Weekend Fun








We had a good weekend with the family. Not too much. We have all been a little under the weather with snotty noses and coughs, but all in all not too bad. So, the pics are really quite great. The first one is of poor Colby... his daddy forgot to get him from "playing" in his room to putting him in bed to take a nap. Dad fell asleep - well, and so did Colby. I found Colby napping on his floor. I gave Jim a real hard time about it and then the next day - yep, I did the same thing. Colby took another nap on the floor. Poor kid. He gets no attention around here.
The next few pics are from our version of church at home. Since several of us were hacking, Avery was fighting me every step of the way to getting dressed for church, we decided to have church at home. Of course, Emory kept us in line and told us how to do it all. We were cracking up. So, we sang praise and then studied the story of Zaccheus in the tree wanting to see Jesus. Next, according to Emory, was snack time:
"Now, it is snack time! Let's have a cookie!" and then craft time. All of a sudden mom had to become the snack coordinator and art director and dad of course was the great lead teacher who was willing to sing a silly kid song with his family for teaching purposes. Go Dad!
Well, enjoy our chronicled weekend.

The last few months

A slide show of the last several months - this was the best way for me to get it all out there for those who actually look at the blog!

For Shame!

We have not blogged in forever... I guess with three kids you kind of get busy. So, since Easter we have not been up to too terribly much. Everybody is getting bigger and more and more fun. Becky did take the kids to Baton Rouge. They all went with Lynette and her two kids. So, two moms and 5 kids 5 and under. Whew - 24 hours in the car and we were still smiling when we made it home. Colby is about to turn 1 and he is puling up on everything. We have tried to make it to the pool as much as possible and today we went to the JumpZone. Lots of huge inflatables that are for jumping and sliding. Truth be told, I think I had as much fun as they did. Then, Gina took us to McD's for some lunch and of course ice cream.
