KIDS CHOICE WEEK

This week is kids choice for menu planning.
Monday: Chips salad (taco salad) with milkshakes for dessert
Tuesday: Family night at Chick-fil-a
Wednesday: Hot dogs and mac and cheese, with fruit salad for dessert
Thursday: Baked spaghetti with salad, and cupcakes for dessert
Friday: Leftovers
Saturday: Roast beef sandwiches with AuJus, pasta salad, fruit salad and mississippi mudd for dessert.
Sunday: Chicken fried steak, garlic mashed potatoes, green beans, rolls, and mississippi mudd for dessert.
John's parents will be in for the weekend so I had to help a little with the weekend meals, but Meagan chose the roast beef sandwiches.
John will be out of town most of the week so I thought it would be fun to have a little fun with dinner :). Next weeks menu will definitely be a little healthier.

Meagan's Notes.....

hi my name is meagan i like to do things here are the things i like to do i like to play guitar, and knit.

I gave Meagan a homework assignment of writing about herself on my blog. She had a lot of fun writing, and already has a title picked out for her next entry "What Rockstars Like to do for fun!" Can't wait to read what she has to say. I tried to get Meagan to type more about herself, but she said that was enough for now:).

So I will write more about her; she loves to do crafts and make gifts for people, she is always coming up with new ideas and things to give others, she has a very tender kind heart, she is a wonderful big sister to both Jacob and Ryder, although I think that at times Jacob would disagree on the wonderful part:). She is a joy to our family and has her father wrapped around her finger, I have been told she is a lot like I was as a kid, but I also see a lot of John in her personality and outlook on life. It is fun to see a little of each of our personalities come out in our children.

The Photo Session

I was trying to get a "good" picture of all three kids together. You know one where they would all be looking at me and smiling. Well, after 20 pictures I gave up :). But, I love this one, I thought it was precious how Meagan and Ryder were sharing a moment together.

THE FIRE TRUCK

John purchased a Fire Truck off of ebay, ( he say's it is for marketing :)), The kids love it, ( big and small),. He now has it all lettered up with RestorAmerica, and 1800BoardUp, It is a pretty cool idea, or a pretty cool toy for a big kid?!?!?!?

He has used it for marketing and the agent's love it, but most of them are male, so I am thinking that they like it for two reasons, 1. because it is a neat idea for marketing, no one else has a fire truck to market with (besides the fire department, and really they don't want to have to push their services ) and 2. because how cool is it to have a fire truck to ride in:)

Jacob got a new razor and shaving cream, he loves to shave his face!!

Ryder had a fun Christmas playing with everyone's gifts, he especially loved the boxes :).

Meagan got her guitar, she was so excited, can't wait to start lessons, and start writing her own songs.
