crying over corn bread

This evening, not long ago, tears were shed over corn bread.

Some nights are just like that.....

Just think...

Just think,

you're here

not by chance,

but by GOD's choosing.

HIS hands formed you

and made you

the person you are.

HE compares you

to no one else-

you are one of a kind.

You lack nothing

that HIS grace

can't give you.

HE has allowed you to be here at this

time in history

to fulfill HIS

special purpose

for this generation.

This is on my monthly planner, I read it daily and thought it worthy of being shared :)

the wink

Once again our evening was filled with a small amount of comedy.

I was pestering Jaxson just a little bit...giving him a good tease.

It was all in fun, we were both laughing.

He kept puttering out between laughs Mom, be quiet. You're funny. Nun-uh

Then rolled right off his fourth grade tongue, SHUUUTT UPP....

Realizing what he said, and remembering I'm not fond of those words

came the wink.

The wink cracked me completely up!

Maybe you had to be there?

wondering

I'm wondering......

• Is there a right or wrong way to post a picture and add a caption?
• Should the photo be above the caption, or below?
• Which way does it flow the best?
• I'm wondering if this was covered in one of the multiple English Writing classes I once, a long, long time ago, was a student in?
• Which has me now wondering if my 12, 10 or even 7 year old may be smarter than me?
• NEVER!
• Now I've concluded that this wonder probably isn't really worth wondering about?
• Does it really matter?

basketball

Again this year Jaxson participated in basketball. He was super excited to be part of one of the traveling 4th grade teams.

Below are a few photos of Jax in action.De De De DefenseHmmmm I'm confused......is that a football???? If you read my previous post titled JUMP, this is what it's all about...

a wee little bit of air time.

Late last night as I sat in front of this very screen, blog hopping, I came upon a website that sent me to bed with the giggles. Literally, I slid into bed beside my toasty warm hubby and burst out with uncontrollable laughter, as I plotted my idea.

The poor guy...I said all I could without telling him what was SOOOO funny! He hates that.

I'm borrowing someones idea and plan to design my own version this Sunday night. Oh I can already here the......

"MOM" from behind the bathroom door, teeheehee.

Perhaps you'll want to join me in my wacky, weird, sure to cause a giggle endeavor.

I think the idea is fabulous, homemade. I would NEVER spend money to buy the designer addition. Just grab your red sharpie maker, a roll of the cushioning white stuff and leave your love note for your loved ones to find!

Hilarious :D

what happens in mexico......

......doesn't ALWAYS stay in Mexico. Yes, it is a real live monkey.

The little fella and his owner roamed the resort posing for pictures. He was rewarded with sunflower seeds, which he's digging for in Mom's hair.

She didn't mind the Spider Monkey on her arm but when it jumped on top of her head she wasn't quite so sure.

In this photo we're celebrating like young girls do. We loved, loved, loved our vacation and opted to have the complimentary photo shoot. Ricardo had us jump in the sand...1, 2, 3, JUMP! Looking at this photo-we're dorks-brings back memories of my cheerleading days(ugh!) Poor Moms hips hurt for 2 days.....BUT, she didn't slow down, she's a RoCkStAr! and packs like one too;-)

Mom,

Thanks for an AWESOME trip!

Love You!
