Just An Update

Things have been real crazy. Three tournaments in two weekends I am glad it is over for a month. Last weekend Tito went to Ohio State University for a hockey tourney and I was in Lansing with AJ for a soccer tourney in Lansing and now I am in Kent Ohio at another hockey tourney. Next month we host the tourney in Michigan so no traveling, time to replenish the funds.....lol

Adrienne did awesome this weekend. She scored three goals and they were beautiful. Last night we played the Farmington Icebreakers and they came out dirty as usual. Throwing their elbows, checking, slashing, hooking......well we had the lead until the third period but we lost 5-3. Adrienne got an awesome pass and dumped it in the net.....real textbook.

AJ is off soccer for a month, he has re fractured his left leg : (
He was not playing very well and when he woke up one morning in so much pain I took him back to the orthopedic surgeon and he is broke again.....same place. Kids bones are very soft, their ligaments are stronger so he stretched his ligament and in the process torn the bone. It will heal fast it is just near his growth plate which is something that needs to be watched.

Emily is doing 4 dance classes and really loving it. She also decided to do 6 weeks of cheerleading. I have told her she is going to have to manage her time and make sure her homework gets done and the piano is practiced. Her and AJ stayed with their Auntie Marizel and Uncle JP this weekend and I brought Joel with me. I am so thankful for that....it would have been too many people in the hotel room.

My mom came with me this weekend. This is a praise report considering how she had emergency surgery about a month ago. We have had a really good time and I am so thankful to the Lord for all the blessings He has bestowed on me. My kids are doing well, my parents are doing well.....I just can't praise Him enough.

Have a BLESSED DAY everyone ; )

Meet my Freshman

Adrienne had her High School Orientation today. They had their school pride speech and received their school handbooks and got their pictures taken.
She is going to be working hard to maintain that 3.8 or higher GPA so that next year at this time we can start writing colleges about hockey or soccer scholarships. I have learned you can be the very best player, but if your grade point average is not 3.8 or higher they will not look at you. I am so proud of her and my prayer is God give her wisdom and as my dear Grandmother would say, "make her a good students" she spoke in broken English....lol

Break time is coming to an end.

It has been a wonderful summer, Emily continued in dance for the entire summer. She completed an intensive session that will place her in a higher category this Fall as she will be adding Tahitian to her jazz, tap and ballet. She is also finishing up 2 weeks of summer school just to keep up her math skills.

AJ had some sax lessons but really has taken a break from music and been intensely involved with his new soccer team that will travel this coming season to games and tournaments and I am praying none will conflict with hockey. He will be getting back to piano soon, I can't wait. He also got a spot in the middle school jazz band and will be playing the baritone sax. AJ will also be competing in solo ensemble and will perfect his piano piece, Canon in D, for competition in 2010.

Adrienne has had a summer of leisure, relaxing, sleeping till the crack of noon....well hockey is quickly approaching and she will be back to her 3 days a week practice on and off ice with soccer too. I will be on her "took-us" to maintain a 4.0 in her high school years so that she can get a scholarship in hockey or soccer. I am hoping she will letter in soccer in 9th grade....we shall see.

And Joel.....we have been working on potty training and frankly he would just rather poop in his pull up....but he will start pre school in September poo poo trained or not because he has pee pee down pat. He has been wearing his spider man undies that I think his BFF, Stunt Man, gave him...lol

In the fall, I will start studying the money merge account and possibly will become an agent for United First Financial and will work this along side my radiology job.

I will see you soon friends, looking forward to getting back into the swing of blogging and looking to get reacquainted with friends and make some new ones.

Fall is coming and so is October.

Our Vacation

We had a wonderful time at Cedar Point on Friday and at Kalahari Water Park on Saturday. Joel is holding this doughnut and it is Sunday morning. This was part of our complimentary breakfast at our hotel. I asked him why he had wrapped up that doughnut and placed it on the table by the door he said, "I am taking that home for Stunt Man."....lol
Joel and I spent the day in Kiddie Kingdom and Planet Snoopy while the other brave souls rode most of the roller coasters. I am a Big Fat Chicken but I did ride a few and I don't recommend it. OMGosh I cannot believe how fast and steep some of those rides are. I cannot believe my Emily had the guts to ride them....
This is a day at Kalahari Water Park, Joel has been there 3 times. The first time he was there I was actually pregnant with him.
Me and my riding buddy at Cedar Point, we spent the whole day together and did some good bonding....lol
This is at Kalahari.
This is at Cedar Point.
Planet Snoopy.
A penny for your thoughts Joel.


This is Tito, Adrienne, AJ and Emily on MaxAir. Now, this is really gross and I was so mad. Joel and I were standing under that ride watching them swing back and forth and I felt something wet hit the top of my head. I am pretty sure someone spit and BULLSEYE right on the top of my head. Thank God it was not a hocker...I was able to wipe my head with a diaper wipe but Oh was I mad!!!
And last but not least, I took this picture before we left. This is Lucky sitting in our luggage bag....
"So you think you are going somewhere???"

You can't teach cats new tricks.

Do you think maybe I could get some flowers, chocolates even $ NOOOOOO........ my cat's gift me with dead birds and leave them on the living room floor . Yes, to them this is a gift...to me I hate it and it is gross. I could not save this little one, but I have saved 9 from the jaws of Lucky and Carly. I tell them, "kill all the mice you find, leave the birds ALONE!!!"
