honorary team members

We have been telling the girls about the people that Mommy and Daddy go to help each month. We have been praying for them and Landry usually has questions about them.
This month, I decided it was time to get them involved. They helped us make the ham sandwiches and they did an excellent job. Bella snuck a bite of meat, thankfully LE caught her before she made a sandwich with a bite out of it.

prayer request

A couple of weeks ago, my grandfather went in for a checkup and they discovered he had a malignant tumor.  Last week, he had it removed, we are now waiting for his follow-up visit to make sure they were able to remove it all.  Tonight, my dad called and they admitted him to the hospital with blood clots in his legs, pneumonia and the oxygen levels in his blood are out of whack.  We have been praying for weeks for my grandfather & now I am asking for you to agree with me.  It is to the point where I do not have the words to pray, so if there are any intercessors out there, I would appreciate it and I know my grandmother and grandfather would too.

western day

We celebrated Texas' birthday at school last week. The girls got to join my class for our chili cook-off. I just want to know why my class always makes better chili than I do at home. It was so yummy. The girls even enjoyed it, I think the chips were a hit with Bella (she is her Daddy's girl).

whats going on

I am selling more Stampin' Up products on Ebay.  Please feel free to shop, I can deliver to you and not charge shipping.  I am so thankful most items sold on Craig's List or to friends; but these are what are left. 

This Sunday, is our homeless outreach - 9:15, 6th Street Bridge - if you can bring a case of water and 2 dozen sandwiches, would love to have you.

This weekend, we went to San Angelo to watch Uncles Ryan and Bryan play softball. Of course, we also went to love on a little nephew too. Brady was mesmerized by his big cousin, Landry and followed her every movement. I had so much fun snapping these pics.

day in the park

Daddy worked from home this week. We took advantage of it and the beautiful weather and took a long lunch in the nearby city park. We had a great picnic and enjoyed flying kites. I love my husband so much. He even helped a little boy to get his kite to take off too.

spring B-R-E-A-K

This break came exactly when needed.  I am so glad the local school district finally got it right and made spring break the week of daylight savings time.  We have had alot of things happening in our family and I am so glad to be able to get a little extra sleep this week.  I cannot imagine trying to get up for work on a week I had to actually get up and it still be dark. We have a few more days to adjust before we have to get out the door on time again.  I am in the process of uploading literally hundreds of photos of our little road trip.  Will work on posting some soon, but I have two blondies in the bathtub and loads of unpacking to start working on.

worth it all

I am in no mood to blog, sorry.  I will over spring break.

Yes, I tried to make the blog private, did not work - too many friends without google accounts who care about us.  Thanks for letting me know you were out there & keeping track of us:)

I AM my mother

I have known it for awhile, but it seems every week I am reminded I am turning more and more into my MOM!  And that is not a bad thing, OK, I just don't want to grow up! 

So, I have been pondering what in the world to blog about, I have nothing to blog about, or in reality I have nothing nice to blog about.  Then, Mom goes and blogs about not having anything nice to say in her blog too.  I resolved months and months ago, that I refused to go there - if I have nothing nice to say I am just not going to share it.  I want people to leave my blog with only positive words of encouragement or wonderful images of my beautiful family, but lately I do not have that.  So, that being said, I have turned into my Mom again, and she is walking through the same thing I am walking through, AGAIN.

Love you Mimi.

But, we do have some good news - a new niece - Ruby Jane was born yesterday, as soon as I get pics, I will post some for you.
