Christmas 2006 was a great time.  We spent the first half down in Sinton with Mom and Dad, Gramma and Grandpa, and Julie and Ken.  Enjoy this slide show.  You can see the pics as well in our gallery.

I walked in at midnight to check on Jayna and Jillian as I always do before I go to bed and found Jillian like this…

Her whole bed was SOAKED…especially her pillow (which we threw away). Dave took her to our bedroom where she decided to fully wake up and start talking. While [...]

Sunday afternoons are my favorite time with the girls. Not sure why…maybe it’s because we can be lazy and rest. Sunday’s are God’s Day…a day to rest…so we literally take that day to do NOTHING!
Yesterday was such a time. After everyone’s nap, the girls climbed in my lap for a snuggle and [...]

How funny is this?!?! Go dude go!
This guy looks like my friend Brandon.

I hate hosting garage sales. I hate the time you spend having to mark things…I have sorting through things…I just hate the whole process. I also hate people to go to garage sales to STEAL stuff, haggling with people over the CHEAP price you’ve already set so they can get the item for [...]

I saw a commercial on the Mr. Clean Magic Erasers…you know the ones where they show the stains and “magically” they’re erased. I’m always so skeptical because I’ve purchaed hundreds of products over the years that just don’t work. From the high dollar cleaners to the simple cleansers, it’s hard to find those that are [...]
