No to much going on....

Last week was homecoming for Marcus. David and I rode our bikes to the parade then did not even see Trey he or we were on the wrong side... The game was good on Friday night they won. Not to much else going on... I will try to post picture of Trey and Lindsey. Kyles dog got her cast off and seems to be adjusting well. We still have to keep her in and quiet for the next 10 days. David and I took a bike ride last night that ended very funny my peddle and crank thing fell off and we ended up walking our bikes home. I was laughing so hard when it fell in the street and David was behind me and I said to him can you get that? I almost fell off my bike laughing so hard. We are going to try again the bike ride tonight... hopefully I wont loose any more bike parts.

Mom came to town :)

Mom is here for a real estate thing and she had some open time so Amy and I went to see her. We went to Northpark Mall that was fun but humid in there then to Allen Outlets. We really had a good time at one point I choked I was laughing so hard. David is happy he bought a car... we call him granddaddy in his car... Kyle is trying to register for a Jr. College woo hoo. Trey seems to be doing well in school football going good. We meet Shawna and family to join us to watch Marcus play football. We ate dinner and then the bottom dropped out it rained and has not stopped since. We need the rain but man I would hate to live in Seattle. Kyles dog goes back to the doctor today for a check up on her cast.. she broke her back ankle, for some reason she keeps crapping in the house I am about done with dogs. Matthew and Kera seem to be doing well, Matthew is back a work and Kera is feeling better :). Well better get back to work.

IT IS THAT TIME...FOOTBALL

Marcus will scrimmage Irving tonight and it is the sign that football season has begun. We will be headed to Irving this evening to watch Marcus play. Trey did see the Dr. yesterday and they said he might get to play in 6 weeks , now lets pray the season last longer than that just kidding it does it last until November so hopefully he will be to go out a time or two. Anyway my last kiddo starts his last first day of school Monday .. getting kind of teary. Graduation will be for Trey on June 12th @ 6 p.m. Anyway real teary now so I am done here.

Friday....

It is Friday and David is off this weekend. As life would have it we have to be at the High School for football pictures all morning on Saturday.. and welcome back to football party Saturday Night. It will be fun and knowing this is our last year makes me sad but I know it will not be our last Marcus Football Game... The stadium is going up and it will be close to our house and David loves 5 A Texas Football. We have no other plans than that ..well the usually laundry, clean house and yard work. Pray for Kyle to come to a decision which school he wants to do first firefighting or welding.. he is planning on doing both but which one first?

IT IS A BOY :)

Matthew just called and said it is a Boy. He sounded so excited, I am so happy for them.

Clean House

Wednesday night I cleaned for company... My mom, my mother-in-law, my father-in-law, my sister-in-law all staying the night with us Thursday night. David and Kyle with my super sweet in-laws left for Arizona and Cheryl left for Medford, Or. I left them all at DFW airport at 7 am Friday. They threw me a great early birthday. I got back to the house and mom and I were off to my office... the only reason my boss would let me off for the day is if I brought my mom up to work to meet everyone. When we got there they all put a very sweet gift bag together for me and made me my favorite cake. After mom met everyone and they all wanted to go with us shopping we were off to Allen to find her a suite we found 2 :) and I found some new very cool shoes to workout in they don't hurt or make my feet hot. Then we stoped at Frisco mall and walked around and found some clothes for me (clothes with color was on the request from the girls at work). We got back to Flower Mound around 3 then off to shop at Belks, then home to meet Shawna who came over for dinner to celebrate my B-day Trey and Lindsey came too, we went to Blue Goose and I love their margaritas so I had 2. :) Amy joined us when Alex was done hitting and running at baseball . We finished eating and headed to Kohl's for more shopping it was a great day. Saturday we went to Brock for a Michou family reunion one of my grandmother's sisters looks alot like my grandmother made me tear up.. Shawna said oh my no you don't. It was nice to get to see everyone. We were home around 3:30 or so. I had a terrific weekend and feel so blessed to have such great family and friends. Mom left this morning and I cleaned again ready for Monday.

Graduation finally

Kyles Graduation Pictures Finally -- for some reason I could not post any of my pictures so I had to wait on Mom to email the ones she took... I am so proud of Kyle.

