boys are just no fun sometimes

So last Sat was D.J's 16th b-day and I was so excited for him. you know sweet 16 big milestone right. Well he was an old fuddy duddy about it. He showed no excitement about it at all. The most excitement I got was when Devanee came over to spend the day with him. I even got him a nice present thinking he would be excited about that, well all he said was nice, thanks. What is it with boys they are so not emotionally excited as I think they need to be. Maybe it is just a teenage thing. But when it comes to football or basketball Alex and Braxton can show some excitement, why can't it be when I want it? Can football and basketball be that much more exciting than I am. can't be that, it must be something else. I just need to figure it out. We are one weekend away from having our saturdays back. Flag football games will end this weekend for us and as much as I enjoy watching them play I will so enjoy sleeping in on sat mornings again and staying home for the day. I know that sounds so boring and my kids hate it when I am home all the time but when your gone to work all week for what can seem like all day it is nice to just relax and stay home on the weekends.

Only 21 more days till my school is out and 23 more days till I am on break. sleeping in here I come and getting my garden planted. I didn't plant one last year and I missed it. I am also excited to put in the flower garden in my front yard and hopefully get my bathroom redone this summer along with our trips. turning out to look like a busy summer but right now I can't wait!!!

spring has sprung

I ventured out of my office today to see the sun shinning. I was so excited since it was snowing earlier this week. I have my fingers crossed that springs has finally arrived and it will stay for more than a few days.
Easter was pretty nice here. We went to a football game came home and barbequed and sat out on the swing and enjoyed the afternoon before the clouds rolled in and we were off to another football game. The kids got clothes for easter as to which none of them were very happy about except Nikieshia and I think she wishes she could have picked them out herself but luckily Kohls was having a sale that day and we had a good time there.
We are counting down until school is out and we are off to play for the summer. if you ask me it can't come soon enough.
We got our family reunion assignments last week and I am wondering where Jay comes up with these things? I have never heard of what we are assigned to it could prove to be an interesting program if everyone elses assignments are like mine. Teenagers are not alot of fun to get involved in interesting things like this, so we shall see.
