photo of the week #6…

was taken on March 1, 2005. You were a little over two and a half years old and thought it was the funniest thing when you put those glasses on Jadon. He wasn’t quite sure about the whole incident, but you definitely were. Sweet memories…

our little eight-legged friend…

survived this encounter. But I can promise she (and it was a ’she’, or at least aggressive like a ’she’) won’t be so lucky next time.
Me and the kids were doing a little exploring right behind the garage and found this nice little friend. Lucky for her I was ignorant and thought BLACK WIDOWS were [...]

houston, there’s not a problem anymore…

these native Texans have now been CONVERTED!!
Yup! Starting this college season, they’ll be CALLING THE HOGS! :)

Oh wait… I can hear it now…

Wooooooo, PIG…SOOIE…RAZORBACKS!

if the guitar fits…

play it!
You absolutely love your new *little* guitar. You are very careful to put it in its case EVERY time you move it-even if it’s just from one room to another!

When we went outside today you were very upset because you couldn’t take it with you. In fact, you were very sneaky and found your [...]

now that’s a big honkin’

shroom! Found it out back…

but no smurfs in sight. :(

the CUTEST thing…

happened to you in Wal-mart tonight. We were in produce perusing the picked over bananas when an a.d.o.r.a.b.l.e, free-spirited little 3 or 4 year old girl came running toward us shouting “Hey!” as if she knew us.  With an admiring smile and a gleam in her eye she walked right up to you.
Since we had [...]

just an ordinary ole day…

after an assiduous first week of home school and a bit of sickness (luckily only me-so far).
The sporadic weather here lately has really provided some interesting opportunities while at the same time it has taken others. There’s only so much you can do outside when it’s raining and raining enough that water is standing and [...]

burning the midnight oil…

was a great way to end a dreary day. With overcast skies and alternating rain and drizzle all day, it was difficult to get motivated to do much of anything (quite the contrast to the bionic woman of yesterday). :-) We did get several things done, but I seriously think the weather affected my mood [...]

going back to school…

as a child was always a bit nerve racking for me. I suppose it was the fear of the unknown. Would I like my teachers? Would they like me? Would I do well in their classes? The list could go on…and on…and on. But with home schooling, my kids don’t really have that anxiety. Not [...]

i say that time flies…

not only when you’re having fun, but also when you’re growing up and old together, when you’re fighting and learning to work it out together, when you’re striving for the same goals and fulfilling your dreams together, when you can’t get enough of each other, and when you’re falling in love more and more every [...]
