Devyn's 5k

Devyn ran in the 5K at the Owa-Chito Festival this year. He came in 3rd in his age division. To me just finishing was great but he was really excited when he realized he beat his cross country coach.

My internet at home is not working so I haven't been able to update with any pictures, but I have other great news.

I passed my insurance test!!! Yay! I was so nervous even though Todd told me not to worry, I was still very worried. I studied harder for that than anything I think I have ever studied for in my life. I went Saturday to Texarkana. I didn't have to be there until Noon but I left at 9:30 and found where I was to be by 10:45. I sat in the car and read over and over it again and again. After the test the lady asked me "how do you feel" I said not good and she said well you should feel good cause you passed. I said oh that's great. LOL

Wilb and the kids came and meet me later and we went and watched UP in 3D. This was Bret's first time to go to the theatre. He did pretty good at first but once he got comfortable in the dark he wanted to walk around. It was fun but I don't think we will be going again anytime soon. I was so happy I passed my test we had popcorn and Coldstone for supper. Darci really like that. :)

Daddy is 33

and Mommy is gone for a week

First I know I am really behind on updating. Daddy's birthday was Monday June 1 and I didn't get to blog on Sunday night like I usually do. I left on Monday afternoon and didn't get home until Friday from insurance school for my new job. I had a good time but I did miss being away from home. That was the longest I had ever been away. Friday night when I got home Bret kept saying "Stay home Mommy stay home". It was so sweet and when we woke up Saturday Bret asked "Mommy you stay home??" I almost wanted to cry. Thanks so much to Nonnie for helping Daddy take care of you two while I was gone and thanks to Aunt Beck, Uncle Dave, Randi and Lindsey for helping take care of me while I was in Little Rock. Randi and Lindsey cooked dinner for me one night and we went out for lots of other goods stuff. Bonefish Grill was absolutly delicious too. I will go and take my state test next week for my license. I'm still pretty nervous about that but I think it will be ok.

We had a good weekend before I left with Daddy for his birthday. We had our traditionaly birthday pancakes and we bought him a cake. We were in search of an ice cream cake but had to settle for something different. Darci had to add some decorations to it when we got home to make it look better she said. We cooked out under our special place out back and the kids had fun swimming.

I missed all of you so much while I was gone.

We love you Daddy!!

Dino-Fest

Since Brother didn't get to go to the water park for the party, he got to go to the Dino-Fest by himself. I feel like its been Darci, Darci, Darci again. Bret really has grown up alot lately. He doesn't have to be tied down in a stroller anymore. He doesn't break and run every time his feet hits the ground like he did at one time. And he is doing really good with his potty training. My Big Boy...
