HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Sweet, innocent Dylan?????
OK, I know I said Jax was Darth Vader but at the end of the night he pulled out the vampire teeth!

Halloween is a big deal around our house. My best friend and I have made this a tradition. We (or I) decorate my garage and we hand out candy together. We have done this 9 years straight and don't plan on stopping any time soon!! We have a blast. This year, Jaxon went as Darth Vader. He LOVES Star Wars so there was no guessing on what costume he would pick out. Now Dylan really doesn't like the whole costume thing but for some reason this year he wanted to be something scary SO he picked out the Scream mask, blood and all!! The boys went around the neighborhood with a group of friends from church. It was a great night with lots of great memories!!!

BOOMER SOONER!!!

This week the boy's school participated in Drug Awareness Week. Each day was recognized with different themes. Friday was spirit day and the boys went Boomer Sooner head to toe!!! Don was SOOOOO proud!!!!

Toothless Jaxon

I had to share these pics with all of you. Jaxon has now lost four teeth and I have had to pull ALL of them out!! YUK!!!

My baby will be 10!!!

OK, where did the past 10 years go? My Dyl Pickle will be 10 on the 28th and I am not handling this very well. I remember the minute I found out that I was pregnant with him. I remember his first word and his first step. I remember his first laugh and his first tear. His first day of school and now he is 10!! This little man will never know how much he means to me. What a difference he has made in my life. My life began when he was born.

Chance is now 4 months old!!

This big boy is now 4 months old. He is weighing a little over 17lbs and has everyone's heart in the palm of his little fat hand!!! Boy do we love having him in our family! We love you Chancey!

Homecoming 2008

The "cool" brothers!

Today was Priceville's homecoming game and at school, the theme was wacky Gold and Black day. Also, Preslie was on the 9th grade homecoming court and looked so beautiful. SHE HAD A DRESS ON!!!!!! GO BULLDOGS!!

Brothers and Sisters

Bo, me, Paige & Jimmy (youngest to oldest)

Many of you know that I was raised in Texas. And just a few of you know that my hometown of Sheridan is about as small as you can get. I don't even think we are a "dot on a state road map". If it wasn't for my two brothers and sister, I don't know what I would have done. Now before I go any further, their is another sister, DD, who was adopted when I was in high school. Note that she is loved as much as the rest but this story has to do with the three I was raised with. I could go on with stories from our past (Ask Bo!!!) but I will just say after we all left Sheridan, we went our separate ways for many years and somehow we made our way back to one another. Here are the first pictures we have taken together in almost 10 years!!! Yes, this was the first time in 10 years that we were ALL together. This day, I will never forget

You are in my personal space!!!

When Don is at work, the boys normally sleep with me. Well, actually Jaxon sleeps in the bed with me and Dylan sleeps on the floor. We were watching TV last night and I snuggled up to Jaxon. He turned away from me. I knew he was about asleep. I asked him if I was bothering him and he told me "You are in my personal space!!!!". He then moved further away and started snoring!! All I could do was laugh.
