Friday, May 15th.....Everyone took a day off and we headed to the Dallas Zoo. It was great. The kids really enjoyed getting to skip school and Denim thought the animals were amazing. She had been to the zoo before, but she probably doesn't remember it. She will this time though.
Later that night Caitlyn and her friends were in a talent show at the High School. They had practiced for a couple of weeks. It was really cute, even though Caitlyn got a little stage-fright and kinda lost her pizzazz. She complained the rest of the night about not feeling good. So that might of had something to do with it. I also added a picture of my cousin's daughter Victoria. She sang during the talent show and did a terrific job. 
Friday, May 22nd....Caddo Mills Elementary Field Day. All the grades Pre-k thru 5th got to compete in different events raging from the Turtle Hurdles to 400 Meter Run and softball throw to tug-a-war. Our two, plus all of our neices and nephews, cousins and friends were involved. It was a fun time.
May 22nd-25th....We spent Memorial Day Weekend at Chad's grandmother's house at Lake Tawakoni with most of his family and my cousins Wesley and April and their children. Some other friends came over from other areas of the lake. We had a few boats and Cindy's Sea -Doo. The kids had a ball and the adults did too. It was really nice to get away and take a break from Caddo and ballgames. Just what we all needed. Don't miss the beautiful picture of our adorable niece McKenna.
Wednesday, May 27th......Happy Birthday!! Where did the time go? We hadn't planned a party for Dalton yet, because he can't decided what he wants to do. So, on his birthday we went over to Shananigan's. We ate at Rozie's Grill, rode go carts, played laser tag, bowled, and then we all played games for a while. It was a fun, fun, fun family night. Unfortunately, I ran off without my camera. So, no pictures. We are planning on having some kind of celebration next weekend, I will let everyone know. Again, HAPPY BIRTHDAY DALTON!!! Hope you had a great day. WE LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Saturday, May 30th.....Motorcycle ride. Well yesterday we went on a very long ride. There were 34 people on 19 bikes. To name a few people who went: my parents, Chad's mom and Frank, my brother, our friends from church, and a few couples from town. We rode out thru Commerce to Sulphur Springs, to Yantis, to Alba and Grand Saline, and then to our final destination Edom. In this small town there is a great little stop for dinner called The Shed. We had a nice meal and a short trip home thru Canton and Quinlan. You know... you can't really ride very much longer after you get your belly full. I again, didn't take a camera, but if I can get my mother-in-law to email me a few; I will try to get some posted.
Sunday, May 31.....Jesse Duplantis. Today was the big kick off for our new Sanctuary. Bro. Jesse had told my dad a while back that when we got ready for this service, he wanted to be a part... And so, he was. It was an amazing service about Vision and Dreams and losing the past. It really hit hard for Chad and I. LIFE CHANGING!!!!!!!!!!! After service, we all headed to the ranch to annoint and/or bless the property. As a church family, the devil hit us hard financially, but it didn't stop the Vision. When you get hit, you don't stop, you just press harder and get through. VICTORY!!!! 
Well, I hope it wasn't too long. Sorry. I will post sooner next time. Especially since I will soon have alot more time.. SCHOOL ALMOST OUT FOR SUMMER!!!!!!!!!!!!! I only have 31/2 days with kids and two 1/2 days to get my classroom in order and then I'm outa there.
