The Bunch Move C and H

A is completely loving her two weeks of free time.

Pretty much all of this past week was spent helping C and H move from their house in Carrollton to their new house in Bonham. We all worked really hard and after two full days of helping, and sweating profusely, I am happy to say that they are all moved. Their new house is almost 1000 sq ft smaller so they did A LOT of downsizing. Their new house is a new build and super cute. They still have a lot of unpacking to do, but our part is all over as of today. We will be spending the next day recovering. Moving gets harder as you get older. C did two extra days of moving by himself and I have no idea how he is still standing! I am just exhausted and greatly looking forward to putting my feet up and watching Murdoch Mysteries ( thanks Aunt Pat for sharing).

We did manage to get about an inch of rain this week. Unfortunately, it did not really make dent in the drought, but it was very appreciated.

Unfortunately, the storm knocked our power out for three hours. We just made up games to keep us entertained. It did get a bit stuffy though without any air circulation.

T made the 14u A team for basketball this season and is very excited to be playing with larger boys, though he is still the tallest, but at least it isn't by a lot. We also started back to school this week. This is L's last year in high school and T's first. My babies are all growing up. L is super excited that her best friend is having her 16th birthday at Great Wolf Lodge this week. They are going to have so much fun watching movies, playing the wand game ( a wand opens drawers and helps you find clues to solve a mystery) and playing at the water park. Other than helping her brother move, A is taking complete advantage of her time off before school and work start in a week. She is spending her time napping and reading. I raised a 65 year old.

Have a great week everyone! I will hopefully have a more interesting week this week and have more to talk about next week.

The Bunch Start Birthday Week

Yes, my Mom had my name misspelled on the cake.😂 It was still yummy so it was all good. T, A, and I all have our birthdays within a week and a half. Which means there is a crazy amount of sugar within those 10 days. We always like to make whoever's birthday it is feel special for the day. We watch what they want,do activities they like, eat what they pick, do their chores for them, etc. It not usually too expensive, but just a fun day where it's focused on them. The kids use to use their days to rule like little kings and queens, but have become a lot calmer in their "old" age since they get to do whatever they want most of the time anyways. We are a pretty close family and do a lot of things together all the time anyways, but on birthdays we still make sure we defer to the birthday boy/girl. My birthday is first and the kids do so many nice things for me all the time, but they put forth an extra effort on my birthday. This year A even woke up early to turn the cof...

The Bunch Are Ready For Fall To Come Back

A and I at our favorite venue. We LOVE Bass Hall. I must admit that we are pretty tired of the crazy hot weather. We are ready to go back to the temps we had at the beginning of September. We played pickleball again this week, but D had required overtime to work so just T, A, and I went. We played singles and winner played the next person or A and I played together against T. We ended up in full sun and the humidity was a killer. We are happy that the cold front is coming through this week and the mornings should be in the 60s or low 70s with low humidity. It should be super nice to play in. T won every game we played, but A and I together definitely made him work harder! We still had a lot fun. We decided against our usual post game Braums. We all were hot and really just wanted to get home to the a/c. A won the lottery for tickets at Bass Hall to see the Life of Pi. We were up in the upper gallery, but that might have been beneficial for this show. The animal puppet...

The Bunch's Streak Of Bad Luck Continues

We made great time on the way there! It's amazing how leaving only 30 minutes later can help immensely with traffic. I wish all the shows started at 8 instead of 7:30. What a week this was! We went to Bass Hall to see Back to the Future. It was ok. Definitely not the best play we have seen. The boys went with us and since the last two shows they joined us for were The Outsiders, which is one of, if not our most, favorite show ever, and A Christmas Story, which is in probably in the top 6, they were really not impressed. However, we still had a nice time doing something different together. We love Bass Hall❤️ We had opening night tickets and got a GREAT deal! I went in this week and had my polyps removed plus they did a biopsy. I was more sore and for longer than I anticipated. Yes, the doctor said recovery was about 10 days, but I really only anticipated maybe 3-4. Boy, was I wrong! It's been 7 days now and by 10 I think I will be completely back to normal. Unfortunately, sh...
