Life is truly like a box of unlabeled chocolates- you really never know what you are gonna get....
This week has given me a wake up call to remember God is in control.
It is so hard sometimes to just sit back and trust God and His plan. I often wonder why? Why is this happening? Is this a bad dream? How is this good? It is so challenging to allow yourself to not only think His plan is always good but to KNOW and to BELIEVE His plan is the BEST plan.
I am just so grateful to have the most amazing support group consisting of my hubby, my family, and my friends.
God is good.

Happy 4th of July
We took Caders swimming in a BIG pool today.
It was a lot of trial and error on the floats, but we finally found one he liked!
Our friends we met down here invited us over for a lovely day of swimming and grilling.
Happy First 4th of July to my baby!

Random Pics- June 2009
Here are some pics from the past month since I have been such a bad blogger!
Colorado Springs with Aunt Cathy and Uncle Bruce
Haircut- when you have a hubby who only believes in "high and tight" your son could never have LONG hair!
Playtime- just having fun!
Girls and Kalvin (I think they think we have forgotten them)
Vegas- celebrating my 30th! Cade wasn't there due to too much "adult" activity!

Little Fishy!
Today was little Cader Bob's 1st pool experience.
It was a little emotional for me since I couldn't be there but my AMAZING daycare sent me a pic!
And as you can see, he is checking out all the senoritas.
He is the only boy in his class so I am sure he enjoyed all of them in their bikinis!

Busy Busy Busy
The Langford Household has been SUPER busy!!!
Colby and I left April 30th for Cabo. It was a stressful moment due to the whole Swine Flu joke and leaving Cade for the first time, but it ended up being a perfect, needed, restful vacation.
We stayed in an awesome HUGE house, ate great food, danced at Cabo Wabo (worse tequila ever), rented a private catamaran, saw whales and sea lions in the ocean, had a private chef come to our house, went to a beach bar, had sushi on the beach, and didn't get SWINE FLU (go figure)!
When we got back, we headed to Lubbock 2 days later for Colby's sister's graduation from Tech, but I still was singing the "Eyes of Texas"! We are so proud of Alicia, we know she has an amazing future ahead of her, we can't wait to see what God has in store! Here's what Cade thought of the whole thing:
Then today was the best day I've had in a long time. Yes, it's Mother's Day and I love being a mother, but the best part of it was Cade was dedicated to the Lord today. It was a neat experience for us. We pray Cade has amazing love for Him and relationship with Him!

Happy Birthday and Teeth but No Pics
Colby's birthday was Thursday April 16. He turned a whopping 32!
We went to an amazing dinner on Friday night at a cool steak house here called Lansky and Brats.
Well here's the story:
Colby has never had Kobe beef. I encouraged him he should at least try it. When I ate meat, it was the BEST in my opinion. So he got it, and yes, he agreed with me, it was out of this world. So we continued enjoying the meal, which was on the same line as Morton's, in other words, AMAZING!!!
Then I got the bill..... The prices listed on everything were completely reasonable for a steak house, and actually a little lower than normal. But I saw the total and gasped, yes gasped. Colby's amazing Kobe steak was $160, yes people ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY DOLLARS!!!! The menu listed Kobe at "market price". WOW the market is proud of its Japanese Kobe beef!!!
We laughed and laughed and laughed. He's only allowed a roll and water at each outing for the next month to make up for his $160 dollar steak!!!
And when we got home, I noticed something cool, Cade had a tooth sticking out, and the other one is right there under the gum tissue. I knew he was teething because he chewed on everything, but I was expecting fever and tantrums, which never happened. I guess he knows I am a dentist and I would take care of him.
So yes, I am going to go buy a finger brush this week, and teeth brushing will begin.
Poor kid doesn't stand a chance!!!
