Static

The other day Trent and I were jumping on the trampoline and realized there was some major static electricity going on.  I ran in to get the camera to capture the moment.   I cannot believe how far our hair was sticking out!!!

Seeing Santa

We went to see Santa last week.  I love the Santa pictures....I wish it was not such a rushed thing.  Trent said Santa told him he could not get the same thing as Colter.   We told him I think Santa was just kidding with you....or maybe he wants to surprise you!  

Trenton's Tooth

For about 2 years Trenton has been asking when he was going to lose a tooth.  His first tooth started getting loose the day after his 6th birthday.   He was having a hard time eating and said "maybe I shouldn't turn 6".  Unfortunately we don't have a choice whether we get older or not.   A week and a half later the tooth finally fell out.   Well, now his wish has come true and he can now say he has had a visit from the tooth fairy.  

Trenton's Reptile Party

Last week was Trenton's 6th birthday.  Knowing his love for reptiles we decided to throw him a reptile party.  Char from Char's Reptile Store came to the party with lots of neat animals.  Watch the attached slideshow to see some of God's beautiful creatures.

Clear Lake High School Friends

Last Sunday a group of my high school buds got together for dinner.   We try and get together a couple times a year.  We let time get away from us since the last visit.....but we aren't going to let that happen again.  It is so much fun when we get to see each other.  Hope we plan it again soon!!!  Luv ya girls!!!

Dana brought a drink to share to bring back good times.   I am still laughing about it......not because I drank too much!  You rock Dana!

Back to Normal

Well, we are finally getting back to normal. We left College Station last Friday and went to Bob's parents house for the weekend (they got power back last Thursday). Our power came back on Sunday evening. We moved back home Monday morning after I dropped the boys off at school. It has been a crazy couple of weeks.

Here are a few pics from our last day at the compound in College Station. We cooked smores by the fire and shot bb guns.

Seems Like Vacation

On Tuesday evening we had a little bit of a scare with Trenton. He woke complaining of his leg hurting. That evening we noticed his toe looked infected and there was streaking up his leg. I called a cousin of mine who lives in town and is a Dr....he happened to have a pediatrician that lives next door to him. Long story short. We ran over then at 10:00 at night and she diagnosed him with staff. We got him some antibiotic and he was much better the next morning. By that evening he was back to full health (as you can see in the pics). Yesterday Aunt Debbie came to the compound so we helped her clean up the yard. The boys picked up branches and sticks. They were somehow very motivated when they learned we were going to make a bonfire with all the branches. Today we learned that Bob's parents got their power back, and we are suppose to get ours back by Monday. So, tomorrow we are headed to Conroe to stay with Grammie and Papa till our power comes back on. The Lord has blessed us tremendously through this whole thing. We feel so blessed. No damage to either one of our homes....and plenty of family to support us and help us through all this. Thank you Lord!!!
