Lost again

Don't mind the disaster!!! I could barely even recognize him in this mess. He blended in so well. We all looked and looked and then out the corner of my eye there he was. My kids have always gone and fallen asleep in the weirdest places and in the weirdest or most uncomfortable positions. I go looking when it gets really quiet!!

Mother's Day

Okay...so don't tell but we have been treating ourselves to dinner ( out to eat ) for the past couple of years on Mother's Day....do you really think that any of us ladies want to cook or that the guys would for that matter? This year we went to Texas road house. It was yummeeee!!
I know, I know..We really don't look that happy in this picture but the sun was so bright and Maddie was taking forever to take the picture!

This is a little bit better, although I look like I am being a camera hog. I was a hog at dinner too!

This is my Grahms, she is my Momma's Mom. My kids just love her as so do I. I have always looked up to her. Like every old lady she is really good at sewing, quilting, knitting, baking, Genealogy, rocking babies and spoiling. When I was growing up she we would often have me over for the whole weekend all by myself and I would help with dusting and farm stuff. Us kids have some of the best memories at Grahms house.

This is my Momma and boy does she drive me crazy but you know what I wouldn't trade her for any other Mother. I have such admiration for this Woman, she has molded me in to being such a great Mother ( well I think any way ) and Wife. She is the one that keeps us together business and family wise. She is such a compassionate, sweet caring Woman. She is stressed 90% of the time but always seems to have hugs and kisses for my kids. She will go out of her way to help any one. She really is one of my closest and dearest friends and I can go to her for anything. I love you Momma!

My children spoiled me as usual. I got a necklace from Tyler, a ring from Bubba and some earrings from Maddie. They know that I can't get enough jewelry. I was offered breakfast in bed but declined it ( before it was made ) because that meant that I had to get up even earlier. ( Church is at 9:00 AM ) I loved the kids singing at church..I mostly love seeing Bubba pick his nose the whole time while attempting to sing. Oh, and Maddie waves to me...or maybe she waves at her Dad. I had a wonderful Mother's Day and I hope the rest of you did as well.
I love being a Mom..That is the BEST gift!

race for the cure

Million's of people ( okay maybe not millions...more like thousands ) came out for the annual Race for the Cure. We had quite a big group come together to support my Aunt Karen ( A.K.A. Grandma KaKa ). She has been a breast cancer survivor for 12 years now. I am so proud of her and enjoy this annual event, I am glad that I can support her and all the others that have passed on or are fighting or cured. Go cure go cure go!!! ( my Aunt Karen in the pink next to me )

mini reunion....


Rob, Cristina, Adam, Mindy,Shane, KayDee & Jeff
So grateful for Face Book. I know some of you may be rolling your eyes just at the word Face Book but I truly have been grateful for it. I have found some long lost friends. It has been so nice getting reacquainted with them and seeing how every one has grown up.
This small group I have know for such a long time. Shane I have known since 4th grade and the others since Jr. High. We were able to coordinate thru Face Book to get together for dinner. I had so much fun and every one looked great. I haven't laughed like that for a long time. It was as if time never passed. I can't wait to get together again.
I miss then already.
I recommend joining :)
