Sound Asleep

I was checking on the kids one night and found these two asleep like this. One is 13 and the other 6. (note: that is a king size bed and they are laying right next to each other!) haha Sometimes they fight like Tom and Jerry, other times they are just like two "bugs in a rug". Isn't it wonderful that we were built to have night time and sleep? To have a chance to start over the next day and be refreshed. I love you guys!

ROAD RASH!

Awww dude! That is some bad road rash buddy! Jeffy was riding his bike home from the park and as he was passing Uncle Bill's truck (it was parked in front of Grandma's house), he had a wreck....well, if you look closely you can see the tire treads of Bill's tire where he face planted! OUCH!!! We are so glad Jeff is not scarred or hurt...but I have to admit Ray and I found enough parental humor amid the crisis to take these pictures. Oh to be 6 and trying to keep up with your older brothers!

It took a while to get the tire tracks of his face...after a long bath Jeff looked as handsome as ever! (Just a little red and puffy in some spots.:0)

Speechless...

I just want to write a little about my boy Brett. I am totally enjoying him at this stage. He is so sweet and fun and as you can see, he has a killer grin! On this day we wnent on a walk in the cool fall air! Love it! I love going for walks with Bretty. This picture just leaves me speechless...I love you soo much Brett. I hope you grow up happy, healthy and choosing the right. I know how special you are and our family wouldn't be the same without you! You bring me such joy! (And you look pretty darn cute in a hat too!;))

A GOOD THOUGHT...

OK, time for another thought for the week. The picture is of a stitching that Edee made for me a few years ago and I absolutely love it. I love this quote...it expresses how I feel. I hope it will brighten your day too! Have a great one! love, me

Monday? thought..

Well, I am a day late, but my thought for this week has given me the giggles since yesterday. My friend Jen said to me yesterday, "Well you can do just about anything for an hour" haha I can't remember what we were talking about, I know we were laughing... but it really is true. If you have to clean your kitchen, or go to a primary meeting or parent teacher conference, just remember, you can do it for an hour and then it is over! :) Life is good~ I am so thankful for my life and the blessings I have and yes, I can do most of my daily chores I dread doing if I take it one hour at a time....have a great week! Here's to my next hour of waking up Ben and Jeff for school....hmmmm... I wonder if they'll get out of bed willingly today!;)
