WOW!






This week Trenton is the WOW kid. Wildcat of the week. He gets to be the line leader, the teacher helper and gets to bring cool pictures of his favorite thing for the classroom bulletin board. These are a few of the pictures we sent. His favorite toys, his favorite brother his wonderful parents (gag) and his wonderful dog Karley (well maybe not the wonderful part). I hope this makes the week wonderful for him. If we can get over Monday, then we are good!

It's fall ya'll!!


Well, it is official, the Gharing's have decorated, it is fall. We decorated Patch of Heaven this weekend for fall. I have to say, I was not ready to decorate but after we got going, it looked nice. Of course, it did not feel like fall. It was a little warmer than fall like weather. (like in the 90's) Oh well, we cannot have it all!

Tennessee Division Project


Well the first 5th grade project has come and gone. Trenton had to do The division of Tennessee. Where is Tennessee divided into the 3 divisions? What is each division known for? Well....let me give you a few facts. East Tennessee= what to do there? Graceland, eat BBQ, see the glass pyramid and look for Elvis (this was Trenton's). Middle Tennessee = what to do? Watch MTSU, go to the Grand Ole Opry (Trenton had no idea what this was)and listen to country music. West Tenneessee = what to do? Go to the Smokey Mountains, see Dolly Wood, hike and what else watch Tennessee football (this was not one of Trenton's, guess who? that is right Rich). The project went well and was over and was not that painful, well maybe a little bit....

Why so long???






I just realized that I have not blogged in almost a month.....What is wrong with me? Am I getting bored with blogging? Am I tired of blogging? No, I just totally have not thought about it. Is that crappy or what? I have not even taken any new pictures. Things here at Patch of Heaven have been pretty boring. The boys are doing well in school. Both boys got their mid-semester report today, they were good. Rich is doing good, after his big birthday. Here are some pictures that I did not get on the blog from his birthday. Doesn't he look cute? He just cracks me up! The blogger is doing good. Work has been a little stressful, but at least I have a job. A job is a job....it is a job. Why cannot we win the lottery? I guess you have to play to win...
