Today in the Life.........

What did you do today?  We had a busy day at home.  I was falling asleep while sitting up during Elijah's phonics lesson today.  He was laughing at me.  It was not pretty.  I think I need more sleep! 

Then Elijah threw the new kitty in some water outside.  I don't know how long that was going on before I discovered him trying to bath the cat.  Poor kitty.

Rachel practiced her A B C's. 

And Evan.................  He was blowing bubbles with his mouth.  You can't see it very well, but if you look for it you might.

 

 

Then he started that squeal thing that he does.  Oh man, it drives me insane.  It wouldn't be so bad if it didn't absolutely pierce my ear everytime! 

 

That's our day so far........  so, what's going on at your house?

For Once In My Life

9 Years ~ WOW!!! William and I were married on July 17, 1999. I can still say that was the best day of my life! We were married at the Old State Capitol.  And we stayed at a really nice bed and breakfast in Destin, Florida for our honeymoon (I love Florida beaches). I will treasure those memories for a lifetime. And one particular moment that’s very special to me was our “first” dance.
**The sound is LOUD, so get ready with the volume control**

 

Baye, ya remember that?  That was so much fun! Yes, we cheated a little by taking a couple dance lessons before the big day. That was the Fox Trot. I don’t know if you can tell with the dress I’m wearing.  Trust me, we were trotting.   I fudged on the ending a little… ooops!   I was supposed to only spin once. I don’t know why I went for the second spin??? But hey, it still worked out. William, my knight in shinning armor, saved the day. He just put me where I was supposed to be! 
 
This is my beloved and this is my friend.
-- Song of Solomon 5:16 
 
I love you Baye! Happy Anniversary!
From Your Bride.

Thanks McDonald's

I would like to thank McDonald’s for giving me the motivation to improve my family’s diet and create healthier eating habits.  Although I know that it is not the healthiest choice to make, it is easy to rationalize the decision to “hit a drive thru” because it’s quick and convenient.  And after all, I grew up eating all the junk that McDonald’s has to offer and I am still a healthy adult.  Now things have changed and I am forced to consider other options.  I simply can not support an organization that chooses to openly take an active role in the destruction of something that I hold so dearly.  I could definitely go on about this, but considering the audience that typically reads my blog I would simply be preaching to the choir.
 
Let it be known that McDonald’s has chosen to become a “Corporate Partner” of the National Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce.  And as long as they continue to do so, we will eat elsewhere.

Kitty Kitty

My mom and Mr. Wayne brought a little kitten over to our house this past July 4th.  She was in really bad shape!  She was nothing but bones and covered in flees.  But we were hopeful when she ate some of the cat food that we gave her.  I also gave her some water using a syringe.  She made it through the night.  But she would not eat the next day (Saturday).  This was not a good sign.  I gave her some kitten formula through a syringe.  But she would not even take an ounce.  She actually made it through another night, but passed away Sunday morning.  Here's a picture of me trying to feed her the formula.

The kids were sad that she did not live. They really were looking forward to her being able to play with them.  They were able to watch and even help try to save her.  Elijah and Rachel held each other while daddy placed the dead little kitty in the ground.  It was sad, and educational, I guess.

Then Monday, daddy surprised them with a healthy little kitten.  Elijah and Rachel were so excited!

She is a cutie! Aren’t all kittens? Elijah named her Annie. Annie Kitty. They have been having a ball with her.
Oh, did I say "Ball?"  Ya see this one that Evan's holding?
Yes, you guessed it! Straight in the MOUTH!!!
AND Mr. Daddy Mother Hen let him keep doing it!!!!!!!! 
Well anyway, meet our new kitty kitty ~ Annie.
