Four Generations of Friday Men

Visits with GaGa are so special!

Turner's obviously the coolest...

3rd grader in the entire world.  Has to be.  I mean...come on...there can't possibly be any other reason he wouldn't let me walk him in this morning.  Right?

(Ohmygoodness, I just wanna pinch his cute "too cool for his momma to walk him in" face.  He really is the coolest.)

I Have a New Obsession...

PINTEREST.

And because of this new obsession, I learned how to make this... 

...homemade ice cream in a ziploc baggie.

It only takes five minutes.  Seriously.

Was it good?  Yep.

Will I make it again?  Every day.

Do my kiddos and their cousins look adorable whilst enjoying their own personal baggies of homemade ice cream?  Yep.

Click here and you too can enjoy homemade ice cream, in a baggie, in only 5 minutes. Seriously.

Better Together

 

  

It's always better when we're together.

Summer Fun in the Son

Every summer our church does a week long event called Summer Fun in the Son.  It's a fabulous week for kids K-5th grade filled with water, fun, and Jesus.  For the past 3 years I've loved being a leader.  

This summer has been a little different. Our beloved children's minister has decided to retire after almost 25 years of devoting her life to leading children to the Lord.  She is amazing and so loved.  My children adore her, especially Turner.  She's just, for lack of better words, the best...the very best.

We've been on our own this week, without Mrs. Jean to lean on.  It really has gone wonderfully, without a single glitch, BUT we have missed Mrs. Jean tremendously.  Especially today...she would've loved today!  

We took all 40 kids to the beach.  We had a picnic lunch and snow cones.  The kids were so well behaved and to top it all off there were starfish EVERYWHERE!  I have never seen a live starfish until today.  The kids found at least 30.  It was so much fun and I'm glad T and AC will always have this memory.

The kids made a cross with all of the starfish they found.

 

We're Ba-ack!

That's right...The Friday Family is back! Be looking for a new blog post to be all up in yo' face soon.

    BA-BAM!

 It's going to be LEGEN...wait for it...DARY!

To Blog Or Not To Blog...

So, I'm guessing, because I'm really important and everyone is dying to know what I'm going to write about next, (AHEM...yeah right) you've noticed that I haven't blogged in over a month.

Here's the thing...I'm pretty sure that I'm not in love with this whole blogging thing. I think it's super fun to read the blogs of friends and there are a few that I'm even obsessed with...i.e...the sister-in-law's...let's be honest...she's hilarious.

I'm not a writer...in fact...I've decided that it bores me to tears. I would much rather be having a tea party with AC or playing cards with T.

So...

Farewell blogging world. The Friday family is out! Holla! :)
