Bacak Halloween Pic

Here are the Bacak kiddos. I wish I had a pic of Rusty and I dressed up also. We wore costumes, but didn't even think about taking our own pictures. I wore an old SING costume,a doll. Rusty was a cowboy. We had our HOPE group over (all college students) at our house, and other friends (the Hendricks, who most of you have met, plus our youth minister, his wife, and new baby)over to trick-or-treat on our street. It was fun!

Fall Festivus Night

Halloween is one of my least favorite holidays.
robbie gripes at me for how much i gripe about it.
you would think i would like it because it is all about candy!
(and chris thinks i grew up eating grape nerds.
he's wrong. it was skittles and hot tamales and any candy bars we were supposed to sell for our church youth group fundraiser. thats a whole other story- i raised a lot of money for my youth group)
anyway, there are a lot of reasons i don't like halloween.
i don't particularly like the color the orange. and i really don't like it paired with black.
i don't like to be scared. i don't like scary movies or costumes. i don't like the gigantic inflatable jack o lanterns people put in their yards or the fact that i had to spend $15 on candy to feed all the kids in the neighborhood.
(i should start passing out coupons for a nearby dentist.)
with all my dislike, i do like dressing my kids up cute and then eating their candy after they go to bed!
elle is obviously a fairy-princess-butterfly of some kind...ethan is a (seasick) pirate and ezra is a naked indian.
(you are supposed to know that even though he is missing a costume)
we want to see pics of all the cousins on "fall festival" night!

Thank You!

Family: This is so completely rude, but because you are my family, I'm hoping you will give me grace. I haven't sent out thank yous for Justus' party yet. I just finished the mass mail-out for Em's thank yous, and I'm tired. Since we just had a family party for Justus, I am doing a blanket thank you to you guys. I know it's wrong, sorry! To be honest, I think I was so caught up and pre-occupied with having Kathleen there, I didn't write down the gifts as we opened them. Or if I did, I can't find it. I know roughly what y'all got him, and I truly appreciate it! Especially the cute clothes! But mostly, I want to REALLY thank you for being there for Kathleen's visit. It meant so much to me that you came. Kathleen kept commenting about how many people love Justus, and how many cousins he had to play with. These are things she was reminded she couldn't give him, and that made her feel good. So thanks for being there, and talking with her and praying for her. Don't stop, because I feel strongly that the Lord is working on her to bring her to salvation!
Love you all!

Emma learns to read!

You all know Emma's many talents. Animal noises. Travelling at the speed of light on all fours. Climbing trees. Catching any bug, no matter how fast or gross. Well, we have a new one...
READING! Yes, she read her first books today. Yesterday, I didn't know if I was getting anywhere in our reading lessons, and something awesome happenned today. She read words. Real words. She knows some sight words. I don't know, it's crazy! It's our third week of Kindergarten, and God has been so amazing already! She read three of her early reader books to us. (The Bob books, if any of you have them.)
This ranks up there with one of my proudest moments as a parent. It's like, giving birth, pottytraining, her coming to love Jesus, and now reading! It's awesome!

Seay Family Photos

We have really been wanting to get a new family picture taken.
But this is the best we could do...except we forgot to take ezra's picture
and we all aren't looking our best.
oh well, we'll try again soon!
enjoy!

I'm sitting here tonight contemplating the fact that my "baby" will start her senior year tomorrow. I've have raised two "babies" - Robbie was my first baby - it was a bit traumatic for me when he began the journey toward leaving home and growing up, but now... I'm doing this one more time and I have to admit that it is even harder. But I am excited for Jess and for what God has planned for her. She was an unexpected gift from the Lord and we have all had a hand in raising her and loving her - now we can be proud of the godly young woman she has become. We love you, Jess!

here are my thoughts

as some of you very well may know...magnolia school district, mostly high school, have been expierencing teacher misconduct in school...we have had 3 teachers arrested in the past 3 years for misconduct with students...here is some this you should probably read..

Our View: TEA official is right -- parents, and students willing to speak out, are still the best defense against teacher misconduct.

