Another Day in Texas

This is the view from our front window! We look directly at the park. Good thing the kiddos have already been taught to ask for things only once, or I'd be hearing, "I want to go to the park" over and over and over! They ask once a day. I haven't been able to take them yet, but I plan to get out of the house a little tomorrow.

The kiddos have been so helpul in unpacking boxes and carrying their things upstairs that we just had to take many breaks throughout the day for some serious fun! Here are some pics of our bubble wrap party!!! Crazy kids and a crazy/mama/aunt!!!! These are the tiny little moments in a day that make all the work worth it!

The house is almost set up, and I will post pics soon. I miss all of my friends and the few family members left in Cali, but I have to admit that I really like this area of Texas. We shall see how comfy I become here.

Tonight, I must admit, Zack said out of the blue, "I want Auntie Gina come here"!!!! I was like, "Little dude, I'm here." He said, "I want Mama AND Auntie Gina to play with me." I was like OMW - he sincerely misses his Auntie! Don't tell her or she'll get a big head!

Josh and Ken have been angels and are loving Texas as well. They are AWESOME kids, and all five kids including my niece Kaylie are inseparable!!!

God is so good to surround us with people we love even if sometimes it is by internet or phone! Well, it is 1:00AM here so I better get some shut eye before I get up for another day of unpacking!

Please comment! I miss you all!

Gina Marie said...

My head IS bigger but you wouldn't notice because I have so many tears in my eyes! I miss Zack so much!!! I miss ALL the kids! But I will be visiting in just a few weeks!

Miss you too Deana - it isn't the same here without you and Stepha!

Gina Marie said...

Oh, and Heather, what are you doing up before 10????? LOL

Elizabeth B said...

Heather & Gina - Early girls!! Crazy! Besides, I had to get to work. Just you wait until next time!

Cute pics! I love bubble parties! Maybe when they put their swimsuits on next time you can have them run through the hose, just so they have a good reason. :-)

Have fun at the park - they'll love it. Can't wait to see more pics of the house. How is the furniture fitting?

Personally I like Sofia’s crazy hair, it’s a nice change. The bubble wrap party looks like a blast. It’s moments like that that make wonderful memories.

I so wish I was there to help you. If it was earlier in the summer I would send Allie to help you with the unpacking and the kiddos (she like that sort of thing), but alas she starts school soon and has registration next week.

I miss you so much – life here at the credit union is way too quiet now that you’re gone (oh my, sounds like a country western song).

Oh Deana, Deana, Deana - it is definately not the same around here with out you. U were the life of our row! Can't wait to see pics of the house!
btw - I always read your blog, I was just too lazy to sign up to leave a message! :-)

Deana - I've been reading here a while now and I thought I had who's who down. I'm so wrong. Who does Josh & Kenny belong to? I thought that they were Gina's kids. I'm wrong - huh? Imagine my confusion when I saw Josh in a Texas picture.

Congrats on your move! The kids look very happy! And I do like to see Sophia's crazy hair - it is a nice change for her!

anita said...

DeanaMarie said...

Woe, Wanda, be nice to Heather! :) I know she and Stepha would be out late if she were here! LOL

Debbie, Josh and Kenny are Gina's kids. They are in Texas with me for a time while she finishes up her degree in CA. Blanks to be filled in at a future date.

Debbie said...

Okay. Good to know that I am not crazy! :-)

Gina Marie said...

Debbie - I am flattered that you know who is who! The internet is amazing!
