Another Monday come and gone!!

Who likes Monday's? Unless you are a sick individual, you hate Monday's just like me. But when you have sweet little boys at home waiting for you, how can you not like Monday's? Or any day for that matter. No matter how bad of a day I have had or how grouchy I am, these two can make me laugh. I love them more than life itself!

One more thing.....

When I was mowing today, Rich took a few pictures of Patch of Heaven. We love our little house. There is not a place we would rather be than right here. We can always find solace at home. God truly blessed us. We have two healthy children, a wonderful family, a beautiful home and each other. God is good!

My kind of Mother's Day!

Well...today was a great day. We started out going to church, then to Wal-Mart :), then home and out to mow! Even though I mowed on Thursday night, we had so much rain and our grass is SO high and since that today is Mother's day, I decided to mow.....again. Riding the mower is therapy. I can come up with some great things on that Murray. Some things are too far fetched, but it is a great time to be by myself. As a mom, you do not have much time to yourself. One day though I am sure I will have too much time to myself and will wish for these days back. While I was mowed tucker planted his bean sprout in our garden. Check out his hick feet. I did not realize we had hobbits for children!

Summer has begun!

Well, we finally had one day without no rain. Trenton and Tucker have been going nuts because the cover has been off the pool and we have been torturing them, by not letting them swim. So today, even though the water was green, needed to be vacuumed and it was only 68 degrees, we let them get in. Tucker was only in for about 45 minutes, while Trenton on the other hand was in for about an hour and a half. You know I could remember being in our pool in Las Vegas and mom telling me you are going to be a Popsicle and me thinking your just old. Guess what I was thinking today! Wonder what Trenton and Tucker were thinking????

The last 3rd grade project!!

Well, Trenton had to do a volcano for a school project. We had big ideas...exploding lava running into the ocean, sound effects the whole nine yards. Then Trenton decides that he wants to keep it so he can play with it. So....mom and dad stepped back and thought, wait this is his project, not ours. He wanted to do an African volcano. Me, thinking I was smarter than a third grader, said "there are no volcanoes in Africa". Well we looked it and what do you know, there are several. So after I recounted what I said, we started. What started out as a hot mess, ended out to be an awesome volcano...that is in Africa. Mount Cameroon to be exact.

Happy Mothers Day!

Happy Mother's Day! People never really appreciate your mom until you are one. Being a mom is a thankless job. The pay is the pits , you never get enough rest and no one appreciates you. Like I said....until your a mom. Your mom molds you into who you are. Thank you for all you have done for us. God truly knew what he was doing! We love you! Happy Mother's Day!

Cumberland Caverns!

Today Trenton went to Cumberland Caverns. It is a natural cavern in the Chattanooga area. I think he had a great time. I found a piece of "gold" and even a diamond that he said I could make into a ring. Rich or I could not go with him today, so this was his first field trip without one of us there. Mrs. Vetter, his teacher said he did great and had a good time. I was afraid he would wander off and get lost! He had a great time and collected a whole bag of "treasures". Ah ....to be young again!!
