Whassup?

Hello all!  What's new? We've been a little busy around here. . .




This is what we did after the busiest Easter Sunday service and luncheon ever. You're never too old or too young to enjoy some driveway chalk hopscotch!











And then there was this. . .
We thoroughly enjoyed the $20 seats that came with a hot dog, a drink and a free hat!  Supermom didn't think to bring any sunscreen - but the smart mom with a big "mom bag" in the row in front of us shared.  Too bad the Astros lost!

And of course, you can't leave out this. . .




A much needed date night out at Kemah with some great friends! Who are those two smiling, free-spirited people? We had to "breathe in the smell of relaxation" after we parked the car.  We've been a little wound up!










We've done some exciting things. . .
while The Hubs was away at a conference. Supermom took the kids to Chuck E Cheese and won the "Best Mom Ever" award for bringing some coupons that landed us with 100 tokens (oh the crazy amount of tickets and shopping for junk that ensued).

We've celebrated some firsts. . .
a precious time in every young boy's life!  I don't know why we waited so long!

And in the midst of the busyness, we've taken some time to revel in a Saturday with no plans (except for the poor Hubs who planned a work day at the church). . .

So, that's what we've been doing. . . keeping our heads up and remembering that "No, despite all these things (the busyness of life) overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us." Romans 8:37

I am a Promise!

I am a Promise! I am a possibility.   I am a Promise,   With a capital 'P'. I am a great, big bundle of potentiality!     And I am learning to hear God's voice. And I am trying to make the right choice. I am a promise to be anything He wants me to be! (My future scientist, artist, engineer and vet are courtesy of the Houston Children's Museum.)

Stupid is as stupid does

Ok, so have you ever had one of those days where things are just messed up?  That was me today. I stayed up too late last night so it was hard to get up this morning.  Had to be at work for an 8:00 meeting and caught EVERY red light between my neighborhood and work.  No big deal, they weren't ready to start when I walked in (with my supervisor) at 8:05.  But, in order to get there even close to 8:00, I skipped making a stop at the gas station to fill up.  I did the math all the way to work - when did the light come on? How many miles had I gone since then?  After work, I planned to stop at the nearest gas station - but, you guessed it, I didn't make it.  Nothing like running out of gas in rush hour traffic! I sat there, embarrassed, trying not to look at the people glaring at me as they passed me - I was stopped just shy of a major intersection.  The Hubs was close by so he came to my rescue - but my car keeps the radio and lights running for 10 m...

Winter Storm 2011

Well, I think we're going to make it. The threat of 5 inches of snow is now past - and we've not missed a single moment of electricity or heat. The biggest dilemma at our house is that the Xbox won't play right now.  Kid #1 continues to ask "What are we gonna do today?" and we finally answered with "Nothing!" I do need to introduce you to the newest members of the family. . . The two tetras have been around for several years and just got upgraded to a bigger tank. They have now been joined by 2 beautiful guppies and a molly.  None of them have been named yet, but I'm putting in my vote today: the black one should be 'Vader' (as in Darth), and I think the guppies should be Phineas and Ferb.  The tetras would have to be 'Peat' and 'Repeat' since you can't tell the difference between them.  What do you think?  (Which is funny that I ask, because a. you probably won't respond and b. they're not my fish to name) I...
