What A Day!!!

Today was another day of football! We were done early today though, because Chandler & Kayden played at the same time. Bryant & Hunter took Chandler to his game and they played a tough one and won 6-0.
Kayden's game was away at Paradise Valley High School. His coaches had told us that they wanted all the kids to ride together in a school bus, so we all met at 7:15am.. to our surprise the "school bus" was actually.....Two Strech Hummer Limo's!!!!


The coaches had decided that since the boys had been playing so great (undefeated) that they would treat them to an away game...pro ball style! You should have seen the kids! They were in absolute heaven! One of the coaches brought McDonald's for all of them, so they sat in the parking lot and ate and then took off for their game. It was so sweet to watch the limo's pull up to the field and see our boys get out! Even the other team was taking pictures of them!
Then when we get out to the football field...it is a BRAND NEW astro-turf field. Seriously it was like a pro football field. I guess this high school just spent over a million dollars on it! Then to top it all off, they took a list of all the players and their numbers and had an announcer!!! I'm telling you...the kids seriously had one incredible day! Oh...and by the way...they won 20-6!!!

I GOT A JOB!!!!!!


So, last week I told Bryant that I had been thinking about trying to get an at-home job! So I called Transcription Exress and went through an over-the-phone preliminary screening. They called me on Monday and said that I had passed the screeing and wanted me to come in Thursday (yesterday) for an interview/tests. So I went in yesterday and took a typing test, a spelling test and a homonym test. In order to pass you have to type at least 60wpm with 90% accuracy, get at least 27 of the 33 misused homonyms and get 10/12 on the spelling test. I was so darn nervous that I was SURE I failed the typing test! My hands were shaking so bad that afterwards, I could barely even write to take my homonym test. Not only that, they usually only have a few people show up for the interview and there were 20 of us there yesterday!!! They were going to take the top 2 over-all scores and put those two people in a training starting this coming Monday, and then the next four scores in a training the following week. Anyway, so my hopes weren't very high when I left. I was so frustrated because I can type fast and I knew that I had hit the wrong key and gone back to fix it about a million times because my dang hands failed me.
Anyway, at about 4pm or so yesterday afternoon, they called me and said that I typed 68wpm at 97.7% accuracy, scored 11/12 on my spelling test, and got 29/33 homonyms correct (pretty good considering I only found 29 of them). She then asked if I could start training this coming Monday! I almost fell on the floor! I couldn't believe that I was in the top 2. Especially with only typing 68wpm. That is a terrible time, but I guess it was enough to get me through! I was so excited!
So wish me luck with training next week! I still have to find someone to watch my boys M-W because the training runs from 8:30am to 2:30pm and of course Chandler & Kayden are out of school! But I'm sure that will work out fine...just keep your fingers crossed for me that I will catch on and not make them sorry they chose me!

Happy October!!

I am so excited that it is October!!! October, to me, is the beginning of the holiday season! My kids and I are getting excited for Halloween to come, then before you know it, it will be Thanksgiving, and then Christmas!! YEAH!! I love this time of year! Sugar cookies have become a big part of our Halloween and Christmas traditions and I can't wait to get started!!! My kids already know what they are going to be for Halloween! I think this is the earliest that they have ever known! Chandler is going to be a caveman, Kayden is going to be a prisoner and Hunter is going to be a dinosaur!



Saturday Chandler & Kayden both had football games again (of course). They both WON again! Chandler's team won by a lot...I can't remember the score. Kayden's game was a close one though, they only won 20-16. It was a fun game! Kayden did great! Thank you to everyone who came to support them on Saturday! It was fun to have so many people there to watch. I actually remembered to take pictures at Chandler's game, but because I am on the sidelines with the team at Kayden's game it makes it harder to take pictures. So I posted pictures from Chandler's game and next week I will post pictures from Kayden's!
The blogs are so quiet with everyone gone to California! Hope you guys are having a good time and I can't wait to read all about your trip and see all your pictures!
