Happy Halloween!

* Look at all that loot! And that's not even all of it!

What a busy weekend! We have had a great weekend full of fun activities! Saturday we went to Granny Cat's and Elvis' for some trick or treating in Sulphur Springs. I met up with a dear friend and chatted awhile with her. Today, we went to my mom and dad's for lunch with the whole Bailey crew. We had sooo much fun laughing and playing. It has been tooo long! I miss seeing the whole gang together! Hope everyone had a safe and fun Halloween!

I wanna blog, really I do!

Ok peeps..do tell..how do you keep up with your blog! I haven't done this in 3, yes 3 months! I love to share exciting news or snipits but the hours in the days wither away. So tell me..when do you blog?

Long Time, No Blog :/ & San Antonio!

*if this pic doesn't crack you up...

*sweet sisters

*what's up daddy?!

Yep, it's been way too long. I admit. I have become a total bum. I am wrapped up in this thing called Summer Break. I love it, it loves me. I do what I want, whenever I want, (children permitting) and it's fabulous. Now I know, I should be motivated to do a little entry of the blog every so often, but, I have actually been so busy with my second job, Uppercase Living. It consumes me. I love it! My wonderful hubby let's me take off and party it up with women that are as addicted to it as I am. But, anywho, I still need to sit down and blog about my precious children. So, here goes...

We went on Vacation back in June and had a marvelous time!! We drove down to good ol' San Antonio and checked out Sea World and Fiesta Texas, and not to forget the neat Riverwalk. The girls had so much fun, and were so well behaved. I told JE, that by golly, we might just be able to do more things in public and not look like a total freak show! LOL! I mean Cara is in that age called the "Terrible Twos!", But, we survived, and had a wonderful time and made lots of memories. I can't wait for the next family trip!

Ella Grace turns 4!

I feel like such a bad mommy. I did not, for the life of me, have time to sit down and do this sweet baby's blog post about her special day!! I still can not believe she is 4. It was 4 years ago that I had her, left the hospital, with a full load of misc. items, and a newborn babe, leaving Longview, Texas, which was to be long overdue! We moved in with my parents, because daddy had to stay in Longview and finish the school year. We lived with my parents for 6 weeks, which was such a blessing. They helped us in so many ways. On the other end, Jon Eric's mom, AKA Granny Cat, was hard at work to find us the perfect home. And she did. We couldn't have done it without her. We moved in June 16, 2006, a short 6 weeks from the day you were born. You are mommy's precious pumpkin, pretty girl, and NOT a noo~noo!! I love you Ella Gracie! Mommy and Daddy love you so much!

Ella Grace's first T-Ball Game!

Let me tell ya, Ella is the cutest Cub I have ever seen! She was sooo scared to go out there, but in the end, she did great. OK, maybe she didn't know exactly where to run, but she got there eventually! She got 2 hits, and scored 2 times! Defense is not her thing, but hey, she is only 3! She had fun, and she is excited about next week!

Going.....

Going....

GONE!!!!!

Well I should say FINALLY GONE...since it took for-ev-er to come out, I am talking 2 months here people! And she has to be without a doubt, the biggest baby when it comes to pulling teeth. But, turns out this baby can pull teeth out alllll by herself. Yep, you read that correctly, she did it all by herself. Daddy was there for moral support, but she turned that sucker around in a twist, and POP, there it went, Finally. ;o)

So Much Snow!

free dog to a good home!

I'm freezzzzzin'!!

whoa what is this stuff...

A couple of weeks ago, Greenville got some record breaking snow! It was indeed, snow much fun! We all headed out in the snow to build not one, but two snowmen, ahem, I mean snow women. The girls could not believe it, nor could I. It just kept snowing! Last I heard, we had a total of 12 inches, or a whole FOOT! Here are some pics of our great time in the snow.
