sprucing things up a bit

So last weekend I pulled a fast one on my kids and put them all to work. We have this big flower bed in front of my house and last summer Dan and the kids took some of the dirt out of it and it has been just sitting there ever since. just this big thing of dirt with one rose bush on the side. So I decided to landscape it and last saturday was the lucky day. I made each of my kid dig a hole to plant a red bush and one more rose bush. So now we have 5 red bushes and 2 rosebushed and then put red mulch on it. It looks so good I couldn't stop bragging about it all weekend. DJ's girlfriend keeps teasing me on the way to chuch about how nice that house on the street looked with the flower garden. People can be so mean. I will have to get a picture taken and put on so you can see it. as soon as the wind stops and it is warm enough to stand outside.
Nikieshia had her 6th grade track meet this week. Dan and I went and watched it was so fun. She ran the 100 and the 4x100 and the football throw. she did great. who knew she could run. I can't remember seeing her do that voluntarily before haha.
I told you before that football was over, well it's not the boys made the play offs so we are still doing football they tell me the championship game is next week if they win this weekend. I am not sure wether or not to hope they make it or be glad if they loose. I am torn.
DJ is working on getting his drivers license. He just barely failed the written by one question earlier this week so we are going to try it again today. keep your fingers crossed for him. then all that is left is the driving portion. GO DJ!
Alex has been parked on my couch since basketball playoffs started. He is a huge Lakers fan and Braxton has been joining him since he is a Celtics fan. they sit and dis on each others teams and player. I'll be glad when the playoffs are done so I can have my TV back.
That seems to be all that is happening this week. only one more week of school then I am out for summer yea! I can't wait till our vacation I am so excited if you hadn't already guessed. so until next time...
