A small attempt to pen those precious moments that seem to go by all too quickly. Things that would easily be forgotten.....may they always be remembered....here's hoping this site never crashes. :)

Preacher Man!!

This past Sunday T got the priviledge to preach at church. We are without a pastor right now. We do have an interim, but he was gone. So T got to speak. He did an AWESOME job. Not that I am biased or anything. :) You can check it out by clicking here. Just click on T's name. He just wanted to share how BIG our God is and His Glory!! Enjoy!!

Hard Core Swimming

View from the pool! We love to swim here!


Today we had a Jr. High lake/pool party out at the Whithams. All the Jr. High kids were down at the lake so we had the pool to ourselves. :) Daddy talked CT into taking his floaties off to see if he could swim unassisted. Like a champ he took them off, and away he went. I was quite impressed with his abilities. He would swim all the way across the pool without coming up. Now to teach him to come up for air without sinking. He got himself pretty worked up though, because after he got out of the pool he puked. LOVELY! He was fine after that and downed a hotdog. I just hope it stays down tonight. :) I am loading a video of him swimming. KG whines the whole time. She if fine, she just does that. Next year she will be more fun to swim with.:) She has come a long way. She use to hang on to me the whole time. Now she will float around with her floaties. Progress my friends! :) Enjoy!!

Sunday Photos






This morning we went out to take some pictures before church. The kids were excited about it! :) Since the were cooperating I thought I ought to take advantage of it. We were even on time for Sunday School. :) Mimi and Nana...I think you can right click and save the pictures if you want to print any of them out.

Frog Boots

Hard to see, but she even took a nap in her frog boots. :)

We have officially handed down the frog boots to KG, and she LOVES them!! She wore them all day long. I had a hard time getting her to take them off to go to bed. This is what she wanted to wear that day. At least we did not go anywhere! :)

Beautiful Day!!!

CT Funny: Today I was outside water the plants and CT sticks his head out the door and says, "Hey can we come out?" I said go get your shoes on and you can come out here. He was so excited he turned to KG and said, "KG we get to go outside, It is a BEAUTIFUL day!!" It was halirious because he said it with such enthusiasm. :)
CT also went with me to run some errands to day. We stopped in a sports store and I turn around and he has on a baseball batting helmet, glove, and ball. (Thankfully we know the owner) He said, "Look mom, I'm all baseballed up." I was so mad I didn't have my camera. Maybe I will take him back just to get a picture.

Spiderman, pools, and puzzles.......


Not much has been going on here.....Daddy is off at staff retreat so we headed over to Ms. Connie's pool today. CT was SUPER excited because she has a DIVING board. One of his little friends also got to come along. They had a ball jumping off over and over and over again. KG spent her time getting in and out, in and out, in and out of the pool. At least she was doing this by herself on the steps. She wore me out!!
Ummmm.....does anyone have any snacks? :)
CT is also into dress up these days. He LOVES spiderman. He wears this often. He also tries to get KG to dress up. Sometime she obliges, but most of the time she says no. He does not understand why she does not want to dress up. I will have to find him some more costumes.
We worked a puzzle the other day. When I say WE I mean me with them climbing all over me while they ask "Where does this piece go?" We made it though. It lasted long enough to take this picture then it was back into a million pieces in no time.

Lil' Campers

Future baller on our hands! Watch out LeBron James!! ha! ha!
KG went from one person to the next. Whoever had a popsicle she was their NEW best friend! Of course they wouldn't tell her no. Hopefully she didn't pick up any germs along the way!



This week has been Jr. High camp. Then we are FREE!!! :) For awhile anyway. Summer is coming to an end. It has been fun though. We have been driving back and forth to this camp because it is so close. There is a pool there with a SUPER FUN slide, and kids willing to take CT up and down it over and over and over again. He actually just needed help getting to the top. The steps were quite slick. He was ALL about coming down on his tummy like Super Man. KG also enjoyed it, but Mommy and Katie got tired, so she didn't get to go quite as much as CT. She kept saying, "Slide, MY turn."
CT funny: On our way into lunch CT was not in the best mood. So T asked him what was wrong and he said, "I'm tired of all these KIDS." ha ha!! His daddy is in the wrong profession for that attitude. :)
