My handsome young man. We are so proud of Britton, he did so great all year. I can't believe he will be in high school in a few short months!!! How old I am! Cute, but old :-)

his teachers all just love him. I always get the most wonderful compliments at parent teacher conferences, except for the inevitable "he just talks to much." He keeps all of his teachers on their toes. He was even awarded "the most challenging" by his teachers. I hope that is a good thing! He also got awarded "All around most athletic" for the 8th grade!
Britton & his girlfriend Sierra. Weird huh? I'm not sure how to deal with the whole girlfriend situation. At least she lives pretty far away. Her parents drive her from Peoria out here to Surprise because Canyon Ridge is a Technological school & she is in the gifted program.

knuckle sandwich

So Jack was being his usual loud crazy self this morning & I asked him if he wanted a knuckle sandwich for lunch. He very excitedly said "YES, I sure do! That sounds yummy!" Then over & over again he kept asking for a knuckle sandwich. Finally I said well I'd be happy to give you a knuckle sandwich but I think we're out, how about a chicken quesadilla? He was insistant about having a knuckle sandwich though. He went up to Jim and said "Daddy, I want a knuckle sandwich for lunch!" We made him a quesadilla and he practically threw a fit saying "I WANT A KNUCKLE SANDWICH PLEASE!" Poor kid, what a mean mommy i am! Wait until he starts telling everyone he gets knuckle sandwiches.
