So the above picture is what happens when I try to do some house cleaning. Things in other rooms get torn apart so the whole house can never be clean all at the same time!!

Oh wow!! I know it has been so long since I've posted anything on here. So much has been going on. Life has been so hectic and crazy and I don't see an end in sight in the next couple of weeks.
What we've been up to, well........I'm in school. I'm taking two classes this semester. They are online courses which is nice but I still have to fit in time to study every now and then. I'll be going through an RN program at a college not far from our house. I'm not sure if I'll start spring '08 or Fall of '08 but as soon as I get two more pre reques out of the way I'll start. Not sure if I can do biology and A&P I in the same semester or not. Might be a little tough but I REALLY want to start the program in January so we will see. It'll be tough but I am pretty determined to do this so look out world. I would like to be a L & D nurse(labor and delivery) if I end up not liking that then I would probably go to NICU next. So, that's one thing that's been going on.....next, VBS starts tomorrow. I am directing one of our 3 kinder classes. I've never helped with VBS much less directed a class so I've been pretty overwhelmed with that. It takes a lot of planning and time to prepare for this big week!!! Pray that it goes well and that we can ALL be an example to these children and plant seeds in them that won't ever stop growing!!! Next on the list. We put our house back up for sale a couple of weeks ago and received 2 offers that very same week so we will close mid July and be out at the end of July. We don't know where we are going just waiting on God to direct us and help us feel at ease about a home. We would love to have something bigger!!!! Last week Keagan was sick for about 3 days and my grandmother went in the hospital. She went home and then went back a day later and since then we found out that she has conjestive heart failure and pneumonia!!! She's very weak and my parents say she is sleeping a lot so pray for her whenever you think about her. Also, I thought I had time to fit a garage sale in so I had one on Friday and Saturday, what was I thinking!!?? It actually went pretty well and I was able to get rid of a lot of stuff that was just taking up space in the attic, so that was good.This is going to be a long week for me. I am supposed to be at VBS every day before 8 am. We usually aren't out of bed before 8 am much less dressed and somewhere by 8am. Pray that I'll have LOTS of energy to make it until Friday.
Ok, so that's it, that's why I haven't posted lately. I also need to be studying for a mid-term so hopefully I can fit than in this week at some point!!! Hope each of you are doing well and hope to hear from you all soon!!!

Ok well tonight, or I guess it's last night since it is past 12am now, I went to a girls night out. Well it was kind of GNO/sending another military friend off. Anywho, it was a lot of fun!!! We just went out to a local restaurant, which I won't name because my food sucked, but at least the company was fun!!! It's SO nice to have such great girlfriends. We can talk about anything with each other, tonight proved that!!! I'm sure the few people sitting around us got an ear full and a giggle or two to themselves as well!!!! Shelly it's sad to see you go, we'll miss you on Monday nights!!! And.....why didn't I take my camera?? What was I thinking, oh well!!! Just had to let you all know how much fun we had. It's always nice to get a break from the kids and hubby once in a while.

Now, to back up to the weekend. We had some friends of ours come into town for a wedding. They have a 1 1/2 year old little boy. They stayed for 2 nights, so more fun with old friends again!! It was so nice having them around. Aaron is a VERY active little guy and Keagan enjoyed having him here a lot!! Jason and I enjoyed catching up with them on their lives and hanging out watching crazy movies late at night!!:) Scott also got Jason to skip out on church Sunday and play a round of golf. Jason enjoyed it a lot and I'm glad he got to do it since he works so hard all of the time and hardly ever has any down time to himself. Thanks Peschels for letting us know you would be in town, can't wait to have y'all back again. You are welcome anytime!!!

As for this week, there is a lot going on. School, studying, test taking, presentation due, VBS preperation, etc, etc!! Also, Jason's mom (MeMe) is here visitng until Thursday. I've been a little overwhelmed with everything that needs to get done but I know I'll make it because " I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength"!!!!!

My handsome little cowboy living his dream!!

Ok, well I have to tell you, today was a BIG day!!! The boys and I went up to a little bitty town to visit a good friend of ours that used to live in Waco but lives out of state now. She and her sweet little girls were in visiting this week. She is staying with a family that owns almost 2,000 acres. So, we were on a real ranch all day. And, you know who, absolutely was lovin' it!! We did so many "cowboy things" but riding a real horse topped it all!!! Keagan couldn't help but grin from ear to ear when he got on this horse. First, the sweet lady's grandson led the horse around while Keagan and Chloe took turns riding on the horses back alone then Keagan got to ride on it with a "real cowboy." We had such a fun time seeing Courtney and her little girls. I was amazed at how Courtney's oldest little girl looks identical to her mommy!!! It was fun hanging out and chatting about whatever. We (both of us before kids) used to hang out a whole lot when we were both in the same town. Now, living states away from each other we don't see and talk near as much but it's always nice when Courtney comes back for her yearly visit (usually with a new addition to the family) to sit a catch up on things. Maybe we can come up your way sometime!! Thanks for calling Court. It was much fun seeing you all!!!!!! Courtney, why didn't we get Wanda to take a group pic of us with our kids??!!

Kason wondering what in the world he is on!!
