PROM MAY 5, 2007

B went to prom this year with her boyfriend; a senior. They went with quite a few couples and had a great time. B always looks so pretty; almost like she was getting married in a white dress. I know Stacy's not ready for that yet though! The couple pictured with them is Stacy's niece and the guy is actuallyKaren's distant cousin. Small world in a small town! Doesn't B's baby boy look so cute playing in the grass.

HORSE BACK RIDING LESSONS

K's second love after dogs is horses. She started lessons last fall and has really enjoyed them. She rides a horse named Ranger and she is learning how to care for him and ride him at the same time.

2nd GRADE FIELD DAY 2007

K's field day was a lot of fun. Stacy and I made it for the big event....Tug-of-war! All the second grade classes competed against each other and K's class won a blue ribbon in the overall contest. She was so excited. We were very glad we could be there to cheer them on!

WILD FIRES

For those of you not here in Florida, we have wild fires all around our area. There is one burning just north of us on the Florida/Georgia line. Today it is very smoky outside and ash is falling rather heavily. Please pray for rain in our area and for the fires to stop. Oh, also that people would quit burning their yard trash. Some people don't have much common sense. A couple of weekends ago a neighbor, 3 houses down, caught an area on fire that took 4 hours to contain due to winds. Thank the Lord no houses were damaged. PRAY FOR RAIN!

Baby Update

Well, our little one is moving on down. She has dropped some over the past week and is causing lots of pressure so maybe soon we will have a new family member. We have another ultrasound this friday so watch for more updates. Maybe she will be born on Mother's Day!

eddie polka-dot

This is our son, Eddie Polka-dot. He is a Jack Russell that came to us via Santa when Littlebit was only 4 years old. He is now 3 and is a joy to have. Eddie does not know he is a dog, so please don't anyone break the news to him.

Grandson

Stacy and I were blessed last year with another addition to our family. We have a beautiful grandson who was born last June. He has a great mother and very loving grandparents!!! We are excited that he will grow up with our new baby!

Getting Ready for Baby

Well everyone!( Ok the two people who know I have a blog at this point)I am ready for our new baby. Life has been so busy here lately. I have finished having baby showers and now have a beautiful nursery for our new baby girl. Thanks to a couple special friends that showed up last Sunday afternoon, I am now organized, decorated and cleaned. Well, at least the baby's room is all of those. A special thanks to my best friend, P-bug's mom, for helping so much with all the preparations. I don't where I would be without her. If you ask my husband I would still be digging through gift bags wondering where we will put are new little one amongst all the "stuff" in her room!

My baby shower last weekend was great. I have always known that the Lord has truely blessed me with great Christian friends. During the shower this was so evident. I had to sit in the middle of the room and each person prayed over me, my baby, my husband and my beautiful two step-daughters. I don't know when I have been so moved. I really felt the Lord embrace me and my family as my friends and family prayed over us. What a great experience I shall never forget.
Stay tuned for more updates as I make it a plan to get some pictures up and more info about our family for all of you to read.
