Happy Birthday Grandmother

Today is Beryl's birthday. Unfortunately she has been stuck in a meeting all day, but there will be a dinner fit for a queen when she gets home.
This is a great photo of Beryl and Melina Marie.

Happy Birthday Farm Girl.

Hey all. Found something neat on the internet. Check out the last member of this board of directors! Why didn't you ever tell me about this, kid?

Also, please get those RSVP cards for the wedding mailed back, everyone! Today's the due date!

Now, check out those pictures of Gramma's house down below.

The House is Painted!

We had quite the work crew this past weekend to paint Mom/Gramma's house. Tommy and Jimmy started on Friday afternoon and did all of the prep work - taking all the stuff off and taping. They even got two sides primed. Marc and I showed up Saturday morning and started in on the priming. Connie came down and the five of us hit it hard. We stopped for lunch and then started up again. The initial color that Gramma picked turned out to be too light, so Tommy and Jimmy headed out to Home Depot to darken it up a bit. We started getting the garage ready to paint while they were gone. We finished all of the house on Saturday except the side facing the alley. We had done that in the initial color and it had to dry. We all headed up to Mary and Jim's for dinner that night and had a great time. Randa, Emma and Nate were in town, so it was a houseful. Johnny was playing at Bert and Ernie's that night, so some of us went down to listen. Tommy, Jimmy and Johnny started in on Sunday morning and after Mass Marc, Mary and I joined them. We got it all done plus the garage. Now when you look at the pictures, you may think it looks the same, but not so. It looks clean and lighter!! We had a great time and we owe Tommy and Jimmy a huge thank you as they spent the most time on it. Gramma seems to really like it and that is all that counts!

Happy Birthday James Anthony!

I am into using middle names today! I hope you have a terrific birthday today. Find something fun to do to celebrate!!

Love ya
Mary

(PS. Jim needed a pic, so here he is with his horse a couple weeks ago.)

New town, new house, new job....

Hello All!

Well, it has been awhile since we've updated you all on the happenings of the Schultes. It was great to see you all at the Family Picnic. Shortly after that, we made the big move to Helena - took a whole big UHaul truck plus a couple vehicles....lots of crap...er...stuff. :) Much of it was wedding presents we hadn't seen since the day after our wedding, so unpacking was pretty exciting. We got settled and love the little house. It's close to the school, a nice park, Food Share, and Uncle Joey!!

Tyson is doing well. He is growing like a WEED! He now weighs 15 lbs and measures 25". Crazy! He's also talking a TON. And sleeping incredibly well - usually from 10-5:30 or 6 (sorry Kelly!). It's awesome.

Ryan is loving his job at Helena High. The Bengals are 3-0 for all teams, so they are on a role! He has AP History and US History - all juniors. I think he's liking the students and staff...and having Mom in the office hasn't been too bad.

And I'm keeping the home fires burning and finishing up my transcription training. I also applied for a part-time job at OPI, so we'll see how that pans out.

That's about it from us Schultes. Our new address is: 1916 Sanders St, Helena, MT 59601. Happy days!

Mr W

Just though I'd post a pretty funny video I saw today that's pretty clever.

Madison Rocks!!

A very happy birthday to the first September birthday, Maddie Jo!! Wish we could have celebrated at the Carousel, but that is your gift the next time you come to Helena. We will go get stuffed on ice cream and then ride the carousel. Or should I say, you can ride and I will watch. Hope you had a great day, Maddie!! We were thinking of you!
Sorry to post above you, Hannah!! Couldn't let this birthday pass without a blog!!

More Broken Bones

Just thought I'd post the latest broken bone in the Philpot household. Carter broke his left arm yet again. Two years in a row now. This time he fell off the monkey bars at school and got a small buckle fracture near his wrist. Better than the elbow chip last year. He has now caught up with his mom as we have both had two arms cracked somehow. Hopefully that will end his little bone splitting spree. We'll keep ya'll updated. :)

Senior Year

So I thought I would just give a little update on my life thus far. Summer finished out well. I was super glad to be done with my job. It ranks up there with the Donut Hole as a place I never want to work again. So now I am back in good ol SuFu starting my senior year! It is really crazy that I am a senior. And it looks like this year is gonna go fast, but be really fun. I am excited. I got back and started working on things for our mentor program that the theatre puts on for the freshman. Then last weekend we had our retreat and we went camping and learned an epic new game. It is called Iranian Dodgeball and it is sweet! I definitely came away with some scrapes and bruises...and a pair of shorts that I ripped the bum out of. That wasn't embarrassing at all. :) We started classes on Wednesday and I can already tell that I will be keeping busy. I am also working at a day care I worked at last semester. I really like getting to see little kids and hold them and not have them talk back to me. This week is going to be busy because I have 3 auditions. Today I am auditioning with 2 guys for the emcee spots for our varieties show. Then tomorrow night I have auditions for the musical that is going on in November. Finally, on Friday I have auditions for our show this weekend which is called 8 in 48. We cast, rehearse, and perform 8 short plays in 48 hours. It is intense but so much fun! I have also already celebrated 2 of my friends birthdays and just got back from camping again. It was fun, but rainy and kinda cold. I was able to bust out my new tent, though, so that is always fun! Anyhoo, I guess I should do homework or something. Hope all is going well for the rest of you!! Much love!

The pickem' pool

This is for anyone who is involved in the pool. I have gone through all my email, and I don't have an invite, so if someone could either email me (nathanmeunier@gmail.com), or tell me how to get to the picks so that I can post mine, I would appreciate it. Also, Nate, why don't you just put directions on the blog with the username and password as well as the way to get to the picks page. That way there is no confusion, and everyone will not only know how to get there, but also be able to reference that if they forget!

To Our Up and Coming Star

I just want a hats off to Kelly!! She appeared in the Sheldon, Iowa community play of Bye Bye Birdie and according to Molly was the star of the show. That goes without saying. It was a great way for her to keep busy while her guy is in the desert, but I just wanted to say how proud of her we are!! I hope that there was a filming so that we can view it at a later time. How many people would put themselves out on YouTube to audition!! Way to go Kelly!! We love you!

Pick Em!

So I resent out the emails for the Pro Football Pick 'Em that I started. If you didn't get one let me know and I can resend another one. Check junk inboxes as it is from CBS Sports so your email might have confused it with junk. When you get the email just follow the links and sign up for an account on CBS and it will pretty much talk you through getting you into our group.

Also, my dad and I were thinking $20 a piece and we could pay out the top three spots 50% for first - 30% for second - and 20% for third. Let me check my math..... yep, that all equals 100% so we're good. My old man's address is:

Tom Moore
407 Glee Pl
Billings, MT 59102

The first games are on Thursday of THIS WEEK so get your teams signed up and payed for and picked by then. Lookin' forward to this!
