See what happens when there are no kids at home- you go crazy and start dreaming up insurmountable projects. Like painting every surface in the kitchen.

Friends at First Bite..
Today is Hunter's very first friends' birthday. The first time he met her, he bit her! She was only a couple of days old and just home from the hospital. She must have forgiven him, because they became fast friends. They took naps, learned to walk and talk, and play dress up together. Not much has changed in 13 years!

Wake Up Sleepy Jean.....
Drew and Hunter had to do a project for Spanish-Take pictures of a day in your life and label them in Spanish. They took pictures of their morning routine. Now I know why their lips are so rosey and my lipstick is missing!

He did the Hoooookey Pokey
or at least in my mind he did. Tonight was the 8th grade dance. Drew fancied up with the help of his stylist Hunter, and went with a sweet girl M.
Hunter was so patient with him and took great pride and care of his hair and appearance. He even taught him how to swing his head just right so as to get his hair to lay just so. Unfortunately, Drew doesn't have the interest in his hair like Hunter does.
"The Untouchables"
After the dance-he had had enough of that tie; two hours is way too much fancy time for a guy whose uniform is tee shirts and cozy shorts.
Our son is so talented, isn't she lucky to be with him?
Off to the after party......Cheers to Junior High.

"Brothers from other Mothers"
and sisters for that matter. I love it when kids just show up - that seems to be the mantra these days. They come with food, instruments and lots of personality. Gone are the days of our "land line" ringing. They communicate with each other and make their own plans on cellphones. Which I LOVE. It is very peaceful not having the phone ring off the hook, which is what it would be like because they are ALWAYS texting, talking, facebooking, i-chatting with SOMEONE! And they seem to be "hanging out" together more.
Here's just a small portion of our extended family :)

Sunday Best
Today was Sunday School Teacher Appreciation- Joe and I got a bag full of goodies and sweet notes from our class. At the bottom of the bag was a note that said, "We were going through old pictures, came across this one and thought you would like to have it." Like to have it? I'd like to turn the clock back to that day!
The back was dated 8/26/06.

On This Day in History
This steeple for our new church was set in place. A friend and I had a picnic and watched.
Afterward, I went grocery shopping, picked Drew and Hunter up from school-along with a few other friends, came home and made "first dinner"-that's a topic for another post. Just watching those guy work wore me out! I needed some rest time- plus, I could hear the kids outside in the pool/hot tub and they sounded happy.
It wasn't until Joe came home asking for the camera to take pictures of them that I thought-maybe I should look out the window. But I didn't, I rolled over and enjoyed the solitude. Besides, they were playing, I could hear them, no one was hurt, they were laughing, singing everything from "Jesus Loves Me" to Lady Antebellum and everything in between. Then I saw the pictures.
Ryan- is that you? I didn't even know you were here!
Where's Kody? He WAS here, I thought.
Moral to the story is, I may not know your kid is here, but as long as they're happy and no one's crying- It's ALL Good!
PS- They've left the "hot tub time machine" and are in the house playing their instruments. As for me, Joe and I are in our hide out until it blows over- it's a good Friday night :)

I Love Him
There I said it- When I asked Joe to paint our office he didn't bat an eye-because he thought I meant only the red wall. I didn't, I meant the whole room.
To be continued...........

They're #1 and We Couldn't Be Prouder!
It's 6:15 am Saturday morning and Drew can't dress himself-if you asked him he would say he can, but chooses not to! Notice Joe and Drew are almost nose to nose:)
See Hunter in the background, dressing himself. Know what they both can do? Go to a UIL competition and get ALL #1s!
For the 2nd song Drew is 2nd from the left on the last row.

Happy Birthday Queen B!
We celebrated a couple of weeks ago with dinner and a Casting Crowns Concert.
We sing the "Voice of Truth" and the Queen does an awesome bridge:
But the stone was just the right size
To put the giant on the ground
And the waves they don't seem so high
From on top of them lookin' down
I will soar with the wings of eagles
When I stop and listen to the sound of Jesus
Singing over me
I'm so blessed to call you friend, I hope you have a GREAT day!

Post-Its
I got some birthday love last month
in the form of post-its all over my car.
Which is super cute
and so thoughtful.
But it rained on my parade
and the post-its bled through turning my car pink. Which was fine with me, I need a little more pink in my life:)
You can't see her face but Snow is freaking out.....trying to get the pink off...which she did.

Last Sunday our youth director's 3rd baby was baptised.
Drew used the opportunity to debut his fancy blazer. It was fun seeing all the guys dressed up.
