Christmas Parties!

This week was full of Christmas parties. My class had theirs on Tuesday, Audrey's was on Thursday and Wesley's was Thursday too. I was at all three this year! The kids were very happy.

Audrey's party had a book exchange, and she got the book "I'll love you forever". I've read this book before and it a great book, especially for a mom who has a boy. She was happy with it and we have read it only a million times since Thursday.





Wesley's school had a "Sock Hop" party for the entire 4th grade. Matt decorated his holiday socks for him, not too bad either. He wanted one decorated as Rudolph, and one decorated as Clarice (Rudolph's girlfriend). Good Job Matt! They turned the cafeteria into a dance floor and all of the kids danced for the entire hour. Audrey included. A few of these pictures are of Wesley and Audrey dancing the Tango and him dipping her! It was so cute. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention he did the worm for all of his friends to see....yeah, the worm.

Cold Cold and more freakin' COLD!!!

Hello all...I am freezing my butt off, but we all know this is Texas and tomorrow it will all change. Thank GOD! I tell Matt all the time that Virginia would kill me, and I think he finally gets it after hearing me complain yesterday and today.


So, let's play a little catch up real quick. Last weekend we had our annual cookie baking weekend, and the boys had their (now becoming ) annual weekend camping at Rocky's weekend. And a million cookies later, we are now at home. Oh yeah, and the picture of my haircut is now available...


Audrey had her Christmas program last week. Matt tried to get some pictures, but they didn't work out too well. It was cute though. I didn't get to see it because I was behind the risers with my class.



The kids get out of school this week, and will be out until New Years. They are so excited and so are we! I will be trying to go to Wesley's school party on Thursday, wish me luck...


Love you all. Post more later!

Super Saturday

Wesley had his trophy ceremony today at CiCi's pizza. I know, yummy for the kids, questionable for Mom and Dad. He had a blast though. Coach called him Mr. Defence, he was very proud! Wesley said that he wants to play again next season.
Miss Priss got a haircut today! We have found that less hair equals more attitude...hhmmmmm.
Really though, I think it's cute. When we got home all she wanted to do was look in the mirror. Not much different for her normal routine though! :)







Happy Thanksgiving

First of all. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! We had a great time at Paw Paw and Ya Ya's (Matt's Mom and Dad's) house. Matt's great Uncle Martin came from McKinney, Aunt Lis and Uncle Aaron were there too. We had GREAT food and lots of fun. Audrey says she is thankful for my family, Jesus and God and the whole universe. Wes says he is thankful for his puppy and his family. Matt and I are thankful for each other and a wonderfully blessed, happy and healthy family! We are sorry to have missed everyone else this year, but hopefully we will all be able to see each other at Christmas.

I was not able to get many pictures, only a few of the kids, but here they are.

Soccer Mom?!

Yep, just like it sounds, I joined a soccer team. I think I might be losing my mind. We had our first game last Monday at 11:30 pm. YES, I said 11:30 P. freakin' M. Let's just say that I was practically useless at school on Tuesday (sorry Kathy) we did win though.
Fortunately, this week's game is at 10:45 pm (a whole 45 minutes earlier), and I don't have to work this Tuesday. I really did have fun though, but I was quickly reminded that I am not in High School anymore! So friends, please keep me in your prayers as I go in for another beating tomorrow. Ok, beating is a little harsh...pray for me as I go in for round #2!

I Gotta Hair Cut!

Yep, I cut it all off! I'll post a pic later, but please be kind....more to follow.

Long Time No Blog...

Sorry guys its been so long. So much has happened since I last posted. We made a trip to Ganma's house at the beginning of the month. I was able to get a few cute pictures while we were there. It was just a weekend visit. I went to a friends baby shower while we were there.



Here we are at Ganma's! Audrey is sporting a chocolate milk moustache and Ganma's glasses, and Wesley has his finger up his nose. These shots captures their personalities pretty accurately!



Here they are, on their BEST behavior!




This picture of Abby is hysterical. The kids are hiding under the pool from her and she was going CRAZY trying to get them!


I FINALLY uploaded some pictures Lindsey brought of Matt from back in the day. I thought that there would be some of you guys out there that would like to see them. (Your welcome Rocky, and sorry Matt)



I had to post these pictures of Audrey. The first one is her asleep. Apparently she saw her Aunt La sleeping one time with some blinders on so..........


she found some of her own. This is the Cinderella headband that came with some dress up clothes. Where does this girl come up with this stuff? Oh, and here she is again as "Bat girl". I know, I don't get it either?! But she's pretty darn cute!
