A Quick Look...

I am going to try to do a quick look at our weekend and a few of my favorite things about the house right now.  I have to say I have been one happy mommy/wife now that the computer is working! 

Brady woke up Friday morning at his normal 7:00, but screaming he had a stomach ache!  He would not even come down the stairs.  I put him in my bed to watch t.v. and by 8:00 he was screaming he was about to throw-up!  Great!  Sadly, he was having "P.J. Day at school" and they were supposed to bring their favorite animal and they were making their animal a house.  He threw-up and said, "oh, no, I threw-up........that means I can't go to school!"  Nothing like being homebound to make you unpack some more boxes in the garage!  He was sick all Friday, we had to cancell some friends coming over for pizza.  He was still not at the top of his game Saturday morning, but we had several places we wanted to go Sat. a.m. to then be able to come home and enjoy the BEAUTIFUL WEATHER(close to 70 degrees).  He was a trooper.  One of the stops we made was to get Cal a pocket knife.  A friend of his has one and he has wanted one so bad, Matt decided he could get one.
He has dreams of going hunting with this knife :) Hunting season ended this weekend, so he is counting down to next fall!

He went with the Swiss Army because of all the different gadgets.  He can open his daddy a beer and his mommy a bottle of wine.  He picked out this little case too.  He SERIOUSLY could not be more proud or excited! 

After I took his picture with his knife, he asked if I would take a picture of him doing a flip. 

Since brother got a knife, Brady is going to learn to hunt with a bow and arrow or cross bow for his age!



This is what he looked like most of Friday and Sat.


Now here are a few of my favorite things about the house right now:


My mom and dad's dining room table and chairs.  I am "wanting" a new rug, new buffet, maybe four more chairs and will one day recover the chairs........................that is all one day..................


Our dining room table and chairs, now our kitchen table and chairs.


Another piece I brought back from mom's


Love these parfait glasses of my grandmother's
These old Bibles are from my grandmother's house.  The bottom one is one my mom gave my grandmother and granddaddy the year before she and my dad got married. 

My grandmother gave this to my grandaddy when they got married.  How sweet is this love note full of the word of the Lord?  (It is the little one on top in the picture above).
