School Shopping

We actually had a great time school clothe shopping today. Nathan and CJ were able to get quite a lot of new jeans and shirts and other necessary items for the big Thursday school time. The boys are in different schools again this year - CJ stays in Tonaquint Intermediate and Nathan moves on to Dixie Middle School. Next year they will be together again at the Middle School.

This summer kind of "dragged" on for them and they are ready to get back to seeing their friends who they haven't seen all summer - I mean you have your local neighborhood friends - but not your school friends.

My HCG came in today and so I will be starting it up again tomorrow. I went to the store and got me lot's of "fatty" foods for the next two days. This round I am doing everything right and not quitting early - we'll see just how far I can go with it.

Movie Night!

Here is the preview of the Julie & Julia movie - a real must see. Terri and I just loved it. I am a Julia Child fan and so really enjoyed the movie - apart from some very un-necessary vulgarity from the author (apparently that's what Julia Child didn't like either) I really had a fun time.

Bon Appetit!

New Posters!!!

Awesome new posters are available at realheroposters.com (just click on picture to go to website).

The new Bible series is out and these are really awesome. This one is of Joseph and is already one of my favorites. Check them out when you have the time - definitely worth the look and purchase if you can.

EYO Swim

We had an awesome time today with the 11yr old scouts (EYO). We went to the pool and San Hollow and did their 2nd Class requirements then let them swim around for fun for about 20 minutes after that. My troop (417) currently has 2 boys and the other troop (486) has 2 boys, so we do everything together and have a great time.

I (again), got to much water in my ear and couldn't hear afterwards - I will remember to get ear plugs next time - because it really does bother me. I jumped off the diving board with them about 2 times then had enough of that - they we goofed off on the slide a couple times and just had a great time - oh yeah, and they all passed the requirments. Next will be the 1st class requirements.

Afterwards we drove by McDonalds and got us all a little ice cream cone - and while driving back and eating them - one of the boys from the other troop made this comment to me: "Bro Weidman, you are just like my Dad - skinny all over and pudgy in the middle" - what?? I'm not that pudgy -- but he was right and so I am going to go back on the HCG diet and do it the right way this time - go all the way through and get rid of this "pudge"! An, 11yr old boys, gotta luv 'em!!
