Another weekend, come and gone! A few highlights:
*Lots of trips to Home Depot/Lowe's/Sherwin Williams/Kelly Moore. We are doing some painting and repairs on our current house.
*Lauren spent some time with us on Saturday while Josh was reffing a Dodge Ball Tournament at church. It was fun having her hang out with us.
*Boys' Night Out on Saturday night. Usually once on the weekend, the three boys go out together. Matthew and Thomas look forward to it all week. They will either go to the store, Barnes and Noble, or the movies. Saturday night, they went to see 8 Below, the new Disney movie about dogs that were stranded in freezing weather for several months. They said it was wonderful!
*I took Matthew to his best friend's birthday party on Sunday.
Matthew feels like it is the ultimate compliment to a child to root for their favorite team even though he doesn't like that team. Case in point: Matthew had a girl in his class who was hospitalized with pneumonia in December. The whole class wrote her get well cards. I saw the girl's mother over Christmas and she thanked Matthew for the "Texas Tech" card he made for her!
On the way to the party, he told me that he was going to tell Ethan "Gig 'em Aggies". He said, "I am going to whisper it, though, because I don't want anyone else hear me say it!"
*We went driving yesterday looking at houses. We are still working on the house plans to the house we are eventually going to build on our lot. The more I look, the more I change the plans, the more confused I get.
*We watched the Super Bowl over at my parents house last night. Mom made corn chowder which is one of my favorite things she makes. In the second quarter, Thomas and ME had "potty issues" which forced me to go home with them. Bryon and Matthew stayed for the game. Thomas was very disappointed that Seattle didn't win. He had a hard time keeping the tears in. My mother went to Seattle this Fall and brought back a Seattle sweatshirt and football for Thomas. Thomas adores the football and calls it "footbie". He carries it around like a stuffed animal.
*Watched Grey's Anatomy after the Super Bowl. I honestly don't know how I will wait another week for the conclusion!
The weekends come and go so quickly! I am looking forward to a great week.

I only got to see the last 15 minutes or so of Grey's Anatomy but still am anxious to see the show next week!
WOW - Grey's Anatomy was amazing. That was SUCH a great episode. Sunday can't get here soon enough!
I stumbled across your blog and wanted to let you know that I made your Comfort Chicken this past weekend and it was such a hit! Thanks so much for sharing that recipe....and by the way, your children are beautiful!
I made Comfort Chicken too and it was yummy. My boys loved helping me put the noodles in the bowl. Can't wait for the next recipe installment!
Grey's was really good! They pulled out all the stops for the after Super Bowl time slot!!! Can't wait until next week!
