A few busy weeks...

We have had some busy weeks and a broken computer.. uggg.. that can make someone mad!! We had to shop for school stuff and get Carson ready to begin 1st grade. He was excited at first; however, has had a hard time adjusting and gets a little upset everyday. Here is a pic of Carson the morning of his 1st day of First Grade.
We also got a new pool for the summer and are enjoying every minute of it. Carson has learned how to swim w/ out his floatie thingee's and Colby is getting braver every day. Colby was using the floatie's as well as a ring, but has asked more than not to get out of the ring and swim around w/ just the floaties.

Yes, Carson is crazy and wants to jump, dive, flip and try to get himself trapped like Cris Angel Mind Freak and escapes.

There is the little man smiling in his floatation devices..ha!

There is a good shot of our pool. The backyard has became quite the playground. We have the Pool, Trampoline, Half Pipe Skate Ramp and tons of riding toys, etc.. We are the new Clampet's or Sanford and Sons. Jason and I got the pleasure of going out of town for the night to a friend's wedding on Ft. Myer's Beach. We hadn't seen Dru for a long time so it was nice to catch up, have a few drinks and enjoy some quiet time w/ my husband. Even though I was jipped of my nap and couldn't sleep worth a shit. We never have any pics of Jason and I so I made sure to take a few even though they aren't very good. They will do for now.

That was on the way to the wedding in the car.. as if we were a bunch of highschool kids or something..ha..

Not too happy w/ that one,but oh well...

That's about all I will bore you with the Wedding stuff. When we got back our cousin's Billy and Brandy with their kids Jorden and Tristen came down before going to Disney World and we hung out with them a little bit.
Oh.. and during this time.. Tristen came running out to where the boys were with out her diaper (she ran away from her mama when she was changing her) and leave it to my boys to have something to say.. Colby started running around yelling "Naked Butt" while Carson as loud as humanly possible asked Tristen "Where did your weiner go". Apparently he didn't realize that she didn't have one of those. So ... after a nice explaination, Carson decided to draw a girl w/ NO Weiner but a SLIT in her private area on the big dry erase board that we were all playing pictonary on. Nice huh? I am in for some interesting years w/ these boys. I didn't get many pics and none of us adults.. Just a few of the kids. Here is the boys playing playstation and cracking themselves up.

There's Jorden, Colby and Carson.. Tristen was playing w/ dolls or something.. ;-)
Colby loves his Grandma and here is a priceless pic of him with her. We don't get enough pics of the kids and their grandparents.

I suppose since Carson is so big and all he has decided he needs to take showers in the stand up shower in our room. He also learned how to make interesting things w/ his way over due for a haircut hair.

and..........meet the newest member of our family....... LOLA FAY GUZIK. Yes, Carson gave her all of her names. She wondered on our doorstep the night before Tropical Storm Fay was coming through our County so she got an appropriate Middle Name. Lola.. who knows where that came from. Probablly Zoey 101 since that's what we watch here on the Disney Channel. She is a blessing, lovable, fun and a good cat and mostly she is able to handle a house w/ some crazy boys and a german shephard..


I suppose that's all for now... I will post again as soon as I come up with something interesting or my boys create a sharable moment. Hope you all are enjoying reading my mess and have a wonderful week. As always.. you can never give enough hugs. and....... something I am working on:::: Forgiving Others for things they may have done. You have to be able to forgive someone in order to be forgiven yourself.
Good Night All!!!!! ((((HUGS)))) Jules

Lightening Storms & Swimming Boys

We had an adventerous weekend. After being more stressed out than humanly possible at Walmart trying to pick up our pool on Friday night with a 2 year old who had NO nap and felt he needed to scream the whole 35 minutes I had to wait for the Site to Store Pickup person to come. The plumber fixed our shower which was only broke for lets see.. ummm 4 yrs and we finally go the pool set up. Throughout that whole process, Jason and I managed to get shocked or struck whatever it may be by lightening. We are ok and the pool is ready to swim in. Carson got in for a few minutes tonight and didn't have his floaties on. He can touch and I was standing right there so I said go for it buddy.. Swim just like you do w/ your floaties on. He tried it and viola..... Carson is swimming under the water and on top w/ no floaties. We are so proud of him! He was so scared just a few months ago and now is swimming like a fish. He loves it! I will upload and post pics tomorrow. For now, I will answer Emily's Random Thursday questions on this Monday evening. While Colby is in Time out for screaming...

1. When showering- in what order do you wash and clean yourself, including hair? Were you taught or did you perfect your own strategy??
~I wet myself, then shampoo my hair & rinse, then apply conditioner and leave it on while I, wash my body, shave if I decide to do so that time, then rinse my hair out.

2. Who is the biggest gossip in your family?
~I know there are some behind the doors talkers, but what family doesn't have them? I am sure I have done my fair share of "venting" or talking as well. Can't really put my finger on one person other than my Grandma.. she was real bad.

3. Who is the most influential person in your life right now?
~I can't really think of one person.

4. Have you ever been constipated, and if so what did you do?
~Weird question, but I'll answer.. while I was prego I got constipated from all the iron in the pre-natals. Took a stool softener and it worked like a charm.

5. What reality TV Show would you want to be on right now?
~Family Feud, I love that show..

6. Do you have a certain word or phrase you always use that you are aware of? If not- ask your friends/ family for the answer...
~I am known for saying "Yeah" but it is a drawn out Yyeeaahhh, IDK, Can't really type how it sounds.I didn't know I did it so often till I started getting laughed at a mimiced.

7. What video game would you challenge your friends to for a $1,000,000 prize.
~Some of the friend Guitar Hero ( I am not good, but better than them) others Mario Brothers. I learned to play that w/ the 2 Emily's on the base. Emily Horn was the coolest because she had a nintendo before any of us.

8. Out of all the people you know- who would you vote for President?
~Our friend Adam. He is a political junky and study's this stuff. He gets facts and sorts out what's best.ha!

9. If you were President- what would be you number 1 change? And who would be your VP??
~More help for the working /middle class families. I don't think there is enough financial and health insurance help for those of us who work and have kids to raise. As far as VP goes, I don't have a clue. I am not very political.

10. What is your favorite- cheeseiest- movie of all times?
~I am going to second Emily's response w/ Back to the Beach-OMG I love that movie. Pretty in Pink, and Sixteen Candles.

~Bonus Question~ What is the weirdest game you ever made up to play when you were a child, an original home-made that makes you laugh to this day?
*Not really a game, but we use to have a bike club that we made up and played everyday*

I will go for now. If I feel froggy, I'll upload some pics. Jason is going fishing to the Keys this weekend which means I get a girl night away soon.. Woo hooo..
