The Fat Mom: A busy bee

This week has been never ending!!!

I've been trying to raise money for not only the AIDS Walk, but also for St. Bladrick's (for children with cancer). My husband has decided to shave his head and I've signed up as a volunteer to help with the event. To help raise more money for both events, my mom and I decided to do a bake sale. The next few weekends will be spent baking.

How do you like the flyer I made for Mom's office?

Baseball is in full swing. Youngest is so excited to play and I can't wait until games start. I've volunteered to be Team Mom again. Shoot me now! Even though it brings on several headaches with all of the responsibilities, it is also very rewarding to be "a part of the team"!

Youngest at baseball tryouts

Tonight was Youngest and Step-Son's school Texan program. They sang their little hearts out and I was a proud Momma. True to form, I teared up watching them up on stage.

And to sum everything up, I'm leaving tomorrow to visit a friend about 3 hours away. Her husband is in the Army and they were stationed in Germany. They recently came back to Texas and I promised I'd visit her new house. I'm not looking forward to the boring drive by myself, but I can't wait to see her!

Mer and Mo said...: You are one busy bee! You go TEAM MOM! You are awesome for taking that on. I don't because my husband is usually the coach so that exempts me from doing too much.
Good luck on the bake sale!
Have a great weekend connecting with your friend!
