<br />I am entering a contest over on another blog: wearethatfamily.com Above is my entry. I am so super excited! I usually do not even take time to enter contests, but this one has an AWESOME prize. SO awesome, it has me updating my blog after 2 years :)
<br />Prize is a brand new TEMPUR®-Contour Signature and the TEMPUR Advanced Ergo System®. Matt and I were given a king size mattress 8 years ago when I was pregnant. We were SO thrilled! The second night we had it, I was huge pregnant and dog-sitting a great dane. In the night I felt something very warm in the bed. I slowly woke up and realized the GREAT DANE had peed ALL over the brand new bed :( Well. That was the the beginning of a long, abused life for that mattress. Now 3 kids later, 2 adults turning 30, and pain in our backs. IT IS TIME! I am praying and hoping we can win this baby!!
<br />If we win, I may even get back to blogging regularly! ha!

I am working on a longer blog about our actual move and Houston purpose. But for now here are some Halloween pics.<br /><br /><br />The night before Halloween, we met at a friends house for some cute pictures of kids in costumes. Then headed over to a Fall Festival at Maddox's preschool. I usually do not like big events, with lots of chaos and germs...but this one was lots of fun. Probably, just having Matt with me made all the difference. Sometimes it is hard taking the kids to things like that, alone. It made for a great family night! They had all the typical church festivals have, but I really loved how creative the Truck or treat area was. Very cute!<br /><br />Halloween day was very busy filled with running errands most of the day. Matt was leaving that night around 7 for a 2 week tour with the Robbie Seay Band, Bethany Dillon, & Caleb & Will Franklin Chapman!<br />At 6, I got kids dressed and Matt packed up and we parted ways :(<br />The kids and I wandered the neighborhood. Maddox was so funny, He kept saying things like " We don't need all this candy, it's just too much sugar for us"<br />I missed Matt, of course, but really had a fun night with the kids.<br />But man...the next day...WOW! We went to church, but after my kids were SO crazy! I think with the candy, time change, and Matt leaving, they were just an emotional mess. It was a very rough night and I think they were in bed by 7:30! They have mellowed out lots since then, and since the candy got put away :)<br />Adisen was Dorothy. Matt's mom made the dress for us! Maddox had planned to be Batman. But at the last minute decided on Spiderman. Thankfully, we have a good stash of dress-up clothes! It worked out great because Maddox's friend Ezra was Batman. So, they were some very adorable super heros! Maddox didn't like to wear his mask because it kept falling over his eyesThe Outlaw Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18251045958775363093noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7586105630558126506.post-90889501362597994392009-11-02T23:10:00.002-06:002009-11-02T23:15:33.945-06:00No excuses.I just gave up :)<br />I think when we first moved here, I didn't want to blog because I didn't want anyone to know how crappy I felt. Then I just kept putting it off because I can not put the time into it to make it look as awesome as many blogs I read. But again. No excuses. I'm just going to try it again...slowly. Cute or not! <br />Where do you start once you haven't blogged in 8 months? I will try and not focus on what I haven't blog about. I will try to move forward, with maybe a few random moments from the past few months.<br />Here we go :)The Outlaw Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18251045958775363093noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7586105630558126506.post-47141371943810079032009-02-22T22:49:00.000-06:002009-02-22T22:51:14.479-06:00Wow...Time for an update indeed!

I'm not really sure how. Nor have I seen some significant evidence today. But the message I heard yesterday is still being spoken in my mind and heart. How could you have sat in Wyatt Baptist Church yesterday and NOT been changed?!?<br />I WILL NOT just walk away from yesterday and just say "that was nice" "that was a great service" "how amazing"........I want to walk away completely different. How can I not forget this feeling of urgency to LOVE and to LIVE?? <br />How was Jill so graceful in all she did?<br />I know the same God that Jill knew......and I love Him. But not like Jill did. But I want to. I WILL be changed. I feel like my heart has been completely gutted out. It is painful, yet I feel God's hand, so it's comforting. <br /><br />I will write more later. My mind is so tired and my heart still very broken.

