Kasey Kisses

Griffin loves everybody, including our dog Kasey. In this picture Griffin opens his mouth real wide so Kasey can give him kisses...YUK....but it has happened before.

Thanksgiving 2008

Sorry I haven't posted in a while, but I haven't had any new pictures to post or anything new to add, but here are some pictures from Thanksgiving. Oh by the way, I love Courtney's outfit--Oh to be young and skinny again :)

Courtney with her cousins: Dalton, Myles, & Collin

Memphis Metro Volleyball

This past weekend Courtney tried out for volleyball with Memphis Metro. This is really Courtney's first year to play, but with her height I just knew that she could be good. We were only expecting Courtney to make the traveling team, which is a team that plays around this area and a little in Arkansas; it is really the beginner team. I was so surprised when I opened up my email to read that she had made the ELITE team!!!! I couldn't believe it. I am so very proud of Courtney. I know that if she works hard at this thing that she could be really good. William and I are pushing for a college scholarship--it's never too early. I'M SO PROUD OF YOU COURT!!

Photo Tag

I've been photo tagged by one of my sweet friends, Karla.

The rule of this tag is to pick the 6th photo from the 6th picture file on your computer and blog about it. Here is mine:

This picture is of some of the middle schoolers from our church that went on the middle school camping trip back in September. William and I went as chaperones for the 2nd year in a row. We had a really good time.

I Love Being a Mom

As most everyone knows, I am not a "happy" pregnant. I don't like feeling sick, pale, & fat all at one time. I have decided that it was definitely worth it...both times.
Griffin is growing, and learning so much everyday and Courtney is a hoot! She and her friends make us laugh. Remember middle school? the drama, the boys, the makeup.
I was not quite sure how it was going to be having children 12 years apart, but I wouldn't trade it for anything. As a little girl my prayer was that one day I would have a good Christian husband that truly loved me, and 2 kids (preferably a boy & girl). Well, after finally realizing that everything was in God's time and not my own, I got it all. God does answer prayers!!!

Griffin is 4 months old today!

I can't believe that today my baby is 4 months old.

I feel like Courtney has grown up so fast, so I am trying to cherish every moment with Griffin, but he is growing up fast too. I LOVE BEING A MOM and I think my children are WONDERFUL!! I hope they will always know how much I love them.

We saw this bike at Sears-Vroom, vroom!
