CLARIFICATION

I just wanted to clear something up from a previous post. Donny is NOT going into the acting business! It was just a joke! I guess I am a pretty good liar, but apparently I really got people thinking he is making the job change. So no, he is not co-starring with Tommy Lee Jones so don't be looking for it in theaters in 2009! :) Sorry for the mix up!
Donny is having a Lonesome Dove party with some guys in a couple weeks, and he had me photoshop him into the picture for the invitation. I just thought I'd share the laugh with all of you, but apparently I did a pretty good job!
Real Donny update: He IS losing his job in January for sure, and we don't really have another plan right now, so we would love prayer for direction at this point. I am thinking of upping my photography rates to $1000 a pop for a while, just until he gets settled somewhere else....okay just another joke! I better be more careful from now on!

My BIG girl!

She calls these her "pony chonys." Not sure where the term chonys came from, but I guess the Lundbergs call underwear chonys. So, she picked out My Little Pony chonys! Whatever works, I guess!

Her Big Girl bed!







Joren is such a big girl all of the sudden! She has decided to be potty trained, without much training from me and is sleeping in a big girl bed! This all happened a little too quick for me, but I guess she was ready. We had just sort of tossed the idea around about selling the crib cause we already had the bed in storage, so I posted it on Craigslist just to see what would happen, and that night she was sleeping in her new bed! Where did the time go? I know everyone says that, but really, she was just my little baby!

Donny's new job!!

We just wanted to update you all on Donny's job situation. As many of you know, Donny is most likely losing his job this January. So he decided to pursue a different line of work completely, and has gone into the acting industry. He quickly received a job offer to remake a western mini-series, perhaps you are familiar with "Lonesome Dove." He will be co-starring with Tommy Lee Jones; replacing Robert Duvall and playing his character Augustus McCrae. We are so excited about this opportunity; be looking for it in theatres Fall 2009!

Jeven's first day of school

Well, today was Jeven's first day of pre-school. He is going to Little Spartan Preschool, at Hillsboro High School, which is the exact same place I went! It was funny, I walked in and it still smelled EXACTLY the same...Now that I think about it, I don't know if that is a good thing, considering I went there over 20 years ago! Anyway, he loved every minute of it and I am excited for him. These aren't exactly the classic "first day of school" pictures I was going for, but it was just his mood. Donny and I were sitting in the orientation meeting last Friday, and Donny leaned over and said, "Can you believe we have a son in school and we are in a meeting about it??!" Where did the time go? It seems like just yesterday I was bringing home my little 6lb. baby from the hospital! Oddly enough, though, at the meeting, as everyone else may have been getting a little misty-eyed at the thought of their baby heading off into the real world, I was choked up, literally fighting back tears, not because Jeven isn't my little baby anymore, but because the teacher was having the sick talk with all of us; telling us how when one kid brings something, everyone else gets it. "It spreads like wildfire" was the exact phrase she used. What the heck is wrong with me?? I am more anxious about the bugs Jeven is going to bring home than the fact that he is such a big boy! Anyway, there is a prayer request if you need something to be praying for us about. Ok, that's it-Enjoy the photos!