She is such a joy and fun burst of energy in our life! She really enjoys playing and pretending with her family and friends. She enjoys going to school 2 days a week and dance classes every Tuesday night. Adisen is a natural musician and talks of being "a rockin star" She has always had an awesome singing voice. Matt and I are were so surprised how gifted she is with music already. She loves to talk about God and his creation. She is the BEST big sister to her brother Maddox. We are constantly told how smart he is and I know it has everything to do with all that Adisen teaches him. Adisen loves to draw and write things. We are so proud of her!! She spent her day at school, with homemade cupcakes in tow! I hope she knows how truly loved she is!! Her is a funny story about me picking her up today :)<br /><br />SO....I thought that I would take all the princess helium balloons(from her party) with me to pick her up. I know she already saw them, but I thought it would make her feel special if I brought them to her school to get her. WELL...I was running a few minutes late and completely forgot to grabbed them when i got out of the car. ( who doesn't notice giant balloons blocking their view right?) Anyways, I forgot them and ran in to get the kids. Well, when we came back out to the car my hands were loaded down! 2 backpacks, 2 lunch boxes, tons of crafts, and the empty cupcake box. So, I opened the passenger door to unload all of the items....forgetting about the balloons. As soon as the door opened...off went the balloons in the wind!!!!!<br />CAN YOU BELIEVE IT? What was meant to be a sweet gesture, ended as a cruel joke :( Adisen was already exhausted and having some allergy issues, so her favorite princess balloons flying away, pushed her over. She started crying and yelling "who left my balloons in the car!" So sad!! My quick wit kicked in and I said (as the balloons were still in view) "HURRY make a wish!!! That's what you do on your real birthday, release your balloons and make a wish!!!" Thru her tears, she said "I wish my balloons would come back." :(<br /><br />I didn't know weather to laugh or cry. I was sad to see her so sad, but couldn't help but laugh at the irony of it all.The Outlaw Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18251045958775363093noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7586105630558126506.post-9244813381119108332008-10-13T18:38:00.000-05:002008-10-13T18:47:58.417-05:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEib9AW-K-xBfywh40NJDwgarUbz13UsoMY47L-92WImAownzgCPUydPNBZc4CXE_mSMxGWb-LjxmWJWpI9SUScUhFuYTBvHZ8okO8vAYShCExf_jpc5HvS_zzGvva4qDjay5R8THbf8IA/s1600-h/100_3481.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer;

Obviously, I have a hard time updating my blog. Once a certain amount of time passes, it seems almost impossible to blog. I'm sure everyone has given up reading anything about Boston part 2. haha. Maybe some other day!<br /><br />For now, we will just pick up at the present :)<br /><br /><br /><br />Matt is working on the road this week with The Robbie Seay Band. We miss him!! <br />The kids and I had a fantastic weekend!! Adisen really had a birthday party weekend. It started Friday and went until today! What a lucky girl!!<br />Friday began with our friends from the Little Rock area making the 3 hour drive to spend the weekend with us. I am so thankful for the house we live in. We were able to accommodate everyone, and I would even say everyone was very comfortable! In total, we had 5 of us moms, and then the 10 little ones between us. I don't think I ever got a picture of the kids going to bed. They were so cute! Saturday night all 10 kids were asleep before 9!! It was amazing, because it then gave us girls time to relax and talk. I am so thankful for my friends!!! It really was a special weekend. Adisen made me cry last night. As she was falling asleep, she kept saying "thank you so much getting my friends here. it was the best days ever!!" You could not believe how well all 10 of them behaved all weekend. With kids everywhere, all the time and NO NAPS, they were still awesome!! Saturday is was unceasingly warm, but it still made for a nice day at the pumpkin patch. We had a picnic, rode a hay ride, then picked out pumpkins! Then we came home painted our pumpkins, had a water balloon fight, and hours of outside fun. They ate dinner on the deck, then we did baths in 2 kids at a time. Our bathtub has never seen that kind of action. They were DIRTY!!!! They were then off to bed, to rest and get ready for the party the next day. We go to church on Saturday night usually, so our Sundays are free. So, Adisen's official party was Sunday afternoon. We enjoyed pizza, cake, ice cream, and a giant inflatable jumper! It was such a great fun time with friends...and plus we were able to celebrate our special girl Adisen!