If recent cases involving alleged sexual misconduct by teachers have shown us anything, it's that the standard tool for protecting students -- rigorous background checks -- cannot predict the behavior of teachers with no criminal record.
Only increased awareness and heightened vigilance by everyone, from school officials to parents to students themselves, can prevent sexual misconduct by teachers or at least stop it once it occurs.
In the most recent incident, Lisa Minchew, a former Magnolia High School art teacher, was arrested recently on three counts of sexual assault of a child, stemming from three alleged sexual incidents with two boys between the ages of 14 and 16 that occurred in early July. She had no criminal record of sexual misconduct.
Minchew is just the latest teacher or school staff member to face sexual misconduct charges. Other recent incidents include:
-- Felicia Shupp, a teacher and volleyball coach at McCullough and The Woodlands high schools, was arrested in 2001 for sexual assault stemming from an ongoing relationship with a female student. Shupp pleaded guilty later that year and received seven years' deferred adjudication, 45 days in the Montgomery County Jail and was required to register as a sex offender.
-- In 2004, Hogan Tebbs Brooks, a former Creighton Elementary School teacher, was arrested by federal agents and charged with attempting to entice a minor over the Internet plus five counts of possession of child pornography. He pleaded guilty to the enticement charge last year and is currently serving a six-year sentence in federal prison.
-- Donald Paul Mauro, a former Conroe Independent School District Police officer, was found guilty last year of nine counts of indecency by exposure with a child, sexual assault of a child and improper relationship of an educator with a student. He is currently serving 44 years in prison.
-- Last year, Thomas Allen Mayes, a former Magnolia High School coach and teacher, was arrested for sexual assault of a child and for having an improper relationship with a student.
Guarding against future sexual misconduct involves a two-fold approach: strict enforcement and punishment for offenders, and constant efforts to encourage open lines of communication between parents, students and school officials through tools like Conroe ISD's Kid Chat, a hotline over which students can place calls anonymously reporting allegations of crime. In addition, parents need to be talking with their children and making every attempt to be aware of what's going on in their lives, so those students feel comfortable sharing information. As Chris Jones, head of enforcement for the Texas Education Agency, recently told The Courier: ''I don't know if a school district can do as much as parents can; if kids are not comfortable in going to their parents, they're not going to any adult. Parents need to have open lines of communication with their kids. It's their duty. A school district can't do all the parenting."

i thought the school was a safe place

I know im just a senior but i am sick and tired of teachers being perverted. for some students school is the only place that they can go to get away from abuse of any kind at their home...then they go to school now and get abused even more...this is what pushes kids to the limit of wanting to end their life because they have nothing left...i am not going to stand for any of this..i will straight up tell the teacher that i know whats going on and i will contact the authorities. i have had a teacher who made my happier and i have also had one that made me feel like crap...so teachers have the power to end your life or make a whole new beginning with a future..

Justus' Bday-Kathleen's Visit

Hey family!
I wanted to let you know that we are flying Kathleen in for a visit on the weekend of the 25th-27th of this month. (This is also Kathleen's birthday!)
I wanted to see if y'all are available to come to Mom and Dad's and celebrate with us on Sat. the 26th. Let me know. We will swim, cook-out, and have an informal birthday party.
Rob, I know is gone (rock stars!), and Liz is available, but Chris and Lisa? B and Amy, I know you probably can't make it, but we will miss you. Maybe we can do that computer thing again. I wish you could meet Kathleen.
This is going to be a weekend to minister to her, so please pray for that.
jenn
By the way, we didn't just paint his face up like aborigine baby in the pic...this was a Camp Ozark thing. He was Osage baby! Isn't he cute! And though he wore a helmet to do the ropes course, and begged to do it like Emma, we told him maybe next year! ha!

700Seays

We are alive!!!

We have been very blessed this week during our trip to Abaco. It did have a scary start though and I will try to tell the whole story later. But the short version is a teenage girl was bitten by a shark on our first day at this beach. I was the closest person to them and I rushed to pull the girl in (after passing off Christian) she had a chunk taken from her forearm and was losing alot of blood. I wass pulling her out and putting pressure on the wound while my good friend Greg (Pastor in St Louis) got a towel to wrap around her arm. They got her stitched up and medjeted to the US, the word is that she is doing fine. But it was a little scary.

We are staying on one of the top 10 beaches in the world and it is amazing!!! I'll try to post pictures when I get our cable.

