3:30 AM..

I can't sleep right now becuase my husband is still not home.. I am still getting used to being married to a policeman.. He left at 2 pm and went to Whiteriver to the Tribal Fair.. When he was leaving he is loading up his riot gear and I had a few questions as to why are you taking that.? He told me they usually need it with all the rocks and crap that gets thrown at them.. He also proceeds to tell me that it gets pretty wild down there. So now that its 330 am and he was suppost to be here at 11pm that is why I would be up.. I figure in time I will get used to this but for right now I just want him to drive up..
This is more of a frustation post than anything.. So sorry... I am using this as a journal also, and want to keep track of little things like this to see how much I grow over the coming years of dealing with things like this...

Random Pictures..

My sister in law brought me over a disk of pictures that she had since last christmas so I thought I would put some of them on...

Shooting!!!

The last month has been alittle stressful around our neighborhood. We have had a burgler coming in to single women at night.. Well he attempted my home one night while Clay was at work.. Easy, if Clays car is gone he knows he isn't home.. Well it has been going on for about a month and a half now and it is a little nerve racking.. So Clay took me out shooting the other day. SCARY!! I did hit the target but just rather not have to shoot somebody.. Well the good news is they think they caught the 2 guys the other night around the corner from our home. Not real upstanding citizens, so I am glad they are off the street. Here are a couple of pictures of us shooting.

First Day of School

Well here it is again.. I can't believe that summer gets shorter every year. I swear we used to start school at the end of August. Well I had mixed feelings this year but now that it is started, I am glad that it was early.. lol.... I have Keltcee in 5th grade, Rylee in 3rd grade, and Kennedee in 1st grade.. that leaves me alone with Tate and Gavin at home.. its been kinda nice because Clays schedule is from 2 pm until 10 pm so its been nice to have him take the boys for a couple of hours and so it gives me time to clean all alone...Thanks BABE!!!

CAMPING!

Well its been awhile since I posted. We have been very busy and I actually took some pictures, so I hope you don't mind alot of pictures...

We went to the Beecroft Reunion and had so much fun. The kids loved being outside and didn't know quite what to do.

We were all setting around and I told them to get out of there and get dirty. In about 20 minutes they all come back covered from head to toe in mud, they said I couldn't get mad cause I had told them to get dirty..

It was really good to spend some time with my Beecroft relatives that we don't get to see very often.
