MORE MUMS....

It's REAGAN'S HOMECOMING.

Hip hubby's sister's Lauren and Lindsey (in picture) both graduated from Reagan so they made Cody a mum for homecoming. It was so cute. I think I will have to take a lesson so that I can make our mums next year. 

Can you tell how excited he was to take yet another picture!

I was so excited for him to come home from school on Thursday. It was spirit day and all the kids trade mums with the person they are going to homecoming with. Cody got the cutest mum from Amanda.

This is the mum Amanda gave him....love it.

Lauren this is for you. Here is the picture of the mum that you and Lindsey made. o.k. really Lindsey made it, you were here in spirit! I  know it would be hard for you to make the mum all the way in New York City.

MUMS,MUMS,MUMS

It's official......HOMECOMING is HERE!!!

I picked up the mum we ordered for Cody's friend he is taking to homecoming.

It is sooooooo cute. I love it!!!! I think I was more excited than Cody was, but that's a boy thing.

How cute is this. It has the cheerleader on the mum because Amanda is in pep squad and the football player for Cody.

I just love how much ribbon it has on it. Cody took it to her this morning and I can't wait to see what she thought.....of course I will have to beat it out of Cody, cuz boys don't give you any info..

AND THE WINNER IS.......

REAGAN GALA

We went to the REAGAN gala on Friday night. The gala supports all of the sports clubs at the high school. 

We got a table with some of our friends. Here is Michelle and Chris.

My very sweet friend Val and her hubby Denny went with us. I am so excited that they went. Val lived in S.A. for awhile and then her hubby got transfered to Arizona. After missing SA so much her hubby got transfered back to SA in January....yea we are all so excited. Friday was a big day for them, they closed on a new home and made it official they are here to stay. I just love her and her family, our family's mesh so well. 

Earlier in the week, I found out that the gala theme was "go green." and the dress was casual, which meant wear you fav Reagan attire. I was excited now I can take back the outfit that I bought. I went out to find some cute leopard shoes to wear with jeans and a t-shirt. I went to DSW wear house since they just opened a new one by my house. I'm looking, and looking and looking and I turn the corner and see this bright, grass green shoes they are the perfect Reagan green color....so I had to have them. Thank goodness they were on sale ( I guess no one really buys grass green shoes) so I got them for $14.00 yea,,,,I thought what a bargain. I will probably never wear them again, so I don't feel too guilty since they were only $14.00. 

Me and hip hubby! I wore my bling,bling shirt and if you look closely you can see the cute Reagan necklace that I made. 

My mom and dad came over to watch the kids for us and hubby let her know that we were not going to bid on anything that we did not need. So , my mom and I are still laughing at the fact the hubby had to get the batboy for Connor in the silent auction and in the live auction hip hubby got carried away on bidding on the football boy for one of our big high school games for Kyle.  SO after hip hubby spent $$$$ my mom and I have not stopped teasing him......

One year ago.....

It was one year ago, from Tuesday, October 7th. Hip hubby and I were with Connor  and Kyle in Austin at a (you guessed it) baseball game.  Cody decided to stay with my mom so that he could go with his friends to the high school football game. Cody and his friends were so excited, they painted their faces with green and black for the game. My mom called me that Saturday night and said that Cody was not feeling good but he still wanted to go to the game. She called me about an hour later and they were at the game and she said that Cody felt like he was going to get sick. I quickly said "get him out of there, cuz I don't want him to get sick in front of his friend". If that happened he would forever be know as the "kid that barfed at the high school football game".

So, I get a frantic phone call from my  mom at 7 a.m on Sunday morning saying that Cody is feeling so bad that he wants her to take him to the hospital. I talk to Cody and I can tell by his voice that he was serious. So my mom takes him to the hospital and I get in the car to drive home. Hip hubby and the boyz stay in Austin. I get a call from my mom and she tells me that the Dr. thinks it's his appendix. So, I step on it putting the petal to the metal and I can clearly remember being flipped off by a truck with 3 men in it who had been hunting. They all had on their hunting attire. So, I proceed to slow down a bit.....calling my mom every 2 seconds.....I think I made it to the hospital in record time. The doc says that he wants to run some more test......so, 6 hours later.....we are still waiting....Cody at this point is cracking me up, cuz he is on morphine. Hip hubby at this point had borrowed some friends car and was driving back home. So after waiting about 7-8 hours the doc finally says "YES" he is having an emergency appendectomy. Now, I start to FREAK OUT.....where is hip hubby, all Cody wanted now was his dad. So after another hour of waiting for the operating room, hip hubby arrives. By this point I was so made because the poor kid had been in pain all day. The staff at the hospital assures me that everything is going to be a.o.k. Of course, Cody had to be sick on a SUNDAY, when the hospital operates at 1/2 staff and that is what took soooooo long to get an operating room. By this time, I just wanted to lick Cody's I.V. of morphine, so I could feel no pain.  The surgery went great. By 11 p.m. we were in a room. Of course, they did not have any private-room's, even Hip Hubby was trying to bribe someone for a private room. It just was not going to happen. The only saving grace was that I was tired I could have cared less about sleeping on a fold out chair that makes into a bed, and I use the word" bed" loosely.  Monday morning we got our first visitor Michelle at michellesloosewheel her mom was in the same hospital and she stopped by to visit.  Then the boyz showed up. They had been calling all day and both of them had be crying, cuz they were so worried about Cody. They were so sweet. 

Cody was the best patient. He had a revolving door of visitors. I think the nurses came in several times and had to ask people to leave, so he could rest. So all is well and Cody recovered. The funny thing about this story is I got the mail yesterday (one year ago to the day of the surgery) and there was a refund check from the hospital. I guess with us and our insurance we had over payed. Wow, hospitals are slow on refunds......

Queen of Bling

I made another one!!!! I got so many emails asking for another Queen of Everything necklace, so I finally got another one made. I just posted it on my etsy store.

This one has the crown with a clear heart and a peace sign charm. Way too cute!!
