First day of 7th grade

Well I said I would come back with photos of Sam's first day.. and here you are.. This the front of the school.. and if you look close you can see Sam with his friend Nat.

Here is Sam and Nat in the parking lot. They both look nerves and excited about this new day.

I don't have anymore photos for the great day.

What a BIG BOY!!

I took Nathan to the Doctors office today and he had to get some blood drawn.... That BIG guy did better then I. He sat all by himself and let the guy poke him and draw the blood. Then Nathan said " awww thats going to make me better... Right MOM!" What a sweetie I have. Thank you Jesus for blessing us with Nathan.

I took my camera with me but forgot to take a picture of my prave young man.

First day of 7th grade

Sam started Middle school today. felt very wierd to see my middle baby at Middle school. I'm so thankful that its a charter school. I did take a few photos but I don't like the way they look.. I will be going to pick him up and will take more.. and I will let you know what Sam thought of his first day...lol

Oh I can tell you he was frecking out last night.. He asked me to pray for him many times..lol

What a crazy camping trip...

LOL.. I can laugh about it now.. but at the time I could not.. and you will understand once I finish sharing about our camping trip...lol

So we left Thursday afternoon. We got to the campsite thinking we are getting our favorite site (#50).. Well nope.. We drove around about 10 to 15 mins trying to decide.. once we chose our site (#109).. We started setting up. Nathan, Sam and myself where taking the fire wood out of the trailer.. Well the next thing I know Sam got mad and throw a piece of firewood and it hit me on my right foot.. Well after we finished setting up camp. The guys went for a bike ride and my mom and I started making dinner.. Well I thought I had one of the burns off and I sat the lid on it.. Well I went to move the lid off and yeapers.. I burned not 1 finger but 3 fingers. Then on friday morning, my mom was getting out of her tent and fell and hurt her knee. Then that late morning Sam and Mark (our friend) went for a bike ride. Well they came back with Sam all hurt.. Sam had a bad bike crash going down hill. They where racing down a hit and Sam's foot came off the peddle. I'm so thankful he was wearing his helmet or it could have been so much worse. LOL.. oh and thats not all.. Then Saturday Nathan fell and got hurt.. He almost fell into the firepit and yes a fire was going.. Then Saturday night we where sitting around the fire and Mark was showing us how a old glow stick will re~charge and start glowing again once its in the fire, and put it in the fire and it exploded all over me. on my face, some got in my mouth, all over my sweatshirt. it was crazy and wild. As you can imagine I was so ready to come home..lol

we did have a fun time in the middle of all this.. We had a blast Thursday and friday we just stayed at camp.. Some friend of our happen to be camping at the same camp groundso we got to spend Saturday am with them playing cards. Saturday afternoon we went to the ocean and had fun. Sunday we went to the redwoods and came home..

I will be back with photos
