Kt's Shower

So this past weekend was KT's shower and I have to say it was AMAZING! All the planning and worrying really paid off. She had an awesome turn out and Rossi got a lot of really nice stuff. I want to say a big thank you to those of you ladies who came and made the day so special for KT and Rossi. Also I have just a few pics to post. I didn't get to take many because I was hosting :-(. So if you have pics please send to me dawkinstr@embarqmail.com. Thanks!

PARENTS!!

So, I need to vent and I think this is a good place to do it. I have certain cheerleaders (the same ones ALWAYS) that think they do not have to listen, do not have to yell and the one thing that REALLY GETS me is they are not TIGHT! So Thursday nights game was probably the worst I have seen since my first game as a coach. I ended up benching the whole squad...NOTHING I am proud of. I love these girls so much and want them to have fun, but I have to do something because running them ALL the time is not working. It totally breaks my heart to see the same ones trying so hard and giving it their all every single time and then there are those few who dont try at all. So tonight the girls were supposed to run 38 laps because of Thursdays game (no I wasn't really going to make them run ALL 38 but at lest half of that). I had a parents complain about it being too tough and they need to get out of practice on time....NOW LET ME STOP THERE...I understand practice is over at a certain time and I understand that the parents dont want to wait. But when the cheerleaders (only a few) are laying in the gym soaking up the AC DURING practice and making us run late...that is their fault. But the parents dont see it that way, they dont want to wait around...ok so here's a thought...tell your daughter to not waste practice time. PHEW....I feel a lot better. I knew this blog would come in handy.

Hope you all are having a great night...and I hope to see you all tomorrow!! MUAH!

ITS A SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL!!!

So it is 8:40 on Friday night and EVERYONE is at Disney already. I am waiting on the hubby to get done with football. It really stinks!!! I know that he loves coaching and I am SO happy that he is able to but I wish we could just blink our eyes and be there....I am really DREADING the drive. But thankful I get to go (wish the Gorams and MacDonalds could come:-(). So anyways please pray we have nice weather, SHORT LINES and most of all FUN!!!!

Sick Mondays

I dont know why it is that every time I stay home by like 2:00 I am BORED! I dont stay home from work very much because I cant stand to sit around the house and be bored. But this morning I really didn't feel good and would have bet anything that it would last ALL day. Then here comes 2:30 and I find myself looking around the house for stuff to clean, clothes to fold, etc. The bad part is I did all that yesterday (my typical sunday cleaning). So I got online and got bored with that really easy. Then it hit me, I was looking at a website (cant remember which one) and I saw an advertisement for Tuesday September 23, 2008....SEX AND THE CITY COMES TO DVD!!!! All of a sudden I was so excited I couldn't stop smiling. GIRLS, I gotta get the DVD!!! I didnt know it was already out....I am just so freaking excited!!!

I hope you all are having a great monday and I will talk to yall soon...hope to see ya wednesday!!

Love you girls!

Let me fill ya in!!!

The past few weeks have been a little crazy around the Dawkins household. First I was having these HUGE knots form under my arm...come to find out I have some skin condition (cant remember what it is called) that caused my skin to wrinkle and then shaving allows bacteria in which causes the knots...talk about WEIRD! I asked my mom how many WEIRD things could I possibly have: tonic eye, geographic tongue and no wrinkled pits?!?! GEEZ am I from Venus or something?!?!?

So then, my hubby finally did it!!! HE QUIT HIS JOB!!! Bad news...he doesnt/didnt have another one! So we were a little worried there for about a week and half...then Wednesday he got TWO calls offering him a job. So now he will be working for AHCA (with the state) and on top of it he actually got a raise to take this job!! YAY I can have my hubby back instead of the mean bear that Dr caused him to be!!

Lastly, I have a cheerleader whose family was flooded out of their home during Fay. I can not stop thinking about them and how aweful that must be. Last night her mom showed me pictures and I am telling you what it looks like a pond and not a yard! Poor things!! So my mom and I have been collecting clothes for the family and I took up a collection for a gift card so the cheerleader can go buy some new clothes.

I think that is all that is going on right now in my life. OH by the way GO NOLES!!!!! This is the start of all my FAV NOLES football seasons....from the youngsters (JV. who won lastngith 44-0) through the big dawgs (VARSITY and the COLLEGE!!!)!!! I wish them all a GREAT season and GO NOLES!
