The Bunch Finish Birthday Week

The kids had to test ALL the furniture out, which was conveniently under all the shelves.

First off, Iris, the horse, has had no more issues this past week, though I did make extra sure to hose her down on the super hot days. I am really happy that this week will be nice and cool so I should be less busy checking on all the animals all day for heat exhaustion. We celebrated A's birthday the day before since she had to work on her birthday. She wanted to go shopping at Joann's for some crafting stuff she wanted and she also wanted to go check out the brand new At Home store that opened last week. We have been waiting for it to open and it did not disappoint. We also drove up to Gainesville to take A out to lunch on her actual birthday. She wanted to go to Schlotzkys again. I got the gluten free BBQ pizza which except for the crust still being cold from being frozen was better than last week's sandwich, but still not impressed. For the price, I would rather go to a regular restaurant. 

This week D, T, and I are heading out to my favorite camping spot for a couple of days. This time L has to stay back with A because of school. A is all kinds of excited about having company. She hates being alone. However, L is less than thrilled about how A is not only super excited about her staying home, but also about her being recruited to cook all of A's meals!😂 This should be interesting. 

Have a great week!

We get there early to put our order in so everything is ready when A gets there. The worst part for T is staring at his lunch for 5 minutes while we wait for A to get there.

A loves seeing her family in the middle of the day. And getting a free lunch!

My pizza looked good, but was cold still.

A loves the bacon ranch calzone. This is  her second time getting it.

She had a great birthday!

I can't believe she is 20!!!! Where does time go?!?

NoNo being her normal helpful self with laundry. At least she hasn't gotten in the dryer again!😂

The Bunch Are Off To A Wonderful 2025 And Are Considering A Change 🤔

It's official, she has a college diploma!! Besides totally enjoying a drama free year, we have been consciously spending time doing things as a family and spending time with each child doing things they enjoy. D has been playing ball and watching movies with his larger "mini me" while A and I have been spending a lot of time in Dallas going to the theatre. A absolutely loves going to see off Broadway productions! I won't be surprised in the slightest if she ends up getting season tickets. Dallas Broadway does a lottery to each show where if they draw your name you have 3 hours to buy tickets for $39 each including all fees! That is an absolute steal! She actually won the lottery on Tuesday so we went that night to see the production of "& Juliet". The seats she won were FANTASTIC! They don't give you cheap seats in the back for the lottery. You win good seats. The seats we ended up with worked out to be only about a quarter of the regular price! We h...

The Bunch Celebrate Christmas

  It's become tradition for T to wear a Santa hat on Christmas. Our Christmas was pretty low key. D was able to go in late so he was able to have Christmas with us before he went to work which was really nice. The kids and I packed up and moved Christmas brunch to C&H's house since he needs to stay close to home and we worried about the lack of emergency care both on the way to our house and while here. I made up a potato casserole ahead of time, brought stuff for garden scrambled eggs, and banana bread while H made a really good cranberry punch and some pigs in a blanket. I have to say for only 5 people we had a ton of food! In fact, T ate so much for brunch I don't think he really ate anything for the rest of the day. He also finished his very last hour of driving on his way back home! Driver's license here we come....next week! After the mess Axl made last time we left him in his crate, we reenforced the doors with zip ties. We also made sure to take him on a wal...

The Bunch Visit Family

  We had fun playing some board games...and it wasn't even a fun jar idea! We just did it because it sounded like fun! The fun jar has been a little slow being implemented this year. T made sure to let me know! We're making up for it next week by drawing several things.  We have had a wonderfully busy week visiting family and getting things done around the house. We went over to my parents house to celebrate Father's Day and while the boys played games with Grandpa, the girls went with Grandma to show her what all the fuss about Trader Joe's is about. She enjoyed looking at all the different things and even found a few gems of her own. It was a nice day and fun to get out together for a little bit. We had a great day!🥰 We picked up Whataburger for my Dad as a treat and my mom made some tots and a side salad up to go with it.💗 We also had a nice long visit with our Aunt P. She's been under the weather and we hadn't had a visit in a couple weeks so it was nice t...
