Finally home

The kids headed to Houston to spend the week with their grandparents.

But they didn't come home for THREE weeks!!

I was starting to put together a plan to collect donations to pay a ransom. lol

They had a really great time while they were gone. It's great that their grandparents live so close to us and so close to each other. They went back and forth between the two sets while they were gone. They love their grandparents so much and really enjoy spending time with them. Maybe that's why they didn't come home for three weeks?

A good time was had by all. I know they went to the movies more than once, went camping, and went fishing.

They even sent me proof.


Addison and Wyatt both caught the same fish.


Then she actually caught one of her own.


Kirsten caught one but I didn't get a picture of that.

They said they caught more than 30 overall. I'm just glad that they finally caught some. They're too old to still believe us when we tell them that the shad (bait) on the line is a fish they caught.

Now we're getting geared up for school to start on Monday. I'm also busy getting all of the driver's education class work printed out so we can get going on that. It's time to say good-bye to the laid back summer schedule and get ready for the school year busy that's coming.

While the kids are gone....

We've been having a wild time while the kids are gone. Theatre, concerts, dinners out. We'll have to slow down soon or we won't survive. Whoooo!!



Note to reader: Theatre really means that we went to the movies to see The Hangover. It was funny, FUNNY, FUN.NY. (We really liked it.)

Oh, and concerts really means that we went to the free summer concert in the park last night. It was an Irish band playing that one of our clients is a member of. (Well, actually my dentist is one of the band members and my belly dancing teacher is one.) But, hey, that counts right?

The band (The O'Malarky's):




Dax jamming during the concert:





But we really have gone out to eat a few times. It's been nice. And the kids are having a great time too. Win, win!


And here in a little bit we're heading to the gun range to practice. I'm taking my concealed carry class in a couple of weeks and I feel like I need to shoot a little before I actually go do that. And I don't think that I ever posted that when Dax went to take his he scored


(that's for you Mom & Dad)


which is a perfect score. Now I have to do very well to even be able to stand to listen to him. Ugh! Wish me luck!!
