Special Places

New Library for Seguin!

The new library for Seguin is going to be built on the plot of land where my childhood home once stood.  What a wonderful gift for me, I can go visit whenever I like and this childhood play land will always be appreciated, can't wait to see the progress...

Girls's Weekend

A wonderful weekend with my ACTS Sisters, love love love these girls!

Proud Mommy

all A Honor Roll!!!

Halloween... fun.... uh, NOT!

Here is my sugar love, you can tell by the expression on his face exactly how our Halloween went...

 

Momma failed, epic fail....  I am always in such a hurry to have the perfect costume for my little love that I jump on it right away once he decides, his Aunt Kasey ordered the costume and it took 3 alterations to get it perfect, to us at least...  this is where my epic fail comes in...  I didn't think about him, his age, his friends and I ordered him a baby costume, the other kids his age had the tshirt jeans and mask, he was embarrassed.  I guess I'm still thinking of him as a little kid when he's all grown.  Yes, I think he looks great and adorable but in hindsight I realize he is at that age where kids don't 'do' the jumpsuit costumes anymore. My poor sugar love, my heart just broke because of course his daddy was having none of that pity party. 

 

 

 

And here is my glittery candy corn, who didn't get her afternoon nap, refused to keep her big bow on, hated her tights and whose glitzy dress was 'itchy'...

 

The daddy had a terrible day at work and momma was doing her best to stay calm and keep everyone happy...

 

Ya and thanks a lot to the scary bloody clown we ran into at one of the few houses we went to...  I really enjoyed have to calm down a hysterical ninja turtle....  NICE, save your sicko costumes for parties with no kids present.... 

 

And that was Halloween 2013...

Happy Halloween

It's Halloween!  and I have the pleasure of taking the cutest little piece of Candy Corn and the bravest Ninja Turtle trick or treating tonight...

Be safe everyone...  and I hope you get lots of treats!!!

My cutie, melts your heart....
Cancer SUCKS!!!!

wutttttt!

Disarray, looking down at my bag reflects my mind at this time.

 

My whole family is fighting colds, AND I do mean FIGHTING...  TJ has his full week Chemo next week and my days are Monday and Tuesday, no time for this cold business, I've already lectured my little ones, well Noah at least, about the importance of washing hands, covering mouths, trying as best as possible to stay healthy this winter.  Kylie just looked at me kinda puzzeled, BUT attentive... and all she got from my speech was TJ so she ran around for the next half hour squealing TJ TJ TJ... 

 

I love love love this time of year but have been making myself sick worried about what it means for our guy, colds could be very very bad for him, as much as I love this time of year, I wish I could fast forward to April...

 

Prayers for a healthy winter for our family, especially TJ the Tank...

Silly

Kylie loves girlie things, like colored rubber bands, so we did a crazy do and she loved it...  and her new nightgown...

 

silly girl making life sweet with ribbons, bows, purses, puppies and plenty of questions.
