Well, my boys never cease to amaze me. It's been quite a week since I posted. No, I DID NOT get the 3 things done on my list. I DID "finish" the blog prizes, but I don't like them...so I"ll have to alter them a bit. I DID get 2 things painted for the frolics. They are cute. Mostly "piddly" things. Not sure if "piddly" is a word...but you know what I mean, right?
So, you ask...what does Touchdown and Choir MEAN for a post? Well, not sure if I even mentioned it, but Kirk decided to PLAY football. OKAY. Makes the game a little more stressful, but hey...I LIKE the idea that he's playing. Well, he obviously missed all of the "HARD" work all of the other team has had for months now...but he was practicing kicking. Luckily we've had a couple of weeks of good old-fashioned Tornado football...you know like when I WAS in school and the score was always highly in our favor. We didn't really MEAN to run up the score, it just happened. Especially when the band played "Sweet Caroline". Okay, I'm digressing here. ANYWAY, Kirk MADE 2 kicks in the first game that he got to play in...yea Kirk..put 2 points on the board. Well, last week the score was way on up there and Kirk went in as Wide Receiver. HUH? OKAY...forewarning: this is ALL from a mom's perspective here: SO, my nephew was in as QB and Kirk is in the end zone...Justin throws a pass and Kirk CATCHES IT FOR A TOUCHDOWN!!! Talk about exciting. I mean it WAS just 6 points out of the 52 we racked up...but STILL. That video will be shown every Christmas LOL.
And since my good, sweet boys are surprising me lately...J.T. tells me that he's joining the choir. I've mentioned it a couple of times when he and I are in the car singing like CRAZY to KLOVE. I thought he was blowing me off, but ON HIS OWN decided to talk to our choir director and he went to his first practice last night. DID I MENTION I'm so proud of my kids? They are the best. Not because of what they do...but because of who they are.
OKAY...on to creative stuff. Well, do you ever just have so much to do you don't know where to start? I'm narrowing it down: (1) do baby paintings that I have an order for (2) more frolics painting (3) FINISH "piddly" things I've started. If I'm lucky I'll also do the blog prizes, paint yard signs and some fun thing I"m working on.
I also just found out that my sister-in-law, Kim is coming home with the girls (my beautiful triplet nieces). Isabelle, Alyssa, and Makenna. They will be here Thursday afternoon through Monday.
AND...I have/had this creative weekend planned...but things change. Some things are more important (like babysitting my nieces and watching Kirk play football). There is a Louisiana Art Ed Assoc. convention at Tech this weekend. I was looking forward to it. THAT's ANOTHER story that I'll save for another day. I do think I will make it to the Saturday stuff. But I'll miss something Friday night AND dinner at Squire Creek Saturday. I"m pretty sure I"m taking this workshop Saturday that is probably sure to fill my creative brain with more ideas. Tell ya more next week. Hey...MAYBE I'll have photos. Wouldn't that surprise you?
till then....
Create.

Suzy-Your boys are great!! JT will be a great asset to the choir.
Erin and I have practiced our own duet in the car and maybe someday we will actually get the nerve to sing in front of an audience. But the real blessing is praising God with our children by our side..OUT LOUD!! Erin asked me why I don't sing in the choir anymore..There was no answer. Now about Kirk..Great!! I am so proud of him. He will not regret his decision to play. What a great memory he will have when he's our age and what a great story he will have to tell a child of his own one day.
I know you are excited to see the twins. I know they are growing like little weeds!! I'm loving the artwork on Artsonia. You are doing a great job Suzy. I hope this school year is a little better than last. You have such an impact on the kids. Have a blessed week-end. Go Tornado!!
