adventures. He has Incredible leaders that he loves and they are so motivated and he has done so well already. Good Job Travis.....mom and dad are proud of you and all your accomplishments as a cub Scout. We are excited to help and support you on the path to your Eagle! We love you!

Less then 100 days!

Everytime I get on my blog I watch the little countdown to the right of my blog that tells me how many days until my due date.....It's always seemed so far away until I realized that we have less then 100 days now! These next few months are so crazy with all the holidays as it is, I'm sure it's going to FLY!

Things are still going great with this pregnancy. I can't believe how great I feel and how much energy I still have. I know it won't be this way until the end, but I will continue to enjoy it while it lasts.

We still don't have a name picked out, I really like the "EE" or "EY" at the end of a name for a little girl, so I think i'll start focusing on that! I'll take any suggestions....

Megan suggests about 10 names a day.....EVERY girl name in her class or any girl she meets, etc. Some of them are quite interesting, and some are quite common, and some are just plain hilarious cause she makes half of them up!

If anyone has any name suggestions.....send them this way!

Travis and Taylor want to be in charge!

Travis and taylor are wanting to be elected as student council officers of their school. Travis wants to be the President and Taylor wants to be the Treasurer. Last night we wrote up a little paragraph on why they would make good candidates for their job and we included a picture! The general election is next week and then the primary election will be the week after. Here is what they said......(both of them wrote the majority of this themselves....I had to actually cut some of it out cause not everything would fit on their papers they were given.

This was Travis'

I feel you should vote for me as your President because I feel like I am qualified to be the best president ever! I am a natural born leader because I am the oldest of 5 kids in my family, and I have many responsibilities at home caring for my younger siblings. I also feel that you can depend on me for anything, and you need that in a president. If you ever need anything from me, I will do my best to have it ready as soon as possible. I am a great people person; I can get along with ANYONE so I know I can relate to everyone in our school. I have been involved as a student council class representative and I always made sure my class was aware of what was going on, and I would do the same for the school.

I am actively involved in orchestra, mustang fiddling and video club at Madison. In my spare time I love to go to the sand dunes, play sports, attend scouts, hang out with friends and cousins and just have fun!

Please vote for Travis Ferrin as President and I promise you will not be disappointed!


This Was Taylor's


You should vote for me because I would be a very responsible Treasurer. For example, do you like the pencil machine? If you didn’t have a responsible and dependable treasurer, you wouldn’t have any pencils! Another reason you should vote for me is I am a very good at Math and I am also a straight A student. I also work very well with other students and I love to be around other people.

In my spare time I love to ride quads, dive, swim, shop and hang out with friends and my family.


I promise I will be the best Treasurer. Please VOTE Taylor Ferrin for Treasurer and you will have the best school year ever!
