Happy 7th Birthday Ethan

My boy is 7! How is the world did that happen???

And a "boy" is NOT at all what he is anymore :(. Brian has successfully turned him into a Man's MAN!

The boy likes hunt, fish, camp, hike, play ball (all sports with a ball!), work hard, eat meat and burp! (Way to go Brian :~)

But my kind, loyal and tender hearted gentleman he'll always be!

Happy birthday to the only other "man" in my life who has the power to make me laugh, make me cry and make my heart skip a beat. I love you precious one with my whole heart!

End of Football Season Party

I can't believe the season is over. What a GREAT GREAT GREAT season it was. The kids were SPECTACULAR the coaches were SUPERB and the team spirit was off the charts!!! We loved EVERY minute of EVERY practice and EVERY second of EVERY game.

We are PROUD to be Hurricanes and eagerly counting down to August 2010. :)

"T" is for Thanksgiving...

Today we had the great pleasure of attending the 1st Grader's Thanksgiving Program and it was SPECTACULAR!!!

Before we get to the pics though I have to share some of their funny jokes with you...

Ready??

Here we go:

Q:Why did the turkey play the drums in the band?
A: Because he had the "drumsticks"

Q: What did the turkey say before he was put in the oven?
A: I'm stuffed

Q: What did the turkey say to the customers in the grocery store?
A: Chicken's on sale.

Q: Why did the turkey cross to road
A: To get to the chicken

Knock Knock
Who's there?
Gladys.
Gladys who?
"Glad its Thanksgiving

Aren't those great?

The kids sang some adorable songs, entertained us with some clever funnies and then blew us away with their down right cuteness!!!

Hi 5 to the 1st Grade teachers and all their students - LOVED LOVED LOVED the program.

Ok! Ok! now here's the pictures:

Happy Birthday Stephanie

In honor of Stephanie's birthday our families and our parents all headed to THE BEACH, where we soaked up the sun, the sand, the air and made life long memories all while celebrating one beautiful lady, momma, wife, sister, daughter, niece and friend.

A BIG THANK YOU to Auntie Ann for the beach condo hook up. LOVED LOVED LOVED spending time with you and SOOOOOO enjoyed the feast you made for all of us.

"Love One Another" - Gone Bad...

Meet Pastor Teddy...Teddy is our "Care" Pastor. He oversees the spiritual "wellness" at CCPSL. If you have a baby he'll make sure you have home cooked meals delivered for a week, if you have surgery he will pray over you during his visit with you at the hospital. If you and your love one desire to get married he'll council and marry you. If you are struggling in your finances he will offer you guidance. If you have a "need" Pastor Teddy will "care" for you and pray you through it.

His motto for as long as I have known him has been "LOVE ONE ANOTHER".

I'm thinking Brian and Rafael may have taken him a *little* out of context...

Cold Winter Nights...

Ha! We live in Florida who am I kidding?

Well just because we live in Sunny South FL doesn't mean we have to miss all the winter fun.

We still sit around a fire, enjoy hot cocoa and eat smores. We just do it in our tank tops, flip flops and pool side :-)

Oh! I'm sorry is that mean???

I must warn you - if you think that was mean you may not want to check out the next picture...

My sweet Molly thinks her cocoa is "Good To The Last Drop!"

Not-So-Clean Family Fun...

Tonight after dinner the kids suggested we have another pie eating contest - after all it was SO much fun at our party on Saturday.

Since we had all the fixin's we gladly obliged.

These crazy kids are SO MUCH FUN!!!

Just look...

Garcia's First Annual Fall Fun Day

Halloween has never really been one of my favorite Holiday's. I just don't have an appreciation for the element that tends to surround that evening.

I do however enjoy a good time of fellowship and spending time with new and old friends. And I do like to see my kids and all kids have a really good time in a SAFE and HEALTHY enviroment.

So this year (by the prompting of the Holy Spirit) Brian and I hosted what we hope will be an annual "Fall Fun Day".

We had food - oh so much food, a bounce house, a donut eating contest, a pie eating contest, we had pumpkin carving, pool games, water bolloon dodge ball, bobbing for apples, face painting. We even went on a scavenger hunt. It was wonderful a time!

Take a look...
