Ok so I set this account up in September of this year so that I could comment on my friend's blogs but I never actually thought I would do a blog of my own.......what the heck. Why not, right? hmmm...I don't do well chronicling my life let alone my family's life. I mean I tried to have a diary when I was younger but that lasted about a day.
Well the football season just got over for both boys. Stephon was in MCJFL for the 2nd year. His team's record was 6-1! Stephon played running back (and something else but I'm a girl and still learning) on the offense. He played (something) on the defense also. He worked on special teams. He did the punt returns. He kicked field goals. He basically played every minute of the games. AND he was voted MVP during one of their games!!! He was sad for the season to end and I must admit that Zach and I were a little sad too. Ashton was in Lakeland Youth Center flag football. He played all positions...with his short attention span it was hard for him to play just one position. His team was undefeated and they even won their championship game in 20 degree weather and 50 mile an hour wind...ok it wasn't that cold but I'm sure it wasn't far off from that!
The end of the first trimester at school was last week. Stephon is in 5th grade this year. He got A's and B's with only one C (Language). I was so proud of him. I was really stressing for him to get the honor roll because last year he got it all 3 semesters!! But at mid-terms he had maybe 2 or 3 C's and he brought them up!! Way to go Stephon! Ashton is in 2nd grade this year.....side note.....this will be the last year the boys will be in the same school until Ashton is a freshman and Stephon is a senior!! OMG......He got the honor roll!!! Ashton has a bit of a behavior problem in class but he's working on that and will all the disruptions he still did a very good job.
Stephon started AAU basketball last week. For right now he's only practicing once a week. We'll see if he'll pick up another night of practice soon. They are planning on playing 30-40 games this season...YIKES! He's very fired up about it and I can't wait to see him start playing his games.
So this last week of November is a big one. It's Thanksgiving week. YEA! Zach and I will be making our very first family dinner. It was only going to be me, Zach, Stephon and Ashton but now we will have guests. Zach's sister Laurie and her boy Nic-o-las will be joining us. I can't wait. We have a feast setup and succeed or fail it's going to be an experience!! We have to make our dinner early so that Stephon can go with his dad to his grandma's house. I'm just thankful that we can work together and have Stephon's best interest in mind
