Yea!! Obama


Guess who we voted for? Yes, we are happy campers. Now, let's get things changed around for the good. Guess who sent the shirt? Thanks, Aunt Norma and Uncle Bill.

Mr. Golf

I asked Richard to send me some pics of himself in his golf knickers. This is what the man wears when he plays in tournaments. I love it!!!





Halloween





Halloween was a blast. Jacob had a carnival at school which Nestor and I attended. Nestor was a ham as usual. No one recognized Jacob whom was called Mr. Bones. Samuel refused to wear a costum so he wore an "incredibles" t-shirt and a cape. I did make cupcakes for his class. Samuel was a riot trick a treating. We had to talk to each person for about 3-5 minutes as Sammy talked and asked questions like: What is your name? Where did you get your decorations? He would also ask for more candy which he got from everyone he asked. No shortage of candy in their bags. OK, the chocolates are mine. While we were trick a treating Sammy told me, "Mommy, this is fun!!" We later went to the Waldo's and Sammy told the kids, "Come I will show you where the candy is!!" Jacob like to hit the button that made fog as the kids approached the house. I really enjoyed this Halloween with my monsters!!

My Heart Has Been Touched


Just a short little story. I help out Jacob's class every Tuesday. Natasha has half day on Tuesdays so she goes with me. Well this last Tuesday I was telling Natasha that when we walk into the class to be discreet. We walk in and Jacob yells, "There's my sissy!" So much for discretion. The letter for the week in Jacob's class is "N". So it was share time and Jacob held up his hand and told his teacher that he wanted to share his sister. So Natasha goes and stands next to her brother holding hands in front of his class. He said, " This is my sister. She is eleven years old. She likes to play with me and I love her." I got misty eyed. It was so sweet. It touched my heart. His teacher then asked, "What is your sister's name?" Jacob replied, "Sissy". Teacher asked, "What is her first name?" Jacob said he forgot and Natasha told the class her name and it starts with a "N". It was priceless!!!

First Tee


We are at the open house at the first Tee. The boys are going to learn how to play golf since neither Nestor or I know how to play golf. They are so cute I can barley stand it.







They are so little compared to the rest of the boys. They are not intimidated in the least!!



They are trying to teach Sammy to shake hands and introduce himself. Sammy has no problem introducing himself and the family. Samuel do not know any strangers much like his grandpa Whitlow. He's a talker.

















Sammy won a hat for hitting the target. Daddy was very happy to wear the hat that Samuel won. Like Nestor needs another hat!!!
