Brad with Braces, Ryan is missing teeth...


I forgot to post pictures of the boys I took this fall, it was sort of late in the day, so the color isn't the greatest.

Lake Effect Snow warning

Yup, you read it right. We are supposed to get between 6 and 12 " of snow by tomorrow, our warning is until tomorrow afternoon at 1:00 pm



Had Bradley's PT conferences last night. He better get back on track! He didn't have a pleasant evening. Social Studies, he's doing great, Art he puts too much detail in his work... is that really a bad thing? Language Arts, she wasn't there, Science Brad stares into space a lot instead of doing work, Math, teacher was sick, PE, could of gotten an A but didn't do writing about physical activity ( the written work is to make up for being absent) He knew he could of written about Cross Country, Mr. Sexton even commented on how excited his son Jeff ( HS CC coach ) is about Bradley competing at the HS level. ( although he's got another year before that in MS) Band, if he did the written work and practiced he'd have an A, in class he does great. Brad's math teacher/ BB coach will help him on the school end, I will push from home end.. He's a smart kid.

Went to Ryan's conference the night before, Academically, he's doing great, but he talks too much ,, has to stop sneaking toys to school and may have to be checked for a bladder issue, he seems to use the bathroom every 30/40 minutes... hmmmm AT LEAST HE DOES HIS HOMEWORK!!!!!!

There wasn't any snow on the ground when I went to bed the night before

And it continued to snow

I just thought you might enjoy seeing our snow.... We did get the snow blower running last night, although it does need some parts, which includes the electric start.. for my benefit..

The snow did finally stop somewhere after midnight. The back roads are still a mess but the main roads seemed fine, although, I only travel a mile to work.

Winter

Well, Looks like winter is here... We got about 8-9 inches of snow during the day today, and are still under a lake effect snow warning until 1am. There wasn't a lot of snow when I got to work, it all fell while at work and has yet to stop. It is really pretty, but I don't think anybody was ready!

Fall colors

For my Friends in the Northwest, here are our Michigan colors

Halloween

Okay, so I wasn't able to get the alien made, that Ryan requested, but I did manage to make a mummy within 3 hours and that included a trip to the hardware store for more glue sticks! Bradley wore only the T-shirt in the picture.... He decided to go... at 5:30 last night...
