Ready to Cheer on the Bulldogs tonight!!

GO DAWGS!!

Tim Hawkins and CheeBurger CheeBurger!

Yesterday we went to see Tim Hawkins in concert in Huntsville.  There was 30 of us from our church that left right after church and caravan-ed to Huntsville.  Grant and Madison couldn't wait to see him.  I was really excited too, and couldn't wait to see him in person instead of You Tube or on a DVD.  The place was sold out and we got their early to get in line to pick our seats so we could be close!  I laughed so hard I cried numerous times.  When I left the 2 hour show my sides were literally hurting from laughing so much!  His jokes hit so close to home....   Here are a couple of clips I got from youtube that are funny.  There are tons out there and if you have hours to kill look him up!

After our show we left and we were all starving!!  We headed to Cheeburger Cheeburger!  Wow they have great burgers, Eric said it is really close to Five Guys (which I have never been to).  We got there and it is just on a strip mall little diner and we walk in and the guy says do you need a table for four.....  I said actually we have around 25-30 more coming!  He looked around and needless to say we kind of took over the place and rearranged tables all over the place.    The next thing was ordering!  Well on the menu they have a ONE POUND hamburger and if you eat it all you get your picture made to hang on the Wall of Fame!  Well Eric wanted to do it and he ate the whole thing!!!  It was great!
This is Cheeburger Cheeburger's website if you are not familiar with the restaurant.

I got some pictures to share with you from Cheeburger Cheeburger.

 This was the ONE POUNDER before Eric tackled it!

This is the picture that will be on the Wall of Fame!

Madison wanted to take the picture with her daddy!

She was proud of her daddy!

We had a great trip!  Can't wait to see Tim again sometime in Concert!

He needs to come to Tennessee!!

Preppy B's

Madison has come into a new adventure this year!  She has become a CA Cheerleader.  She will be cheering at all the "Varsity" games.  She is loving being a cheerleader!  I think since she had started Gymnastics last year, that has really helped her in her decision to become a cheerleader.  This is the first year of the "Preppy B's" with the varsity girls.  They have always had the cheerleaders that cheer all the Saturday football games with the younger football players, but this is a separate division with the varsity girls.  The Varsity cheerleaders picked a younger one to be their "Mini me Cheerleader".  They will be in the Homecoming parade with them and lots of fun extra things!  Danielle Chase picked Madison as her Mini cheerleader, I had Danielle in 4th grade and they live down the road from us.  She made a connection with Madison immediately!  They all get to work with all cheerleaders learning cheers, it is like one big family!

They had their First Game last night against Ezell Harding Christian School and WE WON! They really cheered their Football team on!   The Cheerleaders did Awesome and Madison had so much fun. I have a few pictures from the Game lastnight and Cheer camp today.

What a cute cheerleader!

 Madison and Danielle!

Go Dawgs!

Way to go Madison!

 Madison at cheer camp today practicing stunting for 

a cheer-leading routine coming up soon!

 She saw me up in the balcony and they told her to look

at me and smile for a picture!  You look great Madison!

 She went up part way with her 3 spotters!

 Another shot with spotters and going up 1/2 way.

She went the full way up and LOVED every minute of it!  

I think I was a nervous wreck up in the balcony watching!

She would get down and say "lets do this again!"  She 

can not wait to go back and practice stunting again!

Back to School!

Well, today was our first day back to school!  We got to start off with a 1/2 day and then start with our full day tomorrow!  Grant and Madison had a great day of school!  Madison has been ready to go back for about a week!  She was excited to see all her friends!  Grant is now in 5th grade and Madison is in 2nd!  They are growing up too fast!!  I have a picture of each with their teacher!

 Grant with his 5th grade teacher Mrs. Cross!

He is ready for a great year!  

Madison with her teacher Ms. Pullen.

She is so happy to be at school!

They both had a great day and 

ready for a full day tomorrow!

Inservice Week!

Well this week is officially the last week of summer for Grant and Madison.  I have had a full week of inservice.  I will finish up my inservice tomorrow.  Grant and Madison have had a fun-filled week with the Grandparents!  Monday they ate breakfast at home and then headed to Burger King for lunch!

 The King and Queen!

Then they headed out to Chuck E. Cheese.  

They played lots of games and had a big time!

 By the coin totals looks like they had a lot of fun!

 These were the prizes they choose with their tickets!

 A close up picture of Madison's puppy she got.

It looks cute!  I like this one since we won't have to feed it!

After they left Chuck E. Cheese they headed down the road

to Krispy Kreme and ate donuts and watched them

from start to finish make donuts!  Yummy!

 They are enjoying their donuts!

 These were the ones they had left for me and Eric!  :-)

 Watching the making of the donuts!

 Madison is really watching!

On Wednesday they went to Lynnville and ate at a place called 

"Soda Pop Junction".  Grant said they had the best burgers 

around!  Grant is a pretty picky eater and if he says it was 

good you know it must have been fantastic!

 Madison had a salad with Ranch!

She looked happy!

 Grant can't wait to dive in to his burger!

 After they ate they went and visited the train museum that 

was across the street from the "Soda Pop Junction".

 They got to get inside a train that was outside for kids to look around on.

Today they went to watch Ice Age 3 in 3D with the grandparents and 

they really enjoyed the movie!  Thanks to Danny and Carolyn for 

keeping Grant and Madison entertained all week!  Tomorrow they are 

planning on going Bowling since they have 2 free games everyday till Oct.

Next week Madison starts 2nd Grade and Grant starts 5th!!!  

They are growing up way too fast!!!