Here is a picture of the family from Nassau Hilton where we stayed for two weeks. We loveand miss you all!!

seay's in glen rose

i know it appears to be somewhat of a miracle, me writing a blog here and all.
but i'm not as aloof as my appearance gives off.
after reading through the posts, i couldn't help but write a bit.

we're at home this week after spending a week in glen rose, tx.
rsb was playing a camp there but we persuaded the camp to rent us a vacation cottage off the square in the city for seay clan to occupy. we had a blast. it was a nice, simple place where liz could relax some and get recharged. i don't know what the big deal is for her..its just 3 kids under 4 years..but apparently she been needing a break.
the kids loved being on a trip with the band. we played drums, played outside, climbed on the bunkbeds, walked to the square each morning to eat pancakes, ran the bases at the local high school baseball field, etc.etc..
it was great! attached are pictures of the little people..that fat baby is cute, huh?

now i've got a few days here before heading out on a 2 week tour with our friend jill paquette. she's from canada. she sings good. should be a great tour in the southeast and midwest. when we get back, it will be studio time for rsb in the month of september.

well..much love from this seay clan to yours.
i'll write again next year

Eliana's 2nd Birthday

eliana had such a fun polka dot party!
we missed all the cousins though!
we wished you all could have been there.
we had italian food and a polka dot birthday cake.
nana and pop pop gave elle a cute outfit and a cool bike.
she loves them both!
but i must say she was most impressed with the ten dollar bill nonny and poppa gave her!
we didn't even think she would realize what is was when she opened it?
but she studied it closely and smiled really big so we could take her picture with it.
she was quite a hoot! not to mention she picked her nose while we sang her "happy birthday!

The Story When Jesus Was Born by Emma Bacak

When Jesus first, there was someone named Mary. She had an angel told her she's gonna have a little baby named Jesus. So the angel told that back to her husband. Then her husband put Mary on a donkey! And then, the husband...he just walked. And then, they went and went to the place called BETHLEHEM! And when they went to Bethlehem, there's a lot, a lot of people. Mary been gotting tired. So they went to the hotel, best there's NO ROOM. Best then, a man told them there's a stable where they can be there. And then when Mary was at the stable resting on the hay, she had Jesus in her tummy! And then Jesus came out! And when Jesus came out, all the animals looked at it. There was lots and lots of people coming. But then an angel told some shepherdsmen to come there and see Jesus! And when they did, he's been so born and tiny. Best then he growed up into a kid, a couple of few days...best then he grew up bigger, and bigger, and bigger, and bigger... then he stopped. Then he was God's Son.
The End

(Well, this story been true. It's been true, true, true. Please tell everyone this story. Bye-Bye.)

Ethan & Eliana July 2006

Livin' the Dream!

Ethan has a new phrase he picked up (from my brothers, of course).
He walked through the living room the other day while i was excercising to a work out video and yelled out to me..."livin' the dream!"
i'm not sure what he meant exactly? (i typically don't think of having to excercise as my dream come true?)
maybe he thought the girls in the video were pretty?
who knows?
but if you hang around ethan long enough, you'll probably here his new mantra.
he uses it often and he has decent timing for a 4 yr. old.

and when he is playing drums in the garage he introduces himself and yells out "its the ethan seay band!!"
he needs a few more bandmates. elle is more of a dancer. in fact, elle doesn't walk anywhere. she struts and bounces wherever she goes. she walks into a room like she owns it! and the instant you turn music on, her booty starts shaking and her arms are pumping. even in her carseat. she is hilarious at this age. her personality is as big as her hair!

ethan's latest excuse for not wanting to go potty before naptime or bedtime is "i went potty yesterday...you 'member?"
i'm pretty sure its healthy to go at least twice every day.

are any of you "livin' the dream?"

A DECADE OF DIAPERS

After almost a decade of diapers and wipes we are now officially free of purchasing, changing, and purchasing more diapers. Nathaniel got off the diapers a few months ago but being the cautious people we are, we kept him in diapers during the night. This past Monday we let him go free at night and have had no issues. SO, after thousands of diapers and endless boxes of wipes - we are done! It does not take much to get us excited these days.

The Funny Things those Bacak kids say!

EMMA
Today, Emma and Jax watched their favorite show, The Magic School Bus, which was about gravity. (The coolest educational show!) Anyway, afterward, Emma was wearing a costume, and skating on our rug, playing some form of hockey. She fell down, and looked up at me and say "Um Mom. Gravity." with a very displeased look. She's not so big on gravity. She'd much rather live in space. She's been trying to defy gravity, but it continues to win out.
At least my boys are just giving in to gravity. There would be stitches involved for sure if they didn't!

JAX
Some of my favorite phrases of Jax's lately are "You're going down." "Shake it down." He throws in "MAYDAY, MAYDAY!" into his play. "Mom, are you thinking what I'm thinking?"
He passionately wants a bow and arrow, and I'm very afraid to know what all a 4 yr. old boy would do with one!

JUSTUS
Turns out, Justus is a Hanson fan. Yep. His new phrase is "Mmm, Bop." He says it all the time, even in a melodic tone. Rusty is devastated.
Right now as I type, he's trying to fit himself into the cabinets in my living room, and shut the cabinet door on himself (unsuccessfully) and when I looked at him, he put his finger to his mouth and said "Shhh." I think he's "hiding."

