Darndest Things....

While trying to define the word 'bulge' in class today, one of the 7th graders gave the example sentence, "Mrs Duncan has a bulge!" Lovely I tell you.

Typical Sunday

Of course I was suppose to post this blog on Sunday but the week got away from me! I just wanted to let y'all know what our typical Sunday has become! While I know this won't happen every Sunday, I do like to have a routine. 2 weeks ago we were at church and our minister was talking about past events of the church and he mentioned a barbeque that they had recently had. Well of course, our little daughter heard BBQ and had to have it! So we went to Sonny's! And then we went back this past Sunday and of course I had to get pictures of our delicious lunch!


I got a delicious meal of pulled pork, with sweet sauce, homemade mac and cheese, and garlic bread!

Todd's meal....yes, Todd likes barbeque!!!!

The Cat Who...

a series by Lilian Jackson Braun.....That series of books use to be a favorite of my mom and mine and we still like to pick one up every once in a while for an easy, entertaining read. The titles are always something silly like The Cat Who Could Read Backwards or The Cat Who Said Cheese. The main characters in the series are 2 siamese cats, Koko and Yum Yum. They assist there lovable owner, Jim Qwilleran, in solving mysteries that seem to occur around the small town they live in.

Anyway, the point of this blog is not to tell you about these books, it's to tell you about how they have inspired a blog series. I have a lovable siamese mix kitty named Blue. Blue is going to become the star of this blog series. I plan on taking pictures of Blue at her finest and not-so-finest and I would love YOU to name the book that she would star in!

So, for her first photo shoot...

Volleyball

I thought some of you might be interested in hearing a little more about the volleyball team I'm working for this year. I don't have too much to say but wanted to include an article that was recently run in the Athens Banner Herald featuring our head coach Nikki Chester. Too bad our little girl isn't due during the season or I might have been featured as well! :-D

Here are a few other recent articles about some Saturday playdates that we have recently dominated:

Darndest Things....

Today a 3rd grader asked me:

"When is your baby going to hatch?"
