Catch up time

So this is what has been going on.....
The kiddos and I, along with Kim and Kyle went to visit our Mom/Granny last Thursday... of course we could not leave until after Alex's baseball training. Shawna and her boys met us there. We had a great time visiting ~ I will post some pictures later. The kids asked me if they could go swimming one day - it was a nice day about 60 degrees outside, but the water was much colder. I thought for sure that as soon as they put their feet in the water that would be it ~ Too Cold!!! WELL NO~~ Madyson did not get in, but the boys were jumping off the side and hurrying out of the water... but they kept on doing it!! It was so funny... what a great memory ~
We came back in town Monday afternoon. Back to work on Tuesday. Daniell left this morning for meetings in California. Thanks to Kim I was able to be at work on time. She took the kids to school for me this morning and tomorrow ~ Thanks Kim!! Daniell will be back late Friday night, so I am going to bribe my kids to be good and I will take them to a movie on Friday at Studio Movie Grill, pray it works!!!

I Survived

Well, my crazy, busy Thursday came and it was indeed crazy but, I survived! I did not get in bed until midnight... but that's okay. It is official all three of the kids will be wearing new glasses probably by next week or so. I will post a picture of them as soon as they get them.
Alex has a wrestling tournament in Dallas tomorrow morning. We have to be at Fair Park by 7:30. Thanks to Kim, Faith, and Kris I don't have to take Madyson and Joshua. I don't quite know what I am going to do with myself, not having to keep up with the 'Gage kids' all day. I am most certain it will be a nice break. Alex and I will have a great Mom and son time!!

Fun Time

Last night we went to Kim's and visited with Matt and Kera. She made a great dinner. It was even better that I didn't not have to cook or clean up my kitchen!!! Her house was FULL of people. It was nice to see them while they were here. The kids had a great time playing with Kyle's dog. I am not a dog person, but that dog is cute! My crazy, "gotta be a million places at once and my husband is out of town" day is here.... I know I will get it all done, we mom's always do!

CRAZY normal!!

Life is getting back to CRAZY normal real fast... Daniell is off on a business trip tomorrow, of course on Thursday ~~ New Grey's Thursday ~~ Anyhow thank goodness for DVR's! Tomorrow makes me tired just thinking about it! Alex and Madyson will stay after school for tutoring, Madyson has an eye appointment at 4, Alex has his batting trainer at 5 and wrestling at 6:30. Thank goodness Joshua's baseball practice has not started or I am sure that would be on Thursday too! Sometime in all that I need to do some laundry, dishes, and dinner. Oh and watch Grey's ~~ I know the show has gotten a little 'out-there', but it is just a tradition! My sister Kim and I used to watch Knot's Landing on Thursday evening, that was when her kids were much younger and I did not have any yet! And hey ~ it a great get-away for a few hours!
Alex has a wrestling tournament in Dallas Saturday. He has to weigh-in on Friday night! We have Hometeam on Sunday. Then it starts all over again on Monday.....

Happy Birthday Faith

Today is my friend Faith's 40th birthday!! SO....... Happy Birthday Faith!!! She has been a little depressed about this one. So Kim and I were talking and Kim suggested we TP her house, which had it not been 30 degrees and WET outside it would have been really funny. Instead, Kim made some posters and we went and hung them in her tree last night at 10pm.

Yesterday was back to school and back to needing to be in a million places at the same time! The kiddos have eye doctor appointments this week, baseball practice, wrestling practice, lots of homework, field trips at school, and Daniell is leaving to go out of town on Thursday and will not be back until Sunday! I also went back to the gym yesterday (uuugghh) THANKS KRIS ~ I really enjoy working out, but I just can't seem to get to there!! So maybe I will try at least 3 days a week to start! I am going back tonight :)

Happy Tuesday to everyone ~~~ And Happy Birthday Faith!!!

New Year's Eve

Home by 12:30!! We went to our friends house New Year's Eve and had a great time. The kiddos had so much fun playing with Hunter, Brandon, and Alyssa. We snacked on some good food, the kids had silly string, poppers, and very loud horns!!! It is great to have such good friends. It was also my friend Kris' birthday ~~ HAPPY BIRTHDAY KRIS ~~ (just had to make sure I say it again lol) Of course I forgot my camera, so no pictures..... Maybe next time! We sat around yesterday and did NOTHING ~~ it was great to just to relax and watch a little football. I hope everyone has a GREAT 2009!!