Never a dull moment!

It's Been A Year!

Today my new knee is one-year old and what a year it has been! I am spending a lot of time contemplating what this year has meant. One year ago I woke up from surgery with an awareness that God had very specifically answered my prayers related to some of my fears about the surgery. My first thoughts when I woke up were thanking God for making himself so real to me. Of course we know what came next - a long struggle with pain and immobility and many other revelations of who God desired to be in the midst of my pain.
It's always easier to look back on a difficult experience. God has had a long list of things He desired to teach me during this time. Someday I will be able to share with you what those lessons were all about. I pray that I will be a new person because of this journey.
I could not have made it through this year without the love and support of my family. I know that I could be difficult and I spent a lot of time asking others to wait on me. Thank you for your love, for your patience and especially for your prayers.
What an awesome way to bring this year to a close - receiving a touch from God that has given my new knee life. My prayer is that many people will come to understand God, our Jehovah Rapha - the God with the power to heal!
I stand amazed at who He his and what He is doing in all of our lives! There has been a purpose in the journey and a purpose in the healing.

HAIR

I have been experimenting with some new 'hair growth' products. Any thoughts? - b

DANCE

Here is a video I put together from the girl's dance recital. Enjoy. - b

BIG FISH

We went to the Georgia Aquarium yesterday and the kids had a great time. We saw Whale Sharks, Sawfish, Penguins, and more. The highlight of Nathaniel's day were the sunglasses he bought at the gift store. He put them on, turned to me, and said, "Now I have something to wear when I ride my motorcycle!" He doesn't have a motorcycle, but I guess you have to start somewhere.

Jesus in Emma's heart

Wanted to let you all know our exciting news! Emma accepted Christ on Father's Day! Of course, this is the most wonderful Father's Day gift for Rusty ever! (Your child's eternity) She and Rusty have these long talks on the weekends during nap time when all the other kids are sleeping. They have been talking seriously for about 9 months now. I knew she was getting close. Sunday, she and her Daddy were heading off to hang out together and she said "I want to talk about Jesus, Dad." So they did. For a long time. And when they came back, the three of us prayed together. Emma directed the prayer time, as only Emma would. Then when we were done, she hugged us and said "Good job, guys!" I think she thought we were all praying to accept Jesus for the first time! But Rusty and I felt like it was the best job of anything we've done as a parent. How precious to know your child's heart belongs to Him!!! Her baptism will be in August. I will let you know the exact date soon.
I will post pics of the Super-party soon!
Love y'all!

Ethan's birthday

We had so much fun at Ethan's Cars party! We wish you all could have been there...
We ate pizza and salad and a cute car cake. Ethan loves his baseball uniform Nana and Pop Pop gave him! He wears it everyday to hit homeruns out of the backyard!

RECITAL

Both of the girls had their dance recital today. I will have high quality pics in the next few days but here is a pic of Natalie created by my video camera. She was 'stop in the middle of the street and stare at the little girl' cute!

FATHER'S DAY

"Let's hear it for the boys!"

Okay Guys-
I want y'all to know that you are soworth celebrating this Father's Day.

As for Dad: I wrote in his card that he is the best representation of our heavenly Father with skin on. Really, we couldn't be more blessed. We are so blessed by your wisdom, and your love for others. Your patience and your grace with all of us has superceded what we deserved. You have always loved us openly and expressively, without reservation. You are a demonstrative and affectionate Dad, which often seems awkward for so many men. You have never held back from us, and we love you for it.

My brothers: You have followed in our Dads' footsteps. You are, each one of you, amazing Dads. I see you loving your kids in the same way; passionately, affectionately, attentively. You have each thrown yourself wholeheartedly into this role, even while each of you could be caught up in so many other things. Your children are showing it to. They wear your love well. I am so proud of you.

My husband: I couldn't be more grateful. The way you love us amazes me. Watching you wrestle with our kids on the floor, make goofy faces at them through the van window while you pump gas, despite who's watching, and basically, that no real fun is had unless Daddy is home. I tell them all the time that they have the best Dad in the whole world. I know they don't know the difference right now, but they will understand this more and more as they get older. You are a father who is leading us toward the Lord, most importantly. Thank you!
Happy Father's Day Guys!

Grace Days

I was awakened one day this week by Poppa calling to tell me that the mortgage company was calling him to say that they had not received the June payment. I checked my online banking, discovered the problem and called the mortgage company to tell them that the payment was on the way. The nice lady that I spoke with completed our call by saying, "I'll make a note that you will be using your grace days." What a great reminder that God's grace is abundant and never-ending -not restricted to a few days.

