Locke Family Reunion

Just got back from the Locke family reunion. It was also Nanaw's 90th birthday! It was so nice to see her and everyone else. The Locke's are all so nice. I wish we got to see them more often. I feel pretty brain dead, so this is all I have for now, but here is a slide show of the reunion!

Alex's new hobby is cooking. He loves to bake! I have no idea where he gets it, except maybe it is because I don't and he loves to eat! Today he baked Brad a birthday cake..even though Brad's birthday was in April! The cake was yummy though:) He is actually talking about possibly going to culinary school after he finishes high school.


By the way, Alex is doing great at his Pizza Hut job. He is excited because his boss has been very complimentary and is giving him more and more hours. Yesterday we took his paycheck and got him his first savings and checking account. His plan is to put the majority of his paycheck in savings so that he can get a car at the end of this school year. I am very proud of him for that.

We have all been very sick...except Alex who has the best immune system of anyone I know. We are finally feeling better. I actually lost my voice...which is the worst possible thing that could ever happen to me!

Here is a picture of the boys this week, home sick with their daddy!


I have my first Algebra test next week. I hope I do okay. I spent about an hour and a half on ONE problem last night until I finally figured it out! I think I need to spend some time in the Math lab before I take the test. My mind is swimming with visions of numbers, letters, fractions, formulas and word problems! YUCK..at least I know when I finish this class and College Algebra I can do ANYTHING!

Noah has been very sick. We took him to the doctor and it is not the flu, so that is good. He is so sick though! I feel sorry for him. Now I am sick, too. I feel bad, but not nearly as bad as he feels. Although with a little children's Motrin, he feels great! Hopefully today is the last day of it.

Yesterday was my friend, Carrissa's baby shower. Noah went to Granny and Papa's for a while until Brad could pick him up from there. Noah loves to go to Granny and Papa's! The shower was fun, but I started feeling sick while I was there. Carrissa is having a girl and it was so fun watching her open all of her gifts. So much pink! Here is a picture of me with Carrissa.


When I got home, Ricardo came over to pick up Ricky who was over for the day hanging out with Cameron, and Ricardo stayed and watched some football game with Brad. I actually went upstairs pretty quickly because I felt so bad. I gave Noah Motrin when I got home, so he felt great and played downstairs riding the new bike his daddy got him.

Cameron is doing great this year by the way. Last year was so hard with him being sick and not making any friends at the new school. This year he has made a ton of friends and they come over almost everyday. They are such cute kids and I am so happy Cameron is happy!
