The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything. Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God.

Kaleaha's Library Card
Kaleaha has been looking forward to getting her "own very" library card since she was 3 years old. We picked her up from school on her birthday and took her straight to the library where she was able to get her own card which she signed her name to all by herself.
She was SO proud!!
I'm trying...
Underwater Princess, Waiting on the Bucket Drop
Both Kaleaha and Krennan were feeling better until today, today they have both developed a cough and watery eyes. It's WAY too early in the year for all this sickness!
I thought since I didn't have any fun pictures for this week, I would post some about our last trip to Branson for Kaleaha's birthday. We went to a new resort up there called Castle Rock. VERY cool place!! If you get a chance you should go! Here are some of our pictures from the Indoor Water Park.

I know, I know, no pictures at this time. When I get home, I'll update everything...I've got to basically redo my whole page, so I will when I get time.
BUT!! He's beautiful and we're having a great time with him!

It's finally time!!
OK folks...no pictures, but it's finally time!! We're leaving in a matter of HOURS to go and bring Krennan home. He is supposed to be born on Tuesday. Please pray for a safe journey, a safe delivery and that our families will be safe while we're gone.

New Family Picture
Easter weekend pictures...
Saturday morning we had pictures made with the Easter Bunny. Saturday afternoon there was an Easter Egg Hunt sponsored by Gran's friends, so we went with Eli, Debe and Ashley and her boys. It was a lot of fun. Kaleaha got tons of eggs and the kids all had a goodie cup of candy to take home.
This is the quietest Easter that we've spent in a long time. Church that morning, home for a nap, then back to church for the Easter Cantata. The choir members did a fabulous job as usual. I wish I could sing like some of those people.
A day at the races
As promised, here are some pics of our day at the race track. My niece, Ashley, with her boys, Alex and Ben and Jake. Ashley's mom, Debe, and my other niece, Mattie. Kaleaha wasn't brave enough to ride with me at first so Debe took her our while Alex and I raced Ashley and Ben. Then Ashley and I switched kids and raced again! Then...Kaleaha decided to ride with me! We had a blast!

Really behind, I know!
I'm sorry I haven't updated lately. I had some free time today and I was going to load you up with all the exciting things that we've been doing BUT...my web album won't let me post any pictures at the moment. I'll try again later, or get my computer guy on it!
We've had family in from out of town, so we've been hanging out with them. We did a picnic, go-karts, playdates, they had a baby born. Lots of exciting things. It's been great to see them all.
Now, since I never have anything to brag about that I've done, I'm going to take a few lines here and do that!! It's been a really busy couple of weeks. I've also been selling Scentsy like you wouldn't believe!!! Holy cow! I've sold over $3200.00 in 7 weeks!! Our bowling league is almost over and I bowled a 636 series last week. Maybe I can top that on Tuesday for our last night. Then to end my week a won a MAJOR award for my region at work. It's my second time to win and I totally did not expect it!! So...it's been a great week for me!!
We'll meet with Kayla again this week and visit with her. Our talks are going really well with her. She's awesome! We've retained an attorney for the adoption finalization, we've been baby shopping and now we're getting ready to paint. So if any of you have a few hours to kill and you are handy with a paint brush...come on over!
Kaleaha is sad about school almost being over. She doesn't REALLY realize that she won't get to see all of her friends, but she does understand that school is almost out. She keeps asking if, when school gets out, we can go on our long vacation again. She's talking about when we went to TN last summer. It was a very long trip and we ARE going on another long trip this summer, but I don't think she realizes all the changes that will happen after this "vacation".
Ron's still busy doing computer stuff and trying to decide what he wants for his birthday. He just happened to be off work last Saturday and so he was excited to be able to volunteer his service for the tornado victims in Mena. He said it was really sad. He had just been there a few months ago and now the house was destroyed. We are very blessed here in our area.
In other news...I've been hooked by Facebook. It's kinda scary how addictive all that stuff is. I ran into a friend of mine from High School and she said that since most of us are so spread out now, they are planning our reunion through FB. So, I went home and signed up to help out, so it looks like it will be an extremely busy summer for us.
I think that's all for the moment. I will try to post pics later!
