Well, we put our house on the market, and it sold Well, we put our house on the market, and it sold in 3 days. So after 5 1/2 years in this happy home, we’ll begin moving out this week.  #godisgood but #movingishard
We love our sweet girl. I’m not sure why anyone We love our sweet girl. I’m not sure why anyone as gregarious as Rebekah finds this “don’t talk to me” meme so hilarious (see my last post for pictures), as she is an amazing conversationalist and always has been.  I even thought about stitching a disclaimer on the back of the Christmas sweater (my gift to her) that read: “These dogs may be anti-social, but I love meeting new people, so introduce yourself!”  #strikeupaconversation
So a couple of months before Rebekah graduated fro So a couple of months before Rebekah graduated from nursing school, her sister/roommate Bethany came up with a plan that the whole family should memorialize her accomplishment with hand-crafted gifts featuring a meme that — for whatever reason — totally cracks Bekah up. Here’s the results of our labors ( minus the doggie-embellished flower pot Beth gave her early. I didn’t get a picture of that one). 
Next batch of photos, I’ll share Bekah’s reaction to the gifts. Spoiler: She loved them!.  #flandersfamilycreates
Mother’s Day 2022 — Enjoying dinner at Samuel Mother’s Day 2022 — Enjoying dinner at Samuel and Bekah’s house while they’re still in Tyler. They’ll be leaving in August for a job in San Antonio. We’re excited for them, but a little sad for us, as it’s been so nice having them close. ❤️
Celebrating our newest UTTyler graduate 👩‍🎓: We couldn’t be prouder of our tender-hearted Rebekah. She loves the LORD, cares deeply about others, and is going to make a fantastic nurse. Keep up the good work @flander.7 ❤️❤️  #classof22 #uttyler #nursingschool
I’m finally getting around to posting a few pics I’m finally getting around to posting a few pics from our family’s recent stay in Cleburne (with a day trip to the Fort Worth Zoo).  There are so many fun, free things to do in Cleburne! Our favorite? The free community showing of the at the @laylandmuseum of the classic film Charade (starring Audrey Hepburn and Cary Grant) with free popcorn, saltwater taffy, and bottled root beer provided by @trovatostreet. What a treat! We’re so glad our trip coincided with this monthly event.  #flandersfamilytravels
Dress for the career you want, they say. Judging Dress for the career you want, they say.  Judging by my grandson’s choice of clothes, he wants a career where he can fight fires, do surgery, and demonstrate his ninja skills — all at the same time. Oh, and also ride his bike to work.  For months now, he has been living in the same set of scrubs I stitched for his daddy at that age. They’re holding up pretty well!  #raidingthecostumecloset #thejoysofdressingup
