golf buddies

G-man and his long-time (since birth!) buddy who is also taking golf lessons.

G-man has been thoroughly enjoying golf lessons this fall. Honestly, there are days when he goes to golf and I'm SO WISHING *I* could have an afternoon of golf, myself!! The weather is just absolutely magnificant these days and I'm so jealous of G-man getting to spend 2 hours on a golf course on a gorgous fall day...what fun!!

the cereal sneak

We all love granola...preferably the low-fat variety since it's pretty loaded with calories and sugar...not to mention it's fairly expensive (for cereal). Ms. P came running upstairs today, voice quivering and pretty upset, because she needed my help in cleaning something up. Unsure of what I was in for, I followed her to the kitchen...and noticed what looked like an aerial view of a granola hurricane (on a small scale, of course) spread out on part of our kitchen floor. She had tried to get it back into her paper cup, but as you can imagine, granola is a bit like picking up sand off of hardwood. We got as much up as we could with our hands, and then resorted to the Dyson (love that machine!). Here are some pictures...

Granola hurricane...

Mr. Dyson to the rescue...look at all that cereal in there (on top of the dust and dirt from vacuuming last weekend - but nevermind that)!

The happy muncher, just satisfied with having the entire container of granola to herself, while I vacuumed she chowed down...

into the swing of things...

HE DID NOT WANT HIS PICTURE TAKEN ON THIS DAY...I'LL GET A BETTER ONE SOON! :)
MS P *LOVES* PRESCHOOL!

"Put on your thinking cap", now what do all of these things mean?

carpooling
packing lunches
hand sanitizer
water bottles
waking up EARLY
homework

I'd say fall is in full-swing! I'm into a "groove" so to speak...and the kids aren't far behind. I love Fall! It's just the best of all seasons...not too cold...yet not as blazingly hot as summer...still have lots of sunshine...the foliage outside is still beautiful...and having a routine once again after a long summer. As busy as we all may or may not be...no matter what grade level your kids are at...I'm just enjoying soaking it all up and enjoying this time...

love these commercials

So - can I just tell you how much I like the new Swiffer commercials? They CRACK ME UP!! I'm not sure why, exactly...but I think they are hilarious. I added the song from these commercials to my blog playlist...I know it's tacky...but I'm in need of some light humor these days!! :)
There are quite a few out (I think), but this one is my favorite one right now:
*love the towel drop at the very end...




I know this was a silly, meaningless post, but I'm working on birthday party goody bags and watching HGTV...and these Swiffer commercials just keep making me laugh. Just had to share.

I think I need a vacation

I have not posted in a while...to say it's been a crazy week would be an understatement!

Ms. K started school 2 weeks ago

G-man started school last week

Ms. P starts school this week

Ms. K started soccer last week

G-man started soccer this week

Ms. P started dance last week

G-man starts golf this week

Ms. K starts gymnastics this week

I am very much looking forward to the week of the 15th where this is nothing "new" starting up. I feel like I've filled out so many registration forms, and bought so many uniform-type clothing lately...can we stop the madness?! It's all fun and good...and we're having a ball and thoroughly enjoying all the fun that Fall brings. Our family has had many changes this summer and fall. I think I need a week in Hawaii or something! Oh wait! I *DO* get a week in Hawaii!! It's coming up soon...aaahhh...it's MUCH NEEDED and much anticipated!
