Spring Break


Well it's going to be a "get-r-done" Spring Break for the Wright Clan...Todd took off 4 whole days to spend time with us..which is such a treat. While Todd takes the kids to do this and that I have been ridding out and organizing each room!! Oh how behind I have gotten! I must say it was very sad to clean out Sydney's room this time. We have or had two shelves in her hutch devoted to her "newborn" items such as sonogram pics, baby gifts, shoes, cups etc...I decided being that she is about to turn 7 that we should probably pack these things away...I didn't pack them ALL away though. She still has one shelf with some things I couldn't bare to put away until she makes me :)


After Church today I took Syd to Sweet and Sassy and she picked a sassy pink color for her nails. They put cute little flowers on her nails and she just loved it...they have already rubbed off however...hmmm I'll have to learn to do that flower painting myself! She also had a hair cut with their signature glitter! She loved it..and it was a fun afternoon for us..those are pretty rare these days. I can tell she craves those days where little Trevor isn't around and she gets Mom's full attention. We will have to work on that.

It's been a long time

Oh how I knew I would be that kind of blogger! The holidays came and went and now we are in March!! Today is Monday and we have spent a quiet day at home. I am trying to keep up with my studying while entertaining the kids. Trevor and Emilee have been playing outside A LOT!! Thank the Lord for this nice March weather! Sydney is about to get home from school..and then we are off for Cheerleading! I don't have anything exciting to Blog about today...i just wanted to Blog something..I will hopefully be back this week! Tomorrow is Dad's 59th birthday and we will be "partying" here! Got lots to do!

Thanksgiving



















I have already been terrible at blogging!! Shocker!!




Yesterday was Thanksgiving and we had a wonderful one!! We spent the day cooking and headed over to Traci's about 2:00 for dinner. So many good things to eat...and we got so full. The Cowboy's won which was a bonus!! Afterward's we did our first ornament exchange!! I made ornament scrapbooks for the 3 that I drew...Trac, Syd and Dad. Mom and Dad gave us our annual swarofski snowflake which is just beautiful!!



Today we put the tree up and it is beautiful! The entire house looks like we are moving...there are so many Christmas boxes scattered everywhere! I will slowly tackle all of it this weekend. Syd is at Aidan's playing and Trevor is asleep so it's nice and quiet.


This month..has been busy and I have a few pics from Spirit Celebration which was Sydney's second competition. Green Stars took First Place AGAIN!!!! YEEAA!! Syd also won the Spirit Stick..aka Most Valuable Cheerleader at practice!! GO SYD!!
Trevor had his precious hair all cut off :(....it will grow again.

Trevor has been sick most of the month...Friday ended with a second trip to the Dr. A third round of anitbiotics and a ruptured ear drum...poor baby.

A day of play....

Being that Todd was gone all weekend...we decided to just spend Sunday playing around and taking Ali Edwards challenge to photograph the day...all the details no one but us will care about but still worth recording. After all, these are the things we will remember. Like Trevor and how he drinks 6 cups of milk a day (Dr. I don't know why he won't eat???)



And then there's the Macaroni and Cheese he eats almost every day...(I can't believe I am one of those moms)!!!




I've also succumb to driving him around EVERYDAY so he will take a nap...Todd says his naps cost us $100 a month...small price for sanity..I must say.


Isn't he sweet though!!


Syd and him played all day and he even shared his food with me...or at least I tried...




Night Night!!!!

First Blog





















OK this is my new goal....blog our family life. I am so into scrapbooking and recording the everyday moments...however, unlike scrapbooking I hope to stay in the current year with blogging. YESTERDAY was HALLOWEEN!! We had a great time...Trevor and Sydney were Vampires!! We all went to Traci and John's to Trick or Treat with Emilee the Zebra! We ate pizza and hit the neighborhood at 6:00 sharp!! The kids had a blast! We then went by a friends house for a cocktail and Trevor fell asleep on my lap!! Worn out!




TODAY..Todd is at the Deer Lease for opening weekend....so...the kids and I attended Concordia's (a.k.a Trev's school's) Fall Festival. They loved the bouncy house and petting zoo! The lovely November heat won and we were out of there in an hour!!



























My first Blog



Ok this is a test...of the blogger challenged..I may even go crazy and add a picture!!


Today we had Trevor and Emilee's Fall Festival. We only lasted an hour in the lovely 80 degree Texas heat!! They loved the bouncy house and petting zoo...all the usual festival fun!! The kids and I had a great day post Halloween. Todd is at the deer lease with my parents so we are faring alone here!! We watched movies, played ball and ate pizza for the third night in a row! Mom of the Year Award goes to........
