Tuesday 10 (+3)!!

6. Anna's graduation party!!

ECLIPSE

A group of us got tickets to the trilogy on Tuesday evening to see Twilight @7:15, New Moon @ 9:30 and then Eclipse @ 12:01!!!

Then I'm going with Amy, 2 of her daughters, Steph, & Holly again on Friday to see it again!!!  :)

(I wont even mention that another group of girls is going on Wednesday night and I am considering going!  No way, I would never admit that, because then I might really have an obsession problem!!!)

Disney Pics below in case you missed them!  Part 2 coming soon! :)

Makeover and ROLL TIDE!!!

As you can see, I finally got a new blog makeover!!  Its been a while and I finally asked Krystyn over at Krizzy Designs to do it!!  She is a personal friend of mine from school! (and way before that!)

She did such a great job and I love it!!  Hope you do too!

Please check her out at http://www.krizzydesigns.com/ for blog designs, announcements, or invitations!  Her stuff is AWESOME!!

I had to add these next pictures!!  We have a divided house tonight

6-ALABAMA (Julia, Faith, me, Crystal, Landon and Myles!)

2-UT (Bryand and Gavin)

and Skylah which really doesnt care because football isnt her thing!  lol

Most of my family wants to disown me, but I'm sure they will forgive me soon!  :)

Julia and Faith

"Roll" "Tide"

Landon and one of the UT fans, Gavin (even though he is still wearing red!) lol

UT fans on the bottom, right where they belong!!!  ha

We are all pumped and watching the game!!

I wish it wasnt a school night (I'm sure we will let them stay up a little late though!  no spelling test tomorrow!  lol)

ROOOOOOLLLLLLLL TIIIIIIDDDDDE!!!!

We will see if I can proudly say that tomorrow!  ;)

No pics of me, but here is my shirt!  bwahahahahaha

Family Reunion in Hope, Arkansas!

Its hard to believe our reunion was a month and a half ago!  We had such a wonderful time in Hope and look forward to going back to visit!  Small towns are fun to visit, but I sure could not live there!

Nana and Landon

Landon and his great grandpa..Papa!!

Mom and Papa

Some old pictures from our previous reunion.  The last time I was there was when I was pregnant with Landon!

Lindsey and I

The boys playing football!  Landon felt right at home!  ;)

Aunt Barbara, Aunt Lane and my mom!

Of course we had to visit the Clintons gravesite.  The whole time is cover in Bill Clinton stuff!  lol  My mom actually went to the same day care (years later) as Bill Clinton did!  Oh the things to be proud of!  ha

The family!!! 

I'm smack in the middle and Landon is the 2nd kid from the right!

The Ray side!

(Olivia is right next to Landon in the front!)

My pumpkin!

Crazy monkeys!  Landon, Olivia (in the middle), and our other cousin.

So there you have it! 

Thank you all so much for your sweet messages, comments, phone calls over the last week.  It was such a wonderful feeling to be in Arkansas with my family.

They services were just amazing.  I felt weird saying that about a funeral, but thats not what is was.  They did such a great job making it a celebration of her life!  She was a wonderful little girl that went way too soon, but we all know she is in such a better and more beautiful place.  Olivia has been to more countries, missions, and served her Lord more than many adults I know (including myself)  She had a wonderful 10 years and they portrayed that so great at the services.

There were over 800 people at the service!  They also have friends and family all over the world, so they had it broadcasted on the church website LIVE.  They had over 1,000 people watch it online.  Theres just a little glimpse at how many people loved this little girl and her family!

My aunt, uncle and cousins are so strong in their faith and doing as good as can be expected.  They have a tough road ahead of them, so please continue to keep them in your prayers.

I still have a bunch of posts that are half done to post!  I need to get to work I guess!

Of course that will have to wait until after I meet up with Steph, Rach and Emily for dinner and drinks tonight!!!!  :)

Honest Scrap

This really amazing girl over at King Quads nominated me for this awesome award!!  Thanks Jenn!!  I would link to her, but to protect those precious babies of hers, she is on private!  Many of the other fabulous quad mommas know her and I know they all agree that she is awesome too!  She has 4 of the cutest babies I have EVER seen, she is super sweet, creative, and I just wish we lived closer to eachother!  Like she said, I know we would be great friends!

