La-Di-Da has kicked off

So where have I been? In a whirlwind. As some of you know, my friend Lori and I have started a new business. We are making kids clothes. It is very fun, but we have been very busy. I am definitely not complaining, I am just not sure where I have been. We have had 2 parties that have been great successes and many orders pouring in. We are so greatful. I will attach some of my favorite pics, so if you ever need a baby gift or just some cute clothes, let me know.

On to my precious boys. We have two very exciting things to talk about. Luke registered for kindergarten. He is very excited. I am kind of sad, but I know that he is ready. He is finishing baseball and soccer for the season and we are getting ready for summer. Now to Mr. Jake...he is officially potty trained!! Hooray. I was going to wait until the summer, but Jake has a mind of his own. I did not fight it and he is doing great. I figured he would be 5 before we potty trained. He is a ball of energy. Yesterday we went to lunch after church, there were over 20 of us, so the older kids sat at a different table. He sat with the older kids. I look down at the table and he is standing up, grabbing the ketchup bottle and starts to squeeze. All the kids are laughing out of control. I thought he squeezed the ketchup onto a plate. Oh no, he squeezed it into a kid's hand. What do you do , but laugh. I don't know. He is a little mess, but one that I love so much.

Happy Easter

I hope you all had a great Easter. We had a really fun weekend. We actually started by dying eggs on Wednesday. Saturday we went to an egg hunt for Prestonwood North. Luke had fun doing sack races, egg races, and bouncing on the bounce house. Jake played games also, but had more fun cracking the eggs with his feet and sneaking the candy before the egg hunt. Sunday morning we gave the boys their Easter baskets, from us not the Easter Bunny, and went to church. We went to lunch at Don and Tricia's and had an egg hunt there. Then we stopped by to say hello to Scott's Papa Leflar. On we went to my aunt Debbie's house for dinner and yet another egg hunt. The funny thing about all of it is Jake would find the first egg, stomp on it, eat the candy and be finished. He loves his candy. Church was awesome and I am so thankful we are able to celebrate Easter and that Jesus rose again.

The start of spring break

What a great start to Spring Break..for Luke that is. We had never taken the boys to Rainforest Cafe and we had a gift card, so we thought what a fun idea. Jake hated it, if you can't tell. He spent the first half of our trip hanging as far over our shoulders as possible. He hated the gorilla that they sat us right under. Every time it went off he would freak out. Luke had so much fun. They did both enjoy the firecracker dessert. Seriously though $13 for a brownie and ice cream. My brownies taste much better than theirs, oh but I did eat it though. Have a good Spring Break.

Palm Sunday

Yesterday at our new church, Prestonwood North, we celebrated Palm Sunday. Palm Sunday was when Jesus rode into the city and people put there coats on the ground and praised him singing Hosannah. Well in church we were singing Hosannah, while this video played scenes of what it might have been like. All of the sudden I see palm branches waving down the middle isle. It was children and teachers waiving palm branches and singing. I don't know if the kids really new the exact words, but it did not matter. The thought of these innocent children praising Jesus and singing hosanna brought tears to my eyes. That is what it was like. No matter what, people just wanted to praise Jesus. Then as the song ends and the children are leaving I see that my precious Luke is one of the kids. All day yesterday he was waving his palm branch and singing Hosannah. He loves Jesus and that makes me so happy. We are really trying to stress what Easter means and this was a great way to start the week of Easter. If you do not have a church to go to, I would like to invite you to Prestonwood North. We love it. You can check out the web at prestonwood.org/north. Happy Easter Week. Let's all put our eyes on Jesus during this very special week.

It snowing in Prosper

So what a week it has been. Monday, the snow came hard in Prosper. Tuesday the snow melted in Prosper. Wednesday, it was 70 degrees in Prosper, Thursday it snowed and snowed and snowed in Prosper. I have never seen snow flakes that big. The boys had so much fun. It took Scott 2 hours to come home, so the boys were more than ready to go play. Jake just wanted to eat the chocolate chips we were using for the mouth. Yes, I know we were stretching for things to make a snowman. Who new we would get snow ever that much in Prosper.

Hodge Podge

Hey guys,

I have not posted in forever. The new year has come and gone. I really made no resolutions, but Scott and I did start Weight Watchers and have stuck to it pretty well, except for the weekend. We save our extra points and our cheat day for the weekend. We have a small party over here for new years, everyone was gone before 11, how old are we. We played 1980's Trivial Pursuit. It was so much fun...

I am not even sure what all we have been doing this month. I am working on starting a new business with one of my friends. We are making girl clothes. They are turning out so cute. I don't think my boys would look cute in them, so I guess we will have to dress our friend's kids.

Jake has made the transition to his big boy room. He is getting better, but the first week was kind of crazy. The first day of nap he pulled his dresser on top of him and was pinned. Crazy boy!! He was trying to get the stuffed deer head hanging on his wall above his dresser. If he could just sleep all night in the bed, we would be doing a little better. He goes to sleep fine, just comes to see me in the middle of the night. It was kind of sad taking all of the baby stuff down, but the room looks awesome. so if you need any baby stuff, all of mine if for sale.

This weekend was a fun weekend for Luke and Jake. Jake went to Granna and Papaw's for a sleepover on Friday night. Luke went to Friday Night Frenzie at the gym was some friends. That means Beth and Scott got to eat dinner with adults and no kids jumping over and under the table. Saturday Luke went to his good friend, future wife's, bday party at the bounce house. My parents had said they wanted to take the boys to the stock show in FT. Worth on Saturday, so I thought instead of having another grown up day, Scott and I should go to. It was fun, but it would have been more fun if we had not gone right in the middle of Jake's naptime. No nap for a almost 2 year old is not the best of times, but by the end, the little Cowboy decided to have fun. My parents had taken Luke a couple of years ago and bought him his first Cowboy hat, so they did the same for Jake. I do have to say I think I have the cutest little Cowboys around.
