K Jokes

One of my K students just told this joke and I thought it as cute:

Why did the chicken cross the playground?
-To get to the other "slide"

Hahaha! Kids......

Camping with the Nix's

It seems as though I only do a post on Mondays to catch up from the weekends. This no Internet at home thing is tough for me!! While my kiddos are in Computer Lab I will go ahead and post some pictures from this weekend. Evan and I met his best friend, Matt and his wife Denise in Toledo Bend State Park this weekend for our annual camping trip. It is a weekend filled with fun, camp fire songs, Smores, good eats, friends, and relaxing. We hope to make this a tradition even when we have kids. The weather was perfect and we had a great time! Man, I really want another Smore right now!!!

Happy Birthday Mom!

We celebrated mom's birthday last night. I made homemade roast beef po-boys and a cake..YUMMY! Her gift was a custom homemade apron..of course! HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOMMA!!!!

Family Festivities

On Wednesday night, my sister -in law, brother-in-law and niece and nephew came to visit us through Sunday. It was lots of fun and so good to get to hang out with them since they live in Texas. We all crammed into our 1 bedroom apartment with 2 air matresses (1 of which deflated mid night on poor Jamie). We celebrated Evan's 25th Birthday, went to the Madisonville Boat Fest and just had some good family time. Here are some pictures from the weekend:

Katy Bug has the most gorgeous eyes!!!

Tyler is getting so big!

Bug was teething all weekend and found comfort in this!

Evan's Birthday Dinner: White Chicken Chili...so Yummy!

Evan said he wanted to be surprised with a really cool birthday cake this year. I decided to make him a guitar cake. It was a lot of fun and now I can't wait to have kiddos to make cakes for. I think it turned out pretty good, and he was shocked and pleasantly surprised!

I also got him a guitar strap for his guitar. He's been wanting one for a while. Needless to say, he's excited. It went along with the theme.

At the Madisonville Boat Fest

Tyler was so excited about his boat!

All the boys playing PlayStation football...go figure!

Weekend FUN!

What a fun filled weekend Evan and I had. It was busy busy but great. Here are some photos of all of the fun filled events we did.

Friday night I used my sewing machine for the first time. IT IS AWESOME. The computer programming makes it so easy!!!

Saturday morning we woke up at 5:30 to go fishing. This would be the first time to take the boat out and for me to fish and use my new fishing pole. However, the boat would not start. We decided to go to the pier and fish anyway. It was relaxing and I was excited to catch the first fish. Yes, it is small, but it's my first fish ever! I was also sad that it did not hook in his mouth, but in his gill and eye.....poor fishy. Evan caught one after me and a baby crab. It was a lot of fun...but I would not touch those yucky worms.







On Saturday my school had a Fall Festival. Ryn and Shannon came. The guys got bored real easily, but it was fun to see my kids enjoying the games.



On Sunday our friends Larry and Sharman took us to the Saints vs Raiders game. We always have a blast with them when we go! It was a great game and the Saints rocked the house and won!!!! Sad to say, I did not get nachos though...they downgraded the nachos and you all know that is one of my favorites! Hopefully NACHO BOYCOTT o8' will make them realize we want good nachos ;) Seriously there were signs and stickers that said Nacho Boycott and Hell no-We won't Na-cho!

I cut myself out of one of the pictures, therefore there is a small one of Evan and Larry and Sharman. It was one of those pictures that make you go..."I think I will starve myself...FOREVER!" Didn't think you guys would want to see my 10 chins. Maybe it's a good thing I didn't get the nachos;)





Then on Sunday night we celebrated Jena's 20th Birthday. I cannot believe she is 20!!!!!




Audrey is serious about her teething! Like a dog after a bone.


Barb flung ice-cream at mom and they got a good laugh out of it!




Season 5 of One Tree Hill!!!I can't wait!!!! Brooke already wants to watch it.
