SNAP SHOTS!!

Tonight we took the kids to the OARDC to take some snap shots of them. It was so pretty out the weather was perfect!! We obvioulsy had to walk through the forest (that's what Bryce called it) LOL!! We walked the paths and he absolutely loved that and of course along the way he found some treasures that he had to collect at lwast 40 of. I wouldn't let him bring them all home though. His treasures were HUGE leaves. He collected as many as he possibly could. He had tons of fun going on his little adventure. Faith must have liked it to cause she smiled almost the whole time we were walking down the paths she was so happy and of course Brady loves to be outside and he loves to ride in his stroller. Well I hope you enjoy my snap shots!! Sorry there are somany but I loved them all and I couldn't decide which ones to blog!! LOL!! So I hope you enjoy them all. =)

My Pride and Joy!!

Ok sorry I haven't posted in awhile. There has been so much going on here lately i've been to busy to really do to much on the computer. as most of you probably know my mom had surgery last friday. Things went very well we are all very pleased with the outcome. The Dr. said that he got all the cancer out and that she wouldn't have to undego any further treatments. Praise God for that!! So anyways dad and I have been traveling back and forth to cleveland for the last 5 days. But yesyterday mom finallygot to come home. YAY!! and she is doing very well. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers it really meant the world to all of us. So that's the scoop on my momma. Not much is really going on just have been busy around the house trying to get some things organized and in order before it drives me insane
I cannot belive that it is almost time for school to start. Faith starts on the 19th and I think Bryce starts on the 25th not sure on that one. We have to go to the schoolon the 13th to find out more. He is so excited to get to go to kindergaten. I'm not real sure about sending either of them I would just rather keep them home and do my own schooling. That won't happen. I would go INSANE!! LOL!!



Brady Is 9 months old already!!

Family Time!

This weekend we went with my parents to the Johnny Appleseed Festival in Apple Creek .The weather was perfect. It was pretty cool there they had all these big blow up bouncy things for Bryce to jump and play in and then they had some country western music (Wow) that sucked!! The people they had singing were not so good singers and they were having problems with their soundboard. But they had this fiddle player who was 21 yrs old and she was AWESOME! her name was Krista I think anyways she played at the wayne county fair last year. MY mom is her #1 fan. LOL!! They had all kinds of food there but we only ate an apple dumpling. Anyways we had a good time spending the evening with my parents which we don't get to do to often. So thank God for the family time that we do get to spend together.

Cutie Pa Tootie!!

A friend is letting me borrow this cute little chair for Brady so I can help him work on his trunk control. He loves to sit in this little thing. I think he is trying to WHISTLE!! in this picture. Then next picture he is playing with his toys and then the last one he fell asleep. lol poor little guy!! I guess all the sitting and playing he did for the while 45 min he was in this chair wore him out!! He is improving so much!!




I bought this cute little nightgown for Faith at Carters for $4.99 and as you can see she is enjoying the good deal that I got!!!

Little suprise!!

Last week we went to wal mart and Bryceton seen this bike that he absolutely loved. He asked if he could sit on it and ride it around for a couple of minutes to see how well it fit him. lol !! Then when we told him it was time to go and said can we please buy this bike please!! We kept telling him NO that we didn't have enough money to but it for him. Even though Mike ans I knew that we were going to buy it for him. But we wanted to suprise him. So after convincing him that we were broke with no money we finally left and took him to VBS. (Which He Loved) Then we went back to wal mart to get his bike. We couldn't hardly wait to see the look on his face when he seen his new bike!! Man he was so excited and suprised. He said hey how did that bike get here??? LOL !!


"Sweat Dreams"

Yesterday I laid Brady on the couch for a little while. I was folding clothes in the dining room and I could't figure out why he was being so quiet so I walked in to check on him and this is the cute little face that I saw. He was dreaming I think cause he would smile and then make a little sound like he was going to laugh. LOL !! I couldn't resist the urge to capture such a cute little face 8-)

A sermon probably given by Rev. Derek Brown..

"When I was a young minister, a funeral director asked me to hold a grave side service for a homeless man with no family or friends. The funeral was to be at a cemetery way out in the country. This was a new cemetery and this man was the first to be laid to rest there. I was not familiar with the area and became lost. Being a typical man, I did not ask for directions. I finally found the cemetery about an hour late. The back hoe was there and the crew was eating their lunch. The hearse was nowhere to be seen.

I apologized to the workers for being late. As I looked into the open grave, I saw the vault lid already in place. I told the workers I would not keep them long, but that this was the proper thing to do. The workers, still eating their lunch, gathered around the opening. I was young and enthusiastic and poured out my heart and soul as I preached. The workers joined in with, "Praise the Lord," "Amen," and "Glory!" I got so into the service that I preached and preached and preached, from Genesis to The Revelation.

When the service was over, I said a prayer and walked to my car. As I opened the door, I heard one of the workers say, "I never saw anything like that before and I've been putting in septic systems for twenty years."
