smarty pants

No, really.... He is!! My son, who is 11 for a few more weeks, is so smart!! I am so beyond proud of him!

He did very well all through elementary school and I'm not gonna lie...i was nervous about him going to middle school this year!! You know, when they are lil.... You can be on top of everything they do! The teacher would communicate with you on a daily basis. But, not in middle school! It's all up to him now. But, I have to say.... He has surprised me so far this year.
He hasn't never been the athletic type like his older brother. He is a gamer and a book worm. But, this year he has really taken on alot. I was worried, but, he has exceled like always!! He has all AP classes.
He wanted to take band ✔

Yes... He chose the tuba lol
He mastered his locker ✔

He got in with the football team.....(water boy until spring cause 6th grade can't play)✔

He has blossomed into this social butterfly ✔

Homecoming 2014
And he is on the academic team!! Their first match they won 2 outta 3 matches and his last match they won all the matches!!

And with all this going on.... He still managed all As and two Bs on his report card!! Yeah, I'm a proud momma!
What have your lil ones done that make you proud??

lazy FHE

Monday nights......i love them!! That's when we do FHE(family home evening)
Ever since my youngest started middle school this year, we seem to be so busy! From academic team meets, football, 4-h, regular school days, church activities, and his"gaming" I really feel like I don't get to be with my baby near as much as I used to!! *tear*
So, Monday nights is really like my security blanket. I'm gonna hold on to these for as long as I can!! Not only do we get to disconnect from the outside world and spend time together, but, it's also a time of learning and spiritual growth as a family.

Don't get me wrong, I love ❤ getting lessons together and making fun treats or baking with my son.... But, I am human and some days I'm really wore out (I know, not an excuse) but, my daughter and grandson have been up for two weeks now... So, we ended up not having a lesson 😢 BUT...

Sloppy Joe's

Gotham

And family 👪 time and love...... Sounds like a pretty good FHE to me!! What did ya'll do for FHE? Or if not, what was for dinner? How was your lil ones day?
Muahs!

my sons last game as a junior

That's my baby!! He had been playing football 🏈 his whole life and tonight... His last game as a junior in high school.
I'm really proud of him. I know he is going to do great in the years to come.

Tonight was an interesting game. My old high school vs his. Well.... My old high school came in undefeated and left undefeated, but, it wasn't without a fight. Our boys gave them a run for their money 💵 I think they ended the season strong. The game flip flopped the whole time, but, in the end(thanks to a ton of bs calls by the refs) we lost. Final score was 48-38

I can't wait to see what his future holds for him!

What did yall do today??

good night, sleep tight

Well, day 1 of blogging is done. Yall, please be patient with me as I learn blogging etiquette......heehee
Today my friend came by. She was wanting me to do her nails. Yes, I'm one of those "nail art junkies" I have never done acrylic, but I love doing nail art. She wanted something fun for Halloween..

Last night I did my own for Halloween. You see, I'm an "American horror story" fan..... That's one of my fav shows..... So, my nails were done for "freakshow"

Tonight we decided to grab some church's chicken 🍗 since we had leftover sides

This is my baby y'all. Almost grown. He will be 12 in December

Good night y'all
