It's Broken
I am trying to organize myself this morning... and feeling some sadness as I prepare to go downtown Dallas to file the Petition for Divorce. I really never thought this would happen. That's all I can say right now as I struggle to type with my heart tightening up and tears wetting my cheeks. Please pray for my children's hearts.

It was soooooo FUN!
We loved every minute of it! We had lots of silly hilarious family bonding moments-- Some of the hi-lights are below... of course we will never forget the infamous jellyfish of Galveston! 19 Stings (Jillian led the family with 9) We used a whole gallon of vinegar! We went to Moody Gardens, ate lots of seafood! Sang songs and played the ABC game in the car! Ate the best BBQ ever in Centerville, TX at a Shell Gas Station... "Woody's"!!! But the Ocean waves and sandy beaches were the best part!
We explored the downtown area and found this old-fashioned ice cream soda store with lots and lots of old-timey candy. We got some salt-water taffy and Jillian got a big lollipop!
Jillian's hands full of "treasure"!
Walking across the street to the beach!
Joy!

1st, 6th, & 8th!
WOW! Our babes our growing up so fast! Dave and I sung the song from the Staples or OfficeMax commericial... "It's the Most Wonderful Time Of The Year!" when the Dad is skipping down the aisles shopping for back to school supplies and the kids have a scowls on their faces! haha-- Well... Jordan kept saying... "Y'all are so mean!!" LOL ANYHOW... I captured some fun pics from our first day nonetheless!
Cheese!
NEXT... It was off to the Middle School.. We stopped at McDonald's for a special 1st day breakfast sandwich and then parked in a nearby church parking lot so the kids could scarf it down before heading into the school!
I guess I totally was taboo as I asked the kids to pose for a pic as they got out in the drop off lane at the middle school! LOL -- Jordan is saying... MOM! SERIOUSLY???!!!
BUT they appeased their faux pas Mom and did pose! LOL I love them!
8th grader Jordan... Miss Volleyball/Choir Girl!
Josh and Jillian-- Josh was up at the crack of morning-- (so not like him) I think he was anxious and nervous about beginning Middle School! and.. He is secretly happy to have his big sis as his guide! I just hope she will be kind to him through out the school year!
Sweet 1st grader!
OK... tadaaa! A big giant thank you to Uncle Mike and Aunt Jen for gifting the wonderful magical gift of "PICK ANY PAIR YOU WANT OFF ZAPPOS.COM" for back to school wear! So So sweet and awesome of them! This is the 4th year of this tradition!
He LOVES them! He immediately went outside to test them... and see how fast he could run in them! (I love it!) and... apparently it's "like I'm barefoot!" and that's a good thing!
Ok... Jordan chose brown "MONTAUK" Sperrys! She loves Sperry topsiders but these with the special name of her favorite New York Beach were really special!
OH... Size 8!
Very classic and cool! and... I hear Aunt Jen wants some just like these now! LOL
and like big sis... Jillian chose some Sperry Topsiders as well.. Size 3 LEOPARD Print with Pink! She says they are so comfortable... she kept telling Jordan... "you were right about these Sperrys!" ha!
The kids all had great 1st days.. Josh and Jor actually rode the bus this morning! That would have been a cute photo op but I was afraid of more embarrassment! ;)
Sweet Jilly ready for her 1st day of 1st grade! (ps she loved her teacher, Ms. Lowman!)
Cheese!
We got this backpack as a surprise free gift when I signed Dave and I up for PTA at Meet the Teacher-- and it was full of school supplies-- BUT because there were about 40 other similar backpacks given out for the same cause-- We tied a big pink striped ribbon around the top handle to distinguish hers! She said... "so the ribbon is like my Nametag!"

Lots of Summer 2010
I had to clear out my memory card so we can fill it up again while in Galveston. Here it is 2:35 AM and I'm blogging. Lately I have been having insomnia. My mind just won't rest even though I'm pretty sure I'm tired! anyhow... let's get to the fun stuff of Summer 2010 thus far...
OH and speaking of amazing sweetness...
Does that foot taste good?? in a real syrupy sweet high pitched voice... that's how Jilly talks to Hannah Bow!
Josh was loving it!
Here we go... These over the top cute Red Patton Boots that actually belonged to Aner when she was a babe! So cute!
These Boots were made for crawling!
CARUSO STEAM HOT ROLLERS FUN DAY... Jillian was so excited to have curly hair for a day!
Happy Beautiful Curly haired Princess!
Jordan giving Casie a facial!
Tisha with the green face!
Casie giving Jeff a facial! LOL
THE FOURTH OF JULY... Here they are in their Red White and Blue and very unthrilled for me to take their pics!
I know I look awful but I had to put it on otherwise someday when I looke back at this blog there will be no pictures of me on here. So... ugly gray roots and double chins must appear on the blog! ughgh
Here is skinny handsome Dave and Josher boy!
Daddy's girl Jill Bill! She's a sweety pie.... such a loving angel girl! OH how she brings us Joy!
Let's go back to Father's Day weekend...
We were "Grill Shopping" at Sears when we found the most amazing new Dyson Fan-- no blades-- just a wind tunnel of air. Simple things amuse us! LOL
Finally found THE Grill at Lowes! It is an amazing grill too! Dave is an expert bbqer!
Next we ate us some ribs at Red, Hot, and Blue! well, I actually had my usual standby favorite which is pulled pork sandwich Memphis style (means coleslaw on top) with warm german style potato salad. yum.
Here is the RIB GIRL -- TEXAS GIRL! ;)
Here are some fun "Cabela's" Pics from our Father's Day Outing! Jordan being a fish.
Jill and Josh posing in front of one of the many many stuffed creatures! It was awesome... Like a Museum for Free or Like an Air Conditioned Zoo! I highly recommend for everyone to go to Cabela's for the scenery!
Giant Fish Pillow!
D R E A M I N G!
On Safari at Cabela's!
Well.. that's it for now-- now it's 3:42 AM! I better get to bed.. It's GALVESTON OHH GALVESTON in the morning! LOL
A day with Aunt Aner, Hannah, and Luke!
This is the ONE and ONLY pic of Luke... I'm so sad-- got tons of Hannah as you will see below. He was a bit camera shy-- well not shy... more like annoyed! LOL I actually videoed him playing with his trains and when I called his name for him to look my way-- he just said in a straightforward flabbergasted way-- "CAMERA"-- as if to tell me... "STOP filming me!" haha I just love this sweet boy! I could sit and watch him play and interact and ask him fun questions about his "play" for hours! I sincerely wish I had more opportunity to do just that-- He is an amazing sweet boy!
