The sand was white powder and super soft. The water was clear and beautiful. Although it was FILLED with jellyfish. We caught about 20 jellyfish in our fishing net and on our last day, Eli got stung by one. He was really strong about it and it didn't slow him down for very long. <br />

A couple of times we saw dolphins swimming out in the water. The first time I saw them I panicked because all I could see was a fin. My first thought was SHARK! but we quickly realized they were dolphins. This picture was taken from our balcony.</div>

On Sunday afternoon, we arrived at our destination.... Sandestin, Florida. We booked our trip without knowing much about the resort, etc. We were all nervous as we walked to our room (condo). It was a very nice resort with beautiful views and scenery, but until we saw our room we were still nervous. As it turns out, our room was PERFECT!!!! It was a beautiful beachfront condo that was perfect for our family. Only one king bed, but we brought the air mattress and there was plenty of room for it in the same room as the king bed. We had a full kitchen and a washer/dryer....and a vacuum (Eli was most impressed with this!) Perfect for an 8 day stay at the beach!!! We planned to do a little sight seeing, but ended up spending every day at the beach and pool. It was perfect!!! We all had a great time and are ready to go back the first chance we get!!</div>

We went on our first LONG family road trip in May. We drove 13 hours to Destin, Florida. When we left we were optimistic about how the drive would go but kept saying...you never know if 13 hours is too long until you try. We tried and it was not bad at all!! We split it up into 2 days which made it much easier. We left on Saturday afternoon and drove to Shreveport. We stopped for dinner....the kids discovered Cracker Barrel....and then drove three more hours to Vicksburg, Mississippi. Eli and I studied the Mississippi River last fall so Eli was very interested in seeing it. We arrived in Vicksburg late and Eli was already asleep. The next morning we spent time looking around the river and some of the Civil War battlegrounds. Eli LOVED that...we will definitely be back to Mississippi to do more sightseeing when all of the kids are a little older. </div>

Jumping bed to bed in the Vicksburg hotel.....my sister and I used to do this as kids when we were on vacation. I never taught Eli and Chase to do this. Some things are just born in kids. Luckily we didn't end up with a bloody nose or lip like we have in the past. ; )</div>

We had a great time celebrating Dad's birthday! And I have to say, I've been waiting a LONG time for this one!! As long as I can remember I've wanted to have a "Phillips 66" party for Dad on his 66th birthday. : ) And my Grandma told me years ago that we had to do that for him. I was so happy with the cake...I never really know if the cakes are going to turn out, but I loved this one!!! Happy 66th Birthday, Dad!!!</div>

I've always wanted to have the pictures taken in the bluebonnets, but have never been able to justify the cost. This year, we went to a great bluebonnet hill and I took some pictures. I got some great ones, but obviously wasn't able to get a family picture. I sill LOVE the pictures and am so glad that we did it!! </div>

Easter was a fun time of celebrating our risen Lord!! We spent the day at church and home....a nice, quiet, relaxing day.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Another reason to celebrate....Easter was the one year mark since Chase's last hospital stay!! Woo-Hoo!! Chase has been super healthy over the past year and we are very thankful!! Praying his good health continues and we have seen the last of his hospital stays!!! : )</div>

I started taking Reed and Chase to story time at the library (aka Library School). Reed found a book that he LOVES...Good News Bad News. We check it out (or re-check it) every trip to the library. And if you come to our house, get ready....you will likely be sitting in a chair and reading it to Reed! :) Ga-Ga reads it to them almost every time he is here! : )</div>

It seems a little crazy to go back all the way back to February and update my blog, but I'm going to try. We so enjoy looking at the years past and I want to be able to continue to do that! I don't make official scapbooks (all their keepsakes are in a box) so this is as close as it gets to any official record. : )</div>

During spring break, we visited the Pero.t Museum with some friends. The kids had a great time looking, exploring and playing. It is a really neat place that is packed with information....a little overwhelming at times. We had a great time and have been back a few times thanks to our membership (Christmas gift!).</div>

I can't believe it!!! Eli is 7!!! WHAT?!?! How did that happen?!?! I remember the day he was born like it was yesterday and now he's 7. Crazy how that happens!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Eli is an amazing kid!! He is so full of energy. He loves life and all it has to offer. He loves to learn new things and he love to spend time with friends and family one on one. I am just so proud of him and cannot wait to see how God is going to use this sweet boy. He has a amazing desire to help and serve others and I just know God is going to use those gifts in a very unique way. Eli begs me to go on mission trips and to help kids that "don't have much". </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Eli decided that he just wanted to celebrate with family this year. As we were discussing party options (and aren't kid parties crazy out of control these days?!?!), he just said "Mom, can we just have a family party and go out to eat? BUT, I still want a cake and presents!" : )</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So, he made my job really easy. He chose Joe's Crab Shac.k for dinner and a fire truck themed "party". He is VERY into fighting fires right now!!! He loves all the equipment that firefighters use and likes to learn how it works and keeps them safe. It was a very fun birthday party!! </div>

