This Past Weekend

This past weekend was something...
Friday
I went to lunch at "Chicken-Fil-A" with Hayden, Hailey and Daniel and their two kids, Taylor and Dylan, and Mindy and her two girls, Belle and Pia...We then went shopping endin up going to Academy and a few places in the mall...It was crowded but I was never really noticing cause we were in our lil group!!!
Saturday
Hailey with Taylor in tow, Mindy with Belle and Pia in tow, Kara with Jocie in tow, and me went and had Manis and Pedis...Kara and I both were Pedi Virgins...I definitely enjoyed it...Kara was a lil giggly...Afterwards we went to Just for Kix and I picked me up 2 pair of Yellow Box Flip Flops...I had to go home to pack for Austin...We had some really awesome Chinese food and hit the sack pretty early, because of Cami's Gymnastics Meet the next morning!!!
Sunday
I managed to get up on time, feed, and get Cami ready without going insane...Robert was a big help in packing while I had the fun task of doing Cami's hair for Competition...We got to the meet and it was pretty crowded, got Cami situated with her team...Cami did so good...8.8 on Vault...7.0 on Uneven Bars...8.85 on Beam...8.2 on Floor...I am so proud she got 3 Red Ribbons and 1 White Ribbon a big improvement from the mock meet...

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!!!

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!!!)
