this is what we spent the second part of our day, all the way down in New Albany, Indiana...right next to Louisville, KY. It was a lovely day to drive with our family of 7. Unfortunately, Southside Thunder did not win their game. but they played hard!
another re-enactment...now I will just have to dig out the little version. I have some great re-enactment plans, Kara. it's going to be a long winter.
Nora Bean, waiting for us to get our acts together and dish up cakeage.
we love this boy's face. don't ask what we are doing with Will's tiny 2 year old face in the hole of a piece of notebook paper. nope. just don't ask.
while walking thru Target one fine day, Beck and I came upon these ginormous footies...and thought it'd be funny to get them for our ginormous teenager...if they'd actually fit a bit better, he'd have kept them...hiii-larious.
the 16-year old still enjoys a Marvel Encyclopedia...
bashful, as always...Hope your birthday was fun, Will. I think you will have a good time in Champaign/Urbana with Dad this week! Savor the peaceful moments!
can you believe they actually make footy pajamas this long? I honestly don't think my kids wore footies much....they were all hot sleepers like their mother. Will is so stinkin' tall!
LOL!Today has been one of "those" days. not too bad but not particularly super either.
Worship service was good, good message on Acts 7 by Pastor Randy...donuts, fine fellowship, home to clean the house and let Molly run off with our Venti coffee and proceed to drink MOST of it.
Kids had different youth group activities tonight so while we weren't shuttling them there, we were finding out that our storage unit had been broken into and such. Yeah. not fun. But in light of the news on Facebook of the loss of my HS friend's 6 year old son, we'll be ok.
Emma's little son collapsed at school last week (from an undetected heart issue) and due to loss of oxygen, eventually went into a coma and had no brain activity. Life support was shut off at 1 p.m. California time today. Godspeed little man. Prayers and love to Emma and her family. Hug your littles....if this news just doesn't make me cherish each aggravating moment, I'm an ogre for sure. God's ways don't always make sense.
Tally ho! Onward to a new week, filled with promise and joy.
My goal is to smile when I feel like shrieking. To giggle when I feel like banging my head on the wall. I may fail. that's ok.

No, say that you aren't having trouble finding things to smile about when just this one post made me smile like 10 times! Love the footie PJs, and the fact that you can talk him into putting them on for a picture. Not to mention the fact that you can get Will to sit on his Auntie's lap! Of course, to add to all of that, the way that you vividly describe Moo and your cup o' Joe...I am in convulsions from laughing so hard. So, when you have the urge to shriek, I am sure that Beck (or any of your family for that matter) will be able to make you smile...but, just remember, there is always me sitting here finding the precious moments in your life entertaining and endearing.
Hugs, cuz!
awww, I appreciate your observations and insight, dear cousin!
I am so glad it brought you laughter on your Monday...and it means a lot to me that you still check out my blog!
Love you! Hugs
