John the Happycrow

Yesterday's Sky

Practice makes perfect

Cheer Practice

Ashley had to wear her uniform to practice on Monday night..... they were having a picture retake. John ran around like a crazy man. I told him if he would run to the fence twice I would buy him a piece of candy. So , of course he did (almost 1/2 mile) and he came back saying he wanted laughy taffy. I agreed until I realized how big of a piece I purchased. I tore it in half and John screamed and cried. Everyone was looking our way because I think the crowd thought I had slapped him. Finally, I talked him into eating half a piece and he dropped it on the ground accidentally. The candy was covered in grass. Then the crying started all over again!

John Playing

Ashley and John played outside yesterday riding their bikes and chasing each other. Ashley had a field trip to see a play in Knoxville. They got to see Junie B Jones Play. Then her class went to Burger King. She made a 104 on her Spelling test. I am so proud of my sweet little girl! I am loading a picture of an airplane that flew right over us when I was taking pictures of John.

Clouds

Yesterday, we had a beautiful fall day. The leaves are changing with the season to red, orange, brown and yellow. We had an outdoor fire and listen to music last night. We had beautiful clouds that drifted away fast and covering the moon creating shadows.

Weekend Events Homecoming

We are going to have a very busy weekend. Ashley has her first dance tonight at the Fire Department. She is so excited and then tomorrow she is going to Homecoming. When I was a girl Homecoming did not start until High School. But I am excited for her and she has a beautiful dress. Grandmommy is coming to see Ashley's big event on Saturday. Her escort was Barrett a 6year old. John Richard told Ashley she was beautiful. How sweet..... but a few weeks ago when we got Ashley's dress in the mail John wanted to know if it was her Halloween Costume.
