Happy Mother's Day!


Mother's Day is like another birthday to me! :) It's one of my favorite days of the year! And this year it was even better, thanks to the preschool! They had a "Mother's Day Tea" celebration! I took pics....I love my babies....and the hubster! He got me a printer, paintshop photo software, and my laptop and some other goodies are on their way in the mail! YAY! May is my favorite month! So....Happy Mother's Day to all my Mommy friends, Happy Mother's day to my Momma and my Momma in law, Happy Birthday to my babies (17th) and Happy 6th Anniversary to me and Chance(22nd)! I LOVE MAY! :)
Jaxon and his Miss Cindy!
Madi and her Miss Tallie!
The cutest little picture holders EVER!
My loot! Two picture holders, a place mat made
by my baby boy, and a corsage made by my baby girl!
perfect.......

Do you ever sit around and worry about things that you really shouldn't worry about anymore? Well I do...I wonder if people are really my friends or if their just being "spies" so to speak for some old friends. Should you cut ties with people because of who they're friends with? Or should you just hope and pray for the best? Last time I did that I got burned...lol. BAD. My Daddy always said guilt by association or you are the company you keep....is that true? hmmmm.... Anywho---I ran into an old "friend" this last weekend...she looked like she was going to have a slight panic attack...and that made me sad. I didn't even say anything to her...I just caught her out of the corner of my eye, practically running from the restaurant we were at. I didn't do anything to her. I actually barely knew her. But she looked at me like I was going to jump on top of her table and kick her in the face. I'm not a violent person...unless provoked...lol...so I don't know what would give her that idea??? I would love to know some of the stories floating around about me now....maybe that would explain it. Anywho---just my random thought for the day.

Pool Days...

Step one: acid wash

Step 2: check out the awesome sky...lol
Step 3: wash again, then pressure wash....


Step 4: Leave your wife to the painting...


O.M.G. Never have I hurt as badly as I do today. Have you ever painted a 15 x 31 foot pool with rubber cement?? Cause I did yesterday and it SUCKED! I will never ever ever EVER do that again. Not for all the money in the world. But it's done, and it looks great!

Texas in February...

I love Texas...and miss it more than anything. But one thing I don't miss is the extreme weather changes. The panhandle has been getting horrible snow for a while before we got there, so I was ecstatic that the weather let up for a while. The kiddos got to play in the snow for the very first time! And by the end of the week they were driving Madi's new Princess car around the backyard! LOL! So here are a few pics...and you know I'll have to give captions...lol...so hang in there...lol


Madi all geared up and ready for the snow!


Her very first snowball!!



Jaxon trying really hard to get his Daddy with a snowball! (checkout that
background....wide open spaces...how I miss you!)

Running for the ditch! Literally...they knew
the snow was deeper out there...lol



This was the cutest thing EVER. Jaxon ran out
front and fell flat on his back, giggled and started saying
excitedly "I MAKE SNOW ANGEL!!!"
"I MAKE SNOW ANGEL!" wow....what a great day! :)


Madi's new car! She told everyone in
Canyon that Go-Go bought her a new car...LMAO!

She wasn't so good a driving it...so she let brother take
a shot..hehehe...he
chauffeured her around for a bit.


This is my very best friend Ben. He's stuck
with me through thick and thin.... love you.


And this is my other very best friend Nathan! Madi is mildly obsessed with him....like won't leave him alone, stalks him when he's around....HAHAHAH!!! She looooooves her Uncle Nathan...lol
I don't have a picture of Jenny and Justin....but we did get to meet them for Pizza at Pizza Planet....yummmmo! She is prego and expecting her baby in September!!! I'M SO DANG EXCITED!!!! YAYAYAYAYAYAYA!!!


And of course....last but not least...the love
of my life...being a jackass as always.... ;)

I wouldn't know what to do otherwise...lol

PUPPIES!

HA! We sent our dogs here...and they came back like this....

I couldn't believe the progress the dogs made in just one week. Now, a week later, they are home and are even better! I truly do believe that Harlan has a God given talent and I'm so glad that he blesses us with it. His methods may be a little different, but they aren't cruel. Which is a double bonus in my book. I'm following through with everything he has taught me and I'm going to keep it up. You wouldn't believe how nice it is just to take my dogs on a walk!! So thanks Harlan...I truly do appreciate it!
