(: Dune Buggy Days :)

 

 "This is the day the LORD has made;

let us rejoice and be glad in it."

Psalm 118:24

I knew it!!!

I knew that I was going to miss eating

lunch with these two everyday....................

Even if they liked sitting up at the bar

without mommy sometimes;)

Thank Goodness I still have this

little love bug as my lunch

date each day!!!!!!!!

"Sometimes", said Pooh,

"the smallest things take up the

most room in your heart."

My Dream...

Last night, I had the most real dream. 

Travis, Garrett and Troy were all over at Lynna's.

Travis was sitting in his recliner,

and I had just come into the room.

Troy and Garrett told me to look over at

Travis.  He had the biggest grin on his face. 

Then they told me to notice how he

didn't have his Dynavox or his letters out.

 All of the sudden,

in his REAL voice............

I hear this, "Hey"...and then Trav's

laughter...his real LIVE laughter.

Travis.Could.Talk.

The dream was so real and I didn't

want it to end.  I could not wait to

call Lynna and tell her, but I didn't

want to stop talking with Travis.

I can't even recall what all he was 

saying...it was just that he was talking

in his voice that I haven't heard in

almost fifteen months.

He was so Travis. 

  I woke up thinking how I still

couldn't wait to call Lynna.......

:(

This dream recharged me and I immediately

knew I just need to pray that much

harder and BELIEVE despite

what we are told and despite

how hard Travis is working to talk

and eat ~ with no results.

Through the course of the day,

I couldn't fight back the tears though.

The longing and the sadness just

set in and I truly thought

my heart was going to burst.

I desperately want Travis to

talk again.  And eat again.

And walk again.

And be himself again.

I.LONG.FOR.IT.FOR.HIM.

and selfishly for me, too. 

Jesus said to him,
"If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes."

Mark 9:23

Maybe this dream was a sign from God

for me to believe more...

I don't know.

But I do know that I'm going to

take it as that, and

remind myself how very THANKFUL

I am that Travis IS here with us...

talking or not talking

and allow my faith and my belief

to be recharged. 

MY BOLD PRAYERS ARE

RENEWED TODAY!!!

I love you, Travis:)

And I hope we can "talk" again

really soon...

College Station, Texas

May God Bless Texas.

May God Bless Texas A&M.

AND, most of all....

May God bless my Aggie BOYS!!!

We have been taking Walker's picture just like

this in front of Kyle Field for several

years now.  Hard to believe I have to use

the word "SEVERAL"!!!!!!!!!! ;(

But thank Goodness we are getting to

start all over with our newest little Aggie boy!!!

I bet it won't seem like too long

until we have "several" of this guy

in front of Kyle Field, too!  ;(

Hudson at 18 months...

Walker is almost nine in these pictures. 

Hard to believe...NINE years of loving some

Texas A&M Aggies that's FOR SURE!!!

Handsome like his Daddy.

Die hard Aggie like his Daddy.
With Jr. following in their footsteps;))) 

Sister?  Not so sure.

I'm thinking she just might be "undecided"...

perhaps mommy's Baylor roots

are causing her to sway.  I'm sure

 the Aggie blood will prevail though!  ha ha!

We always have a good time on

our Aggie Land visits...and according to

Daddy, the sky is the limit

when we visit the bookstore!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hudson fits in quite well

in College Station;)

Walker says that he bleeds maroon...

and I really think he does!!!

LOVE me some tight fittin' Aggie garb

on my man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I pray Walker & Hudson really do get to

walk all over this campus one

day as Texas A&M students!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And Haddie...well, she can go to

A&M or Baylor! ;)))

Kidding, Daddy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A&M allllllllllllll the way!

In all honesty, Baylor really does

hold a big chunk of my heart!

Those four years spent there are just

incomparable to any other time in my

life...I had SO much fun and

met my very, very best friends (the NaNa's)

 that I will keep forever.  It was just

four truly special years in my life.

BUT....................there IS something

about Texas A&M....just that

unspeakable something. 

Or maybe it's just the fact that I

LOVE me some good 'ole boys.....

and you can't find better good 'ole

boys than at Texas A&M.

I KNOW.....

because I got the very BEST one there is!!!
