Daddy's BEST helpers

The boys and I have been trying to help Levi as much as we can lately! This week we re nozzeled a sprinkler and have several more to do, the boys were rock stars and we had a great day.  This is our " crazy busy" time of the year. Between ranching and farming everyone is running 15 different directions and  ALWAYS eating dinner out of the microwave!

 I have to remind myself, more often than I would like to admit, that this is just a season and all the hard work everyone is putting in this time of the year is what we pray will make our crop and cattle herd profit this next year!  For me it's easy to get caught up in a negative mindset...am I really taking the boys to another bday party by myself, another fiasco Sunday in which we are ALONE at church, yes my kids are crazy at the grocery store and YES I am not making them sit in the basket; they need to expend a little energy before we start our 35 minute drive home.  I do realize that most people don't analyze my life, and I often let the enemy take my mind and toy with it.
  
At the end of the day I am so grateful for a husband who has the ability and means to work so incredibly hard for me and our boys!  I could haven't married a better loving man, who after a 12+ day usually 7 days a week NEVER walks into our house and says he is too tired for the boys or me!!  We love you Levi James and all you do for us!!!  

BEST helpers a Mommy could ask for

Natalie and I are coaching the boys in tball again this year!  We have such a fun group of boys...we were able to have the three cousins together again this year as well as several from or team last year!!  Although it takes alit of patience and my competitive spirit must be dampered WE HAVE SO MUCH FUN!!!  I dot have great pics yet...I need my photographer to take some like she did last year...hint hint Whit!  These will have to start the season off!!

My 2 1/2 year old thinks he is part is the team which at times creates a lot of toddler drama!!

Easter





Easter was great, we were able to spend time with both sides of the family and the boys got to hunt eggs in a little rain shower we were blessed with.

TOO Big!!!


This is the smile of a  registered kindergartner!  Cole is officially enrolled in Dalhart...I can't believe he won't be with me all day next year, not sure what Judson and I will do.  
 Here's to a great summer!

King George

A few weeks ago we took my parents to see George Strait and what a fun time we had!  When "the Johnson's" all get together we are in for a great time!




The trip to Wichita and back were almost as fun as the concert itself.  We had ALOT of laughs!!!
