Check out my son's new "do"........too "cool".......pun intended!


David runs basketball camps in several different areas in Dallas area and Oklahoma, so he is away from us for 4-5 weeks every summer. He left last Saturday and so Friday we went out for a fun donut and kolache breakfast. We picked up donuts down the street and drove to out FAVORITE kolache place EVER....Old Towne Kolaches. THE BEST!!!! The entire way there Brayden looked inside the bag at his donuts as if they were "his precious"! A picture of his cherished look is posted.

David wanted to try his hand at photography so after I set the camera he shot away...not bad with a little PS and croppping! Good job Hon!!! Obviously the ones with me in it are his handy work....and they say photographyby DAVID!

Summer days.....

Are here again are here again... are here again! The summer is here again and I am gearing up to "single mom it"! We go throught his every year, David travels and does summer basketball camps. Which is a great part time sumemr job, it has helped us tremendously to stay afloat so I can remian home and we can provide for our 4 children. It has been a blessing from God. We are very grateful and Daivd really loves it, although it gets harder every year to be apart for 4-5 weeks straight. But with our goals of paying off our mortgage ever closer in view we are excited that we see an end to that chapter.

I am also overwhelmingly blessed as David's sister, his Mom and my Mom are all on the rotation to stay with us while David is gone.


We are still so excited about the upcoming year. I am ready to begin school and really spend time learning with abnd about my boys. I am more than blessed...I am overcome with joy knowing God has entrusted me with 4 very special children to teach, guide, and impart. I am equally as blessed that through His grace and tender mercy He has opened my eyes and heart to sacrifice even more for them. And that makes me excited......I am not sure why? I just know I am ecstatic to take this journey together.
Maybe it is because I know from experience that when I am stretched I draw ever closer to Him as well as those I love. So the rewards of intimacy are apaprent with My heavenly Father as well as my earthly family if we do this for Him and through Him.

That is all the time I have for now, not as much time to blog these days......
