THE DRAMA, AT 6 YEARS OLD!!
Tonight Taylor was finishing up her essay about owls. We were looking on the computer for some facts about owls. Well we put one on and "It's a Small World" was playing in the back ground. C.J. told me that it made him sad so I needed to turn it off. I turned it down and Hailey wanted to know what we were listening to, so silly me, turned up back up and C.J. burst into tears "I miss Disneyland". This went on for 10 minutes. I am always telling Chuck that he has warped C.J.'s mind with the whole Chevy Ford thing, and he looked at me tonight and said "and you think that I have warped his mind". It was funny the first 3 minutes and then it was not so funny after that. I told him that we would not ever be able to go again if he did not stop crying. He stopped a minute later. Good times at the HARDMAN'S

WHAT A GREAT FALL BREAK!!
Well instead of getting caught up on my house and laundry I decided to play the whole 4 days that we were off for fall break. It started with Tuesday, first trip to SLC. Chucks great uncle died so we went and had a flying trip down to the viewing. Wednesday Taylor Ann and I went on a field trip to This is the Place. I had gone there when Hailey was in 4th grade, and we just kinda wandered around. This time we went to 4 diffrent places there. When we got there, there was a person pretending to be living in 1864 (I really can not remember the day I just threw one out). We went and visited the black smith. He showed them how they had to make things out metal, he made a leaf and all of the kids where so amazed. Then we went to the hand carts. The lady told them that they had to walk from salt lake to Disneyland and back to salt lake pulling the handcarts. I think that it really made the kids think about how long they had to pull it. Then she showed them a mountain that they had to come down and they all about died. They got to pull the wagons around for a minute. Next we went to the school. The lady there was so cute. She made them line up and then the girls went in and curtsied and then the boys bowed to her. Every time she asked a question they had to stand up and put their hands together before they could answer. Last but not least was the dancing room. The kids all had to partner up (Kyler watched for where Taylor was and he went and lined up with her) so they danced and had a great time. Taylor and I had a great time together. I love field trips and we did not have one puker on the bus this time. Thank heavens.
On Thursday Mom, Dad, Katie and her kids, Mandie and her kids and me and my kids all went to SLC to play. We went to Fat Cats, (the 1970 bowling alley was much better). Next we Chuck-a-rama. LOVE THAT PLACE. Went to watch Wall-e WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY. Went to the mansion and slept about as good as nothing. The next day dad and mom took the big kids to Lagoon, and Katie Mandie and I took the little ones and shopped. Went to sizzler and then went shopping again. THANKS AGAIN MANDIE!!!!
On Saturday Chuck and I got to go to the Anniversary Inn. We had the best time ever. We have not been out like that for 13 years. We stayed in the Romeo and Juliet room. LOVED IT. So needless to say we had a busy weekend but it was all worth it because I had the time of my life all weekend long.
Thanks again everyone for the great time.

WE WOKE UP TO SNOW!!!
I am really bummed because we woke up to snow this morning. We took Grandma Marjie to dinner tonight and she said that we were supposed to get 5 inches before it was over. I am not really happy. Plus I have a rotten cold and it has kicked my bum!!!
Nothing really has gone on to much, but we have decided to put a wooden porch in the front over the cement. I am always afraid that someone will trip and fall on it. So I hope that it will look OK, I have to see something before I can get it into my mind, so I hope that it works.
I wanted to get some flowers planted before the snow hit but I guess that I will not until it melts and is warmer. We will see. I have big plans.
The kids and Chuck are doing good, we are looking forward to a 3 day week next week. We will have Thursday and Friday off. Thank heavens.

I AM STILL SO EMBARRASSED!!!
So I will start off saying that I did get my painting finished this weekend. I love it!!! I was afraid that it was going to make my room to dark but it looks really good. I am way excited to have it done to. It only took me 2 weeks to do it. Yea Me!!!
Well today I was teaching PE to the little kindergatners today, (I do it every 3rd week so if any body has any good ideas let me know)any who I was getting ready to turn around and there was someone in my way and my legs started to twist into each other and in slow motion I started to fall. I knew that I was going to fall hard on the cement because I could not get my legs under me, (can you feel for me already)? So as I went down I skinned my knee my hip hit after my knee which I think hit the hardest I fall onto my back and my flippen glasses fall off of my face because I fell so hard. I am so laughing right now. I looked up at all of the kids looking at me and one little boy named Blake looked at me semi laughing and he goes "Are you O.K. Mrs. Hardman?? I said I was fine and I was up within 1/2 second I think!! I looked around to see who watch me eat crap and then I looked at my knee it was all skinned up and on the verge of bleeding, but let me tell you tonight my whole body is sore. My hip is killing me and the cords in my legs hurt when I walk. I might had to take a IB 800 and go to bed with ice packs on my body. I think that it hurt my pride a lot more than it hurt me but holy cow how embarrassing it was!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY C.J.
Well today buddy is 6 years old!!! That is so crazy to me. I swear I was just in the hospital having him.
So this is how my day unfolded. Chuck went and woke up CJ at 5:00 a.m. to give him his birthday present. Which was a BB gun. NEVER FEAR, AN ADULT WILL BE WITH HIM AT ALL TIMES. I was sooooo tired and I did not want want to get up, so after Chuck left to work and I got Hailey off to basketball I went back to bed for a hour bad idea. I should never do that because I am so much more tired than I would have been if I would not have gone back to sleep. So any who, I went and got my hair cut and then came home and finished icing CJ's cupcakes, then we were off to school/work. But before that we made a pit stop to Chevron and yes he did announce his birthday there and he did get a free cookie. (I do not know how free it was because I buy enough stuff there to pay their power bill). After school, we came home and Grandma Marjie came up to tell Cj happy birthday and she visited for a while so we did not get gone until about 4:30. Then we were off the Fat Cat's. We were so excited to go there and bowl. He has looked forward to this for months. We get down there and the man says to us we do not have any lanes open tonight. We were all crushed.!!!! The man that was working there told us that there was another bowling place just a few blocks down the road. So we get a pizza while we are there and then go to "Sue Rich" Bowling Alley. When we pulled up I was a little bit scared to walk in there. I am so not going to lie about that. I kinda stall in the car for a minute and Chuck finally walks around the car and must have seen my look on my face and says, "We are here to bowl not buy the place". So I climb out of the car and we walk in there. The place smelt Stael. I swear it had not been used for a long time. I almost felt like the movie "CARS". I felt like this was the in place 20 years ago and then fat cats moved in so no one came to this one. Then we come in and it was like people are here. It was kinda funny. The poor m an that was there had no teeth. But he was nice enough. We bowled and it was really fun. CJ got a strike all on his own. Taylor was getting a little bit upset that her little brother was winning her, so when she got a strike she did the splits right in the middle of the bowling ally. Mind you we were the only ones there. Chuck came in first with a total of 161, Hailey came in 2nd with a total of 111, I came in 3rd with 105, CJ got a 90 and Poor Taytor Ann got a 88. She was not really happy. It was funny because when Hailey did a good job she did the splits and she could not get up because she hurt her cord in her leg, then silly me, got a spare and I thought for some reason that I was 9 again and did the splits too. I think that it pulled my leg muscle in the back. Hailey and I were laughing our guts out. Chuck did not know what the heck was going on.
I am always glad for birthdays I think because that is our time to go and do something as a family. Not that we do not do things as a family, but it is relaxing to just do something not rushing thru things.
Happy birthday buddy.
I love you!!!!
