What's New?

Just a quick update...today is Todd's Birthday - Happy Birthday!! We love you. He's getting to spend all day by himself mowing 2 stores. That's never happened before, but this time of year we're short staffed and it just so happened that the guys we usually use this time of year were not available today...soooo, Todd gets to make all the money himself today without any payroll! That's the silver lining.

I'm homeschooling Savannah 1st grade and Caleb K4 this year. They both have a positive attitude about it and are usually ready to start as soon as they get up - before I've had my coffee. Isaac likes to sit with them and scribble with crayons on paper. Keegan is attending Community Baptist Christian School for the 3rd grade and he is loving being back at school. It'll work out better for his personality to be at school than at home.

Keegan and Savannah just spent most of their money buying 2 Red Eared Slider turtles and the goodies that you have to buy with them. We told them that whenever the goldfish die they can use the aquarium for turtles. One died last week and after Todd cleaned out the tank he filled it up for the other one and left it outside because the fish could "use some sun." I don't know if it was on purpose, but Savannah was pretty upset the next day when the water "was boiling" from the warm weather we had (in her words) and the other fish was dead. It didn't take too long for her to get over it because she was pretty excited about getting turtles. Savannah named hers Michaelangelo and Keegan's is Donatello after the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles."

I actually get to fly to Houston, Tx on Sept 22 for a quick weekend business trip for lia sophia. I'm helping a recruit get started. Pray that it'll all be worth it.

Gotta go and do payroll for Green Grass....

Yes, I'm busy, but it's all good.

Love, Stacey
