Daybook

Daybook Entry

In the great outdoors...it was a pretty day. The kids played outside. It got windy this evening though, my hair was all over the place at Samuel's ball game.

Within our walls...We're making spring break plans, it's all we've been talking about.

A heart of thanksgiving...I've been thankful for memories today. I have so many good memories with friends and family. They make me smile.

Random observations...My yoga pants have helped me conceal some weight gain this winter. I'm going to need to work on this!

My silly children...Stephen loves the Despicabale Me movies. Actually, he loves the minions. Anna told him that she could be his personal fart gun. I can't even believe she said it as I type it. Where did my sweet little girly girl go? I almost cried when she said it, Stephen felt a new kinship with her. 

Thoughts from my kitchen...Tonight was French bread pizzas. An easy meal, that everyone prepares themselves!

Projects...It's about time to get the Summer clothes out. I know it's not warm yet, but I'm getting tired of wearing the same thing all the time.

Sounds of the moment...It's later in the day than I usually write this. The kids are in bed. Stephen, Samuel, & I are watching the Razorback game, keeping it kind of quiet.

A favorite thing from last week...Samuel played in a baseball tournament last weekend. Thursday night I texted Daddy during the game. I can't tell you what joy it brought me texting about Samuel playing baseball with him!

On my calendar...I'm getting my hair colored tomorrow! Woo-Hoo!

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...
