A Morales Minute

Lindsey was awarded another Starship McGee award.  The Citizenship  Congratulations Lindsey! We're so blessed to have such a wonderful student as our daughter.  I'm so glad you enjoy school. Keep up the good work. You're a bright star in our family let alone at school. :)

Uncle Dave, Aunt Chris, Jessica, Tony, and Jasmine came for a short visit last weekend.  My girls love to play with Jasmine. Since they recently saw each other during the summer they were super excited when they found out Jasmine was coming in October.  Fall produces... Playing in the leaves... and keeps them busy for a while. We have had such warm weather the past couple weeks. Tyler looks like he's soaking in some rays but really he's standing under the leaves Lindsey was shaking off the tree...she's up there even though you can't see her.  How cute is this! Little boy, BIG rake. :) Dave, Jess, Tony, and Lori enjoying a bag full of jelly bellies.  I Love my Uncle Dave. There's a spot just for him in my heart. :) Lori, Dave, Me Lori, Dave, Grandma, Me, Grandpa, Chris Our good-byes Saturday evening were many and long. It's hard to say good bye sometimes. We enjoyed having them here and wished they could st

Before they had to head out we snapped a few photos. Mom and her girls. Dad and his girls. Our infamous pose And messing around in a matter of seconds before we shouted good-byes! I had so much fun. I LOVE, LOVE my family. I missed my brothers on this day  My birthday was Tuesday. I felt loved by the many messages, texts, calls and cards that day. None of my kids remembered until Jaime came home from work. But that's ok. (I highly doubt I remembered my parent's birthdays when I was that young unless someone older reminded me.) The kids gave me a great gift that evening. Jaime and I were supposed to go out to dinner and his mom would watch the kids in Grandview. However, Jaime had meetings that he later found out h

My kids are wonderful. They are growing up into wonderful children. I love them so much. We've been very busy with this and that recently. This will be a long recap of some of what's been going on. :) The Primary Program was Sunday Sept 22. (I forgot to get a picture of them on that day but I did get pics of them the previous Sunday.) All four of them memorized their parts and stood at the microphone to say them without any hesitation at all. They were cute to watch singing the songs. Aidan was funny to watch with his gestures and making a heart with his hands through some of the songs. My parents and grandparents were able to come and watch. It was a special treat for the kids to have them there.  The Sunday this picture was taken there were hundreds of yellow butterflies all over the purple flowering bushes. It's hard to see them but on the left you can see one up close.  Tyler had his first talk in primary the Sunday after the program. He stood up to the mi
