This time last year…

I was living in a sea of confusion.  I was allowing the unknown to pull me down into dark, cold waters.  
I was living in “When we figure out what we were doing, then I will get serious about growing in the Lord.” I wanted to have everything figured out and our life mapped out. [...]

Star Student and Thanksgiving

Little Miss was Star Student in her class a few weeks ago. I am just not getting around to posting pictures. 

Mom and /or Dads are welcome to come in a read a favorite book to the class.  I simply walked across the hall.  I love being close to my kids.  That is a bonus for [...]

Not a lot

Not a lot to share.  Well, that might not be true but there is certainly nothing left in this noggin of mine.  
I had a fabulous weekend with little on the agenda.  The husband and I were blessed with about 7 hours of shopping sans kids thanks to my sweet, sweet mom.  I did mega [...]

catching up

My memory card is full so I guess it is time to share some pictures. 
Last weekend, we had a little family party for Pumpkin.  Grandaddy and the Lad enjoyed some Fall Football outside.

Our pumpkin spending some sweet time with Aunt EJ-who came in town from Amarillo.

This is Great Grandmother and Pumpkin.  Isn’t she a lovely [...]

October 31

LOVE this date.  My affection for this last day of October has not always been as such.  It started about………….well, about ten years, 11 hours and 16 minutes ago.  Now, when the calendar reads October 31, I do  not respond as most Americans do.  I do indeed celebrate but I celebrate a life.  The life of [...]

Just sitting around

I can’t believe I just wrote that.  I can’t believe that is true.  And I most certainly can’t believe I admitted it!  
We have had an absolutely wonderful weekend.  Doing what?
Sitting around!  
Typically that sounds like a death sentence to me but for some reason it has been heavenly this weekend.  The Lad has run [...]

October! Really?

According to the calendar it is now October.  Yikes!  School has been in session for six weeks now and we are all getting into some sort of a routine.  Well, then we had a little sickness floating around here.  A lot of flu going around at our school but I am not certain if that [...]

A few photos (a post late)

Little Miss turned seven on September 6.  Here are a few photos from her special day. 

Daddy has a tradition of taking each birthday child to the donut store.  This year Little Miss’ birthday fell on a Sunday so after fetching donuts, Daddy and daughter ate donuts and  played at the park before church. 

Our beautiful (yet [...]

Geez Louise

I just realized that it has been over two weeks (or more) since I last posted.
I failed to do a b-day post for our sweet Little Miss who turned SEVEN on Sept. 6.  Oh me oh my how can that be?!?!?!
I also failed to throw her a party.
I don’t even know where to begin. Let’s [...]
