Labor Day Weekend, what can I say! I'm so tired!

Gosh, I've been trying to recover all day! To start as you already know Ashlee & Gordon can up! We had a lot of fun at Canton. Not only do I need to recover but so does my pocket book. Then my friends Brandi, Crystal, Shauna, and Shelly came to see me and also Gary Allen...can you say gorgeous! I just love him! I have to say thanks to all my girls it meant so much to me that they wanted to come see us so soon. We had a lot of fun we stayed up until 3:00 in the morning. While I thought George and Gordon would have a quiet night at home ...was I surprised. George and Gordon made friends with the neighbors. They were in our garage drinking some beer when we got home well they didn't shut down till 4:00 in the morning. I'm glad they made friends.

I've got to tell you about Koby! We made him take 2nd grade over for those who don't know. We had so much drama with the move that we thought it would be best to let him have a whole year at the same school. Well it seems to be the best thing we have ever done. I was really worried at first. Koby is a little small for his age and he made mostly B's and a couple of A's last year on his report cards. We really have to study to make an A. This year of course it's only been a week but he made 104 on his spelling test and all 100 on his math. Now this is a repeat so he should. But what I am most happy for is that his confidence is sky high! He has also made friends with a little boy next door they are both in 2nd grade they ride the bus together and they play extremely well together. He rides his bike a bunch and is playing outside a lot! So things are great with him.

We love our house and I'm just trying to get it put together. Our garage is filled with tubs and boxes. Oh, my mom gave me her rainbow vacuum ...Mom I love it thanks a bunch it works great. We miss everybody terribly! Hopefully the home sickness will where off soon. George and I are making friends so that helps. But, nothing is like family and our old friends. Miss you bunches!
