The Bunch Celebrate T's Graduation With Family

 


T sent off several extra invitations to his Graduation cookout to several businesses. Apparently, A informed him that recent grads are doing that and some companies send them free things. He probably sent out 13 or so to different companies. I was really worried that people would just show up to our cookout but fortunately that didn't happen. He has had 2 companies send him some graduation stuff. One was a Christian publishing company and the other was the Mavericks. I didn't think anyone would send him anything so kudos to them for going the extra mile. I ended up setting out 10# of thighs instead of breasts to grill so I had to go get 10# of breasts. We had 20# of chicken and 16 hot dogs for 9 people! I was worried that the rain would cause problems with grilling, but we just pushed everything back an hour and it worked out....though I am not doing anymore grilling for awhile. That took Forever! We also got to find out the gender of Grandbaby Blob! It was a great day with everyone.

It was such a pretty cake...and so yummy! This lady really makes one the best cakes I have ever had!

It's a boy!!!! Wesley John💙🩵

Grandpa is doing so well! The outing and 2 hours in the car really wore him out, but he didn't even really use his cane while he was here! Axl made him pet him.  

Axl had to be in the middle of everything. We locked up the cats, but there's nothing we can really do with Axl. If we lock him up in the bedroom he'll destroy the door, the flooring, or both depending on his mood. He is super calm around people but his size is a little intimidating. My mom said he's kind of scary, which he is if you aren't use to gigantic dogs. His worst habit is trying to bully people into petting him. He's pushy!!

It was a nice day!

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...
