Our trip to the Coast

We had alot of fun at the coast. It was the kids first time to go and they loved it. The weather was awesome and they got to play alot on the beach.  Here are a few pictures.

The kids got wet and then found sand dunes to roll down. It was a mess but they had a blast!

Delana writing her name in the sand.

Jacey helped Kyle with his name.

Curtis and the kids built a sand pyramid.

Jacey eating in bed with her ipod. LAZY!

 

As you can see we had fun. Unfortunately friday night Kyle woke up and got in bed with me and he was burning up. So we left early saturday morning since he was begging to come home. He and I are getting to stay in today and hoping he gets better soon.

Noise Pants

I just had to share this. Last night after I gave Kyle a bath I was putting clothes on him. He got upset and said “Mommy I want to wear the noise pants!”  I said the “What???” He said “Noise Pants” he then dug in his draw and pulled out some windpants! It was so cute. He walked around yesterday evening walking fast in his noise pants just to show people they made noise! lol

I think I am going cross eyed

I have been looking online for about 5 hours today for Delana’s flower girl dress for Jacey’s wedding. She isn’t sure what she wants but has the style so I have been lookiing for style’s then looking for cheap ones. Anyway I am sick on looking. I can tell you about many styles now. lol

Singing tonight

Tonight is our monthly singing at church. I always look forward to this night. After the singing we are having our hamburger cookout. I had to go get my buns and meat after church this morning and Curtis took me out to eat at Jonny Carinos. It was really good. Then he took us to Baskin Robbins. We had out A+ card and was able to get stuff for really cheap. The kids thought that was a blast!

We have had a super busy weekend. Friday night was Lorien and Rohans birthday party. I did the cake for that so my day friday was busy working on that and getting housework done.  Saturday morning I went and helped Melissa set up for the Brazos company picnic. That night we had the picnic. It was inside the H.O.T. coliseum and they had volleyball, face painting, a guy drawing us and doing it cartoon style (no idea what they are called), there was also a huge air slide and jumping thing that also had a slide there. The kids loved it.

Busy

We have been really busy around here. It really is no more than usual but it seems like it. We had out last night of co-op for the semester monday night. It was fun. We all had supper together and then some of the classes has presentations to do. Delana’s manners class did some chants they had learned.

Here is a picture of Delana last week doing her home economics. She learned to use the toaster and made cinnimon toast. When Sherman and Inez where here this past weekend she got to make them some for breakfast. She thought that was really great. This week she learned about cracking eggs and using the stove. She made scrambled eggs for lunch.

Short update

Nothing new to post really. Kyle is still sick but only has a low fever and still coughing alot.  I am really hoping he will be better tomorrow since we have a haircut and speech appt. He missed speech tuesday because he was sick. I guess if he is still sick tomorrow we will just miss this week totally of speech since she is booked already. I am just ready for him to get better.

I started trying to figure out what we needed for 1st grade today.  Not that I pan to get it now but just figuring out what we need so maybe I can find it cheap online somewhere. I have some of it already.

Rather Large purchase

We have been wanting to get a bigger vehicle for some time now and I have been studying them online. Yesterday we just went and looked at a couple to decide what we wanted to get later on. We ended up buying one! LOL It was rather sudden. We found a 2004 Honda Odyssey. It was a fully loaded one with a build in dvd player, automatic sliding doors you can open from the remote and the drivers seat. It was way cool. Low miles and great price. We liked the look of the newer models starting in 2005 but the 2004 was alot cheaper. I feel so weird driving a so much bigger vehicle now. It gets about 25 mpg. Not bad for a van.

We went to the Mayborn Museum today and took Ryan and Meredith. The kids had a blast. Kyle started feeling bad while we were there He now has fever and started sounding hoarse and coughing like Delana was doing last week. Looks like I will be in with a sick one for a few days unless he is fever free tomorrow. Delana was sick for about 5 or 6 days with fever so I am hoping he will have a short go of it.
