Baby baby

My brother Dustin and his wife are expecting baby #3!! Molly is already 13 weeks along. Molly had a miscarriage back in the Fall and I think they really wanted to make sure everything was fine before announcing it to everyone....I am soo happy for their family...pray for baby #3 to be a little girl! Taydem needs a girl cousin!

We went to Ashby's 3rd bday party Saturday morning at Pump it Up. It was a Mickey Mouse theme...so cute. Truitt sang the National Anthem and did so good. There were about 350 people there. I didn't get to go watch him, but they all said he did awesome. Darin and Chrissy are going to try and get him to sing at a Ranger's game this summer....

Flew by

On Wednesday and Thursday I was in Tyler all day at a Railroad Commission seminar. This morning I had to do CPR training. I feel like I've been gone all week...it just flew by! Now I'm back and I'm trying to catch up on all my emails, facebook, people.com, etc! I seriously have been lost the past three days with NO internet! I know, that's so sad...

Tomorrow Ashby Duke is having his 3rd birthday party at Pump It Up! Then at 12 we are going to Kilgore to watch, or I guess listen, to Truitt sing the National Athem to kick off Little League season. Is that crazy or what? The kid just turned 4 last month and he knows the whole song! I know some adults that don't even know the thing...It's soooooooooooooo funny. I need to video tape it...

Aidan had a T-Ball game last night...they did really good. Aidan was playing as pitcher and he scooped up the ball and threw it to first base and got three players out in a row! That doesn't happen very often at this age. The little first baseman was pretty good as well...

Shreveport...fun times

We had a blast in Shreveport. Sonny and Kent got to our house around 10 on Friday and decided they wanted to go out. So Leven took them out to a bar here in Longview and they didn't get home until almost 3!! They had so much fun...and were hurting the next morning. We dropped Taydem off at my parent's around noon and then headed on our way. Once we got to the casino the boys all started playing Texas Hold 'Em and I decided to go shopping at The Boardwalk. I spent about 2 hours there and then headed back to round up the guys for dinner. We were also meeting my friend Lucas and his wife for dinner. We got to Superior around 6 ish and of course the place was packed! We stayed for an hour and a half and we were still WAY down the list to get seated. By then we all had a few drinks and wanted to go ahead and get something quick to eat so we could go back to the casino. So we ate at MCDONALDS! We were all cracking up...it was quick all right. So we spent the rest of the night at the casino. The El Dorado has a really fun bar that always has a live band. So we spent half the night in there and then we thought we would play craps about 2 in the morning! I was sooo worn out yesterday...I'm seriously getting to told for all the late night partying!

Shreveport

I'm too excited about this weekend. We are going to Shreveport to hang out at the boats, do some shopping, and eat some good food! Two of Leven's friends from Mexia are meeting us over there and some friends from Dallas as well. Tomorrow we are leaving around noon to get an early start. Leven and his buds are going to play some Texas Hold 'Em during the day while I go to The Boardwalk and do a little shopping. That night we will probably eat some mexican food at Superior and then head out on the town. I'm sure I will have tons of pics!

Spring is here

We had a packed weekend. Saturday morning I got up and headed to a skeet shooting range to help my company cook breakfast for all the shooters. I had to get up so freakin' early, but we were finished by 9. Then I took Taydem to my Meme's house and took pictures of her by all the flowers. After that we cleaned the boat up really good and put it in the water for the first time. Leven, Taydem, Danin, Brandi and I were out on the lake for about 3 hours soaking up the sun. It was so nice being out on the water. Leven keeps telling me to look on the bright side about not getting our house started yet. He said at least we will be on the lake all summer, he has a point! Saturday night I went to a wine tasting/lingerie shower for a good friend of ours. Krystal is getting married at the end of April so we all got together to celebrate. The house the party was at was amazing! Yesterday after church Mom and Dad wanted to have a fish fry and get the family all together. Our family "loves" having a fish fry whenever possible...and my dad can sure cook some good fish! And to top off the weekend, the weather was beautiful!

TGIF

This week has been the LONGEST week I have ever had.

Leven came home yesterday afternoon from being in Mexia for a couple of days. I was so glad to see him too. After a couple of days away from your loved one you start to miss them. Tomorrow Mom, Danin, Tay and I are going to Shreveport to do some shopping on the boardwalk. We haven't had a girls day in awhile so tomorrow will be much needed. On Sunday, my parents are having a fish fry for the family! This time of the year is perfect to eat fish. I'm so excited about next weekend though. Leven and I are going to Shreveport on Saturday and meeting some good friends of ours that afternoon and will party all night! Hopefully we won't get tired early...

Spring Break sucks

So now that I'm not teaching anymore, SPRING BREAK SUCKS! Over the Christmas break, it wasn't so bad seeing Leven sleep in. But now, I am really missing the good perks about being a teacher. I think summer will be ever worse. Trever is at his mom's over the break visiting family and friends. Leven is heading to Mexia tomorrow morning for a few days with his family and friends. He has been home sick for about a month now. I'm so glad he gets to go home finally and "hang out!"

I love reading other people's blog page. If you are reading mine right now you should hop on over to my cousin Chelsea's page next (Makowsky's Blog). She cracks me up every day with her writing skills. It's funny because I can see her in person saying what she's saying when she's typing. Does that make sense?? She's a good writer. Chelsea write a book for crying aloud!
