I want to be The Bachelor!!

It is no surprise that Cody is often the source of a lot of laughter in our house. Last night our TV happened to be tuned into the new season of The Bachelor. Normally, we haven't watched it, but after watching the beginning you get kind of hooked. Well, it seems Cody was very hooked as well. He was so intrigued by how all these very pretty women would fight for one man to marry them. He was so in awe of the pretty dresses and the ratio of 30:1. During one of the commercials there is an ad that states "if you or someone you know would like to be the next Bachelor, go to bachelor.com to sign up". Right away Cody exclaimed "I do!" "I am going to Bachelor.com!" To Cody, that commercial was his personal invitation to be the next Bachelor.

I informed Cody that when the Bachelor narrows down his choices, he has to bring that girl home to meet his parents. I asked him what he would do if we didn't like/approve of his choice. He quickly answered that he would just have to start over with 30 new women then!

Uh oh!

Well, I was hoping this day wouldn't come this early, but today I received a call from school. Mr. Goetz, the school administrator, told me that he had Cody in his office along with another boy from Cody's class. Apparently, Cody's teacher asked Mr. Goetz to talk to the boys regarding their behavior. They had been shoving and hitting each other so the teacher decided they should be taken aside to make sure they know the rules. We will see what Cody's take is on this when we talk to him about it this evening...stay tuned.

Time Flies

Hard to believe it has almost been a year since I posted anything.  At that time I had good intentions of posting more regularly to capture things going on throughout the year.  Well, I am going to try again. We are getting close to another new school year.  Connor is a senior!  I am still trying to wrap my head around it.  The time has gone so fast.  We went to several open houses for friends of his that graduated this year.  It makes me sad even though I know it is a part of life.  Part of starting up this blog again is to help me put my feelings down as we go through the journey of life.  Cody is starting 8th grade.  One last year of middle school. Both boys make me so proud.  They both continue to play hockey.  Cody is still a goalie and does such a good job in a tough position.  Me, on the other hand...being a goalie mom is not easy.  Almost a year ago my grandma moved in with us.  I am blessed to still have a grandparent in my life.  It is an honor to take care of her but h

Proud Parents

Last night we had a goal conference for Connor. We are so proud of him. He is doing wonderful in school and has had a lot of scores of 100% and above! His test scores are wonderful. He is scoring very high and is at the top of his class. He is also in GATE (Gifted And Talented Education) again this year for math and science. We are so proud!
