State Champs!

Blowing Tay Tay big kisses!!! Way to go Texans!
Here it is... Cowboy Stadium.

Some of Tay's fan club.

This is the jumbo tron. Amazing.

Look at the center of this pic and then slightly to the right. See that yellow dot? THAT'S A CAR! That's how big this place was. It looked like something you'd put a quarter in to ride in.

Another shot of the jumbo tron.

My beauties.

Warming up.

That's us on the right. You can see Troy's mom talking to my dad behind Titus and I. Also, Bailey and Aunt Gena

This is what happens when you wake up your 2 year old at the crack of down, put him in the car for hours, and then feed him cotton candy. :)

Aunt E and Titus.

Uncle Doug and Regan watching the warm up.

Uncle Jesse and Aunt MarissaGrandie (my mama) who is usually behind the camera.

After warm up, on the way in to the locker room, the boys lined up single file to shake hands with Coach Nelms. If you look close, Coach was going for the handshake.... but look close -Tay went in for the hug. :)

All the waiting wore out Titus. He had a little nap until I started yelling my head off in the first quarter. Joshua with his little football... hoping that somebody will play "Frow" with him.

Here they come!!!

Another shot of the magnitude of this place.

Here's my boy on the jumbo tron... as if he wasn't already big enough.

And here's a shot of the magnitude of his "backside". :D

Tay and his QB and buddy - Brady Lambert.

This is blurry, but I love this look on his face. Pure Joy. He's looking up at his Dad.

Here's that masculine warrior victory cry!

Celebration!

The boys kneeling down to listen to Coach Nelms after the game... for the last time.

About 2 weeks ago the Lord showed me in a dream that we would win this game. While it's so special and even kind of sad that this high school football career is finished for Taylor, I believe with all my heart that this is really only the beginning. Taylor, this is what the Lord says to you - For I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you. Plans to give you a hope and a future.

And the cry of your Mama's heart is - bless him Lord.... bless him. In Jesus' name bless him.

Tunky's 1st Bday!!!

Titus' first birthday was last Saturday the 10th. Due to the fact that it's mega football season around here and Daddy had to work that day anyway, we waited until Monday and had a little family party.

Titus wanted touch the flame on his candle so bad... :0 It was a relief when Bug came and blew it out for him.

Isn't this one adorable? :D It captures his newly chipped tooth. Ahhhh, little busy boys. He just cut it a few weeks ago and now part of it's gone.

mmmm, cupcakes! Big brother wants him to share. :)

My "little" boy.

Not sure what else to say about that... except THANK YOU to the ONE who gives us every good and perfect gift from above.

ATTENTION!!! A Public Service Announcement

*****This is NOT a test***** This is a Public Service Announcement...

I just thought it would only be fair of me to inform all of you. I realize that it's December 10th and that most of you think that it's Christmas time. That's why I'm making this announcement. It's actually NOT Christmas time....

Can I get a drum roll please?

Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls....... (drum roll).......................

IT IS STILL FOOTBALL SEASON!!! WoooooooooooooHoooooooooooooooo!!! The Texans won last night 21-14 in one of the greatest and bloodiest battles of all time. They played Cold Spring which has arguably one of the best defenses in the state.... last night was the most points they'd given up all year. My favorite football player in history - the one and only - big # 79 (aka "Biggun") had the fight of his life on the line. Cold Spring had a couple of defensive ends that were big and fast and fierce. Taylor handled them beautifully. And because of that, his quarterback lives today. Tay fought like a champion! :D

The game was kind of down to the wire... one of those nail biters... We were tied in the 4th quarter, with 1:49 left on the clock. By the time the clock was down to 1:14 we scored a touchdown and pulled ahead 21-14. The next minute was like an eternity... very questionable and controversial call by the refs... crazy penalties, etc... The crowd was going WILD!!! And in the end - Final score 21-14... THE TEXANS ARE GOING TO THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP!!!

So, just in case y'all might've thought that next Friday we were gonna be at a Christmas party somewhere... THINK AGAIN!!! We'll be in Dallas at Cowboy Stadium to watch the Texans go up against the Argyle Eagles!!! LET'S GO BIG BLUE!!!

Rejoice With Singing

The LORD your God is with you

He is mighty to save.

He will take great delight in you

He will quiet you with his love

He will rejoice over you with singing. I can't remember if I've ever posted this picture of Titus or not. Every time I look at it I laugh and then cry. He is such a beautiful gift. The verse above is from Zephaniah 3:17. I am reminded today of the LORD's crazy sweet love for me. He has pointed me to this verse and said, "Bon, you know how you feel when you see Titus' big grin, hear his belly laugh, smell his sweet little neck, feel his silky soft skin?... you know that feeling of just wanting to laugh and cry and dance and sing?... in fact sometimes you just burst forth with little songs about your love for him?... Bonnie, that's how I feel about you baby." Wow, now that's a word from the LORD.

"Wet's Go Texans!" (clap-clap, clap-clap-clap!)

The title is Joshua's theme song these days. The W sound replaces his L sounds. (Wet's vs Let's) He likes to get the lids to my pots and pans and bang them together like cymbals. Sometimes he yells, "Texans High School Band!" as he marches and bangs them all over the house. (never a dull moment here) As I'm writing this, I am reminded of a scripture - Psalm 150:5 says, "Praise Him with the clash of cymbals, praise Him with resounding cymbals!" hmmm, out of the mouths of babes??? :D

The fun continues! The Texans beat the Devine Warhorses last night 38-12! That makes them the Region IV champs and State semi-finalists!!! Tay did really great! Of course he plays offense and they all did awesome, but I had to give a shout out to the Texan defense. They were amazing! We are so proud of all those young men... they were soldiers last night!

I am TOTALLY grateful to God for answering my prayer to hold back the thunderstorms and rain that had been predicted all week. I was kind of a nervous wreck (too bad I didn't just trust Him) and had myself kind of worked up about it - What will I do with the little babies???? Will we have to go sit in the car during the game? Will the game get called because of lightning??? And on and on. Turned out to be beautiful weather. Thank you God.

So we play this Friday night in Bastrop at 7:30 against Cold Spring. Should be a show-down... but, isn't that what we've been waiting for? Wet's go Texans (clap-clap, clap-clap-clap!)
