We are driving home from dinner tonight and talking about rhyming words. Everyone is throwing out really hard words to try and rhyme, like chocolate and purple. So I say "what rhymes with Uranus?" and Mason says "how about paradeus?"
"What does that mean?" I ask.
Mason says . . . wait for it . . .
"I think it is latin for parade."
I cracked up. I told him I would have to run home and pull out my latin dictionary and check it out.
OMG! The Masonism is back.

5 more days of school
Mason and Morgan only have 5 more days of school. So, what am I doing? you ask. MAKING TEACHER GIFTS!!! Frantically.
I am making Morgans teachers photo albums with a picture of each kid and then a note or drawing each kid made for them. And she has three teachers.
For Mason's teacher, I am giving her a keychain, a gift card to Books-A-Million, and a clothespin memo holder (a great idea I got at QKU last year from Heather).
I will post pictures of the finished products when I can.
After the big graduation trips this weekend I will be cleaning my house like a mad woman because my mommy is coming to visit for a week. (YAY!) She retired from her job at the dentist's office and she is coming to Texas for a visit. I cannot wait. I took two days off while she is here so we have a 4-day weekend together. And she will be here for Morgan's dance recital which will be awesome because she has never seen her dance in person - only on video. Morgan is excited about that, too.
We went to see Shrek the Third this weekend while my sister was here for her birthday. It was really cute and we had a great time with Aunt Tracy as usual.
Anywho, I am at work, so I better get back to it.
PS for those who asked about the grades - "E" means excellent. Then you would have S - Satisfactory Progress, L - Limited Progress, and U - Unsatisfactory Progress.

Dance, School, Housework, OH MY!
Yes, that is all I have been doing. Morgan has been getting ready for her recital. Mason is busy with school. I had my carpets cleaned so lots of furniture moving and housecleaning.
Sam and I are going to be travelling in just a couple weeks all across Texas for graduations. Justin and Melissa both graduate this year about 7 hours apart. EEK! Lots of driving for Sam.
Check back soon for some pictures.
