AG's new room decor

Fun at the mall.

Outside fun....

Sad note...

We found out today that E's brother's step dad passed away this afternoon. He had a heart transplant about 16 months ago and was doing well. However, we found out today that he was hospitalized this past Friday, he went to ICU pretty quickly there after. So today around 3:30 he went to be with our Lord and savior. He leaves behind, a wife, 2 kids and 2 step children and multiple grandchildren. Please pray for their family as this was a little sudden.
G you will be missed.

WM CHICK FLICK NIGHT

As a stay at home mom there are limited times when you get to actually hang out with other ladies in your similar situation. Our churchs' womens ministry decided to have a chick flick night. What fun! I have been praying really hard about how I can become more involved in our church and I am hoping that I found my spot. The leadership team has asked me to take the photos of our events. I could not be more pleased with this opportunity. I love taking pictures and hanging out so could it be any better? I think not. Well anyway, here is a couple of pictures of last night.
The night started with a bang. The three of us went to the Mongolian Grill and had a blast getting to know one another better. Then we went and saw 27 Dresses. Totally cute and chicky. The second picture is the 20 AWESOME ladies/moms/wives that went to have a great time. Thanks ladies for making it a fantastic night!

BFF's

Last Wednesday M's good friend AK, had her 4th birthday party. Since M and AK birthdays are about two weeks apart we thought it would be fun to go take the girls to get their nails done. So here they are together. Also, a high note, M had her first sleep over with AK... These two girls were fabulous together. So sweet and loving to one another. What a great experience.

YEAH... Clean bill of health...

We are happy to announce that AG got a clean bill of health today. Her hearing is normal and her tubes are doing great. Her ears look "grand" as the dr. put it and she is breathing much better.... Thank goodness for that surgery! We are praying that we can make it a little while longer before she gets sick again... with all the viruses going around we are trying to be extra cautious..

Day of Surgery Pics..

Mels recital!

Surgery went great!

We wanted to let everyone know that we are home and AG did great. Dr. P said that she did great, it only took like 10 mins, but her adenoids were large and most likely the culprit of all her problems.
We are so thankful to all who prayed and lifted us up today. We surely felt at peace the whole day. Mom only had one crying spell as they took sweet punkin away.
We are very happy to be home and are looking forward to a healthier AG.
Love.

AG to have surgery

AG has been struggling with constant sinus infections for a couple of months now. So in order to help our little sweet punkin out we are going to be having surgery this Friday at Cooks Children's in FW. We both feel very comfortable with this decision as well as the doctor that is performing the ear tubes, adnoidectomy and a sinus irrigation.
I will hopefully post updates as to how she is doing.
We know that God has his wonderful hand in this surgery and that she will be much better off because of this procedure.

RR in town..

Ok, some of you who know me well know that I love RR. She seems like such an awesome person and she has inspired me to cook. I started watching her when after I had AG and she has led me to find my passion for cooking. Not only did she teach me skills for cooking she gave me confidence to get in there and just make something. That to me is 85% of cooking, having the confidence to get in there and just do it!
Well, I was reading the paper the other morning and guess what she was coming to Southlake. Oh my goodness, that is so close to me. So of course, I went to see her.
And can I tell you that she appears just like she does on TV, nice, warm, welcoming, and just friendly. She seems like you could hang out with her for hours and be in amazement. Or at least I could. Anyways, here are a couple of pics of her at WS this past weekend.

Xmas decor in Nov

OK, OK... I know, I have been a little "gung ho" this year. But I am just in the mood. I have put up most of our decor this year, besides our big family tree. I figure I will wait till this weekend or something. I just love this time of year where people are in better moods and it is all about sharing and giving back to Christ, for allowing his only son to die on the cross for each of our sins. We have it so wonderful, that I wanted to make sure that this year everything was put in perspective. Our church services this week have been so powerful and wonderful that it has definitely helped put me in the right frame of mind.
Love to you all and I hope you enjoy some of our decorations.

First day of school

Both girls did great at school today. M just ran in and had a wonderful day. She loves her teacher and it seems like it was the right decision to bring her back to FOTP. Such an amazing school environment and church. I feel completely blessed to belong to this wonderful church.
AG did great as well. She is still on antibiotics and antihistamines so she got a little tired before lunch. Apparently she was asleep in her chair before lunch was served. So sweet...
Tomorrow is our big Thanksgiving feast up there so that will be tons of fun... looking forward to some good eating!

Sick days

Both the girls have been sick and are on antibiotics..... AG with a ear and sinus infection and M w an ear and eye infection. Yes, you can imagine how we needed to get outside yesterday! Actually the girls have been very good considering there state right now.

E is doing well. Working very hard and long hours. This new time change is a struggle as the girls get very tired prior to him getting home at his normal time.

Me I am fine. I am basically now my own employer doing contract work. I think I will really enjoy this new opportunity.

Looking forward to the months to come. Well off to dance.
