Well,it happened, Sam FINALLY pulled one over on me. In 16 years, he has only been able to surprise me one other time. It is not that I do not like to be surprised and find things out being nosy, he can't keep a secret. Last week was his week off. So we stayed the beginning of the week at the lake. On Wednesday, we headed to Birmingham to visit ( Read more... )

I am one of those people who smells or hears things and can be transported back into time immediately. It is funny how something can spark your memory so clearly. Last night I decided to make a pumpkin pie. Those who know me realize that it was actually two pies. I can not do anything on a small scale in the kitchen. Anyway, I sat in the den and ( Read more... )

This week as flown by!! I can't believe tomorrow is Friday. Thanks to all of you who prayed for my grandfather. He got a report today that his vision is fine. SO he will be able to drive and play golf. That is a good thing since he is one that I guarantee would drive anyway ( Read more... )

Ok, I am one of those people who read everyone's blog and get mad if they have no new entries but never seem to write my own. Either, my day has been so bad I can not even create a flowing, sensible narrative or I am just too lazy. I actually use those excuses for a lot of things these days ( Read more... )

So are the hairs on Finley Grace's head...Yep, it happened today. I know all kids do it. I did my hair and my sister's when I was little. Brayden has done it. But I was hoping that she would not. I have been letting her hair grow into a certain style that I always wanted for a little girl. Since she was bald for almost two years, it has taken ( Read more... )

I woke up this morning with a sore throat and a headache. Probably something from the doctor's office visit with Baylor. He had his one year old check-up. He was late because I had to reschedule his appointment because it was going to interfere with our beach trip. Anyway, everything was fine. The doctor told me I could stop the baby food and give ( Read more... )

We made it through the first week of school. Brayden seems to like his class. He has gotten up every morning about 6:45 and comes down dressed and ready to go. Friday at school, they had some type of fake cow that had a glove that was filled with milk. Anyway, the children were supposed to "milk" the cow. Guess which kid didn't even want to think ( Read more... )

Well, the summer is over. It seems like the beginning was so slow but the end of summer has flown by. Brayden starts 4 year old preschool tomorrow. This is our last year with him at home before he starts real school. We went to an Open House today and his teacher told us what all she planned for the year etc...Brayden is all excited because they ( Read more... )

It is hard to believe that it has been a year already but Baylor is ONE today!!In some ways it seems like he has always been with us and in other ways, the year has gone by in a fog! We are having a family birthday on saturday at the lake. Brayden has been very helpful with getting and thinking of supplies that we need for Bay, Bay. He and Finley ( Read more... )

Eight years ago today we were dancing with all our friends and family to a wedding band. Too bad it wasn't Taylor Hick's but he was probably like in elementary school. Anyway, it has been 8 years since we tied the knot. A lot has happened in the 8 years. Actually, it seems like a lifetime ago. I asked Sam this morning was he sure it was not our ( Read more... )
