Good Friends, Good Food, Good Times:)

Thursday night found us at one of my new favorites - Joe T. Garcia's. Yes, I know it's been around forever, but I just discovered it this year. See, I'm a Dallas girl, and never knew about this famous place in Fort Worth until I got here. I've been dying to try it ever since. This was my second time to go, and was a blast with all our old home group friends. Glad we did this guys!

John's B-Day Party at Del Frisco's - YUM!

So I've heard about this restaurant before but had never been there until John's ( my bro-in-law) birthday! We headed down to North Dallas to eat at Del Frisco's and I must say it was delicious!!! We suprised John for his 30th, (although I think he had a slight idea what was going on:) All in all, it was a great night full of family and good food - and I do mean FULL:)

Happy Birthday John John!

Beautiful Birthday Boy!

October 16th was Curtis's birthday! Isn't he such a precious man?! I can't say it enough! He is a wonderful husband, father and friend. My hubby truly has a heart full of compassion and kindness. I am so thankful first of all to God, for creating him to be the man he is today, and second of all to his parents, David and Susan - ya'll raised him right!!! Curtis really is the kindest, sweetest man I've ever met and I am so thankful he is my husband! Happy birthday love!

Wonderful Wednesday - Thank You Lord for Good Self Esteem!:)

Kinsley walked into Kaden's school, all the way to his classroom, with kids in there long lines, pointing and laughing at her because she was adamant about wearing this to drop him off! It was a battle I did not feel like fighting this morning, so I let her wear this get up in all it's glory! Thanks Lord for her good self-esteem! I pray she keeps it forever:)

At this very moment - this is what we're doing!

GO OU!

Here's what we are doing this very moment and...for the next couple of hours:)

Fabulous Friday Continued - School Movie Night

We are so happy with Kaden's school this year! It truly has been a blessing to send him to the very school I taught at when I was pregnant with him. They have so much going on for the kiddos, parents, and community around us! Last night they had a Family Movie Night, outside, under the stars. We were able to purchase hotdogs, nachos, popcorn, candy and drinks and watch Charlotte's Web. It was a blast! And the weather was just beautiful. The kids were grinning ear to ear and so excited we were actually watching a movie outside:)

Fabulous Fridays - Pumpkin Patch 2008

This is our first edition of "Fabulous Fridays" and we had a very fabulous day today. We went for our annual trip to the Flowermound Pumpkin Patch! We go here every year because it is so much fun but even better - the pic opportunities are priceless! Here are my cuties enjoying the beautiful day!
