I asked him over the summer if he could just go ahead and put three hard drives in my computer.
He said, I couldn't fill up that much space.
He was wrong.

Extreme Basketball
This is what happens when you have about an hour of sun light. A quick game of extreme basketball.
Look at my baby, he made this shot.
Gotta love the look on Anthony's face.
Below is what happens when Steve gets involved in the game. Please excuse my oldest and his lack of clothing sense. Ummmm, Anthony, can you please pull up your pants.
Steve made the shot.
The child needs a hair cut.

Wild Turkey
I forgot to post a picture of the wild turkey. Here he is all puffed up and talking to Steve.
It's the best of the pictures.

Fun Day
I tried and tried for a new header picture, but it just didn't work out. It may be spring but no one has let mother nature know. Everything was very drab and dull. So I just pulled a picture from the past. I wish our trees had blooms.
So instead I took pictures of wild turkeys. They didn't come out. Not because of camera settings but because I was laughing to hard. The male turkeys get all puffy feathers(scientific term) when the females are around. Well, they were puffy feathers when we started to take pictures but stopped. Steve then decided to cackle like a turkey. And the stupid things cackled back and got all puffy. It was the funnest thing. I wish I had it on video.
Steve wanted to me to take pictures of the llamas or mamas and Jason used to say.
They were grazing in the pasture when we pulled up and only two stopped to watch me. That was until I started to talk to them. Then they all started walking toward me. I asked Steve, "Do llamas attack." No, but they do spit, so I only got so close.
Some like to pose. This one cracked me up. He clearly wanted his picture taken.
He even smiled for me.
Show me your smile.
It was just good to get out today and get some fresh air. I hope the sunshine stays around for a couple of days.

Sunshine
There hasn't been any. Except for a couple of days ago. I grabbed my camera and off to the park to get some pics. Camera wasn't set to the right settings and all my pictures came out way over exposed. Made me mad so I just deleted them.
Any way the point to all of this, I still haven't changed my header and it is really starting to bug me. While there isn't much sun today and it is a very very cold wind, I am going to give it yet another try.
Until then, here is a picture of my favorite daughter at my favorite place. She is sitting on a rock that I spent so many summers as a kid playing on. Behind it is a little cave were we hid as kids and waited until someone would go into the bathroom right below. Then we would through rocks on the roof. Back in the days when our parents had no idea where we were or what we were up to. Good Times.

New Header
I am not going to rest today until I have a new picture for my header. I am tired of looking at the snow.

The School Week is Over
It is for the kid I am homeschooling. It's our first week back from Spring break and it was a hard long week. One of the advantages to homeschooling is you can set your own schedule. Since I have two kids in the public schools, I fit Jasons schedule to theirs. Which is nice, it keeps me on track. But sometimes it can be a pain.
About a month ago we had a week where everyone was sick. I just decided it would be easier if Jason had the week off. Then there was the week that best friend Joey moved. The boys made a very heart wrenching plea for Jason to have that week off. I caved.
If you have read some of my previous post's you would know how I feel about schedules. They rule my life. For those of you keeping track: If I want to finish Jason's school year at the same time the older two finish, I am two weeks behind.
I gave Jason the choice. Give up Spring break and work one week into summer vacation or give up our Fridays off for the rest of the year. He choose the Friday option. I told him that if we work really hard, we will be completely caught up by mid May. He choose to work even harder and got an amazing amount of work done this week. At this rate we will be caught up by the end of April. Plus, he told me he would choose to pay attention as well. What a deal!!!!
I also received a note home from his extra reading teacher. He has jumped up yet another reading level. She is hoping we have him at grade level by the end of this year. I can't tell you how happy we are with that news.
There is lots going on here and I will post more later. I am off to the park and enjoy the sun while it lasts.