God does cool things!

On Monday Jenn and the kids came to spend some time with me. When they arrived I was completing my workout on the stationary bicycle. Emma came running into my bedroom and was surprised to see exercising. She said, "Nana doesn't that hurt your knee?" I replied, "No Emma, remember God fixed my knee and it doesn't hurt anymore!" Emma stopped and said, "I know! We prayed every night for God to make your knee better. Wow, Nana, God does really cool things, doesn't HE?"
He sure does Emma!

Mission Trip

Pray for Rusty and Dad as they will be on the mission trip with FBC Magnolia this week. They are leaving on Sunday night, coming back on Friday night. Rusty will be seeing lots of patients in Mexico this week, and having plenty of opportunity to share the gospel.
We'll be on our own this week, which I know my sisters-in-law are used to, but me, not so much. I'm a big wuss. Ruby and the kids will be joining us on Monday. (We changed the plan.) So my house will be full-minus Rusty.
See many of you at Ethan's bday party.

842 MILES

Mark your calendars for July 18-21 at the amusement park we know as Nana and Pop-Pop's house. We will be driving the 842 miles to meet up with our family for a time of jouyous fellowship, conversation, and margaritas! We will leave the Volunteer State on the 17th and be ready to party by lunchtime on the 18th. We will depart for Amy's parents after lunch on the 21st.

How about some Ethan bday pics on here? Anyone? I know his party is not until the weekend but I also know there is not a chance that Liz failed to take some great pics yesterday.

BACAK NEWS

Hey! Don't y'all love this blog?
I wanted to update you on something.
We are adding to our family, but not in the way you might think.
We have decided we are going to be a Shepherding Home again for New Life.
Y'all know how much we loved Robin, and how painful that was.
However, it was an amazing growth experience. We knew, even in the midst of it, that we would do it again.
So we will be welcoming Ruby and her two sons, ages 2 and 4 into our home this Thursday. Ruby is 21 yrs. old, in a crisis pregnancy, and is looking at adoption.
Here's how you can pray:
1) For us to find an OB who will see her, hopefully for free.
2) For us to get her Medicaid squared away (this is a nightmare). Also, she is not a legal citizen.
3) For Ruby and her kids as she makes a very difficult decision concerning the baby.
4) For the whole family, as we adjust to the change and integrate them into our family.
Thanks! Love y'all!

RECENT PICS

Here are some recent pics. Phillip is practicing some Star Wars moves and Nathaniel thinks smiling means squeezing his face together. - b

We're really not trying to push the Robbie Seay band but we needed to practice uploading an image from the web.

Happy Birthday, Liz!

It's Liz' birthday and we're having a little party here at Nana and Pop-Pop's house. Wish you were here!
Liz got a day to herself and a great dinner wtih Rob at an awesome new spot in the Woodlands (Jaspers).
Afterward they came back to our house for Nonny's apple pie and Jenn's BETTER THAN * cake and Blue Bell ice cream.
What a wild and crazy party!

Teach an old dog new tricks?

Here we sit tonight with Jess trying to teach her mom and her older sister how to use the blogspot. She is not necessarily patient with us but what can we say, we need her! Maybe by the time we complete this tutorial we'll know what we're doing.

700Seays
Never too old?
Hanna spent the night with us this week and as usual I spent some time with her at bedtime reading books and talking. Once we turn the light out it's time to rub her back and sing her song. This week I asked her, "Hanna do you think when you're 15 you'll still let me sing your song to you at bedtime?" She sweetly replied, "Nana I don't think I'll ever get too old for that."

Emma loves Jesus

Emma the other day just came into the house from playing outside and said
"I love Jesus, Mom."
I said "I do too, Em!"
She said "And I KNOW what he looks like!"

Talk to Emma if you're wondering yourself...

Who can keep up with the Seays?

Okay Seay family...even the Bacaks have succumbed to technology, allowing it to be used for good, and not evil.
This blog can be a homebase for us all to keep up with each other. Like pics of Mom throwing away her cane-Hallelujah!!!!, pics of the cousins, (as I just heard Jax ask one of his cousins "What's your name again?" Who can keep up???) quotes of the countless hilarious things they say, a rough itenerary of where you guys are, because I seriously don't ever know, and brief but creative ramblings of us all. I am one of the few family members without a publisher, so when I write something, I'm just going to post it. I don't know how to do this totally, but I'm into it.
I love you guys!
Let's blog folks.
