Another busy week in the life of the Collins' family. Houston is doing great with his medication and his stomach issues. Praise the Lord! Thank you everyone for your prayers. Friday, the kids were out of school and teachers got a much needed break. We had a short meeting and had the opportunity to finish up paperwork and work in our classrooms. Friday night Houston and I went to watch the Briarcrest High school football game while Tim worked the parking lot. I got some yummy BBQ nachos and after the game, we headed home to bed. Saturday we ran errands, went shopping, and took Houston to Build a Bear for doing so good in school so far and for going to the bathroom almost daily this past week. There was one day he couldn't go and I have got to try and get him an appt with a specialist. Anyway, he chose a puppy dog and picked out her a soccer outfit to wear, since he is in soccer. This is his first sport other than horse shows. He was really upset when we found out him and Abbi would not be on the same team. They got split and when we tried to work it out, Abbi couldn't practice on his night due to dance. So he gets this dog and decides to name it Rosebud, like the dog on Air Buddies. He loves that movie so now we have a girl dog that plays soccer named RoseBud.
Saturday night we went to the Redbirds game. This is the last weekend they are playing so we decided to take advantage of it and make it a night. It was a double game due to a previous rain out, so we left after the first game and headed to the Peabody to check out the ducks. Houston misses his ducks and wanted to check em out. We went on the skyway and hung out for a bit. We walked around downtown for a while then headed home. On the way to our car, we almost witnessed 2 car accidents. People were squealing tires and cutting others off and one child almost got hit when some car went on the curb right in front of the ball field. Guys were screaming trying to get into the luxury car rental place and we decided it would be best to hit the road.
Today we went to church and heard a fabulous message about Heaven. Gosh I can't wait to get there!
Enjoy the pictures from our night out last night and have a safe and happy Labor day!
