fall school pics!
Here they are! Austin & Timmy's fall school photos! I usually don't get them because their school also does them in spring (&I like those better) with class photos. Since Timmy's soccer team opted out of photos, I thought I'd better get them. Timmy is in kindergarten and Austin is now in third grade.

Stupid People...
This was sent to me and I just had to share it....
These 16 Police Comments were taken off actual police car videos
around the country:
16 "You know, stop lights don't come any redder than the one you just went through."
15 "Relax, the handcuffs are tight because they're new. They'll stretch after you wear them a while."
14 "If you take your hands off the car, I'll make your birth certificate a worthless document."
11 "You don't know how fast you were going? I guess that means I can write anything I want to on the ticket, huh?"
9 "Warning! You want a warning? O.K, I'm warning you not to do that again or I'll give you another ticket."
8 "The answer to this last question will determine whether you are drunk or not. Was Mickey Mouse a cat or a dog?"
7 "Fair? You want me to be fair? Listen, fair is a place where you go to ride on rides, eat cotton candy and corn dogs and step in monkey poop."
6 "Yeah, we have a quota. Two more tickets and my wife gets a toaster oven."
3 " No sir, we don't have quotas anymore. We used to, but now we're allowed to write as many tickets as we can."
2 "I'm glad to hear that the Chief (of Police) is a personal friend ofyours. So you know someone who can post your bail."
AND THE WINNER IS....
1 "You didn't think we give pretty women tickets? You're right, we don't. Sign here."

My favorite song
I LOVE this song by Matthew West. You tube has the most beautiful video of it posted
You've got to check it out! I am considering using it to dance for our school's talent show as a surprise to the kids.

Germs everywhere!
Timmy and I are home sick today, so I thought I'd post some interesting facts. I have the number one germ-iest job in America! It doesn't help that I am also in an very enclosed space working in the kid's faces more or less. I love my job, BUT....anyway... Read on......
Dr. Charles Gerba, a microbiologist at the University of Arizona, whose nickname is "Dr. Germ," spoke to ABC News recently, about the germiest professions in America:
1. Teacher/day-care worker
2. Cashier, bank employee
3. Tech support/computer repair
4. Doctor or nurse
5. Lab scientist
6. Police officer
7. Animal control officer
8. Janitor or plumber
9. Sanitation worker (AKA garbage man/woman)
10. Meat packer
NOW....GO WASH YOUR HANDS!

I can see clearly now the rain is gone.....
Recently,Austin failed his school eye exam so we needed to visit the eye doctor. At first he was devastated and tried hiding the notice, but then he warmed to the idea. The exam went well though there is concern over a freckle marking on his retinal nerve-which is to be monitored over the next few years. He will need glasses for distance such as copying form the board, assemblies, viewing movies, etc. He doesn't need them for reading-sort of like me-'cept I didn't need glasses till I was in my late 20's. Here 's Austin (Timmy too doing HIS Elton impersonation) ....

Last day of soccer...
Austin's last day was Sat. He did very well this year-coach said he was most improved. His favorite position was goalie. We hope that he gets the same coach in spring. The coach is British and they play a British style, a "tackle" meanss to get the ball. It's funny to hear the other teams responses when we all yell "make the tackle!" He's done a great job with the kids.
