Fletcher had their kick off party this past Saturday. Our Relay for Life is going to be held July 16th to the 17th, 6:00 PM to 8:00 AM. Our theme this year is We are having Party!! The girls are already started making plans for the funny farm's area and this year we are helping with the luminaria ceremony. We are doing this years in memory of Malinda. So mark your calenders and come up and join us. Because you know the funny farm knows how to party.

Jenna's basketball

Jenna is short but she can play a good game of basketball, as long as you don't count the fowls... she is tuff...
Very proud of her. When she went to try out the guy, Mr Ross, said ohh no. His daughter had played against her last year and was hoping Jenna wasn't coming back. But it worked out good Jenna made his team.

4H awards

We went to the 4H district awards Friday and Jenna got her award for the largest sunflower she own back in Sept. It was neat to see all the clubs together and see what other competitions there are out there to do. The girls are starting to rolling on 2010 things.

Family Fun Day!

On a cold snowy Saturday morning we loaded the bus full of all of us and headed to Atlanta to have a family fun day Roberts style. We went to the GA Aquarium and some place else I can't say...don't want Jonathan to get in trouble. To get all 11 of us together was great. We had the most fun and that aquarium is amazing. We missed the Beluga whales, the lady told Ho that Fed Ex lost them..most have been a big package, but everything else was so cool. I could have spend hours at the penguins and the jellyfish. They had 3 large touch tanks that the girls got to play in...don't know if they will eat shrimp as much anymore after holding one. Then is was off to the other place across the park from the aquarium. Their 4 D movie was the best and to be able to try all the different flavors from around the world. Then we all went to get Mexican and have Christmas. To have all of us together is great! Hope we can do it soon again.

2010

How else do you bring in the new year then a plate of black eye peas, greens, rice, and a good game of bowling? The girls had a great time I was even winning for a few but not for long. Let the good times roll in 2010!

New Years & Birthday

To some people New Years is the night you remember the old and bring in the new. Well, 13 years ago I brought in the new with 2 beautiful, little girls. It is so hard to believe that they are now teenagers. Ok, I made it the past 13 yrs I guess I can make it thru the teenage years...I'm already turning gray! The twins got their ears re pieced and we had pizza & cupcakes at the Bears and Ho's. Then we went to see what was going on around downtown and headed to Jonathan's to bring in the new year. Sam fell a sleep and we all played smart ass a few times. I can remember all the twins birthday parties and this yr was nice and quiet hopefully 2010 will be quiet also...wait a minute I forget there is no quiet time on the funny farm.

early birthday

For the twins early 13th birthday we went to see Jeff Duham. I know some of his stuff is rude but the girls know every line of all 3 videos. They thought you had to be 18 or older to see him. We all laughed all 3 hrs he did his show...Walter is Sam's favorite, The Terrorists is Jenna's, and Peanut is Tori's...she acts like Peanut sometimes. "I'm I pissing you offfffff!" I enjoyed them all but the guitar guy was with him and he is amazing!

NC largest mall

As we left the warm 84 degrees inside water park we went across the street to Concord MIlls mail. It was so big it had a carousel in the food court area. Our favorite stores were the Disney store and the Lego store. I am not much of a shopper but I really enjoyed this mall. We had a great morning walking around!

Great Wolf Logde

Jonathan and I wanted to do something special for the girls for Christmas this year. After looking around we decided to go to the Great Wolfe Lodge in Concord NC. We had a blast. They have a inside water park with 13 slides...we survived the tornado, a wave pool, a adventure pool..with moving Lily pads & basketball hoops, and a water tent that dumped 10,000 gallons of water on you every 10 minutes. We played mi nature golf one afternoon and of coarse went to one of our favorite wing places Quaker State and Lube. I want to thank my personal shopper Jan that found swimsuits for all of us...not many places selling them here in winter...and Andy & Jan for all the snacks and goodies. We were water logged by the end of this trip. But wanted to race one more time down the racer. Inside this huge place there was a dunkun doughnuts, pizza hut, bakery, and a restaurant. There was an arcade and a teen computer area. They had everything even story time you could go to in your PJs. This was a cool place!
