Which one, which one?

I just finished my book club book, 'Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society' I really liked it! But now which one do I pick? I have four other books to read. It is a hard choice if only I had three days to read, oh wait we have a three day weekend coming (well minus Sunday)!

Move over Jessica

I ask Josh everyday this week, after school, who he played with. Hannah, is always his reply. I guess he likes to sit by her and play with her during recess. So watch out (or your probably thinking "thank goodness!") Jessica, he says he loves her!

Discovery

I discovered something today. I love to grocery shop (as long as it is only with one happy child, no children is bliss). I love trying to get the deal. I like walking the aisles everything organized and stocked. I like searching through the marked down items and seeing if I have a coupon to make it even cheaper. I love it when there are samples and I discover something wonderfully new and exciting. I love to prepare and get ready to go, with my list and coupons and ads in my binder. I like the feeling of HA I get that for FREE, or hey, toilet paper you weren't advertised marked down, but I have a coupon and now your under a buck! I love to hear the total and hand over that stack of coupons, like yeah, that's right, take off another 48 percent! I want to beat the store. I want to have my savings higher than my bill. Does it take time? OH YEAH! Is it worth it to me? DEFINITELY. I want to chant as I go out the door, "I'm saving money, I'm saving money". This is not for the faint heart, or the shopper that needs to get-in and get-out, but you know what I like the hunt! I can't wait to have my own pantry and fill it. AHH-Ha-Ha-Ha

My harvest

Aren't they cute! To bad I didn't water faithfully. The tomatoes are bitter and the potatoes are small. But I harvested them, YEAH!

First Day of School

Not the best pictures but the only ones I have. He barely wanted to wave good-bye.


Our (hopefully) new backyard!



This will be our new backyard if all continues on the right road. We will close between September 15 and the 25th. I can't wait for my kids to have room to romp!



I'm learning

This week we were suppose to go to the Splash Pad. I told Holly (who is jealous that Josh gets to go to school and she doesn't) we were going and she was so excited. When we left to take Josh to school it was raining! But I have learned that just because there is rain in one place in Knoxville it doesn't mean it will be raining in another. So off to the Splash Pad we went, and I am glad we did. It was nice weather and Holly loved it! I AM LEARNING!
