Thursdays Drive Down Memory Lane...

This picture is really OLD...Taken back 1998...

Startin up top is Michael he was 5 in this pic...He is now 16, taking Driver's-Ed and taller than me!!!

Next to his right is Michelle she was 7 in this pic...She is about to be 18 next Wednesday, she is the same height as me, and is a Senior at Calallen...

To her right is Amber, she was 12 in this pic...She is now 23 and I have no idea what she is up to (even though I wish I did)!!!

Amber is holding Shelby, I think she was 6 months in this pic...She is 11, about to start 6th at Calallen and a total motor mouth, but I still love her!!!

Of Course I am in the pic and if ya know me...just yea...I was 14 in the pic next week I will be 25 (man I am gettin old)!!!

I am holding my lil Bro Colby...He is Shelby's twin and older by a minute...We lost him April 16th 2002 (my Senior year)...He was an amazing child, an angel on Earth and I miss him everyday.

I miss them all everyday!!! I don't have the relationships I would like with them, but I am really workin to change that. Family is BIG to me. This world is to chaotic and life is too short to not live it to the fullest with the ones you love and have ties to!!!

Sorry for the mushy gushy on this weeks Drive!!!

Thursdays Drive Down Memory Lane...

My whole world...

Robert with Cami...She is such a Daddy's Girl!!!

Thursdays Drive Down Memory Lane...

This pic is of Robert, Gage, and me...The day after Christmas 2003...

I was 6 months pregnant with Cami.

I love how sweet and innocent Gage was at that age...He is a teenager now, sweet and innocent left hitched a ride with his stable mood in a monster truck awhile back!!!

The Fun Has Begun...

The chaos has begun...

Cami and Gage started school on the 20th...

That same week Cami was moved up a level in gymnastics and will be competing at the end of the month along with meets in Sept and Oct...She had her first Mock Meet in Rockport on Saturday, and she did so well...Tomorrow I sign her up for Girl Scouts...

The Level 2's from Northwest Kids...

Gage started Football today...Sr Packers QB...

Hayden will start Dance in September...

I am an official "Soccer Mom"...Loving that my kids are so active and that both me and Robert are so involved in everything they do...And I am overjoyed that they are getting to do so much that I couldn't do...I want and demand more for my kids (what a great motto for a mom!!!)

Summer Plans

SCHOOL IS OUT.

Gage has gone to Houston for the month of June...He is excited to start 6th grade this coming July. He has signed up to play the tuba in the band! We have had our ups and downs, but we are very content that he lives with us now!!! We have so much planned for when he comes home. Christian will be visiting again this summer. He will be down a shorter time, unfortunately. We have the boys signed up for a football camp. We have tickets for the circus again, but way better seats. We are planning to do the Aquarium, beach, AP Aquatic Center, and hopefully Funtrackers. We will SO be going to see Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince when it comes out July 15th.

Cami is doing good at gymnastics, no surprise there. She is soon to be moved up a level, at least that is the rumor from the teach. I signed her up for Kinder on the 3rd. She is apprehensive one day and super excited the next. I do have to say I am on that same roller coaster.

On to good ole me...I started up night classes at Del Mar on the 26th. I am overjoyed that I have started back on track with getting my degree...The plan is now to finish a Bachelors in English (to teach at HS level) and go onto get a Masters in Library Science...One day become a Librarian.

Robert is going to school also starting Monday...His company is paying for all of his schoolin... It comes with a new title and new challenges for him, which he is always lookin for. In the long run the position makes him more desirable by other oil companies. I am so PROUD of him!!!

I am looking forward to what the future holds for me and my family!!!
