Grocery Bill

How much do you pay per week or month? I came across this neat website and wanted to share! It's really neat. Spend Smart Eat Smart...Love the moto! Here is our estimate: estimated $179.32 per week for your householdestimated $776.99 per month for your household. I am not 100% sure if that's right, but I will double check this week. I really never pay attention to how much we spend at the store. I guess I really need to! I wish I could be that crazy person that walks in with all of their coupons and ads. I seen one lady stock up and only spen $50 on her total of $300 bill. WOW.....

Weekend

As I posted on Friday Ricky and I had another great kid free weekend. We had a lot of fun at our deer lease. We checked out where our new deer lease is going to be. I am super excited to start making memories with our girls as they learn how to hunt. Meredith was 3 years old when we started taking her deer hunting. Its going to be a blast to see Emma and Emily in the stands this November. After checking out our new lease, we were off to Robin and Travis's house, our new friends. They are awesome. They will do anything for you.....Very nice people. They live on 30 plus acres and live in a metal home. Everytime I am there I just really enjoy there place. When sitting in their living room they have an awesome view of their pine trees and man made pond! They had a crawlfish boil and it was yummy!!! Here are the pics that I took. Hope you enjoy!

Ricky and I are heading out to our deer lease to check on things and make sure everything is okay! We are having a KID FREE weekend! I am very lucky to have a mom that loves her grandkids and enjoys keeping them for us. Also, a big thank you for my sis in-law for keeping them too. She is the best!!! The weather is suppose to pick up East. Our lease is in Atlanta, NE Texas. They are saying strong storms tonight and cold and windy tomorrow and sunny and warm on Sunday.....Gotta love it :) Again, I hope you all have a wonderful weekend.

Joans Brothers

The one to the far right is her favorite: Joe Jonas!!

The Jonas Brothers have announced that they are doing a world tour. The day we found out my brother called us telling us to watch the 4:00 news. Meredith rushed upstairs to turn the game run t.v. on and moments later, I hear a scream! She learned the great news....with great joy she ran down staris and said, "OMG, we have to buy the tickets." I told her that I had to find out all the details. I went on Ticketmaster and nothing. Just a few weeks ago they were posting about the pre-sale. I was freaking out....Pre-Sale? What am I going to do? So last night a great friend of mine allowed me to use her early per-sale code. I was very thankful!!! Finally the sale begins, I was panicking. LOL I typed in the code, added how many tickets, clicked next and a little tab popped up. Oh no.....per sale code doesn't work. Now what? So I re-do everything. Clicked next and nothing. So now I am 20 minutes in and still no tickets. So I did it again, took a deep breath and it worked. Yay, I bought two tickets. Seats are okay, but hey at least we get to go! She has no idea that I was going to buy them. Stay tune for the upcoming pics of her flipping out over The Jonas Brothers!!! I am super excited...this will be her first concert....I can't wait :)

Brag Time.....

As many of you know that my older brother Ricky has a son name Michael, my loving nephew He is 9 years old and in the third grade. My brother called me to tell me that Mikey passed the TAKS. You know that annoying test they have to take to pass on. Well it's nothing like when we were in school. Which it was called the TAAS. Anyways....in 3rd grade in the loving State of Texas you have to pass the Reading to move on to 4th grade. And he PASSED!!! He was so stressed out and worried that he wasn't going to be able to move on to 4th grade. How crazy is that for 8-9 year olds to worry about passing a test to move on. Just one test will determine that....CRAZY!! My first year to teach for in 2004 I had to help the struggling students with the TAKS. I had one student walk into class crying and was rushed to the nurses office because she was having a panic attack. Now how crazy is that. She was an A-B student all year long and couldn't pass the TAKS because she couldn't pass the test. I am hoping one day this test will be gone forever. A child should never have to worry about passing one test! Just crazy!!! I can see taking it in high school, but not in elemantry school. Okay, off of my band wagon! LOL

CONGRATULATIONS TO MY WONDERFUL NEPHEW...WE LOVE YOU MIKEY :)

****How do I post pics the right way???****

Emma Rose moment...........

Something so sweet happen to day with Emma. As we woke up this morning to take Mere to school I noticed that Emma was very sleepy and quite. Not like her at all.....So we arrived back home after dropping Mere off at school and came back into the house to eat. After eating and cleaning our mess, Emma was walking around the kitchen table looking down. I asked, "Emma are you okay?" She looked up at me and shouted...."I WANT MY DADDY!" I then told her that he was at work, but would be home soon. Two hours went by and still noticed she just wasn't herself. I then asked her again, "Emma, what's wrong?" She then yells as loud as she can, I WANT MY DADDY!!! It was so sweet. Here is the pic of her doing it. Just caught her in time to take a pic. I am 27 years old and I still need my daddy. It just brought goose bumps to me. I hope they still need him at the age that I am....Daddy's are the best :) But when I am sick I want my MAMA!!! LOL
