Five On Friday

Were we the only ones hiding in the closet taking shelter this morning from the tornadoes here in East Texas? HA!

  • Lexie skipped school b/c I didn't want to drive her there during the tornado!! LOL I also thought of all the "what ifs"... if the tornado hit and how scared all the kids who were taking shelter must be... including Rylan... they had to take shelter in the girls' bathroom!! I can hear all the 8 year old boys giggling now. :) No tornado came to our neighborhood.
  • Rylan wants to "let his hair grow out"... we've done this before... we'll see how long it lasts this time!! HA Rylan also told me that he wants us to "have another son"... hmmm...
  • Lexie informed me that we need to call the "insurance guy" to come spray our backyard b/c ants were taking over Maggie's left-over dog food that she did not eat! I think she meant... exterminator... what do you think? hee hee
  • BT & I started a little "pre Mother's Day" gift to myself yesterday - a little flagstone walkway on the side of the house that we've, no, excuse me... I've been talking about doing for over a year now! (I'll have some before & after pics when I get the flower bed finished... hopefully soon!) The irony is that the day before my quiet time was about being a "living stone." 1 Peter 2:5 says that we are to be "living stones" exposing an empty tomb - showing proof that Jesus lives. Crazy huh? I couldn't help but think about it while doing some back breaking work. :)
  • Rylan rocked in his game last week!




TGIF!
