I am living

So I know I am shocking a lot of people, if they are still reading. It has been a whirlwind of a few months. I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas. I am only going to update with a couple of pics, because Blogger takes entirely too long. Luke was baptized the Sunday before christmas, so excited about that!! The boys were so much fun this Christmas. Jake was so excited and wore Santa's hat and made everyone sit on his lap and tell Santa what they wanted. Oh yeah and the week before Christmas Prosper football won state. Go Eagles!!

Hey Courtney, I know I have not blogged. I have so many things to blog about...Luke's bday, pumpkin patches, Tech VS A&M. Blogger is so slow I have not patience. So I will blog in response to your tag. Courtney, one of my great friends, although she left us for Lubbock, tagged me to put the 6th picture in my 6th folder of pictures so here it is....This is Luke on his 2nd Christmas. He was 14 months. I am looking at how new my kitchen floor looked. We had only lived in our house for 3 months. Man, I guess I need to call Dalworth for a good tile and grout cleaning.

Hopefully I can set aside a little time to blog about my preious Luke turning 6 and my sweet Jake going to his first pumpkin patch. Stay tuned. Miss you Courtne!!

How much fun I have had decorating girl clothes for the holidays!! I absolutely love my new company. Here are some fun pics of some of the clothes. If you are interested, keep checking the website. We are about to add several new things, some for older girls. Very cute. We also have leggings and tights now. The website is ladidaclothing.com.

We are playing football

If you know anything about my family, the boys love sports. I am pretty sure it is because their daddy is a sports maniac. So Luke is finally playing football. Everyone is so excited. He absolutely loves it!!! Scott loves it. He even missed his yearly hunting trip with his college buddies so he could be at football. Anyways Luke's official first game was this weekend. It was raining, but as I am told you don't cancel football for rain. Luke loved every bit of it. And I have to say he was pretty cute, but don't tell him I said that.

Prosper Homecoming

I absolutely love Prosper. I am sure many of you have heard me say that before. This week was homecoming in Prosper. Because we are still a 1 high school town, the whole town celebrates. I think I get into this so much because we had multiple schools in Garland, so we did not have anything like this. Anyways, Monday was pajama day, Tuesday was jersey day, Wednesday was dress head to toe in one color, Thursday was wacky day, Friday was Go Green/spirit day. We also had early release for the parade on Friday. We have been to the parade all 5 years that we have lived here, but this year Luke was in the parade. He had so much fun. We then went to the Pep Rally, and the game later that night. Of course we had dinner at the Cotton Gin and saw tons of people we knew. I never thought I would love being a small town girl!! I know it is growing, but when we moved here there were only 2500 people. Love it!!!

Jake's first trip to a Tech game

Last weekend, we took the boys to the Tech game. We try to take them to at least 1 a year. This is the first year Jake made the trip. He did really good. They had so much fun. Some of our good friends, the Edwards, just moved back to Lubbock, so we stayed with them, minus Courtney, who was seeing her sister before she left for 6 months. I missed you Courtney. Anyways, the boys were super excited to see the girls, they are the same age and always have fun together. Luke was so funny, we arrived at Raider Ally before the game and Luke asked "where is Kevin?" "Who, I asked?" "Kevin, the guy that rides the horse!!" He remembered the guys name from last year like he was his best friend. Pretty funny. On our way home he asked if we could stop for a pizza sandwich. For our Tech friends, that would be a calzone from One Guys. He has had one every year since he was 2, but I guess he now realizes how good a One Guy Calzone really is. Don't you love their Crabtree hats? Go Tech!!

First Day of Kindergarten

I cannot believe Luke has gone to kindergarten. How crazy is that. He is so excited. He has a wonderful teacher. She is so sweet. I had prayed for a great teacher, and God answered my prayer. This has been a big step. Yesterday I cried so much. I prayed that Luke would not me be sad and today I did not shed a tear. We had a big weekend leading up to the big day. We had Luke's best friend Reece's birthday and then last night our street had an ice cream party to celebrate school starting. How many kids can get on one trampoline, really. We have a great neighborhood. I hope everyone has a great first week.

Any advice for a 2 year old?

Two questions...

1. How do you get a 2 year old to look at the camera? Courtney this one if for you, Korley always takes great pictures.

2. What do you do with a strong willed 2 year old? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

So we had a very busy weekend and this week looks even wilder. We started off Thursday night by going to kindergarten orientation. No, I did not cry, but was trying really hard. Luke saw so many friends and was running circles. He bought spirit wear and has been very proud to wear his Eagle shirts. Friday, Scott's parents came to town, so we went to dinner with them. Saturday we went to Rainforest Cafe for Adi's birthday. Sunday we went to church with the G's because Adi was baptized. Talk about amazing, her dad was able to baptize her. It was the sweetest thing ever. We went to lunch and swimming, to follow up the night with an outing to the Roughriders game. Scott and I had just been saying we had not gone and some friends of ours invited us to go. I had plans for the night, but went to the game and girls picked me up at the game. Luke was asked to go on the field to play a game. He had to race to get his shoes, put them on, tie them, and run back. To bad we are horrible parents and have not taught him to tie his shoes. They were actually supposed to be 6, but they let Luke play since he is almost 6. Well when I left our strong will Jake wanted to drink Dr. Pepper. Scott tried to grab the cup and there went the DP, all over Scott. We had fun though. We are going to have fun all week with my last week of 2 kids at home. If you hear someone crying next Monday, it will probably be me.
