Missing Daddy

Travis left last Friday morning. So it's been a bit pitiful around here, but luckily I have managed to keep the kids busy! Friday we took my dad to get his new iphone 4 then we came home and had some grilled cheese sandwiches and mac n cheese! Then Saturday Morning my dad took Tanner to Lowes to do a kids work shop where he got to build Monster Trucks. Tanner had SO much fun! He talked about it all day he got an apron, googles, and a patch to put on his apron! They do this every other Saturday so I believe I see more of these going on Tanner's future! Then the kids went to spend the night with Tatem's friends Bailey. I really am lucky that Tatem has great friends where they invite Tanner to tag along!! The kids got to go swimming at the Bric (the new Rec Center in Burleson). I went to my brother installation meeting for the Masonic Lodge he was installed as Worshful Master. I came home and was in bed asleep by 10:15 and didn't wake up til 9:30 WOW, That Never Happens!! The kids came home Sunday well Tanner came home Sunday, Tatem came home to get new clothes to stay another night with Bailey! So Sunday we went to container store, wal mart and the pool store! That night I decided to go get Tatem and Bailey and took all the kids to see TOY STORY 3!! Movie was AWESOME and watching Tanner watch it EVEN BETTER... At the beginning of the movie he YELLS OUT MAMA, UHHH ANDY AND MOLLY GOT BIG!!!! And then at the end he YELLS OUT "What Andy Can Drive? That's Crazy!! So glad the people next to us thought it was funny.. heheeee..

Although, I managed to keep the kids busy we are missing Travis like crazy.. I am glad Railroad picked up but at the same time we want to be together as a family! He has spent so much time away from home this past year we just want him with us! But sometimes life isn't fair and everything happens for a reason. Not a day goes by that me and the kids aren't thankful for what he does for US! I am very forunate that I married such a great man to take care of us! At least this time he is only 4.5 hours away so I am going to start planning our trip. I would really love to go spend a long weekend for his birthday.. Well Maybe!! I guess whats the hardest about him being gone is being the only adult and keeping it together for the kids AT ALL TIMES.. The kids always openly say they miss him and I always comment OH ME TOO!! Hopefully I handle everything right, just don't want to screw my kids up thats for SURE!!
