Happy New Year!

I am updating with pictures and news.
My state cheer group ended up state runner ups... Disappointing to us because they hit their routine and it was the best it ever has been.  Cheer is so subjective.  But, on to another year.  I am very proud of them.
Luke is in Dallas with Johnny right now, he will be taking his ACT soon as he is finishing his junior year.  Gage is going from being buzz to woody to iron man to spiderman with a little wolverine thrown in to!  He is in a big superhero phase which is cute.... plus he loves toy story.
Bryan has transferred from the 414th in Joplin to a unit out of Barling (near Ft Smith).  It is a logistical training unit and supposedly non deployable, but you know the army, who knows!

I will include pics.  Most are Christmas pics, one is from the dining out, and one is of Luke, Chelsie and Gage with their gingerbread house...I hope everyone has a great new year!! Love and Peace, Jb

what, I am updating??

okay, these are my latest  children.  They are actually great kiddos and this weekend was their first competition.  They did great, with four music mistakes that really chapped my hide.... They are good kids who work really hard...I am proud of them!!!

This is pimp delicious who just turned 17!!!  Where does the time go?  I am really
proud of him and he is a good kid.  The picture below is his latest love.. Her name is Chelsie and he says
she is super cool because she doesn't like drama.  That is my son, he likes the simple girls!  She is a cutie.

And of course, who can forget my Gager???  He loves, loves, loves Toy Story.  HE is either woody or buzz depending on the day!  He loves his new school and is doing well.  He learns spanish and sign language.  IT is so cute to see him sign his letters and simple phrases.

THings are ticking along here.  I know I don't update often, but I am sooo busy.  I work all day and coach til about 4:30, which with my drive gets me home about 5:30, then of course, being "betty crocker"  I cook dinner...HA HA HA , get the boys ready and go to bed around 11.  B is still at Tyson and playing army in his spare time.  He is the rear detachment commander at the 414th and so he is always busy.  

More pics soon, I promise.  Hope everyone is well!!

Love JB

new places, new faces.... new year

Well, I have started at my new place of employment.  It has been a good year so far.  Hectic... Friday night is Pride Night, kinda a scrimmage, introduce fall athletes.  IT is a major fundraiser for my cheerleaders and a major piece of work for those of us putting it on... can't wait til it is over.  Then we will be full swing football and min-clinic bound.  Go Blackhawks! :)

To all my teacher and school buddies, I hope you are all having a great year.  The beginning of the year always reminds me of good ole' Prescott High Football.  I paid a visit to PG the other day, I would love to get to D-town and T-town sometime.

Oh well....Take care everyone...

update..

So we went to Branson and Silver Dollar City last weekend for a get away.  We stayed at Rock Castle resort and had a good time.  It had an indoor water park.  We did a little shopping.  Bryan his the Polo outlet and of course I went to good ole Coach.  Gage had a blast in the water.  Luke didn't get to go because he had to work. :(  This weekend is my pea ridge camp.  I am posting a pic of my new squad.  Also I am going to post pics of us on the rides.  Gage loved them all.  I had to ride the little roller coaster and B had to hit the dumbo ride.  It was a fun weekend.  Also I am posting a pic of chief and one of gage playing in the back yard.  Luke is not allowing me to photograph him at this moment. :(

okay, so i uploaded pics

Finally, I just saw Jessica's message on how to fix my pics and uploaded easter pics and one of Luke playing at arvest ballpark.  I like this method so much better.
For those of you who haven't heard I accepted a new job.  I will be teaching at Pea Ridge and coaching their varsity cheer squad.  It is a co-ed squad, so that makes it a new challenge. They have great skills and potential.  I am super excited.
However, of course I will miss my friends and girls at PG.  I know life is about making choices (well, there's a novel idea...) and this one was a tough one to make.  I know there are great kids at every school and hopefully my friends will keep in touch.
Oh well, peace.
JB

that's more like it!

Jessica McCash is a genius....
