Fishing With Cory

Today I decided to take Cory to the pond at the front of our housing development to go fishing. He has been really wanting to go for a while so we took his rod and some hotdogs for bait and off we went for a relaxing afternoon of mommy and me time. We did not catch anything except for some minnows and tadpoles but it was fun! Next time we won't wait so long to go again.

My Boy Scout

Cory got his uniform yesterday, doesn't he look so handsome!

A thought

My sister sent me this email today and at the bottom of the email this is what it said

'Good friends are like stars........You don't always see them, but you know they are always there.'

it truley reminded me of all the friends I have out there whom live so far away, Love you guys!

Preparing for Hanna

Well Tropical Storm Hanna is preparing to come ashore here in Jacksonville and I was busy getting prepared today, picked up the usual groceries water ice batteries. I swear they double the price on that stuff when they know everyone will need them! The kids came home from school excited because they already cancelled school tomorrow, So I had them go outback and help me pick up toys and get the pool stuff cleaned up so nothing blows around. Some of Cory's trucks were sitting at the deck edge and when I picked it up what comes slithering out from underneath but a copperhead snake! YIKES!! Karlie went running all the way around the house screaming at the top of her lungs! she was quite the site to see! needless to say I am no longer cleaning up the back yard, I am letting Steve get the rest of the stuff when he gets home, Sorry Steve.
I will keep you all updated as the storm approaches and try to post some pics along the way.
