Life!

Life at the Alford house is sometimes crazy. The last couple of weeks have been typical crazy. The kids are all back in school now. Jared and Jessica started full time on Monday. I have some pictures of their first day of school that I will post once I down load them from my camera. Alecia got sick and I listened to a lot of talk about the swine flu. So I kind of freaked out and took her to the doctor to make sure it wasn't the flu. We were blessed and the flu test came back negative so no worry there. The elementary that the little kids go to have had four confirmed cases of the swine flu so I am really praying that they will not get sick.

Home work at our house is really stressful. Krystal is in 4th grade and here in Louisiana that means a major testing year. She will do okay but they give way to much homework for our little ones. She has homework in every subject almost every night.

I am getting back into the swing of thing and will start volunteering at the school library tomorrow. I am also helping out with the PTC pizza day at the Jr high and pizza day and quarter day at the elementary. I am Jared's class room mom and I am volunteering as a band mom for Brandon. Alecia and Katie are in choir at their schools so if i am needed there then I will be helping too. Katie wants to be on the pep squad and we are trying to figure out if it will be possible. David want's me to start coming into the office twice a week to help out with the books. This is all on top of trying to keep up with all the other aspects of being a stay at home mom. HMM maybe I am asking for trouble. LOL

Anyway we are all doing well and I am looking forward to all the upcoming events.
