New Resolution and SICKNESS

So, since I have fallen off the blogging wagon, AGAIN. I have decided that I am just going to start from today and more forward. The year is flying by. October is all but over.

Life at work is CRAZY. Everyone is sick and everyone is visiting us at CAPC. Since there is so much sickness, my boys could not be left out. On Monday Chase started running fever. He had a cough and it was nasty. At first we thought he just had an ear infection, but as the day progressed so did his fever. As high as 102 for him.......

On Tuesday, I got a call from my family UPS man and sickness had fallen on him hard and fast. By the time he got home he was miserable and had fever above 102. Just as I was getting these two guys well........Dawson and I were eatind dinner and he asked to go home. When we got home his was at 102 and would peak about 104 during the night. AGH!!!!!

As of this moment, Greg and Chase are on the mend and will go to work and school tomorrow. Dawson is still running fever and will hopefully be well after the weekend.

The boys are going to start basketball soon. So get ready for pics and stats.

I am not sure if you guys remember but the boys and I are going to Disney World. We actually on have 3 weeks. We have our airplane tickets, our resort rooms, and park tickets. We are all very excited. Since Greg is not able to got with us, UPS is very busy the next few weeks. We got him tickets to a Dallas Cowboy football game, the first weekend we are going to be gone. I don't think he will miss us too much.

Baby Sister's Birthday

When I woke up this morning, the first thing I thought of was my baby sister. Today is her birthday, and she has been great about blogging about our family members birthdays this year. Since I am a blogger slacker, I was concerned who might blog about her. I wanted to show the love too so I am going to attempt it. I know I am not as whitty or write as great as she does, so please excuse me.

Lindsey is the most spoiled child I know. And most people would say I helped develop that part of her. When Lindsey was born I was a pre-teen and I thought she was going to cramp my style.....Well, little did I know that she would sleep in my twin bed, cruise Military Road with me, and become one of my best friends.

We have had cross words, fights, shared tears, disappointments, and many great accomplishments. She was there when I graduated Nursing School, she was there when both the boys were born, I saw her graduate college. And now I am watching her become a GREAT young women.

Lindsey and I have shared many things, we have not and will not share with anyone else. We have incorporated each other into the others lives in every way. My real friends are friends with Lindsey, they love her like I do.

They are few people that meet her and do not immediately LOVE her. She just has that effect on people, and some times I hate it. You walk in a room and everyone looks your way, but they are not looking at you, especially if Lindsey is standing beside you. At times, that works to my advantage. We get seated at resturants earlier, we get free drinks, all kinds of benefits that having a gorgegous sister brings to the extended family.

I miss her ALOT. I wish she lived next door. There are lots of times, I wish she could just come and pick me up and drive to Sonic and talk about our days.

Ninny, as she is known at our house is having a Birthday today. And I want her to know that I love her very much.

Our DNA may not totally match, but God knew I needed her to be in my life along time ago.

I LOVE YOU SIS. Have a great day.

Blog Loser

Ok , I know I have been a HUGE loser on the blog thing. Maybe now with school starting we will have a better routine. Although, I am not sure. The boys are both playing TWO sports right now.

Chase has been begging to play flag football for a couple of years and I have steared him toward soccer. But this year I gave in. He goes tomorrow for his evaluation. He is also playing some tournaments with his baseball team. Dawson is sticking with soccer another year, which I am excited about, but he is also playing Fall baseball. So with church and practices we pretty much have something going everynight.

School also started this week......Dawson is in third grade. Which is very hard for me to believe. 8 years old and in third grade I AM WAY OLD!!!!! Chase is starting first grade. Both boys seem excited about their classes. And we have even made the schedule to bath and bed this week with little argument.

We are gearing up for our trip to Disney. Only a few more months and we are Florida bond! The boys are getting excited and so is JoJo. More to come on the trip.

Hope this makes the Blog haters happy!!!!!

Baseball, Baseball, and more Baseball

Well, that pretty much sums up why I have not posted in like a month. Both boys are playing on two teams right now. They play in the Optimist League in Benton and in a couple of tournaments....I know that is WAY too much. I can read everyone's mind. We are already talking about how we can fix that problem next year.

Chase is playing with the same coach from last year, and is loving it. He plays pitcher and does pretty well, as long as he is medicate :).

Dawson is playing third base and throwing runners out at first. So he is going great too.

I dont have any pictures yet to post from the tournament teams, but we will have lots of time for that. Sorry I have been gone so long.

Zoo Trip

So, I decided since I have to work EVERY day during Spring Break, I made an on the FLY plan and took the boys to the Zoo on Friday. Chase had been begging to go and the weather was nice so we just decided to do it. We also took Blake from across the street. We picked him up from Daycare and were on our way.

The boys had a GREAT time. The zoo was not very crowded so we could take our time and the boys could walk by themselves without having to be RIGHT next to me. And probably the best thing is that we saw lots of animals. Times before we have gone there and all the animals were locked inside.

The boys found these Bald Eagles as soon as we got there. Chase was pretty excited about the birds. He is definatly my nature boy. He loves to learn about science, all types.

The boys rode on the train and got $10 drinks. But hey, is that not what outings are all about.

As we got around the Zoo the boys got a little wild. They were all tired, so to the car we headed.

All three of them had to try hard to stay awake during the 25 minute car ride home.

I think all in all the day was a good one. We had a great time and made good memories.

Talent Show 2009

So, the Howard Perrin Talent Show was this past week. Both Ramsey's boys had little acts. Chase performed with some other kids from Mrs. Wards class. He had a difficult time deciding if he was going to do the show or not. He did not want people to laugh at him and then when he decided he was going to do the show, after the rehearsal night he got scared because he realized there would be more people at the actual show. But he got up there and did GREAT. The video is from the dress rehearsal night, that is why he has baseball pants on. We had a game as soon as he did his practice.


Dawson had an act with 10 other 2nd grade boys. They dressed up like the Village People and performed to YMCA. They were a crowd favorite. I am some what surprised that Dawson does this Talent Show thing. He is mostly reserved, but when he is dressed up with his guys, he acts like a different kid.


The teachers of Howard Perrin also got into the act at the Talent Show. Some of them are hard to recognize due to their GREAT costumes......

Over a month.....

Well, When I logged on this morning I noticed it has been over a MONTH since I blogged. And don't worry my sister has been wearing me out about it. I am not sure how to catch up on the last month. I think I will do just a generic post today, because I am at work, oops! I will try to get pictures and maybe do a post for each boy over the weekend.

March has been a busy month for us already. We started baseball, which means at least one practice per boy per week, and some weeks they each had two. I am definetaly going to live at Holland ballpark for the next few weeks.

Greg and I celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary and Greg's 40th birthday last week. We went out to eat with our dear friends Matt and Cindy. We are not big birthday and holiday gift givers for each other, we save that for the boys. But we did get a Wii fit, and said it was for Greg and Dawson since they both have birthdays in March.

We had the Howard Perrin talent show this week, and I hope to get pictures and Video up soon. Both boys were in the show. Chase did a song with his Kindergarden class, and Dawson had a group of friends, 11 second grades, that did a dance to YMCA.

The boys are starting Spring Break today and our life long friends from Texas are here visting and I hope to get pictures of the crew together posted soon.

I hope this will at least get the Blog stalkers off my back. I will try to update more soon.
