Definately NOT a green thumb person, but I'm pretty impressed with the Mum that returned from last year, out near our pool. It's beautiful and purple. I love the jewel tones of fall.

This and That...
Well, at first I enjoyed posting to our blog and lately, I've just let it slide. So.... With that in mind, here's a quick summary of what we have been up too. Colby and Chelsey are full swing into 10th Grade. Football, Ag Project (Jorge the Pig), shopping and school are their lives at the moment. Oh and their friends.... most of which are at our house often, and Chelsey's boyfriend, Dallas and our second son Tyler.
Driver's Ed is a Monday night thing. They should have their permits soon, and then Danny and they can drive together. I on the other hand, prefer to stay the control freak that I am, and handle the stearing when we are in a vehicle together.
Texting is our mode of communication.... I never get "I love you" or "How's it going Mom?" It's ALWAYS one of the following: Can you stop on your way home and get "X"? I'm hungry. What's taking u so long? I need "X" for school tomorrow. Colby will occassionally text "Sup Mom?" and I smile, all the others create a frown.
Lily has taken to chewing everything she can get her teeth on. If left home alone too long, she'll shred Danny's shoes, chew buttons off the tv remote, chew the handle on the recliners, and slowly pull a cloth off our coffee table, to get the bowl, that USED TO contain M&M's. She's a mess!
Duke, the Lab, visits in the morning and afternoon. Always looking for a meal. He jumps up and opens the back door, and then lays just inside the house, until someone notices him.
Rebel the Cat stays in the garage, and mission accomplished, NO MICE!!! He's a terror to Lily, but she holds her own with him. They jump on each other and play. If Lily can get Rebel by the throat, she'll drag him to me as if to say "Look Mom, it's a cat!"
Danny continues to take care of the Fenter Funny Farm. Rain during the month of October was over the top. Grass grew, mud everywhere and one bored hubby. Finally is dried up enough to mow.
As for me, it's work work work. I was home two days this week with a sore throat and terrible ear infection. Thought I'd lose my mind! As much as I'd like to say that I would stay home if I could.... it's just not me. Good news is, even though the guidelines have tightened even more for Mortgages, we're still closing loans. And, I still love what I do, even after 20+ years....
That's an update of the Fenters. I'll try and not wait so long next time.

Celina vs Gainsville 10/22/09
I think my baby boy is just a bit bigger than the competition! He carried the ball on a two point conversion tonight and was ALL smiles afterward. Notice I didn't say he scored, but for a kid that has out weighed most by at least 50-75 pounds most of his life, just touching the ball is BIG!!! And YES, they won!!! Sunday, October 18, 2009
