A sleep-over

Last night, Madalyn and Loraly had a sleep-over at Ma and G-daddies---mommy was very exhausted from the night before as Loraly has had an ear infection and Sophie has not been feeling herself either---so, after snacks and a very long bubble bath I finally got them to bed around 10, way past Madalyns bedtime for a school night---they were jumping on the bed watching a mirror as they jumped---Loraly shouted out "Look at me, I am the Statue of Libberdy""
I then got them laid down and we were talking, I ask them what was something they really would like to do someday---Madalyn said, "go to California and New York"--Loraly on the other hand said, " I want to go to Disney, ride my favorite ride then see my favorite show and then see all the princesses--and then said,and make all my dreams come true!"
Soon, sweet little princesses, soon!




Last Tuesday, Madalyns 1st grade class put on the play "Jack and the Beanstalk"---Madalyn got the play the cowbell and did a great job--we are so proud of you!!!

One Day


one of these days he will get one of his girls to watch a race and root for Jeff Gordon with him, looks like Sophie is in training!

The Hug

today, I recieved a hug from a mother, a hug of gratitude--all because I just looked back...that hug moved me so, I felt her love of her child thru that hug...for that I am humbled.

This Sunday, Mike and I traveled to Kerrville where my sister and her family lives. Brandon is her oldest son, he enlisted in the Army Reserves a few years ago right after his HS graduation---he got the word last week that it was time to go to Iraq early June--he left Monday night to go to San Antonio for intensive training before Iraq..he is a Black Hawk crew chief, mainly medivac evacuation, so this will be a very long and dangerous time for Brandon...
Mike designed the artwork on Brandons cake and pic, the Blackhawk pics were from a friend at work, he scanned them and made a collage then we had WalMart scan the paper and make the cake, it really turned out awesome!
We enjoyed getting to see him and seeing some friends of the family, also getting to meet his sister Tiffanys new fiance... they plan on waiting till Brandon gets back before they get married.
Godspeed Brandon!
