Good Times with Good Friends

I love my best friends....My #1 best friend is my husband....but I also have 4 best friends who also call me "sister", bff's from childhood, those from college, and those I have met in recent years...A best friend is hard to find....I am lucky enough to have several best girlfriends who I can confide in, feel comfortable with in every way, who I can talk to for hours on end and don't even know a minute has past, and who most of all love me for who I am....I have been blessed beyond measure!

To make things even better, I have a best friend who moved in to my neighborhood a month ago. She lives one street over, has 3 amazing babies, and brings so much joy to my life! Here we are with ALL of our babies at the zoo....What a fun time in my life...I'm trying not to blink...I don't want it to be over!

Crazy, Crazy, and more Crazy!

These last two weeks have been nuts....With 4 of the boys playing baseball and 3 of the boys playing football, it seems like we never have a night without some kind of sporting event......and games haven't even started yet! I love it, and wouldn't have it any other way, but it sure does make our lives crazy, crazy, crazy BUSY!

Kate has officially given up her binky! We started taking it away during the day, and then a 4 days ago took it away at nighttime....she was not extremely happy with me..LOL!.... She has gone to bed the last two nights without any crying! I am so happy to be able to see her sweet smiling face ALL the time now!

Brian is still doing great in pre-school...I was afraid the excitement would wear off and he would go back to his old ways, but he hasn't shed a tear and is so excited to go to school every time!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I started a boot camp class on Wednesday.....I am going back tomorrow...It kicked my booty, to say the least! but as a friend keeps telling me...No Pain, No Gain!

College football season officially starts this Saturday!...I can hardly wait to be sitting in the stands! Boomer Sooner!

I'm a Sooner born and Sooner bred

First Day(s) of School

The 3 big boys ready for their first days of 4th grade, 2nd grade, and Kindergarten. Ready and smiling for a new year.

Brian on his first day of pre-school...He was a little less excited than his brothers, but did great. I've been a nervous wreck all summer waiting for school to start. He's a little lot bit of a mama's boy. Has a hard time being away from me...and tends to cry a little a lot when I leave him...but God put him in the hands of the perfect teachers, and he went in without a tear. I left in such relief that I couldn't keep the tears from flowing....Such a blessing to find teachers who love your kids the way you do!

Alex has a great hit, followed by a great steal!....

Almost 2!
