It's been awhile!!

Happy 2009!! A lot has happened since my last post. So I'll attempt to summarize the last few months without boring the (insert your own adj. here)out of everyone. I guess we should start with Thanksgiving. Athena was in her school play of the first Thanksgiving. She was an Indian Princess (all the Indians/Native Americans for those of you pc types-were princesses or chiefs). I heard it was a very entertaining play were no matter what ills befell the Pilgrims, they all survived!!(hey it's a kindergarten play)Athena made the news paper with a couple of her classmates Gabby and Connor. (twice in 5 yrs! I think she is trying for the family record of appearances).


Athena's class also had an apple pumpkin day where they made pumpkin pies to take home! What a treat.



Athena also got to go on a road trip with Aunt Seleste and Uncle Scott to Tallahassee for the game against Boston college. They stopped by cousin Beau's house to visit (and give Seleste and Scott a break from trying to entertain a 5 yr. old.) After playing the Wii and jumping on the trampoline for a few hours they returned to let Uncle Scott take a nap! The game kicked off at 830 pm and Athena wanted to make sure everyone was fresh for the tailgating. According to the report Athena loved all the cheering and yelling, but heckling the BC fans was her ultimate goal!! (the kid is unwavering in her loyalty!) After the unfortunate non-win, she was out before the 10 minute ride to the hotel was complete. The next morning she was on the prowl for BC fans to tell them how she felt about their team. Scott tried,unsuccessfully, to coach her on being a good sport but she was focused on booing someone!!


Christmas came and apparently Athena was so good she received her own Toys r Us!! So much for putting everyone on a budget. We also have every Hannah Montanna item ever produced!! I am so well versed in HM that at the Bucs game on the 28th I actually heard a HM song and knew it...unfortunately I was alone with the knowledge. So sad.

Hope everyone has a safe, happy, healthy 2 0 0 9.