<br />Adisen went to mothers day out today, with homemade cupcakes in tow. She had a great day there too, celebrating with her friends there. She is absolutely exhausted...borderline sick from the fun filled past 4 days. We will surely rest all day tomorrow. Here are some pictures from the good times!! I probably won't share all that I would like to because I know several of my friends feel weird about their childrens pics being online somewhere. I know we all 5 had our cameras going, and I am hoping they have some great pics too. I found myself so busy trying to be a mom and a hostess, so the camera was always an after thought.The Outlaw Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18251045958775363093noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7586105630558126506.post-52385177586298393662008-08-17T22:08:00.001-05:002008-08-17T22:10:43.320-05:00Introducing the newest Johnson Family Addition...<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgK7sxPsAiX_KFQzXUuC5rHg61mHzP_uEayKJqGGmBK924LcIX7cUrad3ZatIN4dltZnJonFqO5F1lLgTBe7kYBNLHZVQsyW99DQddq-46NEwTFbmUWIbhyphenhyphen44ncTSuZJQVp4v3DSyUMzw/s1600-h/CIMG2550.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgK7sxPsAiX_KFQzXUuC5rHg61mHzP_uEayKJqGGmBK924LcIX7cUrad3ZatIN4dltZnJonFqO5F1lLgTBe7kYBNLHZVQsyW99DQddq-46NEwTFbmUWIbhyphenhyphen44ncTSuZJQVp4v3DSyUMzw/s320/CIMG2550.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5235689664180022354" /></a><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;"><br />I can not tell you what a joy it is to tell you about this exciting news. My brother Andy and his adorable wife Lisa are now the proud and awesome parents of little Liam. He is 5 months old and just a little doll. He joined our family this past Friday night. I can hardly wait to meet him face to face and give those sweet cheeks a kiss. They live in Washington, so we are planning a family get together to meet this cutie! Adisen, Maddox, and I "met" Liam last night with our web cams. He didn't seem very impressed with us, as he began to cry when he saw us :) But I am just hoping it was because he was very sleepy. We are so thankful and give all the glory to God for the great things HE has done!! We love you Liam and look forward to watching you grow. Your parents are so good, so faithful, so loving, and so fun. Get ready, little buddy, you are going to have a great life!!<br /><br />you can go here to check out a few cute pics....<br /><br />http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=49701&l=b6102&id=602257325</span>The Outlaw Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18251045958775363093noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7586105630558126506.post-55359024116354756482008-08-17T21:10:00.000-05:002008-08-17T21:50:17.786-05:00Boston Ramblings...Well, I can't put it off any longer!! I don't know why I haven't gone for a visit sooner!! Lori and J have lived there for 2 years and I just made my way up. It was A BLAST!! I am a better person for knowing them. If you want to hear stories of the miracles God still works today, sit and talk with Lori. Or if you are just need a good, pure laugh, sit and visit with this awesome couple. I love you two and consider myself privileged to know you. You two are amazing!!!<br /> So here is the simplest way to give a run down of my time there....<br /><br />Sunday: I fly in to Boston around noon. The only sleep I had was whatever I got on my 4 hour flight. My 10 year reunion was the night before and after I cleaned that up and packed...it was time to catch my 530 am flight. AH! This was a nice day just relaxing with L and J. We got some yummy pizza and caught up on a few things. I was starting to feel disoriented from lack of sleep, so I got to bed early. I was so glad to be there.