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. :)

First Day of Wee School! Yipeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

First Day of School.
Come on boys. I don't have time to wait on you. :)
KG in her classroom playing.



Today was the first day of Wee School. I think I might have been more excited than the kids. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE being at home with them, but I also LOVE Wee School. :) They both went right in their classes and didn't even hardly know I was there to say goodbye. Which is wonderful. That makes it easy. There were several children in KG's room crying. She didn't even seem to notice. She went right to playing. It probably helps that they practically live there anyway. I don't know that KG knew it was any different except that she was there longer than normal. :) Here are some sweet pictures of their morning. Enjoy! Notice KG has her "bankie" in every picture. :) She is a mess! I will try to get some of CT in his class on Thursday. It was a zoo in there and I forgot to take some.

KG's Nap Mat




This past Sunday as I was dropping KG off for Sunday School they informed me that they were bumping her up a class for wee school. No problem except for that she would need a map. Not a big deal for the average non-perfectionist mother. The problem is that I made one for CT so it was only fair that I make one for KG too. So after lunch I headed to Mar-Marts as CT calls it and loaded up on girly fabric and ribbon. I thought it turned out pretty cute, and she is awful proud of it. She put her baby to sleep in it the other day. Not that KG will actually sleep in it at school. :) Good luck with that Miss. April. I will have to say they are nice on trips. You can have them sleep anywhere. :) It also folds up to where you can carry it. :)

Side note:No I cannot make one for your precious child. I'm too expensive. :)

Birthday Bash!!

CT Sliding! He loved this thing. I had to drag him off at the end.


CT swinging for the pinata. He actually hit it.
Birthday Boy!



This past weekend CT and KG were invited to one of their little friends B-Day parties. They had inflatables and a water slide! The kids had a ball. We also got the special treat of some of our friends who have moved caome back for a visit. CT was thrilled. Kylie is one of his favorites!! The kids also got a try at busting open a pinata. That was a little dangerous, but they loved it! Especially when all the candy came out. Happy Birthday "Nane" as KG calls him. :)

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! :)
