First Day of CDO {2013}

Image
Tuesday was the littles first day back to school. As always I had the "perfect" pictures planned in my head and as always they had their own ideas of how the picture session was going to go....     This is Colt's last year of CDO.. Next year he will be all ready for kinder garden. It really is heart breaking how fast he is growing up.   Oliver was super sweet walking the littles in. He held Lilly's hand the whole time telling her what a great day she was going to have and promising to come back to get her at the end of the day. Lilly went into her room with no problems.   Colt on the other hand, wasn't feeling it. It just broke my heart to leave him like this.   Thankfully when we picked them up he was much more excited about being back at school. They both had a wonderful day.    I had so many plans to make this day super special but unfortunately I have the flu and have been so sick that I can hardly t...

  In June my niece-in-law (Arminda)and great niece (Sara) came to visit from Georgia. Sadly Curtis (my nephew) could not get off work so he was unable to come. It was so great getting to spend some time with these two wonderful girls. My kids and Sara were so funny and cute together. Would of been cuter if we could of got Lilly off the phone for a minute:)    It amazes me how much these two beauties look a like.     This little girl is just so precious. Nothing is sweeter then her little Georgia accent.  I wish more then anything she did not live so far away.     This is one of my favorite pictures. My dad and his granddaughters.

Still trying to get caught up with summer blogging. My internet was acting up so I could not load pictures. Finally Jeff got it fixed. So there will be some old mixed into the what is happening now:)   About a month or so ago Brenna was helping me by bathing the little ones while I finished staining the new textured walls in the dining room. All the sudden I hear Brenna calling me while she is rushing down the stairs with a soaking wet Colt, wrapped in a towel. Amazingly,  he was not really even crying (just a little whimpering) .There hardly was any blood, but the gash was huge. I called the Doctor's office and Nurse Mandy said by the sound of it I needed to take him to the ER.         They were really great at the hospital. While we were admitting him, Brenna started to cry (she was feeling pretty bad about what happened)and a very nice lady at the front desk hugged her. Colt did so good letting every one exam him. ...

I am so far behind on blogging it isn't even funny. So be aware--- I will be bombarding you with post over the next few days. This summer in some ways has been so good and in other ways the most difficult that we as a family has ever had. I will try my best to blog in some kind of order but over all it will be a little scattered so try and keep up..lol..       On Sunday Brenna left for Camp Long Horn today. Jeff, the kids and I along with Steve and Amy met Brenna and her mom at the bus to say good bye. We are so excited that she has the opportunity to attend such a amazing camp. I am looking forward to all the kids getting to attend someday.       Bren with the two most important man in her life. Her Daddy and Uncle Stevie.   Brenna and her mom Me and my girl.    This is one of my favorite pictures. Total sister love.     These three are so funny. The...

Last week I met my new neighbor, Holly, and our friend, Katie {who is also the new Matilda Jane rep her in Midland.. so YES! I love her.Ha!}at the park for a play date. I just love having so many wonderful friends with little ones my childrens ages.      Julz and Lilly are about a year apart in age. They are both total little princesses. I am really looking forward to seeing there friendship grow over the next few years. I am so thankful Lilly has a little girl across the street to grow up with.       I am the LORD your GOD, who teaches you for your benefit, who leads you in the way you should go. Isaiah 48:17