<br /><br /> Monday: Oh this day!! Once we got around, J, Lori and I made it into the city for lunchtime. After driving around in circles for awhile, we finally "happened" Matt's hotel. So, we grabbed Matt and Kory and walked a few blocks to grab some great Mexican food. I was already loving this day. I was completely surrounded by some of my greatest friends that I LOVE SO MUCH. After lunch, all 5 of us loaded up for a city tour. It was a rainy day, so that's why we opted for the car ride. I can not tell you how much I really enjoyed the few hours we drove ( many blocks over and over and over) thru the city. I laughed so much and loved every second. Thank God that he protected us, because although I was laughing, I was a little nervous about a few traffic maneuvers we did. Later that night we had a fun dinner and walk around the city. I stayed with Matt that night at the Hyatt. We really had a good time hanging out with the kids. I feel so different without the kids. I miss them SO, but it is so rejuvenating to be alone and "free". <br /><br />Tuesday: I enjoyed a nice, rainy walk early this morning. I love city life. (not the driving part) I felt like I was in a dream. I walked several blocks, twirling my umbrella, taking it all in. I felt like I was in slow motion as the world around me rushed past, everyone with a place to be. It was peaceful and something I rarely do anymore, unless I'm pushing 75 extra pounds around in a stroller!<br />Lori picked me up around noon, while Matt headed off to work. Lori and I wandered around with not a care in the world. It was fun, until around 530 and I realized not only did we need to leave at 6 to make it to the show....but I hadn't washed Matt's laundry like I had promised :\<br />SO, I crammed it all in and washed it...but didn't really have time to dry it. I felt and still do feel bad about it. I loaded the car up with semi-damp clothes and attempted to air dry them on the way.(via windows down and J's fast driving) It was all good til the rain started :)<br />The show was awesome. It was Hana Pestle, Blues Traveler, Collective Soul, and LIVE. I love to watch Matt work. He knows so much and is so good at it. The guys in LIVE absolutely love him and it makes me proud :) I hope J and L enjoyed the show. It is fun to sit on the stage and be able to watch the crowd. This crowd was the best!<br />After the show, we squeezed the extra water out of Matt's laundry and called it a night! I was sad to tell him by, by knew it was only a few days before I'd see him again. Thanks to Kory for hanging out with us. He always makes me laugh :)<br /><br /><br />This is getting really long, so I think I will finish it up tomorrow...<br />to be continued.. here are a few pics to leave you with.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiH4lox37VWeq3jhBbOq4ydm7wMLlj54mNr__RAauglk68Ah66IPwVwGu_asdMk2_U-FEnJ89lwWOyarBKeGYC-QLVfM_nQRWeDF_c1m2mC_HnNGVN3Q0liVVYTv93OH3Yyc33HCyBH7Q/s1600-h/100_3149.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiH4lox37VWeq3jhBbOq4ydm7wMLlj54mNr__RAauglk68Ah66IPwVwGu_asdMk2_U-FEnJ89lwWOyarBKeGYC-QLVfM_nQRWeDF_c1m2mC_HnNGVN3Q0liVVYTv93OH3Yyc33HCyBH7Q/s320/100_3149.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5235684069752487154" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMFCKCvLKkCMHgLJiPBwunqw6dlLiCMWutLW_MlgcOJ_uzms0XuMK8n_Ju36ipkeGAjS4qxI8_Hoy31F1pRabFsV-Q8PUPMhCRDNHfQ4KCQ1A_QLaL33L6TdjQSwEH1gCZN7REarFLPA/s1600-h/100_3165.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMFCKCvLKkCMHgLJiPBwunqw6dlLiCMWutLW_MlgcOJ_uzms0XuMK8n_Ju36ipkeGAjS4qxI8_Hoy31F1pRabFsV-Q8PUPMhCRDNHfQ4KCQ1A_QLaL33L6TdjQSwEH1gCZN7REarFLPA/s320/100_3165.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5235684074205250322" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKgXmfgP9jMxfoGURlxHwM9Ove8EZAKpTvh8ZUolG3agWLG91EBlG4PjlhSM_znVX4a07L7CxAGxTW3oVs7fV1P65D4MTwjqu-zhvuoL0JsJbzaWXAil8xGIeAu1BnKzi76zkC_4_D8A/s1600-h/100_3171.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKgXmfgP9jMxfoGURlxHwM9Ove8EZAKpTvh8ZUolG3agWLG91EBlG4PjlhSM_znVX4a07L7CxAGxTW3oVs7fV1P65D4MTwjqu-zhvuoL0JsJbzaWXAil8xGIeAu1BnKzi76zkC_4_D8A/s320/100_3171.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5235684077248350386" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiO2hL8_p_cguSe7OYb5em0nV4ck0uTDWPgEGkx0cF4hjhLUVPYQHQGpKzTrGjseOj-p8149iRA1DV2wvV1pPKIO5E4jUuKlp5xrjXzO51sh51sgnXkdK9P6V4xFQj5qCdl4ltTaZcXcg/s1600-h/100_3142.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiO2hL8_p_cguSe7OYb5em0nV4ck0uTDWPgEGkx0cF4hjhLUVPYQHQGpKzTrGjseOj-p8149iRA1DV2wvV1pPKIO5E4jUuKlp5xrjXzO51sh51sgnXkdK9P6V4xFQj5qCdl4ltTaZcXcg/s320/100_3142.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5235684085581375826" /></a>The Outlaw Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18251045958775363093noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7586105630558126506.post-8970946106382750652008-08-14T19:38:00.000-05:002008-08-14T19:40:37.807-05:00Back from Boston :(Normally, I am so excited to return home.

