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!!

They are so sweet.....when they are asleep...

Last night before I put the boys to bed, I noticed that Tucker and Rich were already comfy in our bed. Tucker can fall asleep quickly, but not as fast as Rich. With him getting up at 3:00 each morning, 7:30 comes around and we are in a dead heat to get back to the bedroom. One thing about that, I get to watch what I want to on the TV.

Rain Rain go away.....

We have had so much rain in the last 5 days. Friday-rained, Saturday-rained, Sunday-rained, Monday-rained, and today...guess what RAIN. We took the cover off the pool 2 weeks ago and filled it, with the water we have to pay for, and then the flood came. The picture of the whole pool, the water is only suppose to be the second white line, which you cannot see. My poor Hosta has been sitting in a puddle. I guess we cannot complain, our yard is nice and green....of course it is 8 foot tall, but it is green!

What have I gotten myself into??????

Well.....Our church has been asking for a director for VBS. They have been asking for some time now, but no one had volunteered. I told Rich that if they did not get a director before the first Sunday in May, maybe God wanted me to do it. Well what do you know, the Lord apparently thinks I will be a good director. I hope it is not a cruel joke. You do know he has a sense of humor, right? Farts? Come on! So I have looked through everything and I hope that I have not bitten off more than I can handle. But then again, God never gives you more than you can handle.

The After Party....

Well....Here is the big 7 year old birthday boy after his big weekend. His friend there is Ellie. He has had Ellie for many birthdays. Rich found him when Tucker was almost 1 year old. He has never let him go since. Ellie is a good friend to Tucker. We are so thankful to have Tucker, and Ellie , in our lives. He is such a sweet boy, he is bright and he always has a hug for you. Happy Birthday big boy, We love you!

Let the birthday begin!!

well we started out the birthday festivities by having Caden and Amerley over for the night. We had chicken nuggets and french fries for dinner and watched Kung Fu Panda, then we moved in our room to watch Narnia. Rich and love them but boy was it a full house! We had a great time and were very glad that they came over for Tucks' sleepover, soon they will not want to do anything with us so we cherish every little thing. God is good in the small things.
