INSTAFRIDAY

linking up the jeannett again this week at life rearranged

yay for INSTAGRAM Friday's!!

Friday after work i took the boys for froyo

it's our favorite treat

saturday morning i had a grocery store helper

he was loading up on kiwi

in the afternoon we took the kiddos to san antonio for their final tournament of the season

and as an orange belt

there is a lot of waiting involved

but the kids are pretty used to it now

they first call the kids to the mats from the stands by age groups

then they line all the kids in the age groups by height

one day this boy will probably be last in line in his age group

he's a tall one

noah and skyler road with us to the tourny

we had two first place winners and two second place winners

good job kiddos!

sunday afternoon after church, lunch and naps we headed to the silvert's for a swim

the kids played in the water for hours

we had a yummy pizza dinner

and called the weekend a wrap

our favorite team advanced in the playoffs

GO SPURS Goooo!

getting closer to another championship!!

oh the sadness of this tragedy

i'm an okie

this happened in my home state

 too close to family

but thankfully they are all safe and sound

much prayer and love for all that are displaced and have lost so much

these two are really into their DS these days

daddy put some tunes on there

a few summers ago

on a plane

anniversary trip

dreaming of another one day

just he and i

they lingered with us a little longer this morning
not wanting to leave for school

wanted me to walk with them

lots of kisses bye and "love you's"

i'm always praying for their safety, comfort and well being when we are apart

and that they learn, place nice, get along, and stay out of the principal's office

oh geez

happy friday!

Yippee! We made it to Friday!

The boy's only have 28 more days of school.

YIKES!!

 

time to plan 11 weeks of care and activities to keep 'em busy!!

 

adam and i had some yummy peaches and cottage cheese for a snack

adam called it old school dessert :)

 

my cowboy's and their stick horses, rowdy and roxy

 

last week's 1st grade program

 

Marisol, Corbin, and Cooper hiding behind his horse

still can't believe i got a front row seat

 

 

we separated the boy's bedrooms this week

it's probably a little over due

but good

really great in fact

 

 

and today is 80's dress up day

i think we pulled it off

i was going for let's get physical meets karate kid :)

i told them how exercise became popular in the 80's

and everyone wore sweatbands, knee highs, rolled up their sleeves and exercised

(at least that's how i remember it)

and we didn't have to go out and buy anything for this dress up

yay!

 

 

happy weekending to ALL!

 saturday me and the boys flew kites they got for easter

at lake kyle. we brought along some old bread to feed the ducks too.

 



 

love this field of bluebonnets i found on the back roads from our house

it's someone's pasture

so i just took pics from the fence

i didn't dare try to plop my kiddos down in the middle of them like i did when they were little

 

 

like we need to be reminded to EAT

but i love the red color in my kitchen

 

 

friday night adam surprised me with an impromptu night out

just the two of us

he even arranged the babysitter

an overnight babysitter :)

i have the best husband

 

 

boy's are studying texas history this last 10 weeks of school

next week they are to dress like cowboys all day

then they are having a program complete with texas songs and stick horses

this boy was super happy with his new pearl snap shirt and cowboy boots

he was NOT a fan of the cheap little hat i bought

he said he wants a REAL cowboy hat

 

 

today they took this book to school to share with their class

the story of the magnificent SAM Houston!

Uncle happens to know the author and illustrator and sent the boy's a signed copy :)

way cool!

great story

thanks Uncle ;)

 she likes to watch the kids play outside.

 

the boy's had their first basketball game on saturday

so fun watching them learn how to play some hoops

they are #3 and #4 on their team

the spurs

whoop!

corbin got the 24 hour bug mid week, and missed his first day of 1st grade

thankfully he is feeling better now...

and slowly getting back his appetite

he likes to read himself to sleep at night

we let him most nights

growing up

 so.much!

i caught him brushing his teeth before bed

  and i think he was only told once

adam baked 7+ dozen brownies last night for the PTA bake sale tonight

i have such a helpful man

thanks babe!