It seems that spring has come early in Texas. Our daffodils are blooming and the grass is turning green. Although we have a had a few cold days here and there, it is really nice for the most part. All of this means lots of play time outside. Eli, Chase and Reed would live outside if we would let them. When the weather is nice, I bet we spend an average of 5 hours a day outside. </div>

I got a juicer and now I just want to juice everything! : ) I absolutely love it and think everyone should have one! The kids love it too, but they don't love all the juice I make. Their favorite is just plain orange juice. But, they also enjoy carrot/apple juice. They don't even know it's carrot juice! My favorite so far (the one in the pic above) is kale, cucumber, carrots and green apple. It may not look pretty, but it is so good. I actually crave it....it is that good! <br />
<br />
Hunter and I laughed the other day......in 20 years will we look back and say...."Ha! Remember when we had that juicer and we used to juice everything?!?!"

One thing I love about University Mod.el School is that at least two days a week, we don't have to rush out the door in the morning. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, we don't have to wake up at a certain time. We don't have to get dressed, make lunch, eat a quick breakfast and rush out the door. It's slow. And we LOVE slow in our house! The kids sit at the table and eat a slow breakfast together. They have conversations that would be missed if we rushed out to school every day. I love it and I cherish the conversations that I overhear and the extra time we have together at home. </div>

Until recently, one of Chase's medications came from a compounding pharmacy. After shopping around and around and around, the best price we could find for the medication was $126 a month and insurance reimbursed us $6. : ) One day after I called in for a refill, I remembered that really the only reason that we have the medication compounded is because Chase was unable to swallow a pill when he started the medication (immediately after birth). Then after speaking to the pharmacy and the insurance company, I realized that all the pharmacy was doing was crushing a tablet and putting it in a liquid form. So, I called Chase's cardiologist and asked if we could get his dosage in a pill form and we could!! So we got a few of the pills to see if Chase could swallow it. We gave it to him and he literally put it on his tongue, took a small drink of water and swallowed the pill!!! AMAZING! So now we get his rx at wal-mar.t for $4 a month!! Besides the fact that it saves us $120 a month, it's filled at a chain pharmacy. So, if we are out of town and I forgot his medicine or he needs a refill, I can get it with no problem. YAY!!!! This is huge!! We are so proud of Chase!!!Laurahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17701336726589733667noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2752739846667864564.post-14537464893632717892013-02-28T19:44:00.001-08:002013-02-28T19:44:35.189-08:00Chaseman<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Oh Chaseman! I bet I say that about 10-20 times a day. There is just no way to accurately describe little Chaseman. Sweet. Funny. Passionate. Hungry. Monkey. Strong. Innocent. Just some of the words that describe my sweet little Chase. God has something special planned for this kid!!!</div>

If in stock, Chase eats 2-4 bananas a day! I am amazed at how much and how often he eats! It's really crazy!!! I know, I know....just wait until he's a teenager....I'm going to have to get a paying job just to buy enough groceries for 3 teenage boys!!!</div>

Well, I was not a good blogger in 2012....I think I posted about 50 times which is about 1/4 the number of posts in years past. I'm sad about that because I LOVE looking back at old post, and the kids really like looking back. I guess our blog is our modern day photo albums. I remember as a kid that I LOVED going into my Dad's closet and pulling out the photo albums. I'm not so sure that my parent's loved it because I'm sure I didn't put them back! : ) Anyway, I am determined to post more in 2013. </div>

HUGE STEP!!! This was Eli's first school program that he participated in successfully. He's had programs in the past (preschool and kindergarten) but he didn't participate. He just wasn't ready. This year, we encouraged him to participate and he did!!! He did so well and we were so proud of him. His class recited Psalm 23, sang a song (can't remember the title). And his spanish class sang "Open the Eyes Of My Heart, Lord" in spanish. So proud and such a HUGE moment for him. : )</div>

After they got the DS.....they played, and played and played!!! We let them play without rules (time limits) for a few days. We have started time limits now and it has surprisingly been an easy transition for the most part. Eli is easy....Chase is a little harder. He would play it ALL day, every day if we let him. We don't let them play them in the car but Chase always wants to bring his with him....just to hold. : )</div>

We had family in town a couple of weeks after Chase's birthday, so we had a little "party" for him while they were here. We ordered pizza and had cupcakes. Chase loved that his birthday just kept going and going and going! : )</div>
