Their Trash, Our Treasure



We were coming home the other day and on the side of the road was a bike. It was in a pile of storm debris. So we stopped and asked our neighbor if she minded if we took it. She said she had put it out there because she was planning on moving soon and didn't feel like having to take it with her. Then her husband came out and said he has a 3 wheeler bike if we wanted it too. We said sure! It has a basket on the back of it, it's really cute. I have been wanting to buy a bike for a while now, so this was such a blessing.

We are so Punk Rock!!

We had a very busy weekend that started the minute Alexia got off the bus. We planed a sleepover for Friday night. First, she decorated her "sleepover" cake with her friend Sarah. After every one arrived, we had a treasure hunt. I would recommend this for any birthday party. It had 12 clues and ended with one big treasure. All the girls got a gift bag and were able to fill the bags with lots of treasures. It had candy, pencils, erasers, stickers, socks, and many more fun things. It was a big hit, all the girls loved it! Next, they took their "punk rock" pictures. They all dressed in their cool clothes and put on crazy eye makeup. They were so cool! Next, they ate pizza and the sleepover cake. Then finally, Alexia opened all of her gifts. I think this was her favorite part of the party. They stayed up all night long, giggling and having so much fun. I didn't get much sleep either but it was well worth it. Happy Birthday Alexia!

Growing Up


Our sweet Lexi is growing up, she turned 8 years old last week. If I dwell on the years past it brings tears to my eyes. My babies are growing up too fast! How can it already be that I have a 12 year old and an 8 year old? I can't believe how fast time goes by and how old this makes me. OK, I guess that's enough of my pity party.

We had a small family party for Alexia on her birthday. We had pizza and chocolate cake with pink icing. She got lots of board games, clothes, and MONEY! She will have her big sleepover this weekend. We are planing all kinds of fun thing to do, so I'll post new birthday pictures next week. She also wanted to thank everyone for the birthday emails. Happy Birthday Lexi!! We love you!

Westside Jr. High Band




Austin played in his first football game last night. The group of band members just started playing last year, but they sound awesome! They are all so talented. Way to go Austin, we are so proud of you! We can't wait to hear you playing at LSU someday.

The Past

After reading Amber's blog, I decided to "yearbook" my family. We thought it was so funny. So, I decided to show you what we would look like in the past. WARNING!! Some are a little scary. Me in the 80's
Austin with long waves in the 80's
I didn't even need to do this one, I can show you my own yearbook.
Alexia in the 60's (we kind of think she looks like an alien)
This one is "gay Sean" in the 90's
Alexia in 84'
Austin would make a pretty girl.


We call this "fat Sean"
