I wasn't planning for this, but just being myself, I took tons of pictures and wrote down lots of quotes this past Friday, so that's what I'm using here. (I was off work for Veteran's Day.)
After eating the Hardees buscuits Dad brought us for breakfast, Mom and I headed over to Rachael's to help decorate. She's doing red, green, black, white, and gold this year - here are a few pics so far! =)
Rach informed us that they were shutting down 15th Street for a Veteran's Day Parade... It was nice out, so me, Rach, and Kyndal Faith walked down to watch a bit of it and cheer for our military and veterans!!
Mom stayed back and worked on laying out the pics for their black-and-white entry wall!
I spent a lot of the morning working on transferring files and setting up the new computer for them... so many cords!!
I gladly took a break when the Miss K asked me if I'd read her a book. =) It's called Ten Little Princesses and there's an illustration of ten little girls. She asked what their names were, and I told her it didn't say their names. To which she impatiently said, "Just tell me!!" lol So I said... "This is Karli, and this is Kelly, and this is Sarah and Tiffany and Laura and Elizabeth..." LOL
Mom went to get the Jaceman from CHA, and we had a Chick-Fil-A lunch break. Kyndal wanted us to get a back-to-back pic and one with our arms together since "we match red!" #preshface ❤
I watched Rach braid K's hair, then I helped her reposition the Joy to the World sign! Then the Miss K offered me a "Rice Christmas Treat!" Presh!!
Then it was their nap time, and I marveled at the quick-changing moods of the Jaceman! lol
Mom and I went home and snacked on a pumpkin spice bundtini (I brought some Nothing Bundt Cakes as a fun surprise). Then we went together to pick up T&C, which I'm so glad I got to be there for! Brooke had called that morning and told Rach that she was in labor, so when they got in the car, they were confused because Rach wasn't supposed to have them that day. Mom excitedly told them they were going home with us and would be going to the hospital later that night to meet their new baby brother, Bryson Emmett Hughes!! They both wanted to run and tell their teachers, and when they came back, T-man was tearing up. He said, "Sorry. I just get emotional sometimes." ❤ It was so sweet, and I told him that's good because this is a big deal! Brooke had a scheduled C-section for the 17th, so Carter was very confused by the date change and asked, "So has everyone just been kidding us this whole time?" lol
(Here are some pics of them meeting Bryson later that night. Now they have J&K on Josh and Rach's side... and Mason, Bryson, and Rylee on Brooke and Aaron's side.)
We brought T&C back to Rachael's, then Dad and I headed to Penn Square to see Daddy's Home 2. It was fun and funny, and it's always nice to get to chat and hang out with Dad!
Jace Michael came with Mamaw to stay the night! He was super excited and kept telling me how great it was that we get to stay the night together! lol Whilst we were all having our baked potatoes, Rach and co. brought him back a Bumblebee balloon, which he was super psyched about! I told him to act tough in this pic, and I just love it!! lol
EDIT: I somehow forgot this part when I wrote this post, so I'm adding it in a couple days late. The Jaceman said the cutest dinner prayer ever... "God, You're so handsome, and I love you! You're the best!! Amen." Using all the compliments he hears from Mamaw! lolol ❤
So much entertainment and cuteness just overflowing from the Jaceman! lol His facetime convo with Rach was all hilarious. He goes outside with Dad to help with the dogs, and I took the bottom right pic as J had Mom's phone to watch a video and Dad was checking FB. =) Then they came in, and as Dad was getting the dogs' treats ready, and I asked where Jace was. Dad said probably back in the room with the dogs. I came back there right in time to see him trying on Dad's CPAP mask, asking Dad, "Hey, can I try this on?" as he was already clearly in process, which cracked me up!
(Talking about his classmates)
Me: "So is anyone your girlfriend?"
J: "Yeaaah, Daph-a-ne! ...She said, 'Fiiiine, I’ll be your girlfriend.'"
Me: "Winning!"
(I love that he always says her name 3-syllables like Stephanie.)
Jace (at school): "Oh, it’s my friend! Roll down the window!"
Mom: "What’s his name?"
J: "I don’t knooooow, but he’s my friend!!!"
Jace, facetiming with Rach and Josh who live literally a few houses down the street: "So what time is it over at your house!?"
J to Rach, via Facetime: "That Bumblebee balloon is the BEST! I love Bumblebee and Optimus!! Well, I really wanted Optimus, but that’s okay!"
Me, yelling so she could hear: "Thanks a lot for the sub-par gift!" lol
J, trying to position Bumblebee where he could watch over him as he slept: "Grandpa, I’m gonna need a little help in here!" lol
Okay, that's all on that a day in the life subject!!
*Today marks the 6th anniversary of Mom and Dad's car wreck. And the day I became FB friends with Jill, which seems appropriate. Here are two things I posted this morning to commemorate that...
