Treats Jarrett & I sent to Coleman & Caden in New York.

Jarrett & all of the toys and candy we sent Coleman & Caden in New York City. They are not originally from there. They are just there receiving treatment for Coleman.
Jarrett writing them a note.
He was a great sport, buying someone else toys. That is awesome that he understood and wanted to buy someone else something to cheer them up. He did want to play with them before we sent them when we got home. I did let Coleman & Caden share a sucker with Jarrett out of their bag. He appreciated that you guys.

Here is Ashley practicing her cheer for competition. Her first competition is Oct 12th in Shreveport. She also has one in November in Kenner, December in Shreveport, 2 in January, a whole weekend of competition in Feb, and a whole weekend in March if they qualify for Nationals. I will try to video with my new camera next practice and upload it so you all can see how they look. I'm amazed!
Here is my latest scrapbook page I made today. I made one for my book and one for ebay. I bought a cool new scrapbook book that has tons of ideas using fabric & ribbons. I am putting a sewing machine on my Christmas list this year b/c I have been hand sewing my pages and would love to incorporate the different stitches on my pages.

Oh here is another thing I have learned>>> How to make torn bears. Aren't they cute. But they sure do take up alot of time.
Well I'm on nights for the next two nights Mom so call me after 5pm please if you need me. Ashley's friend woke me up today so I only got 2 hours of sleep. I try to take the phone out of my room, but one of my kids always needs me when I do that and it makes me fill really bad. I will update my girl scout events later on tonight after I organize my girl scout notebook. I do know we have tons coming up. I personally can't wait until the Savannah Georgia trip in Nov 2009. It is $500/ person and we are craming tons of fun girl scout activities into 4 days. The girls will earn tons and tons of badges & see the birth place of Girl Scouts. I will let any of my girls that qualify to go know about it. You must be in the 4th grade by the time of the trip. I think only Sarah & Emily will qualify for it. I'll let you all know. They will have another trip later. Well I better go work,
Brandi
