Well I don't really know how to describe our week last week other than it was different than what we are used to around here. First of all the vicious throw up bug came to visit Tuesday night and didn't leave until Sunday after it had infected everybody, including my parents who had come to visit. Keagan was excluded for some reason and we all believe now that he has an immune system made from steel!!! It was NO fun and actually when Kason got sick Tuesday night(throwing up 9 times in 4 hours) we actually thought it was food poisoning so we had a babysitter come over and keep the kids on Wednesday, she too was sick 2 days later. I felt horrible!!!! Ok, so my parents came on Thursday to spend the weekend with us. Thursday was an extra day longer than they usually get to stay so I was really looking forward to their visit. I was really glad to have them here because Jason and I got sick Thursday after they got here and would not have been able to take care of the kids at all. So....sad we didn't get to have a fun time with them but so glad they were here to take care of the house and kids for me!!! Ok, so Sat. we were all doing better not back to normal but much better. We received a knock on the door Saturday night about 9:00, really strange because we weren't expecting company. The lady at the door asked Jason, "did you not hear that noise?" Jason said what noise, she said come look at your car (his and my parent's was parked safely in the driveway), so he went and took a look. The back of my mom's car was all dented in, pretty bad. And it had been hit so hard by a car that it moved from being parked about 4ft. forward, smashing it into our garage door!!! It was wild!!! Some 14 y/o girl, who shouldn't have been driving, hit a truck down the street, freaked and somehow put her car in reverse and floored it back about 4-5 houses and happened to loose control and run into our driveway!!! Wow, what a mess!!! We were very glad nobody was hurt because we could have easily been out in the yard with the kids at that time!!! So, that's it, that was our week. I've posted a few pictures but didn't get the bad part of my mom's car because of the license plate being in view, I didn't want to post that on here. Anyway, take care and have a safe week, everybody!!!!

Well, I finally took Kason to get his hair cut this week. As you can see from the slide show he wasn't too fond of the process but he does look SO stinkin' cut with the end result!!!

We went to feed the ducks this week with a friend of mine:) and a friend of Keagan's and I guess you could say a friend of Kason's as well. Noah is about 1 year older than Kason though. It was just a little warm but it didn't slow those boys down one bit. First picture front to back is Kason, Keagan, Liam, Noah, and Melanie.

Not much other than the usual going on around here. My brain is still wondering what in the world I'm doing to it with all of this school and studying but hopefully it will get over the shock of it all pretty soon:)
We had a play date last week at the splash park with several friends but the pictures didn't really turn out too great so I won't post them. Hopefully Jason will purchase a new camera for me pretty soon that will capture action shots a little better than my current one does.
Just one cute little story I thought I'd blog. I was getting Kason ready for bed tonight. The normal routine is bath, lotion up, read stories, say prayers, then sing a song or two. I got to the song part and was singing Jesus Loves Me. When I sang " for the Bible tells me so" Kason would say Bibo. It was so cute. So I kept singing just to see if he was really saying Bible. Every time I said Bible he repeated "Bibo" each time. It was the cutest thing, I just had to share.

Happy 40th Anniversary, Mom and Dad!!!!
This past weekend my mom and dad celebrated their 40th anniversary. My brothers and I planned a little dinner for them in the Dallas area. A few of my mom's brothers and their families live within an hour of there so they met our family for dinner plus my good friend Amanda. We really had a good time and hope that we helped make the celebration special for them!!

The first half of the weekend Keagan went camping with Gram and Pop. They went camping with their donkey group and yes, they took the donkeys camping with them. Keagan had a great time. In the first picture he is playing musical hoola(?) hoops with his donkey with the help of Aunt Lori. In the second picture he is riding in the golf cart with all of his friends that were there. With Pop being the chauffeur.

Just thought I'd post some random pictures of what we've been up to lately. Also, not too many pictures of Keagan because he runs almost everytime I try to get him. Also, Kason has learned two new words. Gah cah (golf cart). He loves riding in Pop's golf carts at his house and last night when we went outside he said 'gah cah.' We were amazed at his overachievement:)
Kason loves to try to feed himself like a big boy. Some days I'm up for the challenge and mess that is involved with that and some days I'm not. Here are a couple of pictures of him feeding himself yogurt!!

Here is Keagan and Kason playing together in the playroom. Also, a picture of Kason brushing his teeth. He loves to do this!!!

Jason's mom(Meme) and sister(Aunt Rachael) and our niece, Brooklyn came down to visit last week. They stayed Thurs. thru Sat. Here are a few random pictures I took while they were here. Brooklyn is only 4 weeks younger than Kason and they both have just learned to walk so it was fun!!! Jason left for a short business trip to San Diego but since they came I didn't have to stay all by myself so that was nice.
Kason and Brooklyn after a wet morning walk. It started raining on us.

Chillin' after naptime

At the splash park, I had more pictures but I figured Meme and Aunt Rachael wouldn't appreciate me posting them in their swimming suits on here:)

I found Kason in the pantry yesterday helping himself to a banana, peeling and all!!!

The only bad thing about the new house so far!!

Ok, just a few things. The new house is going good. It's really nice to have extra room and empty cabinets in the kitchen:) The playroom is a huge bonus!!! It's nice to have the bedrooms clean and not cluttered with toys from wall to wall. The one thing that I hate, hate, hate about it is in the pictures. Yes, today I found our 3rd scorpion so far!! This on was in the play room. I think it was actually feeling the effects of the exterminator who was here one week ago Friday. The second one I found yesterday in the boys bathroom crawling rather quickly on the floor. And the first one was one week ago yesterday on the dining room curtains that I was opening for the day and almost grabbed!!!!!! Ugh........I really don't want to get stung but if somebody is going to then I'd rather it be me and not one of the boys!! I'm having to check the beds every night to make sure one isn't in them. I have to make sure I use a flashlight if I get out of bed to use the bathroom or check on the kids because I'm always scared I'll step on one!! Does anybody have any suggestions?? Thank you Jesus that I've found them all thus far before anybody has gotten stung!!!

Ok, so time for a quick update. We are moved!! Almost totally unpack. Yippee!! Don't remember moving ever being so hard but I guess I haven't moved as a family of four before either:)
I almost have school wrapped up for the summer then I'll have about 3 weeks to relax. Next semester I'll be taking Biology and A&P so .....wish me well!!:)
Monday we drove up to see some friends that live a few hours away. They've just recently moved to Texas from out of state. Aaron and Jason have been good friends since 5th grade. Katie and I have been friends since she and Aaron got married and I'm so glad he found such a great wife. I love getting together with them. It seems we always have something to talk about. They have two kids Kobey is 5 1/2 and Liley is only 2 weeks younger than Kason, they are also expected another in September. Anyway, we had a great time with them!!! Here are a few pictures from the afternoon.
