Happy Birthday Kennedy!!!

We just got home from Chuck E Cheese. My niece Kennedy is turning 8 this year and we had her party there tonight. She is sooo tall its hard not to think she is older than that. I even had to call my brother and double check. Happy Birthday Kennedy, We love you! Kennedy was born 10 days before our nephew Colt, so his birthday is on the 15th and our little Denim will turn 3 on the 22nd. For a year now she has been wanting to go to Chuck E Cheese for her birthday, but tonight she was so scared of him; I think she might change her mind. She fell asleep on the way home and when I put her in the bed she was saying, "I don't want to play here, I don't want to play here." and then a little later I heard her say, "No Chuck E Cheese." I really don't know that I want to let her go back for awhile, so I might try to change her mind to something else. I will have to think about it.

I know it has been quite a while since I have posted. We have been back in school for a month now and I still have settled in yet. Probably because we have been attacked from all angles lately. Dalton had a black eye, Caitlyn broke a bone in her hand, Dalton, Denim, and I have been battling sickness, and Chad got slapped with 2 fines and court costs for having a cat outside. Good news is....... we have finally decided that it STOPS NOW!!!!!! We have shut that open door and everything has to line up according to the word of GOD. He perfects that which concerns us!!

I missed out on posting our Labor Day weekend fun, so I wanted to catch you up. On Friday (4th) we headed to the coast for the weekend with my cousins Wesley, April, and their kids Logan and Victoria. We stayed in Kemah at what I would say.. a luxury RV Resort on the bay. We had gorgeous weather the whole time. Friday night, after a nice supper at Joe's Crab Shack on the Kemah Boardwalk, we headed to the Galveston Seawall and walked along the beach and chased crabs. On Saturday we decided to hang out at the Boardwalk for awhile. It is really neat. It remind me of the movies when they show Coney Island. A huge amusement park on the bay and tons of restaurants. We got to ride an awesome speed boat that sat close to 40 people. It was fast, wet, and fun. We spent the rest of the day at the beach. Then on Sunday we returned to the beach with food and stuff to spend the day. We met up with my friend Jodie Brookshire and another family and let all the kids play on the beach together. Of course, we did fit in riding family bicycles, the ferry, and buying souvenirs. We had sooooo much fun. I would go again in a heartbeat.

Monday morning we headed out at 5:30 so that we could be back at my Mom and Dad's by 11:00. We had some family friends over. Dennis and Vicki Burke, their daughter and son-in-law, Jessica and Isaiah, and the grandbabies Jude and Rhema were all there all day playing, talking, eating, swimming, and 4-wheeling. I would say that everyone really had a blast.

As I am sitting here typing, Denim is singing Rain, Rain, Go Away. I am getting a little bored with the rain, but I am sure enjoying the cooler weather. It makes me ready for Fall, The Holidays, and then Spring Break. You'll notice I changed the slide show to ski trip pictures. We are planning our Spring Break trip and I am getting a little excited.

Love you all.
