Turkey Day '08

We headed to Waco this year for our first Thanksgiving with the Crosslins in about 3 years. The boys, as usual, were thrilled to spend time with their favorite cousin Collin, and all the girls. They played so hard and crashed last night when we got home. It was a fantastic football weekend too, and we had a great time cheering for all our teams. The Bears almost did it...they've come a long way!!

The boys playing Mario Kart...again. I think they spent 90% of our time there doing that.

Cody being silly with his Papaw.

Soccer Party

Soccer is officially over for the fall season. We had our last game this past Saturday, followed by our team party. The boys all got trophies, which they were very proud of!! Coach also gave them nicknames based on their personalities. Cody was "muscle man" and Blake was "speed racer". We had lots of fun playing soccer and look forward to playing again in the spring!

In memory of Cameron Brown

This is a sad post, but I wanted to mention Cameron as a reminder for all of us mommies and daddies to hug our precious angels and be grateful for their health and happiness.
Cameron is the son of a girl I met on a mommy forum before the boys were born. He has a sister who is the boys' age. Cameron has been fighting childhood leukemia for 5 years, and sadly, lost his battle on Thursday night. He was 9 years old.
I can't even begin to imagine what Lori and her family are experiencing right now. How confusing it must be for 5 year old Samantha. Thinking of him makes it a little easier to listen to the whining and fighting. My boys are healthy and they are here with me.
Cherish every moment. Please pray for the Brown family.
