Today is the day!! We are leaving to go to Oklahoma to see our son graduate from basic training. We can't wait. He called and said they have had some rehearsals. They had a concert the other night and they played Proud to be an American and Austin said a lot of people were crying(of course he didn't say he was crying!). A few weeks ago we were watching Extreme Makeover Home Edition (a family tradition in my house) and they were playing An American Soldier and I was crying my eyes out. My kids thought I was crazy!! This is a crazy, emotional experience for me. I can't wait to see him!!

Birthdays

Today is Autumns 11th birthday. I can't believe how time flies. We have a very busy day ahead of us. We are finishing our science project (last minute as usual) and cleaning the house to get ready for her slumber party tomorrow night. We are expecting about 10 little ladies. Let's hope we all survive! We have planned to make pizzas, decorate cupcakes, make beaded necklaces or bracelets, paint on t-shirts and make cookies, and as a very last, last, last resort, we will watch movies. Then Saturday morning you will find us at the ball field looking very sleepy!

Cute song about basic training!
