Pinkbonnets?

Don't know what these pink wildflowers are called, but there seem to be more of them this year than bluebonnets. Carsyn and I stopped on the way home from dance at the Walmart distribution center, prayed for no snakes, and then posed away.

The Elliott Update

So Scott spent his first week in Ft.Worth at the Budget Suites. And other than having to take cover with his precious truck during a potentially very dangerous storm on Thursday, he had a great week. He is already hitting the jobsites an doing as well as everyone knew he could! So far he loves it. But we are all looking forward to selling this house and living together in Ft. Worth in a new house!
The kids and I managed to keep the house "showable" all week long, which is one of my biggest accomplishments in life. We all missed daddy,but did well at home alone. Marcus stepped up as the man of the house during the week, which is pretty cool.
Scott is home this weekend, but next weekend we plan on going up there to check out new houses.
I have applied to a few districts up there and am waiting for responses.

Bluebonnets!

Bluebonnets!!!

It is officially bluebonnet season here in Texas, but this year wasn't so good. My usual spot was unproductive. Marcus saw a big patch on the busride home on Friday that we went to today after church. Only setback was the clearly posted no trespassing signs. I figured that my girls were so cute that they wouldn't dare arrest us. We didn't have much time for posing, but snapped a few. Enjoy!

Big News Wednesday

Amy had ten things Tuesday...couldn't think of anything catchy, but here's some exciting news from the Elliott house and a few other random thoughts.

1. The biggest news???  Scott is officially employed by RDO equipment in Ft. Worth.  He will be selling/renting John Deere equipment...how cool is that?   He starts next Monday and is so excited!  It is an amazing job.  We are putting the house on the market ASAP and hope to sell rather quickly and make a bundle...enough to buy a big house in Ft. Worth!  We don't know exactly where we're headed because there's tons to consider...houses, schools, my job, neighborhoods...etc.  Carsyn is ready...she wants her own princess room and wants Payton to have her own fairy room.  And she wants to ride a bike, finally!  Marcus is actually excited too!

So thanks for all of your prayers...God answered them!  Now pray for the sale of our house, for me to find a job, and to find a good neighborhood to live in and send our kids to school in!

2.  I am officially resigning my position at HHHS...I have been here for 10 years so it's kinda weird....but exciting!

Now onto random thoughts>>>

The Hills...Lauren is kinda bothering me this season...she needs to leave Heidi alone before she loses her job!  And she needs to get over poor pathetic Heidi.  I like Stephanie.  Audrina has a lazy eye, I think.  Spencer is an idiot...he's such a loser.  Heidi is turning way too plastic.  And she has no friends...sad.  Two episodes in a row rocks!!!