I am sad it ended so soon :(The Outlaw Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18251045958775363093noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7586105630558126506.post-32832073123532594192008-08-04T17:39:00.000-05:002008-08-05T01:24:49.352-05:00Busy times.<span class="Apple-style-span" style=""><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(153, 255, 153);">Thought I'd just drop by to say things are busy! I have been planning this week for months and knew it would be overwhelming, but a few unexpected things made for a little more stress. But we are making it! </span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=""><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(153, 255, 153);">My 10 year high school reunion is this weekend. I'm in charge of decorations and this and that. I wanted to be a class officer in hs because I thought it was cool, not thinking that 10 years later, I'd be in a whirlwind of planning for a reunion. I am really excited, but sad Matt won't be there. So, after I help clean up sometime after midnight Saturday, I will head over to the airport in Little Rock to catch a 540am flight to Boston. There are some weeks, I hardly change out of my PJ's never mind even leave the house. Then other weeks, I try to do as much as you can squeeze into a week, minus sleep. haha </span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=""><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(153, 255, 153);">So the unexpected things we have had this week is......SICKNESS!</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=""><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(153, 255, 153);">Ugh! Poor Adisen had Broncitis 2 weeks ago, Matt pneumonia, then Maddox pneumonia also, back to Adisen with some crazy fever/headache virus. As for me, I managed to only have a mild cold. But taking care of sick kiddos is a job, 2 sick kids is tiring!</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=""><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(153, 255, 153);">Thankfully, Maddox is feeling better and finishes his 5 day antibiotic tomorrow! Matt is totally better! And Adisen is doing great!Doesn't it seem weird to have pneumonia in July? My kids are well because we canceled our weekend plans and stayed in the bed and watch movies. My plan of "staying busy until Matt comes home" kinda backfired. Here is a run down of the past 2 weeks. Went to Dallas for a week, OK for a night to see Matt, came home to a house full of company, went to Kansas City to see Matt, then spent a day wandering around there, came home to company again that stayed a week (FUN!!) They left Friday and we were expecting LOTS of company for 2 days the next morning. BUT at that point both kids were in the DR office with crazy high fevers, so that's where the resting came in. </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=""><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(153, 255, 153);"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=""><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(153, 255, 153);">WHOA! I know my mom is probably ashamed at my errors in writing, but it's easier to type and not concern myself with run on sentences and such! </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=""><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(153, 255, 153);">Also, about Boston... I was planning on surprising Matt for his birthday. He has a few days off on Boston on his birthday. The surprise was ruined, but I am still going. I am going to spend time with my childhood friend Lori. I am SO SO excited! I can not believe it, but I haven't seen her in 6 years!! The kids are staying in Fayetteville. Matts parents from Texas are coming up to hang out with them!</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=""><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(153, 255, 153);">Thanks for sticking with me. I think my phone has rang 5 times while I have tried to type this. So, gotta go keep getting things done!