HaPpY 25th Birthday to PARKER & LUKE!!

On their first birthday :)

Love these boys!  So much fun over the past 25 years. 

They have always brought much joy, happiness, and laughter to our family.

 Luke- what a character - Love his zest for life!!

Parker -in his first triathlon -he is such an encourager!

This is just a brief summary of a wonderful 25 years.  I could not be prouder of the men Luke and Parker have become.  I want to thank them for being good children to raise, for not talking back, for not going down the wrong path in life, for their positive attitude, for their love of adventure (and no, I didn't have a heart attack - even tho there were many times y'all about gave me one). Thank you both for being independent, responsible, caring, generous, fun, exciting, quick witted, and always confident enough to be yourself!! Stay true to yourself and always trust and lean on God for guidance, comfort, and strength.

I love you, admire you, and absolutely adore you both.  Wishing you a happy birthday today and many many more in the future!!!

I mean, can you get any more handsome than that - I think NOT!

a Little side story on Landry:

His bed in our bedroom is on Tim's side, right next to the bedside table, which is a round table with a cloth on it.  Well, the long cloth under the topper is just a sheet, and I have the long extra ends nicely tucked under the table (so not to look like I cheated and used a sheet and then didn't bother to hem it - and know I'm telling on myself).  Well, many days I notice that Landry has pulled out all that extra material!  So, I always fix it back and wonder what makes him do this! (and of course think Pete never messed with this, why is Landry).  Well, today Landry was still asleep when I got up and was getting dressed (and the only reason he would still be asleep is because it is MONDAY- and that dog is slam pooped after a weekend and he never gets up on time or even when we do,  he will eventually get up and go straight to his kennel.  It takes him to about Wednesday to recoup). Anyway, today, I noticed he had done it again!! So I tip toe over to see why - and that dog is laying his head on it like a pillow or his blanket!!!  Oh my lawd - this dog cracks me up.  It is totally my fault, I'm sure.  I am the one who always gave him a blanket and made him a pillow for his kennel- and he LOVES them.  He curls up with his blanket and pillow just like a baby would - precious.  So I guess to save my table, I need to give the poor little fellow a proper blanket for his bed downstairs!  Bless him.
