all I can say is NOSE

I am sitting here tonight looking at all of my pictures from the weekend and I notice that big noses run in my family!! Look at the picture below...... It cracks me up! Three noses sitting on a log!! ha ha All we needed was for my daddy to be in there with us. I still think the picture turned out good!

Action Packed!!

Can you say busy, busy, and busy??? We have been going non-stop this week, so I have alot of posting to catch up on. Friday Tim and I went with Morgan to Magic Springs in Hot Springs, AR. We had to be at the school at 4:30 Friday morning. OMGosh!!!!! We left the school finally at 5:25 a.m and four hours later we were there. It would not have taken that long, but one of the buses broke down. I am sure it was something to see.... Seven charter buses and about 50 (no lie) cars pulled over on the side of the interstate. They finally split all of the kids up that were on the broke down bus and put them on the other buses!! At Magic Springs Tim and I realized how much older we are getting! I thought my feet were going to fall off. Morgan didn't seem to mind it too much. Morgan and Abby made sure they rode most of the rides. You will see that in the pictures below!! I will tell you that it only took us 2 hours and 45 minutes to get home. ha!!

Waiting on the Bridge to get soaking wet!!

Morgan and Abby

Morgan is in the bottom of this picture. She is the one with her legs sticking straight out!! It made me dizzy just watching this ride.

You can't see her very well in this picture but let me tell you.........you could sure hear her screaming. She is in the very front car.

I didn't mention earlier but my mother came to town to take care of Lauren while we were in Hot Springs. When she is in town what do we do?????? (Pictures ha ha) We started our day by going to JCPenney to get the girls pictures made. Can you say disaster???? The girls were great but the pictures were awful!!! First and Last time we will use Pennys for pictures! We were able to get some pictures from the Zoo!!

Are they not just the cutest!!!???

Ava Grace is a little nut!!!! She makes us all laugh!

Tonight Morgan wanted to take mine and Mama's picture, and as you can see we had to try and behave.......Ha Ha!!!!! We did manage to behave long enough to get one!!

Happy Birthday Shelly!!

Happy Birthday Shelly!! I hope you have had a great day! Those of you who know Shelly......Can you believe I got a picture of her and lived to tell about it?? Ha Ha Love Ya Shelly


I would also like to wish Tim's brother n law Todd a Happy Birthday!!

can you say BIG head??

After church tonight I needed to go by Shelly's and get my two bowls. We just pulled up in front of the house and Brad ran them out to me. Shelly brought Ava Grace out real quick to say HI and I got to give her a kiss. We left and a few minutes later Shelly called and told me that Ava Grace said "GiGi"!!!!! They went back in the house and Ava Grace had a phone in her hands and Shelly said say hello to GiGi and that is when she said it. I was soo happy. Then later I called and Shelly put her on the phone and she said it to me!!! Okay.....You can all call me BIG head!!!!

thank you LORD and Aunt Shelly!!

Those of you who know me really well know that I am NOT the project mama. When it comes to a Science project that is all Tim!! Well....Tim is not having a good year!! It could be because he is getting close to 40(???), but all I know is he can not stay well. He went to the Doctor on Wed. because he had a sinus infection and ear infection sooooo...........That means he could not finish the science project because he felt sooooooo bad!! Morgan had nothing on her board!!!!! As Tim is laying in the bed I am screaming at him because I don't know what to do with this project, and of course Morgan doesn't have a clue either. This will be when Aunt Shelly comes to the rescue!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Shelly says.....Bring me everything and we will figure something out. We finished at 10:45 pm Wednesday night.(It was due the next morning) Thank you so much Shelly. I don't have a creative bone in my body. Thank you LORD for letting it be over!

After all of that worry and work the project was finished and looked so cute. Shelly and I just had to tell Morgan be very careful Thursday when you take it to school. I forgot to mention that this project will be Morgan's 4th 9weeks test grade in Science.

Okay.....Now it is Thursday afternoon and I am waiting to pick Morgan up and here she comes with her project. I am sitting there thinking after all of that work they could have at least kept it 1 FULL day. She gets in the car and I ask "What did you make on it?" she says...."Don't know my teacher wasn't in class today!!" Can you believe that??? So,I guess the sub just wrote down that Morgan brought a project and the teacher will give her a grade when she is back. All of that work for this!! Anyway....I am proud of it and so is Morgan so we can at least share it with everyone!!

SO close but yet so FAR

Well.....The tigers didn't win but they are still my team. I feel sorry for those boys because I am very sad so I know they are just soooo upset. I guess we will just have to try again next year!!

goTIGERSgo!!

Some of you may be wondering what is the big deal about the Tigers??? I guess some of you would only understand if you grew up around here. This is huge for the City of Memphis and for all Tiger fans. You can't turn on any news station without seeing the Tigers everywhere. I do hope they can beat Kansas!! Even if they don't I know all Tiger fans will still be proud of them. To the rest of you who can't find nice things to say about the Tigers..... I forgive you. I do hope you would be this excited for your team!!!!

New LOOK

Hope everyone enjoys the changes, and the MONSTER family picture. I tried to make it smaller but this is as small as it will get!

I have added a new blog link. Beth and Shelly already know about this, but for those of you who don't I hope you will look at it(Emily C). I will warn you that you will cry your eyes out but at the same time be truly Blessed! If you have time start by looking at her older post and work up to the newer ones. This woman has more strength in her little toe than I do my whole body.

Tim came in the other night and I was crying so hard. He asked why I would read something that would make me soooooo upset. Honestly, I don't know why. Her story has truly touched my heart. I hope it will do the same for you. Then when you get brave you can look at some of the links she has on her blog. Most of them are heartbreaking but...... It takes Christian people like all of us to pray for each of these families. It will make some of our problems look so small.

Okay now I will tell a funny......Have you ever had a constipated cat???? Well...... I have!! After $283 the vet tells us that he needs to poop!!! I promise I do not make this stuff up, it really happens. Hope all of you have a great week!!!