</span></span></div></div>The Outlaw Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18251045958775363093noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7586105630558126506.post-70032337258061058262008-07-29T00:11:00.000-05:002008-07-29T00:25:03.705-05:00Missing MattI was able to catch up with Matt for a few hours in Kansas City, MO this past SAturday. Amber and Madi went the kids and I. It was a fun weekend, even though it was busy and HOT. I will post pictures soon. My sisinlaw, niece, nephew and mom are here this week. WE are SO excited!! Anyway, I loved seeing Matt, but it made me miss him more. AND he is very sick. :( I think Matt has only been sick 2 or 3 times since we have been married 6 years!! He went to the dr and had a chest xray....again :(<div>So he has pneumonia and is hopefully on his way to being better. Pray for him though, because there isn't time for resting on a tour bus. I am sad I haven't been able to take care of him.</div>The Outlaw Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18251045958775363093noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7586105630558126506.post-44578242031915767282008-07-21T14:57:00.000-05:002008-07-21T15:02:19.324-05:00My Hubby :)Matt has his own blog. So go check it out, if you would like to get a full 360 view of the Outlaw family. He is in a different state everyday, so he tries to keep everyone updated with what is going on. He has some cool pics of his latest tattoos. You can see them at www.mattoutlaw.blogspot.com<div><br /></div><div>And for those of you that have already asked or wondered. I know he needs some pictures of me on his blog, BUT I am so self conscious of when I see pictures of me. In fact, there are very few. So I will try to work on that!<br /><div><br /></div><div><br /></div></div>The Outlaw Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18251045958775363093noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7586105630558126506.post-797976834601866602008-07-10T23:28:00.000-05:002008-07-10T23:55:18.996-05:00<object id="BLOG_video-FAILED" class="BLOG_video_class" width="320" height="266" contentid="FAILED"></object>The Outlaw Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18251045958775363093noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7586105630558126506.post-48208583801068758332008-07-10T23:16:00.000-05:002008-12-09T05:08:39.978-06:00Little Old, Little new<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjODNarw3lVy36P-0T8hjpBSr9diMXBkW7dTYAvbLwt1EI7H6z7gZN1nSwwDRGtfGoBigc5-YbE4ZLIay1Z9ndb0URnP91U-Kmb0j9kHLYIFsE5_pODDTNMa2mpjGcXfvfT26RebPGjlg/s1600-h/102_2956.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjODNarw3lVy36P-0T8hjpBSr9diMXBkW7dTYAvbLwt1EI7H6z7gZN1nSwwDRGtfGoBigc5-YbE4ZLIay1Z9ndb0URnP91U-Kmb0j9kHLYIFsE5_pODDTNMa2mpjGcXfvfT26RebPGjlg/s320/102_2956.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5221608089490712658" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRs1uNb1O7CDysGQN9qfPKIk_KTHwJB9hgsS3I1dpIQkWzKnUGJSVzXVacBp6bZsgvTuaMBpoTf2WS1z8By1TC1HRTbk2uqBZ8vEqaYwpaDEA-8g0Za5QP5GYKuFo58LKQH9tTH3q7Cg/s1600-h/102_2950.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRs1uNb1O7CDysGQN9qfPKIk_KTHwJB9hgsS3I1dpIQkWzKnUGJSVzXVacBp6bZsgvTuaMBpoTf2WS1z8By1TC1HRTbk2uqBZ8vEqaYwpaDEA-8g0Za5QP5GYKuFo58LKQH9tTH3q7Cg/s320/102_2950.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5221608098290730930" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEhuS56bh3RmBr66zUb0AIUZ4IZ6G8ECwmox5sOP9KL4vC4B4SirKiDUsqBvCctLpp8itqRfPqYqyCU_otfSg7wQBwsTHGyOVnDmOmOwVdnWshT3N_mn3Qj8qtroCMP9-SJmDX_8IBwQ/s1600-h/102_2944.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEhuS56bh3RmBr66zUb0AIUZ4IZ6G8ECwmox5sOP9KL4vC4B4SirKiDUsqBvCctLpp8itqRfPqYqyCU_otfSg7wQBwsTHGyOVnDmOmOwVdnWshT3N_mn3Qj8qtroCMP9-SJmDX_8IBwQ/s320/102_2944.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5221608102733301218" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhf5uup9HZQRQ_UlKh4xlJfTLXRey1CyRGSOSJFhSUxIWuWTWHDhd_4rYxfUFKUshtEb9cVtohVt9Bx30jFcKi6nykX9eGoCq3tbzBk51eSqaEWNH0CVY9EKFUlev7EjpIm-d38UAIJKQ/s1600-h/102_2958.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhf5uup9HZQRQ_UlKh4xlJfTLXRey1CyRGSOSJFhSUxIWuWTWHDhd_4rYxfUFKUshtEb9cVtohVt9Bx30jFcKi6nykX9eGoCq3tbzBk51eSqaEWNH0CVY9EKFUlev7EjpIm-d38UAIJKQ/s320/102_2958.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5221608106478730242" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDuCALh_jm3qpAursnz6mN6JwAVFDid65aAMV2yUDv39CHIDPlsrL2ycekruMIiajquRIlgtU_IZ8uCtFifx_MdYYaxVIxTuaWgkZT9-rrtt39wqXT65azSzVNC2SlTDdbcGMH82KYZA/s1600-h/102_2957.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDuCALh_jm3qpAursnz6mN6JwAVFDid65aAMV2yUDv39CHIDPlsrL2ycekruMIiajquRIlgtU_IZ8uCtFifx_MdYYaxVIxTuaWgkZT9-rrtt39wqXT65azSzVNC2SlTDdbcGMH82KYZA/s320/102_2957.