Random....again

Just so that you don't forget who the other sister is on this blog, I will give you a random list of my life in the last week!

***Anna decided she can swim without her floaties. She is jumping off the diving board and swimming in the deep end now. Oh, if she would only decide she could do a couple of other things!

***Samuel is getting ready for a ball tournament and boy scout camp. He has a jammed thumb but insists he is fine.

***On our flight to Orlando the TSA checked my checked baggage. While doing so they unzipped my makeup bag and took the lid off of my brand new full can of hairspray. When I got the bag after the flight it reeked of hairspray. The bottle was completely empty after spewing its contents on Stephen's shorts and shirts. His only casual clothes for the trip.

***Somehow my clothes were unharmed but lay right next to his. I had to go buy another can of hairspray

***Yes, we went shopping for some casual clothes.

***I still haven't developed any Disney pictures. But they are all on cd's.

***Next week I get to do some lovin' on a baby boy! I'm so excited!!!

***I got a new pink purse. I love it! My boys hate it!

***I have brown blotches on my jaw line. I'm pretty sure it has to do with age. I'm pretty sure I'm aging. I'm pretty sure I thought I would do it a bit more graceful.

***David is on a drawing kick. He is drawing pictures of wars, farmland, beach scenes, and Fanta ads. He would be glad to sell you one.

***Daniel is sleeping in the bottom bunk with David. I don't know why. You would think there wouldn't be much room on a twin bed for two nine year old boys. But, they love it. And I do too.

***The list is over now. I can't think of anything else. My mind is full of what I need to get ready for the school year (we'll start the first of August), my friends and their struggles, and the rest of mind, I guess, is just empty. Sad, but I think true. The heat has burned up my brain!

Real quiet around our house after the departure of the fab 4. I would love for them to come again in a couple of years.

All Aboard The Birthday Polar Express

  Can you believe Henry Patton will be 4 years old tomorrow?! Neither can we. We celebrated his birthday last weekend with his first all boy party, polar express style. I had so much fun preparing for it, as you can probably tell! My mother who is never at a loss for words said it looked like Polar Express threw up in my house. She was SO right and we loved it! We had a breakfast pajama party with 7 three and four year old boys. It was such a fun time.   I had his pajamas monogrammed with a train and his name. He loved them and I liked how they sort of looked like the ones on the movie. Henry loved all the bells I had everywhere. There is no doubt we believe at this house. We had the jingle loud and proud!   I had his invitation made from a shop on Etsy and I was very pleased with them. One of his little friends came to the door ready for me to punch his ticket. It was so cute. I ran to get a hole punch and punched it for him. Every good p...

Meet Shaun

This is my single co-worker and church friend, Shaun. He and I have so much fun bantering back and forth. He takes what I dish out and scoops it right back up and hands it back to me. He is a keeper for that and many other reasons, which I will share on this post. He was kind enough to allow me to highlight him on Kelly’s Korner http://www.kellyskornerblog.com/ for her singles link up. His last words to me about this were, “ This better not be an embarrassment! ” I trust I will do my best to make it not be, but I make no promises! The first thing you need to know about Shaun is that he loves Jesus and the Boston Red Sox . He asked Jesus into his heart at age 8 and is still seeking and serving him today at age 26. Shaun graduated from Arkansas State University with a degree in digital media and design. When he is not busy creating masterpieces for our customers he is hiking, watching the Red Sox , playing basketball, horsing around at the lake or beach, and watching movies. He is fu...
