A Few New Things & Friday Night With Friends

My sweet friend, Jill got me this cute little green owl.  It is really a garden owl, but I just couldn't put him outside!  He's too cute :)
 
A local gift shop started selling these t-shirts a couple of months ago but were sold out when I went to get one, so I ordered one.  They called this week and said it was here!  I've never been a pink person, but I love this neon pink.   Makena asked me what Sugar Town was so I had to explain to her that if you take all the t's out of Stuttgart, it spells sugar.  People have called it Sugar Town for years!
 
The girls have been begging me all week to let friends come over, and despite me trying to find an excuse for this not to happen, I could think of nothing.  I mean, they did have all A's on their report cards and they haven't been in too much trouble, so I was stuck!  It's not that I mind them having people over, it's just that it's such a hassle trying to get things "company" ready and I don't have room in my car to carry all these people home!  Well, of course it worked out fine.  Carl has been getting off early, due to the fact that they can't be in the fields planting their crops (pray for an end to the rain!), so he was able to get Trey so I had room for 4 girls in my car!  That's right, 4 girls!  They had a blast and I thought that Trey would stay out of their  way and hang out with Carl, but no, he wanted to be right in the middle of them! 
All five of them.  Can you see where T is?!  In the basket on the 4wheeler with Makena and Oriah!

This is one of Makena's best friends, Oriah.  She is Mexican.  I don't know how to say this and just know that I don't mean anything bad by this, but Makena has always been fascinated with Mexicans!  It started when she was little with Dora and Diego!  When we were at the lake over the summer she hung out with a little Mexican girl the whole time we were there!  And this year, Oriah started going to our school.  I don't know what it is!!  Oriah is very sweet and very quiet.  I hardly knew she was here.
 
It has been a busy and fun week!  Did I mention that we only have 6 more weeks of school?!  :)

Three Doses of Happiness

Laundry piled up, dishes in the sink, phone buzzing with many emails, toys all over the house.......sounds like an absolute perfect time to go outside and relax with my kiddos! Today has been a VERY warm day.  It probably would be more enjoyable if we didn't know that it would more than likely storm tonight!  Carlie didn't go to school today because she was up a lot last night with stomach issues.  She never vomited, but she was very nauseated and has had stomach cramps.  She hasn't felt bad all day, just off and one.  We might be going to the doctor tomorrow p.m. because Sunday night I noticed that she has a little bulge above her belly button, I wasn't concerned about it (really) until her stomach started hurting and she said that it hurt to tough.  Maybe it's nothing, but people keep mentioning hernia to me.  Please pray that she feels better soon.  Also tomorrow is the big day....academic advising.  I remember the very first time I was advised (somewhere a
