The Queen’s Chronicles – Week 21

Well….this week was definitely not as we expected but we managed to find lots of fun along the way!  

Monday night Carly received the badges she earned during the past few months in Brownies.  She was so blessed to have such a caring troop leader who did a great job organizing activities for this troops first year.  

Carly reluctantly modeled one of her new outfits for me before we started packing for the Big XII tourney. 

We left College Station at 5:30 am and after one speeding ticket, one emergency stop on the side of the road to potty and one illegal u-turn on the turnpike, we arrived to watch the Horned Frogs lose game one.  This is definitely a look of frustration.  It is always hard to watch a team lose but when your child is on the mound and you know they are having a bad day it is just heart wrenching.  He is still my favorite!  

The next day was no better and we watched the Horned Frogs drop game two first thing in the morning.  No rest for the weary….we fed this boy and then hugged his neck and jumped in the car to head back to College Station.  

Sometimes you just need to be with your family even if it is only for a few hours.  So many prayers for these brothers.  There may be 8 years between them but I know there is so much love and respect. And gosh…they are pretty darn handsome too! 

Carly was so excited to have a swim party to attend on Saturday since we were not even at the hotel long enough for a dip in the pool!  The sun actually came out for a few hours before it started raining again.   

We joined her Girl Scout troop for a bowling party Saturday night while Dillon & Keith were still in Houston waiting on baseball.  Dillon played at 10am and was suppose to play again at 12:30….ended up not playing until 9pm.  Baseball life…it’s a little crazy!  

 It rained heavily before 9am and after that the sky threatened and there were a few sprinkles but after church we decided to take our chances and head out for some fishing.  It turned out to be a perfect afternoon and the fish were small but biting!  

Wishing you all a super week!  Only 3 1/2 days of school left for my kidos….we are on the final countdown!
