Baby News - Baby Blues



Baby News - Baby Blues... I have them both. The news is they are both growing healthy and strong. Look at these adorable faces. The Blues - I was sick over the weekend and didn't get to see or babysit Brody. Jeremiah, Kasey & Mabry were in Snyder, TX this weekend househunting. Jeremiah has accepted a job as an Academic Advisor at the Community College and they will be moving in June. Matt, Jaclyn & Brody spent Saturday at Branson Landing having a good time shopping. I was hoping to babysit on Sunday but things didn't work out but I'm excited about next time. I pretty much spent my weekend on the couch - running a temp and coughing. Uck!! What a waste of a beautiful weekend.

Raiding the hive


This picture reminded me that when I was a child my father used to keep bees. It was a big deal when he "raided" the hives because we would have fresh honey. My mom would always make a pan of biscuits for dinner and we would have biscuits and honey. Now I make the biscuits but we have to buy our honey at the farmer's market. It is still yummy but not the same. Sometimes I think our memories are not that accurate - somethings we remember much better than they were and some thing much worse. Anyway - this picture brought back some good memories.

Bedtime Story


This weekend we watched Bedtime Stories with Adam Sandler. Now I like Adam Sandler and have seen several of his movies - Big Daddy, Anger Management, Happy Gilmore to name a few. This movies was a calmer version of Adam Sandler. It was fairly funny and entertaining. It didn't have the obnoxious Adam Sandler but still contained the immature Adam Sandler. It seems like he just can't grow up and perhaps that is what appeals to many people who watch his movies. He appeals to the kid in all of us. I enjoyed seeing Courtney Cox again and miss her and Friends. The movie was enjoyable and as always the good guy wins in the end. If you want an enjoyable movies that will make you laugh - try Bedtime Stories.

Easter weekend


We enjoyed the weekend with our sons and their families. Jeremiah, Kasey and Mabry came in on Thursday night and left on Sunday. We got to spoil Mabry for the weekend. Saturday night we all gathered at our house for dinner. Matt, Jaclyn and Brody joined us and we had a great time. The Easter bunny came for everyone bringing candy, stuffed rabbits for the kids and gift cards for the adults. These weekends are so wonderful and I cherish each of them. We are so thankful for the times we can be together as a family. Love you guys.

Easter Week

Well - this is Easter week and it will be a busy one. Even though we only have four days of work this week I'm trying to cram six days into it. Jeremiah, Kasey and Mabry are going to be here on Thursday. Yeah!! Can't wait to see them. We haven't seen them since January and are so excited. Matt, Jaclyn and Brody will be joining us for a family Easter dinner on Saturday night. We plan on seeing them more than just Saturday night but that is on "official" dinner. Can't wait to have my whole family all together again. These times are very special and getting harder to come by. I'm sure I will have lots of pictures next week on my blog. Stay tuned. Have a wonderful, happy Easter.
