HAPPY FATHER'S DAY

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY to all the dads in our life. We love you all and hope you had a great day.


Thanks for all you do for us:)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DUSTY!

Yesterday was Dusty's birthday and I feel horrible but we didn't take any pictures (what was I thinking?). But, I just wanted to wish him a happy birthday and let him know how much we all love him. Happy Birthday!

Bree Update

There has been so much happening with Jack, I thought I'd better give an update on Breelle. She is sure becoming a little adult!! Her favorite thing to say lately is "actually." So, when asked to do something, her reply is "actually, I have to take a nap first!" She is TOO smart for her own good.
There hasn't been much going on around here. We've really become homebodies!! Real boring, I know. But, she does love playing with her friends and going to grandmas house.

Jack's Last Soccer Game...

Jack had his last soccer game on Saturday. His team was The Chargers and I think they had a great season. Jack seemed to enjoy himself a lot. I think he liked that all his neighborhood friends were on his team! Dusty even got to coach (agianst his better judgement!), and I think he did a great job. Way to go Jack! Now comes T-Ball...

Last Day of School...

Friday was Jack's last day of school - so of course we had to capture it on film (and, he wore that shirt on his first day of school - he hasn't grown too much). :) It has been quite the struggle this year for Jack. He hasn't really enjoyed school that much - and he HATES taking about school. When we try to ask him things, he just says he doesn't know. I hope this wears off next year!! But, towards the end he got better as he made some great friends. And, he does seem excited for 1st grade.

So, CONGRATULATIONS JACK on your first year of school!

We love you!

Jackson's Concert

Friday was Jackson's Dance Concert at Meadow. He was so funny. Even though he has a hard time at school (learning is NOT his favorite thing to do...), he sure has rhythm! I thought the Kindergarten class did a great job. They danced to Tarzan (as you can see the monkeys on their heads). He had a lot of fun and did a great job.
And, on a side note, Dusty was gone all last week - what an adventure that was! We did okay, but he's never been gone for that long! We are sure glad to have him home.

And the Winner is...

First of all, last night was such a difficult night for me. Dusty has been out of town since Sunday, and things have been a bit crazy. Last night I was supposed to go the AF Band Banquet, but I chose not to. My heart has broken this past week by people I didn't think possible, so I decided to stay home. It was a hard decision since this would be my last banquet, but I felt I had to do it. And though I know I need to forgive and forget, that is easier said than done. I am just a very trusting, emotional person. So I take things very personal. I know that I must move on and make things right because this is effecting my entire family. And I also know that maybe I should have done things differently or maybe not put my heart out there to get hurt. But, things are done now and we must move on. I am sure this is another learning experience for me!

On a much happier note, I am SO glad I stayed home to watch American Idol. Dusty and I started watching American Idol on season 3 (and of course I am much more into it than he is). This year I have really gotten into it - more than ever. I thought that most of the singers were very good, but of course my favorite was David Cook. I just thought he was unique and had a very personal style.
Well, I didn't think he would win because David Archuleta was also very good and had a lot of fans. So, when the announced his name at the end I was so surprised - but SO happy for him.
So, I know I am a complete dork - but I guess we all have those guilty pleasures, huh! This just happens to be mine:) And, even after having a bad day, it made me smile at the end... Hurray!!