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5221608120658632018" /></a><br />So today The Mo's (AMO & EMO) finished "Cowgirl/boy dance camp". I tried to take pictures today, but Maddox refused to wearing anything except his Cars shirt. I couldn't even get him to stop running around to get a good picture. I think the dance teacher had a few costumes left over from Princess camp, so today Adisen was a little of both. I am glad she had such a fun, sweet time. They learned a dance, took cute pictures, and did fun crafts. Adisen was even in yesterdays AR Democrat Newspaper! She is just a sweet girl. I can not believe how much she is growing up. She understands SO much and I have noticed a difference lately in how we communicate. Sometimes I feel like I am talking to a much older child.

You see what happens is a few days pass after I blog, and many things happen where I think "I should update that on the blog". BUT then too much happens and it is too overwhelming to me. So, I keep putting it off! </span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(153, 153, 153);"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;">Anyway, the biggest change right now is.... Through much prayer, we decided for Matt to quit his job at Guitar Center and work full time for LIVE (again) There are so many things I wish I could say (overwhelming AH) We see a much bigger picture than just the next few months he is with LIVE. In the fall, Matt will work on a regular basis for The Robbie </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;">Seay</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;"> Band. I can't tell you how excited we are about this opportunity. He has worked with them for several shows and has enjoyed it so much. They are awesome guys, living the love of Christ. We have loved every second we have lived in </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;">NWA</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;">, but we know that God has something else in store for the Outlaw family! We are excited (and a tiny bit nervous) about God working in our life right now. Change is coming :) Might not be completely comfortable, but we are ready! By that I mean, a move to Houston might be in the works. No offense to the Houston folks, but it might not be comfortable to me. It's hot and it's not really on the way to anywhere. So, it seems like people would be less likely to come see us. But if God leads...we will go.</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(153, 153, 153);"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;">Enough of that. I will let you know when we know!</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(153, 153, 153);"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(153, 153, 153);"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;">This blog will be full of randomness because I am so behind. Side note about Matt working for LIVE...he has been gone for 2 weeks and will not return until August 19 or so. Yes, it is tough!</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(153, 153, 153);"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;">Adisen</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;"> is dealing with it </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;">ok</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;">. She is able to discuss what she is feeling very easily. She draws </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;">alot</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;"> about being sad. But we talk and she understands why he is gone and what he is doing. Maddox now....just pray. He is really having a hard time with Matt being gone. I did not see this coming at all. I knew he would miss him, but he is extreme! Very angry, not able to express his thoughts, wetting the bed, and just having a bad attitude all around :( It is hard on me. It is hard to follow through with discipline and needed spankings with him because I know he is sad. But he still has unacceptable behavior that must be dealt with. We did have a GREAT week right before he left. He had already worked his last day at GC and spent the last week home with us. It was such a special time. He is such a great daddy!</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(153, 153, 153);"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(153, 153, 153);"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;">The kids and I are going to Texas for several days.

