This guy right here was pretty livid that he had no choice in going to prom. The downsides of having a girlfriend is having to go in public dressed up!
Giselle looking beautiful! Ryan got away with minimal pictures, he got to eat at one of his favorite restaurants on dad's bill and didn't have to go to any after parties. Seems like it worked out alright to me!
Ryan's main beef was that NONE of his friends are going since it is Senior prom and he is a junior. Thankfully J.R. was part of his group, so that made it better.
Lucy and I supporting Alex from a distance for one of his UNT triathlon races.

I love, love, love this blanket. I bought more yarn so I can make more of these baby blankets.

I put out a challenge to have the youth watch conference and make a goal. If they sent me their goal, I'd bring them a plate of cookies. Only 3 boys took me up on it! (with a little nudging from their moms!)

Hanks of yarn have to be wound. Thankfully one of us has this crazy contraption!
Yes, I know I shouldn't take pics of students, but these guys are the best! I've enjoyed subbing regularly at their school. No, I don't want to do it full time (they've offered!) but I'm glad to be a part time adult whom they trust.
On a Friday night I called up a friend and said, "Mace and I are home alone. You wanna come build a puzzle with us?" And she said yes! We built this 1000 piece Lego minifig puzzle in a couple of hours. So fun!
We recently learned that Macey would prefer to babysit than referee!
It's easy when your pets do all the hard work.
For Alex's 20th we decided to go to Delucca Gaucho. It is a fancy pizza buffet where the waiters walk around with 14 different flavors for you to try. We were all so full that when the waiter brought Alex a slice of cheesecake for his birthday we all groaned!
MJ was the champion eater. She had 16 slices!! She thought the lamb was the best.
Uncle Mike back on the continent!
Pet sitting.
This are my pear trees in full bloom. The buds were burnt in a late freeze. Thankfully the leaves came in, but alas not very many flowers.
Sunset in the 'hood.
A throw for a friend.
Stock piling laser guns for sweet YW activities.
Concessions with the marching band moms was a lot of hard work. But there were cool fireworks at the end.
