Must Be Cold Down There Today

I joked with Cara last night that hell must have frozen over because we were at my house in Bossier City on the 2nd weekend of teal season watching the LSU game with both of our husbands. 😉

They both had extenuating circumstances today. Katie was supposed to have her first soccer game that Matt was planning to come in for but even though that got canceled he still came to keep the kids because we had not worked out a sitter so I could show houses and Raegan was also out of town. Cara had a pretty bad fall last weekend and her wrist is still hurt so Luke came home to help with Josie. When she and I were talking earlier in the day and realized they were both home we decided to take advantage of it and all get together. But of course they we’re out the door and back at it early this morning 


We had a pretty fun afternoon too. After I got done showing, me and Lillian went to see a movie that she had been wanting to see in theaters and Matt and Katie went to Bass Pro shops to get him some things he needs for his Canada trip next week and they enjoyed their daddy daughter day.

I love when we get one on one time. As we were driving there Lillian randomly said “I love you mama.” And Matt said he had the same experience with Katie as she was skipping around the store she turned around and said, “Daddy, thank you for taking me to Bass Pro shops.” Such sweet moments make the most special memories.

I think someone may be a little spoiled....

  So Lilli has been sick the last two days with a croup cough.  She's had fever and the cough has been nasty so Mom has been making her stay in.  I think she is getting a little stir crazy and decided what she wanted to do instead.  It started when I told her we were going to see Yaya for lunch tomorrow.  Yaya is being so sweet and going to entertain her for a bit while I get my hair cut and then we'll grab some lunch.  I know someone that will be excited to get out of the house but especially to see her Yaya!

Summertime!

Yesterday was Bossier’s last day of school, but we’ve been in summer mode since they got done LEAP testing a couple of weeks ago. It’s honestly so dumb that they had 10 days of school after testing because they did NOTHING. There was a whole lot of movie watching and playing on computers. On top of the fact that grades were due over a week ago, so it’s not like there was much they could have done. We stayed out on school nights, had pool days and skipped half days to hang with Pops, or friends or just to bake.  Katie had her awards and field day last Wednesday. She ended the year with Straight A’s and a member of National Honor Society. It was so fun to watch her compete in field day events and get to meet some more of her school friends too I checked Katie, Madison and Britney out of school when it was over, and they spent the afternoon in the pool and then we all (with Koy and Lil) went to Josie’s Tball game that night. It was the second one we’d been to in a week and I swear it’s th

For Christmas last year, Pops and Honey gave his 3 daughters and 4 granddaughters a weekend at a “dude ranch” for a gift. We picked the weekend because it was Anna and Piper’s spring break and it’s harder for Anna to miss school as a Junior than the other 3. The weather couldn’t have been anymore perfect and the timing worked out perfectly for us to celebrate Allie’s 40th birthday on the 4th too. They came in Thursday and Matt grilled steaks for her actual bday. I didn’t get one picture that night but it was a nice evening. The next morning, we got up and drove to El Dorado to the ranch. It was the “rancher’s experience” and we got in 3 rides, plus the kids got to help care for all the animals Dad has his own cabin and all 7 girls were in a bunk room together. After we were settled, we went to catch the horses in a field to take them to the stable to be saddled  The wranglers were very patient considering there were 8 of us and none knew how to help very much. But there was lots of tim