Mom is Coming :)

David leaves out with Kyle on Friday but... my mom will be arriving on Thursday evening :). I am wondering if I should take the entire day off Friday but I would get off at 11:45 because I already am approved to take 1/2 day not to bad but we could do so damage she is looking for a suite for what I have no idea but it is just fun spending time with her. We will be going to Brock, Texas for a Michou family reunion on Saturday from what I understand there will be several of my cousins there with their families. Don't know if Amy is going due to baseball playoffs so we will just have to wait and see. Kyle is at the lake with some friends this evening so he will be a fried person when he gets home I have already put the alvera in the fridge. Trey is with Lindsey hopefully he will get on that online class he is taking. That is all for now. XOXO

Dinner :)

We had dinner with Kera Wednesday night. It was very nice to have her join us. We hung out for a little while , talked baby names which is always fun. I think she has some very cute names she is thinking about... that said she is a little worried about some of the name Matthew has come up with she said he wants something to do with "Walker Texas Ranger" she even said he said what about Ranger she told him it is not a dog... to funny makes me remember when David and I were doing the name thing he came up with one for Matthew that I was like uum NO, when I was prego with Kyle and Trey he kept trying to remember what the name was I just said " I don't know what you are talking about" :) hee hee hee. Anyway the name is burned in my head and I will never say it nor will I ever remind him of what it was. It is again super hot and the boys are at work, David is working on a truck for someone so I am here alone kinda of nice I cleaned and it is staying that way. He has another car to work on Monday hopefully it will be a little cooler we are suppose to get a cold front in Sunday night... I use that term cold very loosely, but my sister in law had this front on Monday and she woke up to 47 degrees I know we wont be that lucky but a breeze would be nice at this point.

June is here and it is HOT!!

June has seemed to arrive.. with tornado's and heat. That aside our house has calm down after all the celebrations of Kyles graduation. Even though I think we made it to the event before him, Amy and Daniell let him in line to get to park then he dropped his tassel and Daniell said hey do you need this, Kyle said I don't know do I? NOT FUNNY he was not as late as some we saw escorted in so that is good. Make me a nervous wreck. Work is going good ,it is great to see Amy everyday and get to chat with her, I think she is getting a kick out of the others who work there I can hear her laugh which make me laugh. Trey is back at work after a few weeks off to heal he has a long way to go but it is looking good stitches are out. Kera is here we saw her for a little bit for Kyle's party then at the baby shower which was so fun to watch her see all the boy things people gave them. Hope to get to see her before she leaves I know it is hard to get everyone in when you come to visit. Hopefully we will get a visit before she has to go back. Tomorrow is Friday and I am glad and hopefully get to sleep in Saturday.:)

Monday..3 things

Top on the list is Kyle will officially be done with High School 7 days from today. I am so proud of him I could explode into tears... well I have and will again. 2ND Trey is back to school and doing OK on pain med. I do expect a call before the end of the day. Last as usually I lost 18.8 pound in 10 weeks just shy 1.2 lbs away of my 20 lb. goal. I am not disappointed in myself I think I did well. The looser challenge my work will be doing it for another 10 weeks--- this time it gets interesting because Amy now works with me and is going to do the challenge with us.... and we all know she is very competitive so hopefully some of that will rub off on me. :0 I love her being here at work with me.. she brought me a Starbuck this morning.. so sweet.

My Friday

We arrived at Baylor Surgery Center just before 9am Friday morning was met with good news. It seems the athletic dept. has an insurance policy that helps pay for injury's up to $1250. of our out of pocket...NICE. No payment due yesterday for the surgery. The anaesthetist ask if he could pray for Trey and the surgery before they got started so the Ortho doc and the Anaesthetist doc laid hand on Trey and prayed with all the nurses bowing their heads.. can I say I was take so back and was at peace with this whole thing. We got to bring him home around 2 and he seems to be doing fine. The pain blocker will wear off sometime today so pray for him to be able to be comfortable. David fixed an AWESOME dinner last night he is amazing cook, I am so blessed. Kyle bought a riding lawn mower off of craigslist last weekend. It is a craftsman listed new at sears for $1500. but on sale for $900 and he paid less than $500. It is 2 years old, he bought it because he and or David would have to push mow the backyard and with Trey out for the summer Kyle said I am not doing that back yard all summer with a push mower... he is so funny. Anyways everyone is still asleep so I will keep you posted on Treys recovery.

Trey Shoulder!

We will find out this morning when exactly the surgery will be for Trey's shoulder. It seems it is the best thing for someone his age. I will see if we can post the picture of the MRI later today. I feel like my mom when I told her Trey was having surgery she said "I think I will go throw up now". Seems a little overwhelming right now considering he is not passing Alg. 2 so who knows. Sorry this is random but that is just me right now. I will post when I know more.

Long Night

David and Kyle are out of town visiting my dad in New Mexico. We have new neighbors who have a big dog and with our dogs that was what made my night soooo long. Dang barking until I had Trey put them in the house. Needless to say I be tired. Trey goes to the prom tomorrow night I will post pictures. They are taking a limo hummer with several other couples to Frisco where the prom is being held. Other than that I am just chillin.

Gym

We did it we took the plung and joined a gym.The boys have to contribute some to help defray the cost, which is less than half of what it would cost them if they joined on there own. I will let you know how it goes but I did workout yesterday, which helped I am sure burn some of the coke off I drank this weekend. Mom and James came to town and we had so much shopping fun. I bought mom note pads that said shopping, shoes, and retail therapy. She loved it James not so much. Funny never the less. Easter was very quiet Kyle and David went to Greenville I stayed back because Trey did not get off work until 2. Works biggest looser challenge is coming along. I have moved up the board from being the least person to loose any weight the first week to the 7th to the 5th and I have lost the same amount each week averaging 2 pounds a week. I am happy with that. :)

Kyle

I have been pondering over what I want to say for weeks about Kyle. I think I have it... Kyle has finish school 9 weeks early such an accomplishment. We are sooo proud of him. What he has completed in the last 13 years is amazing, over coming his dyslexia and graduating from high school and then to do it early. Unless you have any kind of learning disability you can not even begin to understand what he has been throug. This is the message he sent me after his last class. :mom can we go to lunch oh yea I am done with school: Let me tell you I cried so hard. He brought me a bouquet of flowers and said thanks mom for helping me and being there to see me through school. Words cannot express how I feel right now. Now we are on to looking at different options for him maybe firefighting school or maybe a junior college. Whatever it will be I know he has determination to finish and be successful. Please pray for him to seek out guidance from The Lord as he makes these decision in the next few months.

From a Pool and a Deck to a Bench

After much conversations we have decided to take the pool down... It kind of made me sad to see it go good memories. The kids had such a good time playing water volleyball for the last 6 years. Last summer it was not used much at all so we figured the time was over. We used the decking and are in the process of building a corner seating area on the back porch. Half of it is done it is a mom wanted projected and boys did not but I know there is more memories ahead for us to have sitting on the back porch...

Biggest Looser...

I am going to be taking part in a Biggest Looser Challenge at work. We are doing this for 10 weeks starting a week from Monday. I am so excited, I am not really a competitive person but I think this will be so much fun. Work is going great but next week I will be on my own the other girl who answers the phones will be on vacation,eek. We are taking down the pool we did not use it much at all last year and feel like we are done with it, the cool thing is we found someone with 3 kids with different special needs that is going to come get it, that makes me feel good. I think a backyard makeover is in the future. Kyle and Trey are working like crazy seem to be good with that. We working on getting Kyle an automobile (Suzuki Samurai) long story. Kyle will be done with school the week after spring break we are so proud of him.. I know I am going to cry so hard in June when the graduation is and probably in two weeks too. David is working today and he will have his review and inventory soon so pray for that to go well. That is all I have for now ...

The front of the house is done YEA

We and I use that term loosely... got the front yard and entryway done.. but now we sold the pool and have the backyard to do I guess. Oh well what else would we be doing. Amy helped with the front flowerbeds Thanks you so much hugs and kisses to you. Kyle and Trey worked all weekend. All is good here..

Looking Better

Our front yard is looking better. Thanks to Amy I was able to go get my dirt for my front flowerbeds. Thanks to Brian and Michael I got it all unloaded into the beds. Now we just have to figure out what to plant. Kyle is working at subway and seems to be liking it ok. Trey is still at Arbys. So noone is here when I get home from work. I get to pick up the house and have some quite time :). Both boys worked all weekend so that is why I had Brian and Michael help me unload the dirt. Amy and I were like Thelma and Lousie driving down I35 with a load of dirt and the wind blowing 35 miles an hour that day.. it was funny. Sunday we helped Michelle with speech and then had dinner together. Lots of fun. Monday was very busy with the phones at work I took like 75 calls in 8 hours. Well off to cook dinner.
