Bball, gym, Mommy/son Dance, Galentines, Valentines, Living Museum, Daddy/Daughter Dance, Aunt Jeanne, God is Good
There is absolutely no way I’d make it through the trial we’re having right now without my incredible support system, which is first and foremost God, Adam, my family, and my incredible friends. I thought I was okay and could handle the panic attacks, anxiety, and depression I was experiencing. I would get through it…

First Gymnastics Meet and Brooks and Ellis Baptism
This post is going to be much shorter than my previous ones, but this weekend deserves a post all of its own! The enemy tried to ruin and get in our way this weekend, but our God is WAY too good! Memaw, Papa Joe, and Aunt Jeanne drove up to McKinney from Houston and almost…

Universal Studios
I finally figured out how to link this AWESOME video Gavin made for Brooks to surprise him with Universal on his birthday! To give you a little back story… Ellis has been asking to go back to Disney World, but since we’ve already been and we’ve also been listening to the Harry Potter stories, I…

Christmas and New Years
Now that I covered almost the whole month of December, it’s time to dive into Christmas, New Years, and the rest of the Holiday break… Ellis helped with the very last day of the advent puzzle! All done! Isn’t she pretty?!? Christmas Eve candlelight service where we all get to go to “big” church together…

Family Pics 2023
For our fall pics this year we decided to change up our usual woods and nature scenes for our super adorable downtown McKinney Square! Our downtown area has the sweetest small town feel and they decorate it so cute for the holidays! So many fun little side streets and buildings! I just love McKinney, but…

Family Lake Trip, Friendsgiving, Lake with Arguijo’s, Thanksgiving in Houston
Had a rare open weekend with no plans, so of course we head straight to the lake any time that happens! Finally got to hike to the dam… Walking sticks are a must for boys anytime you hike! Made it to the dam, which was a little underwhelming, not gonna lie. The cliff views in…

Field Trips, Football Game, Cheer, and Papa Joe Pacemaker
Brooks, Ellis, and Shep all somehow ended up with field trips within less than a week of each other, and I was miraculously picked to chaperone all three of them! First up was Brooks’ field trip to Camp Elks in Pottsboro, TX near Lake Texoma (the lake that borders Texas and Oklahoma). The kid and…

Halloween and Harry Potter Forbidden Forest
I’m loving these family themed Halloween costumes we’ve done for the past two years! Ellis started it with wanting to be Hermione Granger, and then convinced her brothers to be Ron Weasley and Harry Potter! I helped organized our first annual Halloween gathering for our awesome neighborhood! It was chaos trying to get their by…

WWE, Shep Turns 8, and Tooth Fairy
Shep and Brooks are now completely obsessed with wrestling (thanks to Hunter and Connor). They record and never miss an episode of WWE Monday Night Raw or Friday Night Smackdown! When we found out WWE was coming to Dallas 5 days before Shep’s birthday, of course we had to buy them tickets. Joe’s brother’s brother…
