Well after the list was about 10-15 kids... I decided that we had to find a place for the party so we decided to do flag football at Creekside in loganville the kids had a blast and I will post pictures later. We also decided to let him have a sleep over so we told him he could pick 4 friends. The plan was pick them all up from school play for a while at our house- then head to Grayson for Mason's basketball game and out to dinner..... well plans changed just a little.....I think the plans changed for the better you tell me??&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_gwlA7YheXHc/S454FkDColI/AAAAAAAAFps/E2tvu2cSlEY/s1600-h/DSC_0076.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5444421036508619346" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 213px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_gwlA7YheXHc/S454FkDColI/AAAAAAAAFps/E2tvu2cSlEY/s320/DSC_0076.JPG" border="0" /&gt; &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Who would have guessed that it would snow 4 inches in Georgia..

I have some updates for you. When she went back after her last dose of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;arsenic&lt;/span&gt; she was told that her levels (I am not sure what this means) were not good so she would have to start Chemo ( she is not strong enough for it but it is the last resort). She started the Chemo last week and yesterday she started running a fever and was admitted to the hospital. It does not look good right now so please keep her and her family in your prayers. On a positive note since I do not want to end on this- I went in yesterday for my first &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;mammogram&lt;/span&gt; and an ultrasound for a lump I found last month and my test came back good!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4750686639135757341-5986446183785911399?l=thethompsonnews.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thethompsonnews.blogspot.com/feeds/5986446183785911399/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4750686639135757341&amp;postID=5986446183785911399' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4750686639135757341/posts/default/5986446183785911399'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4750686639135757341/posts/default/5986446183785911399'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thethompsonnews.blogspot.com/2009/05/my-cousin-julie.html' title='My Cousin Julie'/><author><name>The Thompson's</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09438038699632649249</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_gwlA7YheXHc/STF1ws0F6dI/AAAAAAAAEb0/hwCPAhW5hMY/S220/sc06709b82.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4750686639135757341.post-5296024557576119569</id><published>2009-05-19T05:20:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-05-19T07:21:15.824-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Allstar tryouts and Ambulance ride!!!</title><content type='html'>OK -no pictures but we had a very eventful evening last night. It started with ALLSTAR tryouts for Mason (and YES he made it- so our June will be busy). We ended up spending the rest of the evening in an ambulance to Egleston for Brooks. I can laugh now and say that he just wanted a little attention which he got!!!! so what happened??? Brooks was riding his scooter around the ball field and I noticed he parked it at the playground (this was the big playground- I have never liked at Baycreek) so I started to walk over when Brett called me over to bring him some baseball cards for the boys who were at tryouts so I took him the cards then walked over to the playground searching for Brooks when I finally found him face down and unconscious just laying in the woodchips not moving. It might just be the scariest moment of my life seeing his lifeless little body laying there. I know better but I picked him up-he was limp and not his legs or arms I carried him over to where Brett was finishing up tryouts and he started to cry but he was not able to talk clearly. Luckily there was a fireman who came over examined him and called 911. Brett rode in the ambulance with Brooks ( I was way too hysterical to be with him so I followed in my car behind them) they strapped him down to this board to keep his neck and back flat. He was very brave and did great. He did start to talk on the way to the hospital. Brooks had on Mason’s old ALLSTAR jersey and the paramedic asked him if he played baseball and of course Brooks said “yes” so the paramedic asked what position he liked to play and Brooks answered “ALLSTARS” Brett and the paramedic just started to laugh…. He also said he could feel and move his feet- when Brett told me this I felt a little better. Once we arrived at the hospital they took the board out from under him and he started to move his legs but they still did not want him to move his head and neck because he had pain on his spine and they were worried about a possible break. They took X-Ray’s and did a CT scan and all came back good!! Brooks got lots of attention the nurses gave him a little football and a teddy bear… he was eating it up:-) one of the nurses said how can you say “no to those eyes” anyway after the test came back they let him take the neck brace off have a popsicle and get up and walk he was wobbly but it was a great relief to see him walking!!! So we finally arrived home around 12:30 but I woke up every hour to make sure he was OK so needless to say Brett and I are a little sleep deprived today but what a relief our baby is fine!!! Just a little sore:-(&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I also need to add a huge Thank you to Julie/Grammy for helping out with Mason.  She had to take him home to get him ready for bed and school today.  I know she was dying to be with us at the hospital.  I don't know what we would do without such a caring and loving family Grandaddy, Papa and Nana could not stay away we had a room full...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4750686639135757341-5296024557576119569?l=thethompsonnews.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thethompsonnews.blogspot.com/feeds/5296024557576119569/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4750686639135757341&amp;postID=5296024557576119569' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4750686639135757341/posts/default/5296024557576119569'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4750686639135757341/posts/default/5296024557576119569'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thethompsonnews.blogspot.com/2009/05/allstar-tryouts-and-ambulance-ride.html' title='Allstar tryouts and Ambulance ride!!!'/><author><name>The Thompson's</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09438038699632649249</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_gwlA7YheXHc/STF1ws0F6dI/AAAAAAAAEb0/hwCPAhW5hMY/S220/sc06709b82.jpg'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4750686639135757341.post-6063066255799928985</id><published>2009-03-13T10:26:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-04-21T14:07:15.185-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Spring Break/ Easter</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Easter Sunday&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_gwlA7YheXHc/Se40Gd3kEwI/AAAAAAAAFQQ/figHdzgNORE/s1600-h/DSC_0106.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

