Bay Weekend

June 23, 2010

We finally got away. After months and months on DT working and working and working, we’ve finally took a small weekend trip to the bay. I can only tell you how great it felt to set foot out of the car and smell the salty, breezy, air of Carancahua bay. We had beautiful weather, though [...]

In a funk

April 1, 2010

I am in a funk….. I don’t want to do taxes, I don’t want to cook, I don’t want to blog, well not like I use to anyways. And if you’ve read my blog for any amount of time this is serious people, I normally love to cook, and blog. Taxes well that’s another story. [...]

“Cow” boy Trucker

February 17, 2010

DT was called to duty of loving son last weekend, when a cow of his dad’s had escaped from his pasture into a neighboring pasture and his Dad needed help getting her back in. DT wasn’t very excited about this endeavor. I mean have you ever tried to “lead” a cow anywhere? Its not the [...]

Giant Water Bug

November 11, 2009

Duck Hunters

November 2, 2009

The boys had a great time for Halloween this year. They went as duck hunters, ducks, face paint and all. We went trick or treating to a few houses, but the boys had fun, and mostly fun running around and loved being chased. DT even joined in on the fun, except he had a slight [...]

Boys and their Toys

October 14, 2009

Each time DT gets home from hauling, the boys get so excited! They scream and squeal, and jump and call Daddy Daddy Daddy, Truck, vroom, vroom, ride. So Daddy meets us at the door and gladly takes the boys to sit and play in the truck These pictures don’t do justice to how excited and [...]

Wii

Last week we drove up to the lovely Texas Hill country to visit some family and friends. We had a great time and the boys had a blast playing with their cousins. Like little Jack he is 2 1/2 and a super cute cuddle bug! They had a blast playing outside while Maw-Maw pulled them [...]

Grease Monkeys

September 23, 2009

One of the pitfalls of being a Trucker’s son, is that you get to do all of daddy’s grunt truck work. Like greasing Daddy’s tires It’s really hard messy work, with lots of supervision from Bubba and Skeeter. but one thing is for sure we love it! Even when we squeeze in between the tires [...]

A good friend of mine and fellow mother of twins Dory makes beautiful cookie and cookie bouquets. So for DT’s birthday I decided to have some trucks made. She did a great job, so much detail and they taste excellent soft and buttery with a hint of almond, yum. DT was so surprised he really [...]

Howdy, y’all! Welcome to my blog world. I am Sweet Pea, a 20-something Texas native and a newlywed…well, almost. We wed May 2006. Shortly after we were blessed with identical twins boys born November 2007.

My husband, whom I lovingly call Double Trouble (DT), owns and operates a trucking company, and we use our CB handles as our names here.

I however recently converted from a working mom to a stay-at-home mom. I love the new challenges that it brings and enjoy sharing my triumphs, messes, and adventures with you. I hope you enjoy reading about our busy lives with babies, cooking, gardening, trucking, and bargain shopping.
