Strange thing is I haven't seen a guy in a cowboy hat or boots since I have been here! I would love to see a couple of cowboys. I'll let you know if any cross my path.
I have no pictures tonight - sorry Heather! For those who read the blog, today was a slow day. We hung out at the house and took only one excursion to Chick Fil-a for lunch and then to Target to get a bed skirt for Sophia's bed.
The kids watched Spiderman (again) and loved it (again). This evening was the first night that Sophia was to bed by 8:00PM and the boys by 9:30PM which should have been 9:00PM. Sophia, the little pill that she can be, took 2.5 hours to finally settle down and go to sleep. I made the mistake of letting her sleep with me for the last five nights. So, since I messed up the routine, tonight I paid the price of a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG tucking in ritual. Even though it is 12:15AM right now, I will be waking all 4 kids up at 8:00AM to begin recapturing the structure that will be needed during school days. I think I will have some cranky kids in the morning, but I can't prolong the inevitible!
Oh, yes, I'll be a little cranky too. I'll be making chocolate chip muffins for brekky just so the smell will at least encourage the little ones. I'll throw a yummy egg and cheese omelette in to balance out the sugar!
Have a fabulous day! For all those Cali friends and fam out there, WE MISS YOU!!!!

There are cowboys around (and I'm not talking about the Dallas Cowboys)... I think they are a little west and north of you... keep your eyes posted. They like to hang out at Starbucks with their spurs on... I'm not kidding.
As a local, I recommend Lake Ray Roberts:http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/spdest/findadest/parks/ray_roberts_lake/ It is not too far from you (going the back way) and MUCH better than Lewisville. Lake Lewisville is too crowded and they have a lot of accidents there every year. Ray Roberts is much cleaner, nicer and "family friendly." However, since all of the flooding we had a couple of months ago, most of the boat ramps and parks are closed at all of our lakes b/c they are still under water.
Glad you are settling in to Texas. Ah the joys of early morning school routines!
I miss you too Deana! Everyone!!! I know it has been hard adjusting to the time change and life, but it sounds like you are heading in the right direction.
That's cool that you have Kim to give you "inside information" - sweet!
I am a little (LOT) jealous about the whole brekky thing. Dang.
Oh, and I beat Heather, Liz, AND Allie!

Chocolate chip muffins! I LOVE those! You're making me hungry and I just finished a Starbucks scone.
Good luck getting up this morning. I hated those "back to school" mornings - depressing!
I'm telling ya, you have to visit the Cowboy Church (although that's probably a drive - I heard you saw it off the freeway)! You'll definitely see some cowboys - they take their horses to church. :-)
