Happy Halloween!

Pirate JEB says.....AHOY ye mateys!!

Captain JEB says...."Swab the deck mates!"

Grandma Sue sent him the Frankenstein bag

with his name on it....too cute, huh?

He was thrilled with his costume.....in fact, he's

wearing it now.....still. I may not get it off of him

today!

Daddy helping the little pirate get ready to sail !

The artist at work!!

Everyone have a safe and happy day!!! Don't eat too much candy!!!

Wednesday....

Well, it's Wednesday and it's rainy and Jn isn't here.....on his way to see his old team play in the STATE tourney. He'll have a great time.

JEB was sick yesterday.....threw up in the middle of the night and ran a fever all morning. He didn't act sick at all during the day. Thank goodness. So, we stayed home today to make sure fever is gone and all is well. Back to school tomorrow!

All else is well. Going to get his little costume today.....I'm thinking PIRATE JEB will do the trick! There are some elderly people who live in our neighborhood and we can go trick-or-treating at their houses on SAT. night. This will be his 1st official trick-or-treating. We'll see how it goes!!! I will take some pics and see how they turn out!

wow....it's FRIDAY, already!

Can't believe how FAST this week went.......well, ok - so I only had three days of school because of FALL BREAK, but that's ok.

I enjoyed it and it was great to know when we went to school on Wed., that in two days we'd get the weekend. BUT we have our school's annual fundraiser auction to go to on Saturday, so technically, we have to work a little bit on Saturday. We'll miss our BAMA game, but that's why GOD made DVR's, huh??

Not much tonight.......I'm super tired and having a hard time keeping my eyes open! So, I'm off to put the child to bed and probably fall asleep in my chair watching tv. Jn is at the football game, so he'll be home later!!

OH MY GOODNESS.......

Isn't this just the cutest thing???? I ADORE it!!!

These are pictures of the class personalized item for our school's annual auction which is coming up next Saturday, and I just HAD to show you!!! You see, I collect cows and so that is like the theme of my classroom. I have several bovines thruout the classroom. SO, I had the lady come from the local pottery place and I came up with the idea of the cow theme. Then she said she could turn the kids' fingerprints into the face of a cow and this is what we created!!!! She put the kids prints on the outside of the bowl and mine in the center and WOW!!! It's so cute!!! Can't wait to see what the parents think.....!

JEB's first report card for the year....

Well, his report card ended up being in the middle.....sorry about that! Anyway, even though he is in the ESP class, we were very proud of him!!!! He's been doing great in school and this report card is all A's!!! Now, he really doesn't have any clue what a report card is and even though we told him how proud we were of him and that he did well.....again, no real idea what the fuss was about....but that's ok!

He was much more excited about the picture he colored today and of course, wanted to show it off by having his 'buddy' Elephant show it off!!

It FINALLY cooled off here in SW GA this week......it's only in the low 60's today!! Perfect day for being outside and doing the pumpkin patch thing.......but we're going on Monday afternoon. Our school has FALL BREAK on M/T, so we'll get a couple days away from the hub-bub of school.

Jn is officially done with vball for this year......and believe me, it was a tough year. Lots of losses that shouldn't have been losses......you know, it hard to win the first two games and then lose the next three.........more than once, I might add. Lots of younger girls on the team, BUT have some talent, so next year is looking good already! He'll enjoy the first couple of weeks......he'll rest a bit, but then he'll start going stir crazy......looking for something to do, which means he'll start annoying me b/c he won't have anything else to do. Gotta find him a HOBBY!!!

Enjoy your weekend, friends. Start your Christmas shopping.......clean out a room.......better yet, clean out the garage! Enjoy the fall weather!

found this pic and had to post it.....

Too handsome, huh????

this is inspirational!!!

ok....I don't know if this will work or not but my BFF sent this to me today and it had me in tears! Very inspirational!!

ROLL TIDE ROLL!!!!

The title is for all of you football fans.....yes, ALABAMA beat Kentucky today.....now we are 5-0 and hopefully, well on our way to another undefeated season and hopefully, the SEC Championship and maybe, a National Title........we'll see.

Anyway, now we are onto hockey season, which officially begins today for the Detroit Red Wings!! Yay........I love Center Ice! Can watch all of the games!! I'm ready!!

Ok, now for the pics........JEB spends a lot of his time playing with his blocks and his 'people'.....this is the usual result. Then he'll knock them over and start again and create something else. He will spend hours doing this.....being very meticulous about where he places them and how he lines them up. I was trying to get him to be proud of what he had done.....somehow I don't think I got that point across to him.

As for the outdoor pics, that tree is about the only place I can get him to pose for me. The one where he's smiling? Can't believe I got him to do that or actually can't believe I caught it on the camera!

This week went fast......all is well. JEB is off for Fall Break on Thursday/Friday so I will be staying home with him since there is no out of school daycare......wow, hate that. Then next week, a half day on Friday and no school for us, Monday-Tuesday. Wow....hate that. Love the fall weather though! Been cooler most of this week. I'm thinking maybe the Pumpkin Patch next weekend......hmmmmm.

Have a great weekend everyone!!!

PS.....to my new follower, TARA.......comment and let me know how to find your blog or email!!! I'd love to know more about you and family!!!!

Deb and JEB
