Run Run Rudolf!

That is what I felt like I did today. Ryan only worked until 12 because of the census. So when he got home, we decided we would finish the christmas shopping. We got Roy, Carol, Amanda, Deke, and I got some things for Ryan and Kenzie out of the way. I had to be way sneaky since Ryan and Kenzie were both with us. We got our hair cut. I now have a stacked bob. It is quite short! Wow. I didn't realize how much hair I had, but it can always grow back. I do like it this way, so I might opt to keep it pretty much like this though. Kenzie thought since Mommy was getting her hair cut, that she needed to do the same, so to appease her, I had them trim it up for her. She was so happy with the idea. Kenzie also picked out the presents for Ryan, Deke, Roy and Carol. I already knew what I was getting for Amanda. She did a great job too. We came home and wrapped presents. I then found out that I might have gotten a wrong size, so I will take the reciept with me and give it to the recepient if needed. Since we have already wrapped, I don't think I will unwrap it just to trade the thing out. If needed we can exchange it in Florida since I went to a store they have down there as well as we have up here. Kenzie also found a pair of High School Musical 2 Jammies for herself and Daddy said it was ok for her to get those. So now all I have to do is wrap a few things for Kenzie and Maddie. Then I have to wrap the things for Riley and Shelby when I get to Amanda's since we had Shelby's shipped there and Amanda picked up Riely's for me. We got turkey's at work today, so I will be giving those to Mom and Nana since we probably won't use two whole turkeys. We generally only do the turkey thing once a year. Now for the next week, it will be hectic packing and getting ready for our trip. I have to put together cheesy potatoes for work this weekend. I am baking a cake to take to work as well. Then I am baking a cake for Tina's little boy and Ryan will take that to work with him on either Thursday or Friday and then when Ryan gets off of work next Friday we are Florida bound. AAAAHHHH! The stress has begun. Hopefully I won't forget to have a good time! Talk to you all sooner or later!
Love,
Dawn

School is OUT!!!

Today was bittersweet for me.  I am happy its summer break, but that means we only have 2 years before we have a MIDDLESCHOOLER!  I cant believe we are that close already!  Both girls had a great day.  I got soaked walking to get Madispn, then the rain slacked off enough for me to have buckets of sweat rolling into my eyes!  It has been so humid here that i sweat as soon as i go outside let alone walk the more than 1/2 mile to her school.  We are starting a new walking track tomorrow... not sure how far but its gonna be fun to see

sad but true

Since the Pledge of Allegiance and The Lord's Prayer are not allowed in most public schools anymore Because the word "God" is mentioned...... A kid in Arizona wrote the attached NEW School prayer: Now I sit me down in school Where praying is against the rule For this great nation under God Finds mention of Him very odd. If Scripture now the class recites, It violates the Bill of Rights. And anytime my head I bow Becomes a Federal matter now. Our hair can be purple, orange or green, That's no offense; it's a freedom scene. The law is specific, the law is precise. Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice. For praying in a public hall Might offend someone with no faith at all. In silence alone we must meditate, God's name is prohibited by the state. We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks, And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks. They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible. To quote the Good Book makes me liable. We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,...
