11 Years Ago.....

I can't believe eleven years have passed since I said "I Do" to this wonderful man!

We have had a wonderful day - even though one of our darlings got diagnosed with Chicken Pox this morning. :D  We always have excitement around here.

I am so thankful God has blessed my life with Keith!  I am truly a blessed woman!!!!

Stiches......

This was a first for our family, but I'm so thankful that it wasn't any worse.

Thursday afternoon, we were getting ready for Keith's family to come and a mishap happened with a misplaced bat.  I won't mention the poor child's name, but we'll just say he was VERY sad for his little brother.  :(

  So off to the ER we went......After some Motrin, we was feeling pretty good.

 They put some medicine on it, so they could stitch it up.

 We had to wait at least 45 minutes after the medicine before they would come to stitch him up.

 After much pain and tears and sweat (it took three people to hold him down :*(.....)  he was sent home sporting eight stitches.

By Friday, he was back to normal, except for some swelling. 

Hopefully, that will be the last trip to the ER for a good long while!

Up-Catch #2......

Still catching up. :)

 I love this man!!  Grandma and Papa watched the kids one evening, so we could go on a date...Thank you!!!

My dad was asked to preach a funeral of an older man and he had served in the military at one time.  Kristyn and Owen went to see what they did at the grave side.  They were quite impressed.

 Notice the last mans leg - I wonder if he lost it fighting for our freedom.

 We had a little party for Jeren at my parents.  

 Come on, Grandpa.  I'm ready to go. :)

 Yum!
We also went to the Kiddy Park, but unfortunately didn't take my camera.  We had a very fun week!

Up-Catch #1.....

The last four weeks have been a whirlwind of activities and traveling for us.  When we pulled back into our drive, Keith said we had traveled 1,380 miles since we left home

BUT we had a wonderful time with family.

Here are a few pictures.........

 The first weekend was my dad's side of the family getting together.  So much fun!!!!!

 Kristyn hopping in the sack race. :)

 Then we got together with Keith's family.  Had a GRAND time at the lake.  The kids loved tubing.

 Jeren turned TWO years old. :(

 He and Rachel share their birthday, so we had a party for them.

 My little man's growing so fast!!!

 We saw some very cool fireworks on the Fourth!!

 One day we went to the park with cousins - extremely fun and HOT!!  Megan and Ava - partners in crime! They are six weeks apart.

 Sweaty blessings!!

 The "cool" kids....

Nothing to do with the kids, just a cool dragon fly. :)

More posts coming.......  :)
