The Frog Saga Continues...

Today at 9:16 am Kermit the frog died a lonely miserable death. Did he receive the death penalty or was he haunted by Bonnie? I guess we will never know. Zachary will be sad when he comes home from school today. We just aren't cut out to have frogs or fish. They never live long.

Savannah's 13th Birthday






Yesterday was Savannah's 13th birthday. I can't believe she is 13! We has some of the family over for chocolate cake and cookies & cream, vanilla and chocolate ice cream. Do you think we had enough ice cream? Savannah loved getting cards and phone calls from family and friends. She loved hearing Raven and Tessa talk! Her birthday list wasn't very specific, so she got cash and gift cards, so I can take her shopping for what she wants, when I am able to find gas to put in my tank. She also got Guitar Hero for her DS.
We also said our good-byes to Candace, Matt, Will, and Lily. I am not good at good-byes, but we did good. No tears! I hope all goes well with them in Utah. We will miss you! If all goes like we plan we will at least see them next fall when we take Hannah out there for school. Well, I guess that is all for now.

RIP Bonnie

Well, today at 4:45pm, Bonnie (Savannah's frog) died. She was floating upside down in the tank. We think Zachary's frog Kermit is a suspect in her murder. Savannah is sad, but what can you do? We didn't think they would live long anyway. Look out Kermit!

Aquatic Frogs



Zachary's 4th grade class studied aquatic frogs for a week and then the students were allowed to adopt them. We let Zachary adopt one, but since there were extra frogs they let Zachary bring two frogs home. Savannah wanted to get a fish in the spring. Since she didn't get the fish, Zachary was nice enough to give Savannah a frog. We have a boy and a girl. Zachary gets the boy and Savannah the girl. The girl is lighter colored. They are having fun watching them. We shall see how long they live.

Zachary's tooth...

Many people have asked about Zachary's tooth. I took him to the dentist the Monday after he chipped it. They fixed it but they said it cracked up the back of his tooth and he knocked it loose. They will check on it in 6 to 8 months.

The RHS band marching to the stands before the game. We think Hannah is the 5th one back on the near side.The RHS Band getting ready to perform. Go Hannah!


Fans running out on the field after we just won!

Last night we went to see Ravenwood High School play Brentwood Academy and of course the the RHS band play, with Hannah at the flute. We were expecting to get blown out and to go home after the half time show. Brentwood Academy is ranked third in TN and no county school had ever beaten them. It was a close game. Ravenwood was down 21-14 with the ball at their own 2 yard line with a minute and 12 seconds left in the game and one time out. They drove the length of the field and scored with 6 seconds left in the game and then completed a slant route for a 2 point conversion to win 22-21. It was Ravenwood's home opener. Go Ravenwood! I forgot my camera so Kyle took some pictures with his phone. We tried to get the score board but the lights blurred in the picture.


Bye the way thank you Kyle for helping out with the football game comentary!
