Back to Work

After working only two days of the last 15 I am back to work tomorrow. The kids are back to school as well. The time off was great and now it's time to get back to business. I enjoyed the family time but I'm also looking forward to working again (...kind of). The kids are at the point where they are looking for arguments and fights with one another. Bryce seems to be in the middle of it all. Poor kid just doesn't know when to lay off.

Basketball Season Ends

The latest basketball season for Bryce has come to a close. Counting last season I have a coaching record of 4 and 10. Most important though I got to spend a lot of quality time with Bryce. Riding to and from practices was great. I got to hear all about what Bryce has going on in his mind. The time will come when Bryce doesn't want to talk much to me about what he thinks. Hopefully that is not for a long time but I feel blessed to have such an awesome kid who is not afraid to talk to his dad.

Who's the Idiot

Bryce was looking at our March Madness bracket that we are in from my work last night. There are 21 entries. He asked, "Who's the idiot who picked Purdue? What was he thinking?"

I would like to know the same thing. What was that guy thinking? Except my bracket is in 16th place so I don't have room to talk.

Bryce Feels Better Now

The other day Bryce was having trouble going to the bathroom. He kept going in to sit down and would come out later saying that his poop wasn't done cooking yet. By the end of the day he was feeling constipated and just not feeling good at all.

Finally right before he went to bed he was able to go to the bathroom and take care of business. When he came back to the front room he let everyone know that he was able to relieve himself in the toilet.

Jen said, "Good, do you fell better now?"

Bryce replied, "Yep! And my butt feels better too!"

All YOU Can Eat

We went to CiCi's pizza on Saturday. On the way home Mikayla groaned from the back seat.

"I ate all I could eat! And that's what CiCi's is. An ALL YOU CAN EAT Buffet."

Garage Sale

Jen asked Bryce and Mikayla to go into their rooms and find toys they don't play with anymore to sell in a garage sale next week. Bryce came out a little later with a box full of toys he's outgrown and doesn't play with anymore. A long time later Mikayla came out with her box. It contained a clothes hanger and two happy meal toys.

Way to get rid of your junk Mikayla!!!

3rd Grade Election 2008

Here are the results from the 3rd Grade Election at Mikayla's school:

Barack Obama - 50 Votes
John McCain - 49 Votes
Bob Barr - 4 Votes
Hello Kitty - 1 Vote

Mikayla did awesome on her speech. Too bad they didn't vote on who did the best on it because it wasn't even close. Mikayla was by far the best.

I like that Hello Kitty got a vote. Whoever did that should get a cookie.
