Halloween!

Lily and Mark are amazing. Craig took Mark to the football game by himself a week ago and an older lady sitting behind them commented on how amazed she was with Mark. She couldn't believe a little four year like him could sit still and act so well during the entire game. She was so impressed that she got up to go buy snacks and bought some M&Ms for Mark! Just another reminder of how blessed I feel for my wonderful family.

Taking the kids trick or treating last night was a blast. Lily quickly learned how to say "Trick or Treat" and threw a horrible crying fit if I tried to carry her little pumpkin candy basket. She was determined to carry it herself even if it dragged on the ground. I ended up carrying her most of the time, but it was still fun! Enjoy the pictures!

Holy Heat Wave! It's Summer!

As Mark watches the old "Batman" movie I find myself actually taking time to do something I rarely do: update my blog. I don't know what I can say that would be tremendously interesting or exciting besides saying I LOVE SUMMER! :-) It's my favorite season for many reasons:

A) Vacation time!

B) I'd rather be sweating than shivering

C) I LOVE spending time with the sweetest kids in the entire world.

I've already made a "to do" list with lots of things to do around the house and it's enormously nice to actually have time to keep my house clean. :-)

But, as they say, a picture's worth a thousand words. So I'll save my words and post my pictures.

You'll see me with Mark and Lily in the beautiful Texas bluebonnets. We also have pictures from our neighborhood pool and Lily's first time to swim in it. And there's a little picture of a bird nest on our back porch. There's 5 little babies in there!

Enjoy the pictures til next time!
