Busy

So I think it goes without saying that life is just BUSY. Some days I walk in the door at 8:30 PM and think to myself, "This is the first time I have been home all day." For a stay-at-home Mom, there just isn't much staying at home, you know what I mean??

Here are some random updates/pics of some of the things keeping us so busy these days.

First of all...SCHOOL. There is always something going on with one of the kids' schools. Parents nights, homework, PTA, you name it. School is just busy!!

Our daily walk/ride to school.

Biker chick. Everyone knows Kaitlynn by her Big Wheel. She is heck on wheels, ha!

Beautiful rays of sunshine!

All smiles; we love school!

Since Kaitlynn is now in school 4 days a week, we don't get much time to run errands and have downtime like we used to. But we try to take advantage of it while we can. One of our favorite stops is the Galleria, because we can shop, play, and then meet Daddy for lunch!

LOVE this pic, which is kind of deceptive because she looks so sweet and innocent, LOL!

What?! We get to meet Daddy for lunch?? YAY!!!

This is a Daddy's Girl through and through! She now commonly refers to him as her "sweet Daddy." (Gag me. Just kidding.)

Love :-)

A special lunch with Daddy and his girl.

Our weekends lately have been primarily dedicated to football. Connor has games on Saturdays, the Texans play most Sundays, and we are also regularly attending our new church, Grace Fellowship, which we all are really enjoying. Also on the weekends, we sometimes get a rare treat to spend time with Collin and Kevin if they make the drive from their respective colleges. Collin is still at UTSA and Kevin is in his first semester at Blinn College in Brenham.

A rare treat -- all 4 siblings together for a family lunch.

Occasionally I have dinner or a night away with my girlfriends. And when that happens, it is Dad's Night in our house. You would think the kids were at Disneyworld the way they react when it's Dad's Night. They literally shove me out of the door so they can get the fun started. I'm wondering if I should be offended??

Favorite Dad's Night activity -- making a tent!



Yo, Dad's Night rocks!