You must share 10 honest things about yourself and then choose 7 other people to nominate this award to!

10.  I have always been addicted to Diet Coke!  3 months ago I decided to try and quit, and havent had one since!  I tried a sip of one the other day and actually found that I dont miss it at all!

9. I cannot leave the house without drying, straightening and curling my hair, and putting on my makeup!  Not even to the gas station!  You would think I was a girly girl, but I'm totally not!  Jeans, flip flops and a tshirt will do, I just must be fixed up a little!

8. I actually cried when I found out Landon was a boy.  I just knew in my heart that he was a she.  I am an only child and was raised by my mom.  We have always been just the girls!  I didnt know what I would do with a boy.  Worms, sweat, sports, camping is NOT my thing ;)  Now that I have a stinky, sweaty,sport playing boy, I dont know what I would do without him!  He is such a mommas boy and a little lover!  I am so glad I had a boy first!!

7. I am obsessed with tv.  Its really a problem ;)  I keep waiting to come home and have my family sitting down to have an Intervention!  (wich happens to be one of the shows I watch!  lol)  Reality tv is my favorite, well..or dancing shows.  Then again, I dont think anything could top Greys! (or Desperate Housewives, SYTYCD, Chelsea Lately, Kendra, ABDC, ok, ok...I told you I have a problem!!)

6. I have never smoked a cigarette..not a single puff in my entire life!! 

 (woo-hoo!!)

5.  I was on drill team for 3 years and used to be in tap, ballet and jazz as a child, but I WILL not dance at a club or party now!  Give me an 8 count and I can do it, but other than that, this girl has no rythym!

4. I find all of you quad moms absolutly AMAZING!  I almost didnt write this because I didnt want yall to think I was crazy, but this is called Honest Scrap right?!?!  I find it so interesting to read about your lives, the ups, the downs, the in betweens, the pictures and the love you have for each other!!

3. I used to LOVE scary movies, but since I had Landon, I CANNOT watch them.  For some reason I imagine them happening to my life now and it totally freaks me out! 

2. I cant go to sleep without checking my email.  I may not open everything or reply, but I cant sleep if I dont look at it!  lol  I will even check it on my cell in bed if I didnt get on the computer!  Hey, dont judge!

1. I am SUPER punctual..I know my blood pressure is through the
 roof when I am late to something.  Its my biggest pet peeve when people are late!  It just seems so inconsiderate to me!  My poor child has learned this trait too..he freaks out if he thinks will be late!  (which is a good and annoying trait all in one!  lol)

So there you have it..hope I didnt scare any of you off!  ;)

Now to 7 of my wonderful blogger buddies...

Happy 68th Wedding Anniversary!!

A few weekends ago we went to Lufkin for Crystals great grandparents 68th Wedding Anniversary!

Landon and Ajax on the ride up there!

Crystal with her great grandparents! They are such amazing people and it was so nice to spend this special day with them!

Skylah and MawMaw (her great GREAT grandmother!)Me and and my munchkin (you will notice this is the before picture!)

5 generations!! (and Landon! lol)

Crystal spent weeks making a slideshow of old pics and songs. It was so neat, but so sad. Everybody really enjoyed watching it :)

Landon has had a loose tooth for weeks now (his first one!) MawMaw decided to try and pull it out... Skylah had a loose tooth too, so I started trying to pull hers out...
and within 60 seconds I pulled Skylahs out and then turned and pulled Landons out!!
Corky brought them straight to the bathroom to rinse ;)

Silly Skylah not smiling! lol

This was #6 for her! (which 5 of them I have pulled out!)
My baby lost his first tooth! (hence the "before" pic earlier in the post!)

Lots more to update, but I thought I would start with this weekend!!

<>We had another weekend in Lafayette, started football, won a few giveaways, and have had lots of fun the last part of summer! More pics to come soon!!

Blogger has been acting funky on my laptop and not letting me rearrange my pictures. Hopefully that doesnt happen again and I can get caught up soon!

I've loved reading up on all your blogs though!!

Congrats to Stephanie on Baby #2...

Congrats to Kim and Travis on their recent engagement..

and April on the birth of Baby Hunter!!
