Wall-E at the Dollar Movie

When you want to do something special and there are this many kids you have to look for the bargains. Jenni found the Disney Movie "Wall-E" at the dolloar show so needless to say that is the price everyone was looking for. Jenni with her four Kenzie, Morgan, Mason and Brayden; Robin with Emma and Alayna; Millie had Derrin (movie started at 5:00 his parents weren't out of work yet); Me with Demitrius, Kalee, Britenee and Gracie. So as you can probably tell the whole front line on the front stoop was all my group. I love having the opportunity to get all the kids together and allowing them to play and get to know each other. I only wish it was possible to have all the little ones get together just once in this lifetime to at least meet each other. Someday it will happen there are so many little ones that I still need to meet and get to know.

Trick-or-Treat




I really need to figure out how to put together a slideshow for the blog as I have sooooo many wonderful picture of getting everyone ready for their special day. There was so much fun in doing up each of the kids in their own unique way. Each one was I want this or I want that and getting all just the way they wanted was somewhat of a challenge. Included in the gang was Kalee, Britenee, Demitrius, Gracie, Emma, Alayna, Makiya, Derrin, Heather, Ashley, Robin, Scott, Julius, Dominic and of course ME. I usually don't take preference to my pictures as I love them all but Alayna has really got my heart with her JoJo The Clown and those eyes looking at me. Anyhow, lots of goodies were had by all.

Soccer Time





Talk about keeping busy, we have been trying something new with the soccer thing and needless to say all four are participating. We do practice on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday after school and then on Sunday starting at 1:00 Britenee's game starts, Gracie and Demitrius both play on different teams with their games starting at 2:00 p.m. Then to bring up the end of the day is Kalee who either starts at 3:00 or 4:00 p.m. and a couple of times we have been blessed with a double header and have still been at the soccer field at 6:30 p.m. Makes for an extremely long day but the kids sleep well at night and have a blast playing the game.

150th Lucas County Fair

Not to slow down any, we headed out to the Lucas County Fair last night. I was really disappointed in what it has become. There are just not the fun things and the excitment that there was at one time to go to the fair. Ashley, Scott, Derrin, Makiya, Kalee, Demitrius, Bella and myself went. There were only about a half dozen rides that the kids could ride and the games were very expensive for really cheap items as prizes. There was a curb around everything that was set up so I was not able to get up to the rides or even the consession stands on my own. Anyhow, the kids enjoyed running between rides even though I was very uncomfortable with it as I could not be right there with them.

I am excited about the Wood County Fair and the Monroe County Fair on Monday for Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert. The Wood County Fair I have friends that show their horses there and they are going to let the Bella, Kalee and Britenee ride them. They are really excited about this.