Several random, but some from a day where we met Matt for a nice picnic. There are also some from a VERY cold day at a drive thru zoo!

I spent days getting ready for our fun trip. I left Wed afternoon for Texas. Spent that night in Denton with my brother Jeremy and his adorable family. Then drove to Austin Thursday. I flew out Fri morning to where I am now...Washington :)</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192); font-family: georgia;">The kids are having fun in Texas. Adisen loves telling me about their daily events. Today she picked strawberries and went to a drive-threw zoo! MAddox seems to having a hard time. I expected this because the past few weeks, he followed me everywhere. Even when I took a shower, he would be sitting in the bathroom waiting for me. It makes me sad to think of him crying for me, but this trip is good for all of us.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192); font-family: georgia;">I have had a blast with Andy and Lisa. Today consisted of a morning 1 hour massage, shopping, and an evening dinner fund raiser. It was AWESOME!! It was for a foster care christian agency that partners with the state. It was absolutely life changing! The church should be responsible for these precious orphans. What a fantastic night that has really impacted me to do more for the thousands of sweet children who are in need of love, safety, and restoration. </span><br /><span style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192); font-family: georgia;">Tomorrow after church, we will catch the ferry over to Victoria Canada, to hang out with MAtt for the night. We will all return Monday. Matt and I will fly Tues night to Texas to get our little sweeties.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192); font-family: georgia;">I don't have any pics, but I just wanted to update on my wonderful time here in the beautiful Northwest!</span>The Outlaw Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18251045958775363093noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7586105630558126506.post-67385054160201600752008-04-08T13:37:00.000-05:002008-04-08T13:52:25.150-05:00Matt is super!<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(255, 153, 0);">Matt is going on the road for a few days to work for a band that I absolutely love!! I even have one of their songs as my ring on my cell phone.</span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(255, 153, 0);">The Robbie Seay Band is SO amazing. The latest album is SO inspiring. It is the one album I think everyone must hear. The words for songs on that cd are truly God- inspired and are life changing. Matt and I have truly been blessed by all of these songs. We love them ALL, but I think Love Wins, Song of Hope, Rise, and Shine Your Light on us are my top 4. </span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(255, 153, 0);">I could never describe to you how much the words of this music have provoked thoughts and pushed me toward God and loving people more. I just love it! It makes me want to go out and change the world in a super way.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(255, 153, 0);">So, pray for us this week while Matt is traveling with them and go buy the cd "Give Yourself Away" by the Robbie Seay Band :)</span></div>The Outlaw Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18251045958775363093noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7586105630558126506.post-30404714742743377372008-04-05T22:54:00.000-05:002008-04-05T23:04:57.678-05:00Seattle!!Moments ago, I booked a flight to Seattle. I am really excited!! Matt will be in Canada with LIVE in 3 weeks. He will be a few hours from Seattle. My brother and sisinlaw live outside of Seattle, WA. They have so many exciting things going on in their life. SO, I just wanted to run up there for a weekend and see them. It has been about 2 years, since my last visit to that area. Everyone should go at least once! So beautiful!!<div>Anyway, last night this idea came to mind and I am so thankful God let the plan work out so fast. Here is the plan...</div><div>Thursday April 24: drive from Fayetteville, AR to Austin, TX to drop the kiddos off at the in-laws.</div><div>Friday 25: Fly out of Austin (alone) to Seattle to hang out with Andy and Lisa :)</div><div>Sun 27: we will drive then take a ferry to Victoria, BC to meet Matt</div><div>Mon 28: drive back to Tacoma </div><div>Tues 29: fly out late that afternoon back to get kids </div><div> </div><div>The flight couldn't have been better!
