Who Knew!!

So, tonight I went to sewing class and came back with a size 5 dark brown cordory jumper with little horses on it, and it even has a pink/brown gingham lining. Who knew I could sew!!

Just Say No!!

On the way to school this morning Riley pops up out of the back seat and says, "Momma, I am NOT going to do drugs anymore!" You can only imagine the thoughts running through my head. When I asked for an explanation she stated, "you see we are putting up a sign outside our classroom about how bad drugs are with a policeman on it......" So glad she is making such bold decisions at the tender age of five. Although this thought crossed my mind.. I wonder what drugs she thinks she has been taking?

Expectations!!!

I am going to be an "Aunt" again. Yeah!!!!! My sister in law suprised us with the news that she and James are execting their first baby. We are so excited for them. Not to mention Riley who has claimed it is going to be a girl and it is going to be HERS!! Much love guys.

Lil' Artist

I guess a picture is really worth a thousand words.

The milestotes come too quickly

OK!!!!!!!!!!! What is a mom to do???? Today, our five year old, Riley read an entire book from front to back, TWICE. UGH!!! Why do they grow so fast. We have been working on "The Eye Book" by Dr. Suess. Tomorrow we have to start a new book.

Casey

Casey is our family dog, we have had her for about 14 years or so. Lately she has been losing weight. Anyway, today, casey went to heaven to be with the others we have lost, so jsut wanted to post some pictures of our sweet baby.

Riley's Garden

Riley has been hounding me lately to let her plant a garden. So we had this little spot in the backyard. the before picture speaks words I care not to hear, but the after picture is fabulous. If you ask riley we planted dragonsnaps and william tell's, but she planted snapdragons and sweet william. It was just the two of us and had a great time. Who knew she would have such a green thumb. She loves to plant things and play flower shop. Kudos to Nanny and Papoo for instilling this in her.

Barbie Bassett

As you can see I added her blog site. I used to work alongside William Bassett when I was with AMR for six years, so I kinda feel like I know her a little. I must say, I find alot of inspiration and joy from her site so I thought I would share it with you. There is a lot of faith in places you least expect it. Congrats to william and barbie as they are expecting thier third child.
