Stephen's day at school

To contact us Click HERE
It was their fall festival at school.  I was able to go and stay all morning before the festival!!

me and my sweet boy!

There are 21 kids in their class.  His teacher told the kids to sit down and Stephen and Mary were the only ones who listened!


They sang a scary halloween song and they had to slap their legs to make like they were running!

Just a few short weeks ago they had Johnny Appleseed day.  They all took seed and tried to make it grow.  Stephens never did sprout.

They passed around one that did sprout

and the one that really really sprouted!!


They got in a line to do a costume parade.  Stephen was the only one doing what was told.  Make a bubble and put a finger on it.

Their was one other girl that put a bubble in it, but not for long and Stephen was the only one with a finger on it!



We saw Cooper!

and Matt!!!

After the parade we played Mr. Potato head!

Stephen left with Bart as soon as he found out Bart drove the dump truck!  It was a fun day with our little one!

Not like I don't have a billion other things to do or a night I want to stay home or some free weekends, but Jackson wanted to sign up for wrestling.  So what did mama do???  Yep you guessed it!  Signed him up for wrestling.  It all happened on Monday October 29th.  Yep just 2 shorts days after our football season ended.  I took Jackson solo cause Stephen wanted to stay with Aunt Holly Grace.  (he is obsessed with her!!)  So Jackson and I headed there and we saw a 5 year old boy there with his dad.  I just mentioned it for crazy sakes how old you had to be to wrestle.  They coach said 4.  4 years old.  I am still in shock??  So what did Jackson do?  He came home and asked Stephen if he wanted to wrestle.  Originally I was going to see if there were any karate classes for Stephen at the same time as Jackson did wrestling, but now I can take them both together and its pretty awesome!!!  Here are some pictures of their first practice!!
They ran for 15 minutes.  I am not talking jogging I am talking run run run!!  After running they had other warm ups to do.  They both stayed in line patiently waiting for instructions.

Run to each line and touch it, then run back and then run to the next line.  There were 4 lines.
Next run to each line and do 5 push ups.
Next run to each line and do sit ups.

Bear crawl all the way down.


Don't know what this is called, but they did it all the way back after bear crawls!

After all that conditioning they went to the room with the mats.  This sign hangs in the room.

They sat in a circle for a few minutes and went over some things.

They did more stretching.

and more!

Then they told you to do this!  Not really!!  The only things that were supposed to touch was your head and feet.  No shoulders, back or butt.

Then this!
Stephen stopped really quick and stayed with me the rest of the time.  I do have a cute video of them doing up downs I will try to up load to youtube.  Stephen cried the WHOLE way home and most of the time before bed.  He said he didn't want to go back, he didn't like running, he was a mess.  BUT he did go to practice Tuesday night and did great!!

Thanksgiving Race and Jackson's PERFECT light .000

I gave Jackson's dad my Thanksgiving and he gave me his weekend.  Jackson has been wanting to go to Montgomery Motorsports to race ever since he started racing.  We have several friends that go to the Thanksgiving race and a few that race there normal race days.  It didn't disappoint.  It was a super fun laid back track.  It was a SEJRA race and those races are fun in it self!

It didn't start off to great.  We blew a tire at spaghetti junction.  Thankfully my inlaws followed us down there and were behind us.  Bart and Farrell changed it pretty fast!! 

I don't know why I take pictures of his dial in???















In between time trials and runs the kids had a ball playing.
Jackson got a PERFECT light while there!  He lost the round itself, but we were super proud of the .000 light.  His first one ever!  Thank God for buy backs cause he was actually able to win a few rounds each night! 



Stephen wanted to display he was proud of his Skelton racin shirt so he wore it with the Skelton on the front!!


After the race Saturday Bart took all the weight out of his car.  Since Jackson is now 10 he is able to run his car 8.90 instead of the 12.90.  He took all the weight out and he only went like 11.40???  The wind and weather plays so much in this racing that is was soooo slow.

Here's a video of him running his car.  
Stephen had been SOOOO sick from the Tuesday before Thanksgiving and this was Saturday night.  His fever finally broke sometime in the night and he had a nasty fever blister.

Didn't want to wear his frog hat anymore and his hair looked like this!

Oh that face gets me every time!!

Didn't want a pic with his mom!
