The Bunch Are Living Life

A and I keep busy during guitar lessons by shopping and exploring.

So far the fall semester has been great! Even though I decided to just teach T Geometry instead of subbing it out like I did for the girls, school hasn't been too bad and T is usually done by about 12:30 pm, which leaves us a lot of extra time for some fun stuff. T is really excited that pickleball is something that we all enjoy so he tries to get us to come play with him pretty much everyday. He and I even rented a court last week to practice on. We were the only ones there which was nice since our balls tend to "travel" over to the adjoining courts while we learn proper techniques for playing, i.e. we pretty much suck. 😂 

She was going to sit in it, but it turns out there is an upper weight limit 😂

We had the entire place to ourselves. We had a super fun time, though we are definitely ready for more fall like temps. It was hot!

T sets up a portable net in the driveway to entice us to play with him.🥰

A's work is having a pumpkin contest this week so she was busy making her pumpkin this weekend. They will leave them all out this week for the customers to vote on whose they like the best. A decided to make hers a candy apple. She got the idea from Pinterest. I think it turned out really cute. T and I are going to carve our pumpkins so we will wait until Halloween day to do that so the pumpkins won't go bad before I can cook them down. They will end up being Thanksgiving pies and pumpkin bread. Yummy!!

I think her candy apple turned out really cute 😁

 I still haven't decided where we are going to go for our next adventure. We have been busy doing some maintenance so that the RV will be ready to go. Rv's are like houses, something ALWAYS needs fixing!

 I can't believe this year is almost over!  We love the holidays and are looking forward to our normal traditions plus adding few extra this year. 

MiMi was very interested in GiGi.

MiMi loved having new people over to see her! Why else would GiGi be here? 😂

She crawled inside the towels right after I dropped them on the couch. Noelle loves warm laundry!

Actually they both love warm laundry. My little helpers💗.

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 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...

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...
