so Lula turned 5

and Mel and I crafted and constructed her an apron of which we are so proud we can't help but post pictures on the interwebs for all to see.

I (may) get to meet Dirk!

In case you were wondering or have been living under a rock, I am a HUGE Dallas Mavericks fan-especially my boy Dirk. Josh and I are gong to the game against the Jazz on February 5th (a day after my birthday). I wrote Mark Cuban (owner of the Mavs) and he will have two passes waiting for me (so I can take Josh with me) so we can meet the team and get pictures and autographs. I am so hoping that Dirk will take a picture with me-and Josh too! My children have told me that I have to contain myself because I was so excited with the prospect of meeting the Mavs. Aren't you jealous?!

there are no pictures with all 7 kids together?
