Saturday 10-12-13

It started out to be such a relaxing day! I got to dye my hair and Dallas slept in a little bit! Arielle had a game against the Panthers at 2. There game had a 45 minute delay during the game due to lightning in the area. I left early with Dallas and we headed home. The Poe's had come by and we were going to go shopping together for a little bit but Arielle was supposed to have a 2 hour practice after the game. They decided to forgo shopping and enjoyed a little Mexican snack with us!! We stopped at the place in downtown Royse City. We had plans to surprise Scotty at Dave and Busters for his 30th birthday later that evening. 

It was a fun night and enjoyed seeing everyone. Kiddos had to leave at 11, so Lance and I headed out :) Arielle spent the night with Haley and Destiny was at her grandparents house for the weekend. 

Slacker I am!

I have been really bad at updating my blog lately! Oops! Sunday, Lance and I got to go the Cowboy game! It was my first game at the new stadium, and it was pretty awesome!! We left early and tailgated with a few of Lance's buddy's from work. 

We threw the football (one of my favorite things to do!) as well as played corn hole, which was also my first time! The game was against the redskins and I actually payed attention! The stadium is beautiful and so different than Texas stadium was. 

We had a blast and the Cowboys won! So every Redskin fan wearing their jersey got a "good game" on the booty by yours truly! I am so random sometimes!! I may or may not have had a few beers ;-) my parents took Dallas, Arielle & Zoe to lunch at Torchey's Tacos and then the Arboretum for some fun. 

This last picture is by far my FAVORITE! What a ham!! The kiddos had fun with Mimi & Umpy, we are blessed to have them in our lives!!! I am thankful I have a safe place for my munchkins to go and enjoy themselves with good people who love them!

JUST BETWEEN FRIENDS

Oh em gee---the best sale ever is this week!!! I am getting more excited now that I am getting my tagging done!! Three kids worth of washing, ironing, hanging, typing, printing & actually tagging can be a lot of work If you keep putting it off! I like to wait and do it all at one time because I feel like I have all pieces out, outfits are back together and I can pull hats and or shoes to go with stuff! 

The drop off is Tuesday and I need to get my booty in gear! Still have 2t to type in! If anyone hasn't heard of JBF, please look up www.jbfsale.com! It's the largest consignment sale and by far the best! 

(Here is a picture of the house shoes I am about to type in!)

NEW Additions!!

Long time no blog! Here's a quick catch up of new family members :) 

First we had to build the new tank before bringing the new fish home. 

Then we got to pick out our fish. We went for 3 Glofish :) They are pretty cool, they glow under the blue led light...and 2 Black Molly's. 

Adding the fish a little at a time :)

So far I have kept all 5 fish alive :) I'm doing pretty good!!! 

We also added another member to the Smith Family!

Meet Boss Hog Smith! He is an English Bulldog. 11 weeks, wrinkly and about as cute as they come! We have had him a little over a week, and he's quite the chewer. I have to stay on his little hiney. 

 Of course Lance and the kids absolutely LOVE him! (He reassures me...no more babies!!) 

Dallas showing Boss the ropes! 

Last but not least, the most important addition of all: we had my sister-in-laws reveal today!! So we will welcome a sweet baby girl in February :) I can't wait to meet her! 

So exciting!!! It was an amazing day with family and friends. Little Kenzie is going to be such a loving and helpful big sister!

Shoot!!

Today was such a fun day!!! It was my first time shooting a gun, and I actually ended up shooting a variety of arsenal :) I got to hang out with both Dads & Lance. Here is a list of things I got my hands on:

-38 Revolver (my gun)

-AR 15

-shot gun

-Lance's blacked out 45

-22 Revolver

-9 millimeter 

Today was a pretty awesome day!! I enjoyed getting to shoot for my first time ever!! :) It was also a full day of firsts': got to see Lance shoot, My Dad shoot, my first time shooting, and last but not least, sweet Arielle got fake nails! Yikes!! 

We got nails & toes before we had some target practice with my dads!! 

Even Lanci-poo got his Mani/Pedi on! I love when he tags along, it makes his hands and feet look so much nicer. I also think it looks cleaner and more professional for work! He works with people, shaking customers hands daily,  he DESERVES manicured cuticles and filed nails with a touch of shine from the buffer! 

After nails and shooting, Shannon, Presley, Mom, Jennifer, Arielle and I ran to a thrift store in Garland. It was a quick trip, but as always...great company and good conversation with my girls! I am looking forward to an extra day of fun since most everyone has Monday off for Labor Day.

Here is a face only a Mother could love! He took a 5 hr nap with his Daddy, stayed up for a couple of hours, and is already out for the night. He spent the last night with his Mimi & Umpy and probably had TOO much fun!!!! :) so blessed and thanks to the good Lord above! Time for this mama to get some sleep! 

Laundry Day!!

I am STILL playing catch up from our trip! I have done load after load of laundry!!! Sheets, blankets, towels, clothes, clothes and more clothes!!! I have been setting things aside to iron and also included things that need to be ironed for Just Between Friends!!! My Mom gave me a rolling type rack to use since she redecorated her laundry room! I have been purging Dallas' closet and hanging those clothes on my new rack! He had got WAY too many clothes and not enough space!!! It doesn't help that I have a shopping problem!! I have been very picky lately and only shopping for my favorite things! I received an email back from Stacey at Just Between Friends, she is going to take a look at my blog. I am so excited to volunteer for something new! I have so many avenues I want to explore here recently, I am trying to keep my ducks in a row! Tomorrow morning I am getting up at 5:45 to make my girls bacon & eggs! Then taking Dallas to a play date with Natalie & Kaelynn, Deborah & Madi. I also promised to take my Father to his doctor appointment at 1:00, so it's a full day! I also plan to record my entry video to Spout's Host Hunt!! :) 

Arielle informed me at dinner that one of her cheer coach's quit. I have been unhappy with their practices & routine thus far, so it's almost like a blessing in disguise. I will email tomorrow and see if there is anything I can do to help out :) The older Dallas gets, the easier it is to volunteer my time to accomplish things I thoroughly enjoy!! 

Today was busy, busy as always...but here is a picture of Dallas at Target earlier

He LOVES their popcorn! When I pull up, he says, "Target?!?" "Popcorn!!!" It makes me laugh! He is pretty smart and his personality melts my heart! He can be a little spit fire but is so caring and convincing! He will repeat the same phrase numerous times until you understand him, acknowledge him and make it happen! :) He is a determined little guy!!
