LOL I am just funning around. The remodel is looking awesome We love the changes!

Girl scout!

Here is our little girl scout doing everything the boys can do in a skirt! Several of then men at the camp out called her little Lady. They were amazed at the fun we could have and still be beautiful Godly ladies. I love it when our light shines so bright!!! Blow dart paint balls, Bow and Arrows and even BB Guns!

Boy scouts & Rocket

Making his rocket with his dad was great and then yelling fire in the HOLE!!! Those rockets flew high into the sky! more boy scouts to come!

Chilly weather!

I love the weather it is so wonderful! In the mornings its been around 42-49 and by lunch 60ish!!!!! wonderful weather The only thing I hate is in the morning you need the heater on and by afternoon you may need the A/C. But I would take fall weather anyday! My husband has really out done himself this year for my b-day! I think he realizes that his is next Thursday and must really be trying to get some brownie points.....hmmmm wonder what he wants for his
b-day I think it has to do with a tractor. Well tomrrow is really my b-day but I am getting to go to the Affair of the heart so today he made me rotten. My morning did not start out great my co-teacher was sick so we had a sub in the room. I was not sure if I was even going to have a sub. But thankfully I did. I forgot my lunch and the kids ......well they were on the wild side today. But my sweet husband dropped me off lunch at the main office. I went to pick it up and there were 2 dozen roses in a beautiful vase sitting on the desk. I didn't think much of it. Todd usually buys me flowers to plant in my flower beds...they last longer(most of the time :) I said oh how pretty, thanks ladies for watching my lunch I have such a great husband to get me lunch. My principal popped her head out and said yes you have him wrapped around your finger and you are spoiled. I thought nothing of it and started to walk out. They stopped me and said you better take your roses with you. Boy did he surprise me!!! of course I called him and thanked him and then he said don't make diner plans.. Thank you Curtis and Julie they kept the kids and we went to Logans! What a great b-day I am having! Thank you BABE for a wonderful day I love YOU more and more everyday!!!! ok thats it with the mushy stuff! Hope everyone has a wonderful Weekend I know we will OUR PASTOR AND WIFE ARE HOME!!!!!

Updated Family Tree- for Sis. Mandy

Madison had homework to make a family tree! I love it! I love finding out cool things about the family. Going back in time and revisiting many memories! I asked Madison how she wanted to make her family tree....and i was so excited! She said she wanted it to be a real tree with leaves and not just a picture. if any one knows me it has to be fun. So I told Madison some ideas and here is what we came up with. We used paper sacks and twisted them for the branches. Cloth leaves (thanks Sis Michelle) with the family members names written on them. Snap shots of pictures glued around their names. I think it really turned out neat! In our hunt for history we found out on my side my great great grandmother was an indian princess. On Todd's mom's side Daniel Boone would be Madison's 8th great uncle. This was really cool to find out. Of course making the tree was bitter sweet with our memories. So many who have gone on to heaven that we miss so much. A few tears were shed and many fun times talked about. This tree starts with us and on Todd's side goes back with his mom and dad 5 generations. On my side we went back 6 and 7 generations. The really neat thing is Pentecost actually began with Todd and I great grandparents but our heritage goes back even further before pentecost began. There are 30 names on this list and 21 of them we know were filled with the Holy Ghost and Baptized in Jesus Name! That is just so awesome

Picture of the Week!

Here is a little fun we had at ladies meeting the other night! Yep Sis Bean caught Chocolate handed! She was cutting the cake but it was sooo moist (SIS TAMMY) that it was crumbling in her hands. What a great cake Sis Tammy we know you put soooo much time and effort into it. We did miss the layered delight :)

Horsing around!

Well if you live around Wichita Falls you have seen some beautiful horses hanging around, in some unusual places. Well of course the kids have spotted them and wanted to know more, and see them up close. So we went on a horse hunt. And I found out more info about these horses. Go here to read more about this fundraiser, it is really cool http://www.themaneevent.org/ . If you want something off the wall but it was fun to do go on a relaxing horse hunt. My two really had a great day doing this. Of course we had sonic and a few other surprises thrown in with the day. We did not find them all in one day. We have made several days of this event. Just making memories thats what it is about!!!!
