11 Years

Mark and I got married 11 years ago today.  Time flies when you are having fun!  

The girls got up in the 5 am hour this morning.  Yes, 5 am.  They thought I was asleep and kept sneaking in my room to put stuff on the night stands.  It was so hard not to laugh because they were trying so hard to be quite.  They had a plan before they came in our room but Madison would say  things like, "okay, you go that way I'll go this way."  They would walk really slow into the room and then run out.  

Mark and I just giggled every time they left.  They came in and out at least four times.  If it had been light out they would have know we were awake.  They made us cards and left candy hearts.  When they were done they went back to their room and turned off the light and pretended to be asleep.  

When Nathan got up they came to our room and told us they came in the middle of the night to leave us our cards. Madison said it was midnight.  It was almost 6 am she has not concept of time.  I should really work on that with her.  They also brought us pretend food for breakfast in bed.  

I love them all very much.  What a great blessing to have three kids and be married for 11 years. Mark's 35th birthday is tomorrow.  I told Mark to take Nathan to Disney.  They both would get in for free.  I doubt he will do it but I have all day to talk him into it.    
      
Happy Valentine's Day!

Lucky Saint Patrick's Day!

Ada you will love this... Madison loses her tooth yesterday on the way home from school.  I am so excited, I take a picture as soon as she gets out of the van and post it everywhere and email it to family.  I clean it off and put it in a zip lock (easier to find under the pillow, right?) and we tuck it under the pillow and we all, ALL fall asleep.   Madison wakes up at 5:30 AM and says to me, "I can't see if the tooth fairy left me anything". PANIC stricken.  I FORGOT THE TOOTH FAIRY JOB!  Okay this is my only job on earth.  I can't remember to exchange cash for a baby tooth. I send her to the couch and tell her it is too early that she has to try and go back to sleep.   I grab Marks elbow and he says to me, "it is only 5:30".  He was awake and heard her too.  We both lay in silence for 30 minutes hoping she falls asleep.  Funny thing is once we talked to each other thirty minutes later, both of us were in bed formulating a plan.  He wanted to sneak out our ...

Thank You 2010

I try very hard not to base my life on my location, size of house, materials I possess, new cars or the latest fashions. It is not something that is easy for me or something I don't have to work on everyday. I have chosen my life to be about Christ and not this world. I try to understand this world in the point of view of Christ. This world is not about what, but who. Even if you are not a Christian it is nobel to do for others. I have chosen in my life to follow Christ. Not perfect, just forgiven. I chose to help organizations that are centered on the love of Christ. My main point this holiday season is to remember the who and not the what. I always thought it would be cool to start a Thank You Card movement. Not that I do things for a thank you. A thank you card just shows me that I did something for someone else that was nice, meaningful, worthy. Kinda like a report card. So my challenge to you is to get a thank you card in 2010. It doesn't have to cost you mon...

Southern Charm

We made an offer (low), the owners countered (expected) and they countered exactly what I thought they would. So, unless the inspector says the house should be demolished we will be the owners of a 1965, full brick, colonial style, bi-level house the second week of July or earlier. It is on a golf course, 6th fairway. It has a pool, fireplace, an original 60's kitchen (redo), hardwood floors, two car garage and much more. We know the process is long when buying a house in this condition. It's not in deplorable shape, livable in need of some updates. It is 44 years old and has not had major updates. This house is 10 years newer than our last house. It has character and southern charm. Not perfect, but perfect for us. Photos on the web are copyrighted. Not sure If I can post them here. I will try and do a link instead......
