Funny commercial

Night Flight Extravaganza

So Saturday night, we attended the Night Flight out at the Longview airport. It's inside an airplane hangar. It was decorated soooo beautifully. Basically it's a fundraiser for the Tatum seniors. I don't know how much this year earned, but one year each kid received $1500 towards a scholarship. I think it's a wonderful thing! They have silent auctions, a live auction, and other games in between. We got to eat Johnny Cace's and enjoy free wine, margaritas and beer all night long! Plus, it's a formal event, so we get to get all dressed up. This mom of 2 needed that! Well, here's a few pics, sorry about the quality, my camera's flash broke :(

Trip to the ZOO!

So today Jaxon's class had a field trip to the zoo. I decided I wanted to go with him. So I wrote a letter asking the teacher for details and she told me and said she'd see me there. Well, I decided to invited my bestie Becca, and Jaisey Lynn's bestie, Mikayla. So, off we go, all 4 girls in the Aztek! On the way, a sweetheart Kilgore cop decided to present me with a cute little pink piece of paper... freakin jerk. I can honestly say, I've been pulled over quite a few times, and have NEVER-EVER seen what a warning ticket looks like. (Only seen other peeoples) I always get the ticket, and I've tried every attempt of talking, flirting, crying my way out of it. So, we get set back that much, already 45 mins late as it is. We get to the zoo, walk all the way across the zoo and up a huge hill, and see Jaxon and his class. Then his teacher hands me a paper and shows me which kids I'll have in my "group". I'm like hmmm... ok. Didn't have a clue I'd be a helper, but cool, I'll take it, gladly! So off go me & the crew. It was a lot of fun, really. Jaisey Lynn and Mikayla really enjoyed it too. Here's a slideshow of the trip!

Halloween

So, it has come, our 6th Halloween with Jax and 2nd with Jaisey Lynn. Last year, he was a vampire, and Jaisey was a cute little pea in the pod :D

So this year, Jax is Ironman, and Jaisey is Little Red Riding Hood. I'm going to put listick on her and everything! She's gonna be such a doll! Jax WAS going to wear a hand me-down cool dead guy thing from Austen, and was going to return the costume to Target, save money!! Well, I did not inform our little guy of this change in decision. So needless to say, that day he ripped into the package and was gonna try it on. So, looks like he will without doubt be Ironman! And I attempted putting lipstick on Jaisey tonite, to test out how hard it would be, and yeah... it's gonna be a challenge. I am going to have to use my staining colorstay kind, or else it'd last like 1.5 minutes ;) So, we'll see how that turns out.

I'm really excited to take them trick-or-treating tho. We adults decided to completely avoid all parties and going out this Halloween. I have to go all out when I get costumes, so it gets kinda pricey! And we should save money, so hence our all-about-the-kids Halloween 08!! Feels better this way, anyway.
