The first week is on the books

Well, the first week is down in the books. It was a pretty good week I might say. The only thing that totally bit was that Lil man got sick this morning and we didn't get to school. BUMMER!!! Anyway, I am hoping that he gets to feeling better soon. He's not a very happy camper.

A holiday weekend this weekend, so that means I am cleaning up the house and getting ready for hubby to come home for his break. I know lil man will love to see him and so will mommy!

I want to wish everyone a Super September!!

HUGS

Trip to Ohio and HOF!!

They're coming to take me away ha ha; They're coming to take me away ha ha... to the funny farm!!!! ROFL

Well, at least it's catchy. School starts next Monday for my lil man and myself. I can't believe he's going to Pre-K. SNIFF! :( I have been in meetings for the past 2 days and I am going crazy b/c my room is no where near ready. I basically have 8 hours to be done! HELP!!!!!

On a better note, lil man is getting excited, yet apprehensive about going to his BIG school. He told my friend today that he didn't want to go to the big school. He liked his little school. Well, I can't help him there. I guess I am upset too b/c I will not be able to walk him to his classroom on his first day of school. Bummer. I drop him off so I can greet my students on their first day of 5th grade.

Well, I will post more when I can. BTW Football season is gearing up too!!!! GO VOLS and GO BROWNS!!!!

Trip to Ohio and HOF!!

I figured I would post the long awaited pics of my trip to Ohio so that Gareth didn't eat himself into oblivion on popcorn!!! LOL

Well, I am not sure what to make of this mountain, but it does look kinda like..... well you use your imagination. It's in North Carolina

Next, I had to go past the capitol building in Charleston, WV. It sure looks like a capitol building!!!

My trip consisted of me visiting a few old friends, seeing my grandmother, going to the National Ribs Burnoff at the fairgrounds (DG and I sampled some really good pulled pork sandwiches,cool strawberry smoothies, and I had some New Orleans cuisine that I missed so!) , and catching up on some rest (yeah right my little man kicked me every night!! )


Then, on Saturday, August 4th, we, attended the Hall of Fame Grand Parade. Here are a few things we saw during our almost 2 hours of standing..... next time we get there a little earlier and find some grass to sit down on! Right DG??

The greatest football players are why everyone was in Canton for this past week. This is an annual celebration of the greats of Professional football.

I never saw a pickle fly.

Oscar the Grouch came flying by too!!! Wonder if his elephant is in that trash can?? hmmmmm

A flying birthday cake??? This was the balloon for the 100th Birthday of President William McKinley. He hailed from Canton, Ohio

Now, I finally have proof that pigs do fly!!!!



DG and some really cute lil boy!!!!

The Coors Light Silver Bullet came to town. But it didn't bring those wonderful cool breezes and frost like in the commercials. I also didn't receive a Coors Light sample either. I was really bummed.

That same cute little boy with his mommy. Wonder who they are???? They look really happy!!


After the parade, DG, my son, and I left for glorious home and went swimming later that afternoon. I had a great time at home and hope to be able to do it again!!

This is the famous place that all football greats want to end up. This is a great place to visit if you love football. There are now 16 of my beloved Browns now enshrined in Bronze here!

Here's a list of enshrinees..
