TGIF

3. I must be crazy!!!

4. Homemade Bread is the best thing I have ever known.

5. My heart is simply full.

6. The last time I laughed really loudly was last night when we had chicken for dinner. Parker sat outside with Jeff and helped him cook, Parker then came inside and asked if we were having hamburgers for dinner.

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to going to the drive-inn, tomorrow my plans include going to Lubbock to go the Science Spectrum and Sunday, I want to do NOTHING!

Happy Anniversary Jeff!!

Jeff and I just celebrated 7 years on Sunday. It was a great day and we spent it with some friends. It is hard to believe all that has happened in 7 years. On Saturday night we were able to celebrate by going to dinner. (thanks Jamie for watching the kids) Jeff has been telling me about this place that has the best onion rings (I love onion rings). They were the best in Texas, no the universe!! They were AMAZING!!! If you ever go to Clear Springs Cafe you have to have the onion rings. But make sure you order the small, the large can feed 3 grown men. It was nice to have an evening without the kids!! Thanks babe for a great 7 years! Thanks for being a wonderful dad to our beautiful kids and thanks for taking such good care of us!! I love you!!

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to game night with friends, tomorrow my plans include going out to dinner with my hubby and Sunday, I want to celebrate my anniversary with my hubby!

Our Garden

I am so excited to finally have "a garden" (If you can call it that). We have 4 tomatoes, lettuce (not big enough to eat) and also many watermelons and cantaloupes. I am hoping for more, but we will have to see, only time will tell!! I am just excited with what we have.

Thanks Paul

Jeff's boss gave Parker this "pitching machine." His kids are grown and they have no use for it. Parker has been busy with it all day and I have loved it!! He is also getting really good. He has informed me that he needs to be signed up for soccer and baseball now. I am just excited that he has something to keep him busy for the next month while we wait for school to start!! (don't you just love the face he pulls when he swings??)

On a side note...check out the grass!! We have a fungus in our grass. I am very frustrated about it. All that work and it now looks like that. We are still doing research to find out what we need to do to fix it. If you have any ideas we would love them!!!

What Parker does when he doesn't want to sleep

Parker came running to the living room and said "mommy you have to come to my room immediately!!" By the way he said it I knew I needed to get there ASAP. This is what I found. At first I wasn't sure what it was, he said that he threw it up there...he didn't mention that he threw it up there over and over. I am just glad it didn't get into the fan.

I couldn't do it...

I have been giving Jeff a hard time about not letting me cut his hair. Well last night he finally gave me the go to do what I wanted, as long as I didn't shave it.(he said he would get sunburned at work, he spends alot of time outside) I got started and trimmed around his neck and ears and then went to cut the rest. I got it wet and started playing with it and I couldn't do it. There I was standing with the scissors in my hand and clippers right in front of me....and I couldn't do it!!! He has the most perfect pin curls (if he will style it). So for now, I am letting him keep it long as long as he is willing to make more of an effort to style it. Most of the time he lets it do its own thing. I am just hoping that he passes that on to that little girl of his, she definitely needs some curl, maybe we should start with hair first, she needs that too!!!
