Tyler the new skate board junkey

Tyler's best friend James is really into skate boarding. All Tyler wanted to do was play soccer and all James wanted to do was skate board, so needless to say many days James ended up playing soccer as Tyler did not give in too much an anything but soccer. I can imagine James trying to figure out how to get Tyler to like skate boarding (even if just a little bit) and low and behold I think he did it. Tyelr came home one day and said that he wanted to use all his money he had saved (about $90.00) to go and buy a Real skate board, not like the one he had from the local Wal Mart. So mom okayed the purchase with his dad and decided it was his money and that is why he saves it, so we let him go for it. We went to the local skate board shop and he picked out what he wanted. It was like Christmas to him and he loved it. The two boys immediately went over to Jame's house, who had a ramp in his basement that his dad built and began to teach Tyler the moves. Now all the boys want to do each day is go to the skate park and skate board. (Did I say that I can't wait till school starts this Friday) They have even talked another friends grandmother into taking them to the park because I said no after already taking them twice that week. You might ask what injuries he has received, well they haven't been too bad, but he has been wearing a writ brace and he bruised his tail bone on Thursday. (I am just grateful we have insurance now in case something more server happens)

Hanson's Visit

All summer, Brieanna has asked when her cousin Lyndsay could come and have a sleep over (it has to be more than one night she insisted because one night is just not enough time) Well, little Lucas had to come down to Primary Children's Hospital for an appointment so they all made the journey for a couple of days to the big city. After Lucas' appointment, we went to the gateway and then to the zoo and just had a great time hanging out. James' birthday was the day after mine, so we ordered a cake for the both of us and had a little celebration. Of course the girls could not get enough of each other and were sad when it was time for them to head home.

Breaking Dawn Update

Okay, well I did not get the book on Saturday and I was quite bummed to say the least. Troy even took me to WalMart to get a book and then we would sell the one that came in the mail. (what a good man) However they sold 600 copies before morning so I was just out of luck and had to wait till Monday afternoon when the mail came again. I did finally get the book and loved it. I may be weired, but I really liked the way everything turned out and I am just a happy camper now. Edward & Bella forever :)

Breaking Dawn



Tomorrow is the big day! My heart rate has increased just thinking about it. I am SO excited! (am I going crazy or what) I have pre-ordered this book and should arrive tomorrow in the mail. If you see me crying you will know that I did not get it and I have to wait till Monday. I have already warned my family to not expect ANYTHING from me once I get it. No cooking, cleaning, talking, nothing :) We are even going camping tonight and I told Troy that I have to be home by 3:00 to get the mail. :)

For those of you who have not read the rest of these books, you have to start now, if you are like me and half of America, you will love them. I will let you know how it is in a few days.
