My Life is a Sitcom....

I have been told this before, and now I believe it. Been busy carting Carly to and from school and doctors appointments since her latest injury - not really anything new, but have been too busy to blog. Sorry, Shane and Kevin, but this is an update for you guys!
One day, I took the trash outside and put it in the outside garbage can. Later, Mike took Cj out to throw around the football. They heard something in the can and tipped it over. I had put the trash right on top of a little possum! (I know it starts with an "o" but this is how its spelled in GA!) - they took a picture.....
Then last week we all loaded up and headed to Georgia for my Mom's 75th birthday extravaganza! She has never had a surprise birthday party, so we pulled out all the stops! Invited 100 of her closest friends and family and got everyone together at my sister's new house to celebrate. My brother drove Mom over while we all were waiting. She drove in and saw all the cars in the driveway and on the street and thought we were having a yard sale! So funny! She also thought that my brother was taking her to eat at the Golden Corral. She was almost disappointed until we told her we had cake.....great time, and here's a picture of Mom with all the grandkids except Sam and John. From top to bottom - left to right, Daniel, Coley, Grace, Caitlin, Mikaela, Cj (trying not to do the rabbit ear thing over Nana), Carly, and Mom- aka Nana
Before the party, Mike took Cj to his first UGA football game. They had a great time and Cj even made friends with Coach Vince Dooley. He had his picture made and got autographs. Such fun!
Found out that he needs to get a little taller before he can play football at UGA. He needs to at least be able to see over the hedges!
Then it was back to Baton Rouge and back into football (gotta get ready for UGA!)
And now, tonight is Cj's best friend Alec's birthday. Its a laser tag party and Cj is so excited. I had to take his picture, because he wants to wear the hat so no one will see his red hair and shoot him with the lasers. Carly informed him if he runs fast enough it won't matter! Oh well........
