Rachel Ready for Her Christmas Concert

Kaitlyn turns 12

As Christmas Approaches

This picture of Ashley sums up how I feel right now! She feel asleep at Rachel's Choir Concert (Great Job Mayde Creek JR High Girls Choir). The past two weeks has been filled with so much going on (just a sample) from 3 separate (each girl decided to get sick at separate times of course) trips to the doctor, several birthdays, choir rehearsal, orchestra rehearsal, choir concert, orchestra recital, dance recital, Christmas shopping, cleaning house, paying bills, work, sick kids,omework, cleaning house, wrapping presents, and chasing kids around the house.

I'm EXHAUSTED!

DEAR SANTA - this year I would love a nap for Christmas!

Can't make her smile

If Rylee doesn't want to smile - NO one is going to get this 5 yr old to smile! My mom bought the dress for her birthday - even without a smile - she is cute! Thanks momo! The dress is gorgous!

SNOW IN HOUSTON

I just wanted to let eveyone know that we have SNOW this evening. Rylee let me know that "it is ok to have Christmas now that it is snowing - but wait - dad isnt home...(with a huge sigh) sorry mom... not Christmas yet"

I love 5 year olds!

Christmas Dance Recital

Rylee has had a huge case of stage fright recently... so we were not sure if she would make it on stage. Right before they were to go on stage she had a extra strength grip on my leg. Her instructor reminded her that she would get a medal when she was done. That did it - she let go of my leg walked on to the stage and had her eyes stuck to the instructor the whole time. Wow I am so proud of her! If you aren't sure which one she is - she is in the middle on the right hand side.
