Hurrication

Last week was....interesting and exhausting for sure!!! Our week started off with the 1st day of school for Ella Kate and for me.  Madness! I kind of feel like God has a way of making teachers forget the first few days of school so they will continue teaching.  You know, the way He allows you to forget childbirth once the baby arrives?  Monday was also the day that the workers came to install our new counter tops.  Nothing like a little home improvement project the first week of school!!! Anyway, we survived, and then our dear friend Isaac decided to make his appearance.  We knew we would miss school on Wednesday, but were not certain about the days after that.  We decided to load up and head to Jackson on Tuesday night.  We have some pretty large trees surrounding our house and I was freaking out a bit about the threat of tornadoes, so much rain/wind, etc.  Anyway, we ended up staying until Thursday afternoon.  Ella Kate had fun getting to spend some unexpected play time with Kay Kay and G.  J was able to visit with a few ministry friends, and we were all able to go play with Bill and Amanda Blair and their kids.  All in all, it was an awesome time to just be away from home!  School was back on for Friday.  We had planned to head to Starkville after school, but after driving back and forth to Jackson, we decided it was probably in the best interest of our kids to stay home.  Walker DOES NOT like the car seat AT ALL and cries and cries and cries unless we are driving at nap time.  Not fun! We did of course have to cheer on our Dawgs and wear some of our game day gear.  We had a little tailgate at the Parsons' house.  It was a fabulous time and we had such fun cheering on our Dawgs to a big victory!!!

This picture just makes me smile.  It is so our life these days.  Ella Kate is a ham!  She constantly has us laughing with the hysterical things she says.  And sweet brother man, he just hangs out.  Bless his sweet little heart.  He is so chill, which is a blessing for sure!!! I just love these two!!!
