Guess Who is 6........

my baby jonny!


He is just getting so big. He is walking up to his class this morning in this picture. The others are just a few for your enjoyment from the big party on Saturday! He had a few of his soccer buds and buds from church come and hang out playing some four square and beating the dino pinata for some goodies. His Mimi and Papaw, Aunt Kate and cousins Isabella and Lilly, and Aunt Lana and his teacher from school Ms. Klakamp came to make sure fun was had by all!

Thank you to all our people who came and made Jonny's day the best!








Dinosaur bingo for the little ones enjoyment. Ryan and Mimi were great with them!



More four square play! Jman is in his boots (no socks)~


Dinosaur cake!

I am so cute!I am so tired!

Five Generations!!

This has only happened one other time in my family as I have seen it! My sister Stacy was doing this almost 21 years ago with our great granddaddy and her daughter Brittany. Now it is her turn with her daughter Amanda and Baby Dillon. Pictured above seated is my Granny holding Dillon, standing from left to right, my sister Stacy, niece Amanda, and my mom Jan. WHOOO HOOO We have five generations to proudly show off. Not only on Amanda's mom's side but her dad's too! Dillon gets to have his picture in the paper two times!


Oh look who I caught with a big ol' smile on his face! You got it, my great nephew Dillon.


Oh the joys of the favorite great aunty!!!!!!!!! Arent we just the cutiest thing you ever seen? Did you know he has my ears. He got the best from his best:)

Catching up......

We had a great holiday season with our family! The big group picture is my family on my dad's side. My sisters, nieces, nephew, great nephew and in-laws. We were at my parents house for our Christmas celebration! It is so much fun to cram us all in momma and daddy's house! Controlled nut house:)

This is my Granny and the boys. She is my last living grandparent. We went to her house on Christmas day! Now that was some crazy people happenin' there! It is cool because usually all the grandkids show up on Christmas Day. We dont know how long the tradition will continue so we cherish everyone we get! The boys are showing a little bit of their excitement in the next picture. It was a long day and still had more to go.


We always take a mini family vacation around the first of the year to celebrate at a hotel in the area and eat Crystal Burgers for a late night snack. I am not sure who looks forward to our little trip more the boys or Roger and I. We so enjoy our family time together and are so thankful that God has given us two great boys with humungo hearts, great family around us to watch them grow into great Scott Men. As we brought in the new year, the boys falling asleep to a movie and Roger and I on the internet looking for lamps, we are greatful for the provisions we have been given!

That's a rap continued

Thanksgiving was very feastful for us. Jonny got to experience his first feast at school. It was so cool watching the kids eat their turkey lunch meat and visiting with one another dressed as Native Americans and Pligrims. As you can see my little Native American is still a little goofy:)
Oh looky here. Great Aunt Tammy got to see her great nephew Dillon Seth the day he entered this old world. His mommy is doing great and he is so yummy. It is hard to believe that my sister not only hit 40 but she became a grandma too. She knows I love her with all my heart but just cant resist reminding her she hit 40 before I did. I hope you enjoy my little cuttie patootie. I am sure there will be more pics coming soon.
Here I am holding my little buddy.
The Scott Family tradition every Christmas is to travel to Terrell to Walls Family Farm to cut down our Christmas Tree. Papaw got to make the journey with us this time. We were sad that Mimi was sick and couldnt join us. Maybe next year! So timmmmmbbbbbeeerrrr. Our tree and the faithful tree hunters.
Now this is Jonny's teacher on our way to Canton to a tree farm with 5 other classes of kindergarten. We made a day of it and I think we were all having a simular look on our face. Most of the kids fell asleep on the way home and were ready to go again once we arrived back at school. We had a total blast. Jonny has a new classmate and he has not been in the states very long. He so enjoyed roasting marshmellows and taking a hayride! He had a smile bigger than Texas. Jonny has taken him under his wing to help him learn how things work in class. Thats my boy!
Well that about sums up the Scott family year. We are recooperating from the busyness of the holidays and will take a little over night trip to make our vacation complete.
We pray that you and your family enjoyed your time together and took a moment to remember that Jesus was born on Christmas morn and that He is why we celebrate.

That's a rap!


The year is winding down and I should share a little of what is happening and happened to our family over the last few months.
October was a crazy month for us. We started the remodel on our house! It has been such a blessing to have things cleaned up and have a touch of the Scott family on it. We had not done anything over the last 10 years except paint the boys rooms. So it was time. Here is a picture of the living room. We also got new furniture but it wasnt here at that time.
Halloween came and went. I did not get a good picture of the boys in their costumes. Not sure what I was thinking! I guess it was the first year we did not have to do a lot with the festivial at our church. So here they are in all their camo ninja glory.
We have a new additon to our family. This is Minnie our family dog! Thank you Aunt Stacy and Kierston. Minnie has been a good thing for us. The boys love her and I even like her too. She got to sleep in my bed so you know I gotta like her a little:)

Out of the mouth of babes!


Today I had a long day at church. Ryan and I were together and Roger and Jonny were together. While Roger was working on our floors (putting in new ones), he and Jonny were talking about the baby's room (coming from China at some point in our lifetime) saying we had to get it cleaned up for her to be able to have a room. They were talking about how long it was going to take for us to bring her home and Roger said that it was going to be a long time and Jonny's reply, "Yea, I know, that really Sucks!" (of course his dad told him that those were probably not the nicest words to put out there but it was true.)


As I sat at the computer tonight, the boys were in bed reading and Roger had gone back to their room and Jonny was reading one of his new books. He was saying something about the Old Testament. Well, Roger told me they were watching Andy Griffith today and it was in black and white and Jonny said, "that is Old Testament!"


They are so darn cute!


I will blog more soon. I have some great pictures to post.

Happy Birthday to Stacy and Tammy!



September was a momentous month for my oldest sister, Stacy and myself. She turned 40 and I 37. I love her so much. It is a blessing to share a birthday with her. Her girls planned a dinner to her surprise and our family attended minus our parents(sick) and Roger(working). We had an incredible time celebrating together. Mother and Daddy had our favorite cake made for us, Strawberry - YUMMY. Here is a picture......


The weekend started on Friday the 28th. Roger reserved a hotel for us in Frisco. Massages awaited us on arrival. He came to check us in and when we went to our room, he had brought us some of our childhood favorite snacks! FUNIONS AND BEANDIP and DR. PEPPER (the real stuff from Dublin) - go granny go granny. I am sure if he would have been able to pull it off there would have been maccaroni goo and pepperoni and mushroom pizza from Pizza Inn to go along. We ate and ate that weekend. We went to the movies and totally enjoyed our time together. We ended up at First Monday (another childhood memory).


So to my sister, I hope you enjoyed our time together, I know I did! We should make this an annual event.


Disclamer: Please note that Stacy's daughters were the ones to plan her surprise:)
