TGIF!
Well, Friday is finally here and wow am I excited. Today has been a lot of fun. I took the boys to the Drop and Shop at the YMCA and spent some time alone! OMG, I had no clue what to do. So, I got my nails done, brows done, went shopping at Target, Sallys and ended up having lunch with some of the neighbors. It was a really strange day bc I couldn't figure out what I wanted to do with 4 hours of FREE time. It actually was very nice bc I didn't have to worry with someone wanting something or taking too long to get somewhere, I just did my thing! I will definitely take advantage of this program again. I love the people that work w/ the kids at the Y, Richard and Sharon are the best and love the boys, so I am very comfortable with them being there. I picked them up and they came home and went right down for a nap, so I did some catch up work on the computer and cleaned. Now we are ready for the weekend. We are hanging out tonight with some of the old neighbors and then riding motorcycles tomorrow and chilling on Sunday. I am ready, in a great mood and love life!

WAY TO GO GIRLS!!!!
Well Savannah and her little group made it to perform in the End of the School Year Dance. They only had 2 7th Grade groups make it and they were one of them. WAY TO GO GIRLS! We are so proud of you.
They choreographed their routine themselves.

Updates....
Well, let's see.......it never fails with a household of 6 that we would be busy as all get out, but we are. We are getting ready for the weekend, which will be motion packed.....with Brooke going to her Dad's, Savannah going on a church retreat with a friend and then Dwayne and I taking a ride through the back roads with our friends on Saturday on the motorcycles. Then he has started cooking crawfish again on Sundays, just a little earlier. So today, I am doing my usual weekly house work (try to keep it up) and then getting the girls ready for the weekend. We are also trying to find a babysitter for Saturday (that is always the hardest part for us). We can make plans all the time, but it's very hard to get babysitters anymore that you can trust. We had one but she has seem to slip away and likes to be on the computer a lot more. So, starting over.....
We have had a crazy week. Brooke's working hard with the yearbook club and trying to get things finished. She has been working closely with the Principal at the school for her contributions. Savannah has had rehearsal all this week (with her girlfriends), they are auditioning TODAY for a spot in the End of the School Year Dance. So, GOOD LUCK Savannah, Brooke and Jessica!!!!!! We have also been practicing on our tumbling because she will be trying out for 8th grade Cheerleading squad.
I have to say that I couldn't be more proud of my girls. Brooke for the 1st time in her life made straight A's and Savannah is still pulling A/B honor roll. We have just chosen their classes for next year and it's funny bc they are so different. Savannah is sticking w/ dance and Brooke wants to do PE. I love their differences because it makes them who they are.
Since a few weeks ago, we have changed some house rules and WOW all I can say is, what a difference. The girls seem to get a long better and with each of them having their own things to do, they don't see each other as often so they are nice to one another. he he
Dwayne and I are coming up on our one year anniversary in a couple of months and OMG, I couldn't imagine anything less. He is one of the most incredible men you will ever meet. Love him to death.
We have some excitment coming with rodeo, Cookoff and I am working it again. Dwayne will be entertaining clients this year a bit more so we will be struggling with that. He has had to turn down quite a few bc of the babysitting situations, but he will figure out a way to keep them happy. Also, my Zumba group is going to San Antonio to celebrate all the weight loss in May! I am very proud of these ladies and cannot wait to celebrate with them!
Well, back to the house cleaning while the boys are down. Hope all is well with everyone and take care!
Love to you all!

Better late than never....
Well, I was downloading pictures off our cameras. Yes, I said cameras. We have 2. We have our daily one (Kodak) and then our special one (Canon Rebel XTI) which we use for special occasions or for my photography. I am really learning about it.
Anyways, I found pictures from the boys' birthday party and wanted to share.
The boys being sung to (patiently waiting)

That 2nd picture.....
I posted yesterday looks as if I have 2 sets of twins! OMG, the girls look so much alike. I was also looking at the family picture and Savannah looks like me from the nose up! ha ha
I tell you, after the last week, I will never ever forget what I learned. I have learned that my children could never be replaced. I will never be selfish and will provide as much as I can for my family each and every day! I love my family and god has given me so much to be thankful for. I am truly blessed to have the family I do. I haven't forgotten my friends either! I have a great group of friends that I wouldn't trade for the world. I wish we could see more of each other!
I hope everyone today has a wonderful love filled day and realizes how special each and every one of you are!
Hugs and kisses from all of us!

It's Been FOREVER............
since my last post. I can't even remember when. We have been dealing with sick children, sick mommy, school, classes and just plain fun.
I do have a couple of pics to post. We finished decorating our den! When my mom and sister were here we seemed to get it finished. Now all that's left is painting, which will come at a later date.
