The Bunch Have A FANTASTIC Week!!

 

It was a little warm in the sun, but at least it was behind us.

What a week we have had! At first, it was pretty slow going. T asked me if I wanted to go watch his girlfriend's softball game with him. I thought it was very sweet he invited me to go so of course I went with him! We had a nice time and met most of her family. Unfortunately, she ended up not playing! I guess she had been in the past few games so they used the other catcher. It was still fun and I learned more about softball. It is way different than baseball and I don't know a whole lot about baseball! 

The best and biggest news we got this week is that C and H are expecting!!! We are so excited! H tried her best to tell us in the most special way she could. In her version, she mailed us a package that we would all open together while on the phone with them and we could experience it together. The package told us to choose wisely and when we opened the box, it announced they were expecting and they had filled it with name tags for us to choose our grandparent names. We would laugh, cry, and have a beautiful moment together.

What really happened: It is a typical Saturday afternoon. T is off doing something with his friends. A had just left to go have lunch with her boyfriend. D is at work. I get a notification to expect my Amazon delivery within the next hour. I hear the doorbell go off and see my anxiously awaited package on the bench. I bring it inside and notice the return address is from Bonham, where C and H live. I almost contact C to see if he sent me something, but brush it off because the name on the return address is someone I have never heard of so it must just be my Amazon seller. I proceed to open the box and see "Important Step.....Choose wisely". At this point, I think my Amazon seller is scamming me. It takes me a couple of minutes to open the box...it turns out the flap is magnetic! Once I finally get the box open and see the good news and the plethora of name tags, I am so overwhelmed with excitement and happiness.....but no one was here! I quickly send out a mass text to my family, including C and H expressing my happiness and revealing I was a little upset I wasn't told in person! Apparently, UPS had told them the absolute quickest they could deliver the package was Monday. C figured he would call us after church on Sunday and give us a heads up it was coming and tell us to call them when we got it and to open it together. UPS had it here Saturday afternoon instead! Now, I wouldn't have opened it without contacting C first IF it had had their name on the return address....I still need to ask C why it wasn't their information on the return address. Either way it is very happy news and it's been a very long road for them. I am super happy for them! 

In case your curious 

WE PICKED GRAMS AND GRAMPS!!!

I was very confused at this point.

I was crazy excited at this point!!! I was texting everyone! Sorry about the misspellings and punctuation errors, I was super excited!😊

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...
