I not so secretly...

love SKULLS!!!! Too bad my husband forbids it or my kids might be wearing this.

or this

or I could get this for Jonathan to carry when he is watching the kids

(love it!!!)

It's become an obsession I can do nothing about...

I seriously don't see what the big deal is...but he says that it's part of the "rock culture" and he doesn't want our kids to be a part of it. So I guess I will be a submissive wife and try to move on...

maybe...

I'm pretty sure...

this little cutie is FINALLY getting his first tooth!!!

Good Weekend!

Well, the weekend is winding down...but it's been a pretty good one. Thursday, Jonathan and I went to OKC to have an interview with the OK District UPC board for Jonathan to get his minister's license. We were both pretty nervous to say the least but it actually went really good and he got approved!! You can now address him as Reverend. heh heh. Then yesterday we had our third Sr. Bible Quiz and once again we placed 1st and one of my quizzers placed 1st on the All-Tournament team for the third time this year. So I am super proud of my quizzers! Tonight we have church again and we will be having Calvary Cafe to raise a little more money for our quiz team to go to extravaganza in Kansas City in 3 weeks!!! Can't wait!

Wow

I just went back and read my previous blog. Man- I am boring!! Well, at least those who suffer from insomnia can be put to sleep fast...

This is what happened when Chase tried to read it.

Random

Sometimes my life seems so uneventful, but yet it seems like I never stop going...

Monday- I cleaned the entire day. We were supposed to list our house Monday night but something came up with our realtor. My doors have been "Magic Eraser" erased. and my carpets "Spot Shot" cleaned. My house is officially cleaner than it has been since we moved in. Now I don't want to sell!!! I want to wait til it gets super dirty again and then I will leave. haha. Too bad it doesn't work that way...

Tuesday- I straighted up again thinking the realtor was coming last night but again something happened and we had to reschedule. We should hopefully have our house on the market in about 20 years...my sis, Allison, thought she had to be at work at 9 am and got there and found out she wasn't scheduled until 4pm! Sooo- she came over and went shopping with me...(actually, went "returning" with me). We had a great time together. My kids love her. I'm so glad. Maybe someday when I am an aunt my nieces and nephews will love me too. Probably not because I am already saving my quarters to make them play the quiet game. he he. (inside joke). After shopping I had quiz practice and Chantry got to go play at his friend Cadence's house. When I picked him up, Melissa gave me a huge piece of the most amazing cake. Maybe she could post the icing recipe on her blog.(hint) It tasted similar to Long John donut frosting. YUM!!!

So today, the kids and I are taking it easy and tonight is church again...tomorrow OKC...and Saturday is our 3rd Sr. Bible Quiz.

That's all folks!!!

My gorgeous sister, Allison, aka world's best aunt!

Picture Post

Okay, obviously  I am a little excited about my blog. I will probably abandon it here in a few days or weeks though, so enjoy my posts as much as possible.  I just wanted to post some random pictures of the family. Enjoy!!

Here's one of just the guys:

Me and the kiddos...what cuties!!

Souper Sunday

I just made some amazing soup for lunch/dinner. It was Broccoli Cheddar soup. Even my husband loved it and he is not a soup person. What is it with guys? Most all of my friend's husbands gripe when they make soup too. I love soup. I could have it for every meal. I guess guys think they have to have meat with every meal. Silly silly men.

Yesterday was the first day of spring. In honor of that day, we got a huge blizzard dumped on us. I really don't mind this time because they are saying it's going to be in the 70's again on Tuesday. Hopefully this is the end of winter-mess for us. I was disappointed because my team's bible quiz got cancelled yesterday. They are trying to reschedule for next week. Keeping my fingers crossed. We didn't have service this morning because of the weather but they are having it tonight. I will not be going because Chantry has been running a fever.

Speaking of Chantry, he wanted me to put his picture on here. So here are my handsome little guys. This was taken last Wednesday night before church. I am so proud of my kids...can you tell??

Grand Re-Opening

Hey all!!! I am re-opening my blog so I can share new pictures and stories with all my family. It's really a way for me to avoid rejoining facebook. haha. I will start by uploading a few pictures that I have taken recently. It will take me awhile to go back and update everyone with pictures of my cute boys.
