Breaking chairs... FUN!!

Hello! It's Julie. Today Brian came to eat lunch with me and Craig. But, the trip to my school wasn't ordinary. They met me at the door. We went to the Cafeteria. We sat. We ate. And all of a sudden... "Woah!" There goes the chair. Yep, he BROKE the chair. Then me and my Mom laughed our HEADS OFF!

Meeting Muscle Man!!

Hey! As you can tell by the title, I met muscle man last night! He's awesome! He's really caring. I like how he cares about everyone so deeply. I  also like that he respects everyone. He didn't even know me yet last night but he came right up to me first thing and hugged me last night!

An introduction... (by Julie)

Hey guys! It's Julie! That's right... I'm writing the second blog! I just want to clarify, I was the one who said "Let's start a blog". Just saying! Just FYI, I'm the funny one in the family. Alright let's get started, today I'll be telling you about me. So, My name is Julie (OBVIOUSLY) and I love gymnastics and dance more than anything! I also love this amazing app called Musical.ly! Musical.ly is where you record yourself lip syncing and doing fun hand motions and you post them for your friends (that you have allowed) to see. My favorite things are listed below.

Favorite color: teal/ turquoise

Favorite food: spaghetti

Favorite book: Umbrella Summer

Favorite movie: Avengers Age Of  Ultron

Favorite animal: zebra

Ok, lets get back to writing... another one of my favorite activities is to clean... JUST KIDDING! I really want to see my mom's face when she overviews it!! For real, I love to sing. When I'm older I really want to sing but, we'll see where that goes!! I sing practically everywhere... EXCEPT in front of people. Yep, I have STAGE FRIGHT! 

I just want to end by saying, I'm ten years old... and I'm in LOVE with coffee!! 

And here's my favorite drink from Starbucks!

BYE!!

I'm Blogging ... Again (and I have help!)

When the kids were ages one and three, I started a family blog.  I blogged about everything - the good, the bad and the ugly.  I lost the desire to blog (and cook for that matter) when they were about six and eight/nine.  However, about a year ago, the kids discovered that original blog and begged me to start blogging again.  They LOVED all the hilarious stories about times they had knocked over paper towel displays at HEB, thrown fits in the middle of church or locked babysitters out of the house.  But this time, they wanted to be a part of it personally; they wanted to help write.  I suspect you're going to hear more than you ever want to know about hair, makeup and an app called Musicly from Julie.  And I suspect you're going to hear more than any human should about Clash of Clans, Madden 16 and Mindcraft from Craig.  However, regardless of what they're sharing - the memories will be precious.  Ten years from now when they're grown and gone, I'll look back on these intentional memories and be glad they blogged with me.
