Red River

So on my mom's birthday look to the post below:) on very short notice we left for the mountains for a celebration. WE decided to go around 2:00 and we were on the road with two kids by about 4:30. Wow that was crazy. But we were off and so very excited. The guys had to stay here for bus. reasons but the mom, the nonee and the kiddos were ready for adventure and believe me adventure we got:)We did all sorts of stuff and the kids just loved it there.
The first day we took a ride on the ski lift to the top of the mountain after being warned there was a 70% chance of rain and it got really cold if it did rain. No problem we put the kids on and took off... well the way up was just beautiful about 30 minutes of pure bliss just hanging out in God's amazing creation and then on the ride down the heavens opened up on us something fierce. It rained and hailed on us like you wouldn't believe, Lawson had been sleeping so sweetly unitl he was awakend by hail beating down on him..oops Not to meniton the lightening and the freezing cold wind that joined the rain. It was for sure a memory made that is all I am saying...
We just really enjoyed our time. We took the kids to play at the park, there was chili cook off with live music to enjoy, Addie Grace and Nonee went on a horseback ride up into the mountains, and Addis0n also did lots of other fun things. We also let the kids play in the rain, and in the river but that didn't last long bc it is really cold there already. It was so relaxing there and just plain good times..

Happy Birthday Nonee!

So my mom had a birthday on Aug. 15th and the kids and I had the honor of taking her to lunch for a greasy burger and some homemade potato fries:) She claims she is 29 but that is getting a little weird since her youngest child (me) is going to be 30 in March. But we will let her believe what she wants:) I am so blessed to have such an incredible mom and the kids are so very blesssed to have such an over the top Nonee... she is a blessing in everyway. She is all that you desire to be as a mom. She has been there without fail and continues to give of herself to us everyday in the most unselfish way. She is such an important part of our lives and she brings us lots of joy. We love you Mom and Nonee:)

Little Man has taken off :)

So while we were gone (of course) Lawson decided he would go ahead and take off walking. He is still looking a little drunk but he is getting more confident all the time and really looking cute. He was fifteen months last week so it is really about time:) Sorry for the sideways pics but couldn't figure how to turn them you get the point thought..he is cute and that is all you need to know:)

Bahamas

So Larry and I just got back about two weeks ago from an amazing trip to the Bahamas. It was just perfect... we had an incredible time just the two of us. It was a great break and we just couldn't have had more fun. We are so grateful to God for the blessings he is constantly giving us. I am going to attach some pics of the hotel we stayed at (The Atlantis Cove Tower) and then go to the link below for all the pics and some video Larry has put together.

Happy Birthday Daddy!

So I am behind bc it has been way crazy but Aug. 3rd was Larry's bday and it was great. We went to Amarillo with Mom and Jake and the kiddos and ate a great meal on his actual bday. Then the party kept going on Sat. we had some friends over for a backyard cookout. Larry grilled and did great and we all had a great time. Addison felt sorry for him, she asked "how many people are coming to your party, Daddy?" Larry told her only a few and she replied "man Daddy, you really don't have very many friends do you..." Leave it to kids to tell it like it is:) We never have a dull moment with her....pics are coming soon

Kansas City

Larry and I went to a training in KC last weekend. WE had a blast, the training was great the parties were really fun as usual and we enjoyed being with our team. We had a great team of club owners there and future club owners. WE are so thankful everday for this exciting new venture within our Herbalife business. Enjoy the pics

Patio Project

Ok so my husband is the man!!!! I have beening wanting a pretty patio area in our backyard for awhile now and Larry did it:) He got on the internet and became an expert on patio building and then we gathered the materials. Well the rest of the story is that we could now be on HGTV... they got nothin' on us:) So it took us a couple of days and we now have a great patio and the kids and I have been outside almost everyday since to enjoy it.... Thanks Larry your the best.... WE have some more work to do out there (landscaping...planting... concrete work off the door..) but the major job is done.. and it looks perfect:)

Swimming Lessons

WARNING: THIS BLOG IS GOING TO CONTAIN MAJOR BRAGGING ABOUT MY CHILD:) So you can't say I didn't warn you but seriously the girl is good... The swim teacher at the country club just really went on and on about her. She told all the parents on parent watch day not to compare their children to her on any level. That she swam as if she were 8 or 9. She sais she has alot of physical strength and incredible form. She also had her diving although she didn't work with the other kids. She does swim incredible. So we will see if she continues being so interested. We are considering putting her on a diving team in Amarillo... It is so incredible to watch your kids grow and excel in the skills God has given them:)
