Too Cold.....

The beginning band had their spring concert Friday. They did a great job! They have come a long away since the Christmas concert.



After the concert they went to the fun park and rode go karts, bumper cars and a few rides. I think the kids were having a great time!

Trey on bumper cars:

Jesse on the go karts:

Cathy (Jesse's mom) got talked into riding a ride too!

Then it was on to the water slide! It was in the low 70's with high wind, not a great day for the water slide! We haven't had enough warm days to even help warm the water. It didn't seem to bother the kids until the end. They were real troopers! Cathy and I sat in the car by the water slide and watched, we were in the warm spot and not moving!

Jesse and Trey going down the slide:

Thankful Thursday

My uncle came up to visit and to get one of my grandma's pug puppies. On his way home he had a wreck and rolled his truck 5 times.

He was VERY, VERY lucky! He only sustained cuts, scrapes and bruises. How you ask can someone walk away from a wreck such as this one? The only answer I have is by the grace of God! There was a couple behind him that saw the wreck and was able to call emergency personnel. The puppy was thrown from the vehicle and unharmed. The couple picked up the puppy and took it with them while my uncle was taken by helicopter to the hospital.

After something like this I am very thankful for everything I have as it could be taken from me in an instant. We don't say it enough so for all of my friends out there, "I'm thankful for each one of you!!!!"

Spring Break!

I love my job! I get a week off during Spring Break, so far the first part hasn't been too good. It has rained for 2 days and I am ready for it to stop. I wanted to do all these wonderful things and since it has been raining I don't even want to leave the house.

Trey went to his dad's for the week and Mark is working. So, I decided it was a good time to go through Trey's stuff and start throwing away! He always comes up with some excuse on why he should keep a certain toy. Well, now that he is gone, it's time to get rid of things. I am taking all his toys down to goodwill. There is some boy or girl that would love to have them. Now if I can stay in this gear I might get the rest of my house in spring cleaning mode.

Paint

We finally got the hallway painted!!!!! I don't know how many coats of paint we have put on in the last 12 months. I hope we don't paint again for a long time!

Weekend Pictures

I was taking pictures at the races this weekend when I came up on this strange thing growing off the tree.



Of course I got a really good one of Trey.



He doesn't like to have his picture taken anymore. So I asked him to look at me and tell me if the flash was working. Sneaky huh??
