A Quick Hello

4.19.13

This week has sure been a devastating one for the U.S. It's scary to think that tragedies like these can happen anywhere ... almost makes you not want to leave your house ... but then again we cannot live in fear. We have to trust in God even more that he will protect us and that crazies like these will get caught before they can do any more damage. The explosion in the small town of West near Waco, TX was awful. Did you see the amateur video? It was a huge explotion. Very scary.

We had a couple of sunny days. Riley and I went on our mid morning walk, he played outside for a bit and Jacob and Nathan even played catch football. Sydna also took Libby outside so she could get some sun and of course Libby wanted to lay on the grass.

Our trash didn't get picked up on Wednesday due to workers in another state being on strike so workers here exercised their right not to cross picket lines. That's just dumb!

Target stops are always fun especially at night. Sydna picked up a book and the little guy got to have a dump truck ... and I was comparing prices on certain kids toys.

Lately Riley has been hauling Mickey Mouse all around the house, into his crib and even in the truck. One day we were running late to pick up Sydna from school. We headed out the door and he realized he didn't have Mickey and kept saying "mouse mouse" over and over. So I had to come back in the house and get darn Mickey. He smiled when he saw Mickey and that made me forget about being in a rush and somewhat irritable.

Not much has gone on at home this week. We're almost all rid of our colds ... just a cough here and there. Thankful that our colds really didn't last that long.

Jacob really needs to mow and hopefully he will sometime this weekend.
And I seriously need to get a trim and layers. My hair is almost one length again and I dislike the way it looks when it gets like this.

And today is Ghost Adventures Friday! New episode and I  also have several reruns recorded that we haven't seen so it'll be another back to back Ghost Adventures kinda Friday. Very cool!

Hope you all have a great weekend! Blessings.