The boys had so much fun playing in the snow.  Mason was running a fever on Sunday and Monday but he was still able to go out for a few minutes and enjoy the snow.  They loved making snow balls and throwing them at each other and especially throwing them at Brett.  Brooks loved making snow angels and wearing his frog galoshes. I am not big on the cold and wet snow but it was so much fun watching them have so much fun.  I am so ready for summer! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4750686639135757341-2591848193537614730?l=thethompsonnews.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thethompsonnews.blogspot.com/feeds/2591848193537614730/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4750686639135757341&amp;postID=2591848193537614730' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4750686639135757341/posts/default/2591848193537614730'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4750686639135757341/posts/default/2591848193537614730'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thethompsonnews.blogspot.com/2009/03/fun-in-snow.html' title='Fun in the snow'/><author><name>The Thompson's</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09438038699632649249</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_gwlA7YheXHc/STF1ws0F6dI/AAAAAAAAEb0/hwCPAhW5hMY/S220/sc06709b82.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_gwlA7YheXHc/SbUBYqw4y1I/AAAAAAAAFOY/m4kpZh5-Tmc/s72-c/DSC_0690.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4750686639135757341.post-5957224124260359413</id><published>2009-02-18T13:17:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-02-18T13:43:42.410-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Stone mountain</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;On Sunday, we (Me, Brett, Mason, Brooks, Cassy, Mark and K) decided to head to Stone Mountain because it was such a nice day.  Here are a few pictures that I took. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_gwlA7YheXHc/SZx_jiSquQI/AAAAAAAAFN0/Phoy9xa6v3I/s1600-h/DSC_0653.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

I can't believe that 7 awesome years have passed already since the birth of my first born- he is getting so big!  This year we celebrated Mason's birthday DAY with just the 4 of us.  Mason loves Mexican (he takes after his mother) so of course when we asked what he wanted to eat for his birthday he said Frontera. What he forgot was that they sing to you and make you wear that lovely hat and for those of you who know Mason he did not like this at all but he was a trooper.  I can't believe that I did not think to snap a picture:-(  Oh well but I did take lots of pictures from his party with "friends" on Friday.  Wow, I never imagined how loud sixteen 7 year old boys could be.  They had so much fun at Creekside Sports Center playing flag football and flag tag (thanks Mark for this suggestion the kids loved it).  I will upload some pictures soon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Happy Birthday Mason I love you!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4750686639135757341-5440684420391260028?l=thethompsonnews.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thethompsonnews.blogspot.com/feeds/5440684420391260028/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4750686639135757341&amp;postID=5440684420391260028' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4750686639135757341/posts/default/5440684420391260028'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4750686639135757341/posts/default/5440684420391260028'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thethompsonnews.blogspot.com/2009/02/happy-7th-birthday-mason.html' title='Happy 7th Birthday Mason!!'/><author><name>The Thompson's</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09438038699632649249</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_gwlA7YheXHc/STF1ws0F6dI/AAAAAAAAEb0/hwCPAhW5hMY/S220/sc06709b82.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_gwlA7YheXHc/SZx6r6tKWgI/AAAAAAAAFMs/YggUvAjpLAs/s72-c/DSC_0604.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4750686639135757341.post-8732604205494551746</id><published>2009-01-20T05:38:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-01-20T06:59:31.887-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Back from the big NYC</title><content type='html'>Well after spending most of the night last night in the airport and only having 2 hours of sleep, we are back home from New York. It was a whirlwind of a weekend and so much fun. Saturday morning started with yet another surprise from the husbands. We arrived at the Moon house to find a limo waiting for us to take us all to the airport. After checking into our rooms and touring all day we went to see the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Broadway&lt;/span&gt; show Chicago on Saturday, it was really good for those of us who actually stayed awake for the entire show. We also visited the Empire state building and walked and road all over New York. On Sunday, we shopped most of the day in China town, that was quite the experience.... ("10 dollar- I make no money") We also ran/ walked about 2 miles to see the miracle plane( that went down in the Hudson river last week. We rode in a yellow taxi/ the subway, got in trouble on tour &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;buses&lt;/span&gt;, had pictures made with very large bulls (as well as many other places), and walked down W&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;allstreet&lt;/span&gt;. We also cried a little at ground zero and saw the Statue of Liberty. Then we finished our night on Sunday with a little sledding and walked on a frozen lake in Central Park. It snowed most of the day on Sunday and Monday and it was so beautiful. Even though we had a very hard time getting back home this morning (thanks Mark and Brent for picking us up at 1:30am) it was a great trip... Oh and I almost forgot a very important last surprise from my wonderful hubby...

This is my first post and I am hoping a can figure this thing out. We spent the first week of the summer at the beach it was a blast. When we returned from the beach we spent the next 4 weeks at the ball fields for Mason's Allstars it was so much fun. Now that baseball is over we are enjoying the next few weeks of the summer by spending the days at the pool,  and playing outside (so much that Brooks has learned to ride his bike with no training wheels)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4750686639135757341-3868729007710960070?l=thethompsonnews.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thethompsonnews.blogspot.com/feeds/3868729007710960070/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4750686639135757341&amp;postID=3868729007710960070' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4750686639135757341/posts/default/3868729007710960070'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4750686639135757341/posts/default/3868729007710960070'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thethompsonnews.blogspot.com/2008/07/july-2008.html' title='July 2008'/><author><name>The Thompson's</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09438038699632649249</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_gwlA7YheXHc/STF1ws0F6dI/AAAAAAAAEb0/hwCPAhW5hMY/S220/sc06709b82.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp3.blogger.com/_gwlA7YheXHc/SHfGxO0KEPI/AAAAAAAADoM/fmgD2_LQL84/s72-c/Seacrest+beach+May+2008+548.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry></feed>
