All because two people fell in love...

We met in February 1989, started dating in May, and got married in September. And Josh came *almost* 11 months later, just in case y'all were wondering. And then no more came. We waited, and waited, and then Lauren decided to make her debut in May 1995 (5 weeks early), and then Kayley 1997, Jacob 1998, Krissy 2001, Lindsey 2004 & Joey 2006. We lived in Texas until 2005, and then we moved to Arkansas, just about 25 miles north of Texarkana, Texas. Fortunately all my children are Texans (and my handsome husband) because Texans are just cool. Wish I was a Texan... but husband had to settle with a California gal, which I think is pretty cool too.

Don't ask

Yes, that is milk in my pan sitting outside for the dogs to lick. Yep, I know... so redneck. Don't have to be reminded! I told Shawn, who did it, that we didn't need to make our redneck status any more obvious. Why the milk in the pan outside, you ask? Because after returning home from Walmart with 3 gallons of milk, I asked kids to help bring in. Jacob brings it in, and basically throws it on the ground, thus breaking the jug in the plastic bag. Shawn quickly picked it up, transfered leftover milk in the jug to another jug, and put the split milk that was dumped into the pan, outside for the dogs.



And as of this morning, the last 2 kids who did not get sick last week, Lauren & Jacob, are now sick & throwing up. Only Shawn hasn't gotten sick, and he claims it's because he eats like 3-4 Yoplait yogurts a day. Jacob is bummed that he is sick because he started his Diabetes Day Camp yesterday. He goes in Texarkana, and yesterday he had a great time. He really loved it. They tied-dyed shirts yesterday, and he was going to wear it today. Hopefully he can return on Thursday. Last time Jacob got the stomach virus, he ended up at Children's @ LSU in Shreveport. I hope he doesn't get that bad. Sickness & diabetes do not mix well.
