Finals Week

Finals Week is here this means stress headaches and dreams. I'm happy to know that my Stats Final is a take home final, and we get to work with a partner. For my Law class we get to have a case cheat sheet, and for art it is a Final Project. 

I love my art final, it is supposed to be a self portrait but she likes us to push the limits. My self portrait is a tree (me) with the roots showing, in the roots are words and pictures that make me, me. 

Summer Is Coming!

Basketball has ended, Canyon got his medal and some toys. Baseball begins, we had our first game on Saturday, Canyon played back catcher for both teams because the blue team did not have enough players. He was beyond worn out and had to take a break in the shade.

We forgot to practice hitting with Canyon before the season started, so five minutes before the game started me and Jared took Canyon aside and practiced with him. After a few hits he was a pro again. Canyon is on the red team this year, it's the first time he isn't on the blue team since he started playing. 

Saturday was also prom for Pottsville. Since it was a pretty day I suggested we go to the lake to hang out and I could get to see everyone in their beautiful prom dresses. 

Canyon has a new favorite song. Everytime it comes on he'll yell JAM and expect us to turn it up. This was the third time that Saturday that we danced to his JAM (uptown funk) 

The Storm!

The news kept sending out alerts that there was a bad storm coming to Pope County.

Then I got a call from Tech that said they would like everyone to take cover. Then moms storm warning radio came on and said that there is a high chance of hail. So we decided to hide Sparki from it. It is a good thing that Sparki is so small and could fit. 

Special Olympics

Canyon went to Special Olympics for shot put and standing long jump. 

He got second in shot put and fifth in standing long jump. He is now in the big boy group 16-21 so it is a lot harder for him to get gold. 

We were told that he did not qualify for state Special Olympics. We are heartbroken. 

Boot Game

Jared and Jordan were asked by their Sergeant to do color guard at the Boot Game. The game is between Dardanelle and Pottsville, to raise money for military members when they come back from war.

They are both alumni of Dardanelle, so it was pretty cool. 

A girl from Dardanelle Kelli Collins sang the National Anthem. (no relation)

Jared held the American flag and Jordan held the Arkansas flag. 

Jared Pied Carlee!!

 I sent Jared to get me scantrons while I worked on Statistics with my friend Sara. 

When he came back he was all excited about something Carlee had told him.

He said if we give Carlee a dollar we get to pie her in the face!! And it is for a good cause!! 

To Pie a Phi Mu, for a dollar, they donated it to childrens hospital. 

So we went to see her and Jared paid two dollars for two pies. 

Dress Blues Photo Shoot

The Dress Blue Photo Shoot started because the boys' pawpaw wanted a picture of all of them in uniform. I got these pictures while they were attempting to all be serious for the real picture

Then Kiley and I decided to join in the fun. The boys could only be serious for so long before the personality pictures started appearing. Haha.

I also made them take a picture with their mama.
