OMG that took me like 10 hours to do. I can't stand it that the pictures dont line up with the words and yet I tried everything to fix it. Maybe I will learn how to do it one of these days. And another thing... while I'm ranting...why oh why do the pictures come out in a backasswards order? That pissed me off too!

Ok I'm done complaining... try to follow allong with my post below...

(sarcastic grin)

See I told you I would do it. Oh ye of little faith...

This is my Mom and Dad's mailbox.


I snapped this picture so I could send it up to my aunt in NH just for fun.

















The next day it looked like this. So I had to snap another picture to send up to her. It kinda scared me cause I thought I was seeing things.













Next we have Chase at the Swamp Buggy Parade. The kids always get lots of candy and coolie cups at this event. Chase is holding up an airplane and wearing beads that he got. And of course the pumpkin is full of candy and advertisements.

The swamp buggy races were started right here where we live. at the end of the race weekend the winning driver and the Swamp Buggy Queen jump into the mud pit together. Always a good time!



Here is Chase with his birthday cake for his 4th birthday. I let him pick out the cake, can you tell? He is so proud of his pumpkin cake.














Here is my nephew Joey, a friend Michelle and Chase being pulled in a wagon for trick-or-treating. This was their second go round when Uncle Kevin took them.











This is really funny...for Chase that is. One day he pointed to this sun beam on the floor of the kitchen and called it a toothbrush. So here is the picture of the big toothbrush. Also one day I was getting out of the shower and Chase was on my bed and he called me over and showed me some dust flying through the sunbeams. I was amazed that he slowed down enough to notice it. A minute later he was jumping on the bed again being a boy.



This is what my yard sale looked like before everyone came and took stuff. Do you like my huge dinosaur?







After the yard sale Jarrett and my nephew Nick (not Nicholas) were having fun counting the money!!!















And finally this is Chase with his birthday present from his Dad that his Pappy dropped off. He was very happy to get a Thomas the train play set.














One thing I don't have pictures of is Rachel and the girls. They came down the day I was having the yard sale a visited a bit at the house. Then we got together again for a great seafood dinner and we didn't even have to change tables this time! I am so thankful that we had kept in touch over these long years.

This weekend we are having a hot dog sale fund raiser and a pancake breakfast for the scouts.
Oh and I talked to my friend DeeAnn and she misses me too. Her and her son left the troop just after summer camp and I have not gotten to talk to her.

Ok thats enough for now...

I keep saying to myself

"Man, I gotta put that on my blog!"

Don't ask me why I call myself a man, I just do it as a saying. I don't really think I am a man.

Anyway...I have stuff to say and I have pictures that I have wanted to post but darn it if I can find some time to do it.

I wanted to tell y'all Happy Ween. Cause that's how Chase says it.

And I wanted to tell you about my yard sale and about Rachel's visit.

And about other cool stuff too and I will do it all but just not right now. You will have to wait for a bit. Cause I need to get more that five minutes to do it. M'kay?

I will do it. You don't mind if its late do you?

Thanks
