What's New...

...I don't even know where to start!

Cash is playing soccer this year, poor guy has been waiting for 3 years to play and when it is finally time we can't catch a break with the weather.  Due to the rainy weekends he has been able to have 1 practice and 1 game -- and the season is half way over.

Jasmine has been a mess lately.  This year she is in 1st grade and did GREAT the first semester.  Since then it has been downhill.  The frustrating part is that she can do the work, she just spends too much time goofing off to get it done. ~sigh~ please say a prayer for her in those regards...thank you very much!

Our summer calendar is already filling up and I am so excited.  We have a couple of camping trips planned, a trip to Houston, swim lessons, VBS, camp, family reunions...I could go on.

And lastly, my new favorite thing to do, FREE shopping!  At least that is what I call it.  I have a coupon binder now and watch the sales and get tons and tons of stuff for FREE...no lie.  Last weekend I went to Kroger and got 4 boxes of Pillsbury brownie mix, 4 packages of Quaker snacks, 4 suave deodorants, 4 packages of angel soft toilet paper, 4 packages of McCormick's grill mates seasonings...all for FREE.  I also got quite a bit of other products for practically nothing like caprisuns, steam-fresh veggies and Lawry's marinades.  I am having so much fun with this!!

Through The Eyes of a 6 Yr Old

Below are the first half to some well known sayings....I asked Jasmine to complete the saying and got some pretty interesting answers:

Strike while the...ball is coming

It's always darkest before...the sun is out

Never underestimate the power of...God

You can lead a horse to water but...you can't lead it to food

Don't bite the hand that....the ant is biting

No news is...no clues

You can't teach an old dog new...tricks

If you lie down with dogs, you'll...itch

Love all, trust...God

An idle mind is...doing nothing

Where there's smoke there's...fire

Happy the bride who...kisses the husband

A penny saved is...one cent

Two's company, three's...more

Laugh and the whole world laughs with you, cry and...you are sad

There are none so blind as...a bat

Children should be seen and not...complaining

When the blind lead the blind....there is something to find

Better late than...early
