Book Signing....



On December 10 Richard heard the Glenn Beck conversion story. He was really impressed by the story and came home and told be the story. I was intrigued and went to his home page the next day. I found that he would be in Irving that night signing books. On a whim we decided to go and buy a book to get signed. How fun! We stood in line for an hour waiting for him to show up. He was about 45 min. late. Once he was there the line moved fast. We had two book signed--one for us and one for Aunt Zelma. We met some interseting people. We had a great time! Here are some pictures of us in line and then in front of his tour bus. You can just make out Chiron and me. These are not the best quality pictures. I used the camera on my cell phone.

EASY????

Last night I was rocking my baby to sleep listening to my boys playing wii in the other room. This is the conversation that I heard between Daniel and Nathan.

N: Hey Daniel, do you know how to spell "easy"?
D: Yes
N: Then spell it.
D: EASE
N: No, that's not how you spell it.
D: How do you spell it then?
N: ESAY
D: OH

So This Is Christmas...
























It is a tradition in our family that the boys get matching sweaters. It was a little tricky trying to find a sweater for a new born that would match the older boys sweater, but it seemed to work out. I thought that they looked fantastic Sunday. After church we came home and took pictures for our Christmas cards. I know that they will be a little late this year. Better late than never. I didn't use any of these pictures in the card so they are an added bonus. I love taking pics of my boys; although, at times it can be very challenging. I hope that you all enjoy them. Merry Christmas :)

FLOWERS FOR ME???????


Life has been hectic lately. There are many reasons for this--new baby, lack of sleep, activities to attend, sickness, scouts, camping, work, cleaning house, christmas shopping, etc. I have felt a little stressed and fatigued. So the other day I was sitting on the sofa going over spelling words with Qualan and this van pulls up to my house. I watch a guy get out with these flowers. Attatched to the flowers is a red balloon with I LOVE YOU written on it. It is so nice to be remembered and thought of. Thank you Richard! I love them!!

Retreat...




The Day after Thanksgiving we took a mini vacation to Oklahoma. We rented this cute little cabin. The cabin was stocked with movies and games. The boys loved the hot tub and playing horse shoes. The weather was a bit cold. It would have been nice to have warmer weather. Infact, the day we left it was snowing. We had a big camp fire and roasted hot dogs and marshmellows. There is a lake here where you can rent a boat, ski jets etc. It was just too cold to do that. We had a great time though. FUN!
