Missing Tooth

He lost his first tooth on Valentine's Day.

I haven't had time to blog about it.

I didn't even know he had a loose tooth.

He is not a baby anymore:(

On This Day.............

8 years ago my sweet little Amanda was born. She made her day view at 8:00am on a Friday morning. She was 6 lbs 14ozs and 18 inches long. She was so sweet and loving. She still is by the way. What a wonderful daughter she is. I tried to find her newborn pictures on disk but I don't have any so this picture is the earliest I have on cd. I love you Man and I hope
you have a great birthday.

My Amanda finally decided to get baptized.

She was saved over a year ago and was too scared to get dunked.

She insisted that Bro. Bob do it.

I am so proud of her.

It is so great to know we will spend eternity together.

I love you Amanda Lynn.

September 16, 1994

Us cutting the cake.

Me and My daddy.

He sure was a very sad man.

Didn't want to give up his baby girl.

OK. What is sad is that these few pictures are the best out of my wedding. And that is not saying much. Very poor quality. If only I could change time we would have gotten a professional to take our pictures. Anyway you live and learn.

Cloud Anniversary

On this day 15 years ago me and my love were married. It is so hard to believe we have been married 15 years. I love him so much more today than I did then. Thank you for giving me 15 wonderful years. I love you very much.



I wanted to share a picture of us back then but I have no scanner. Maybe some other time.

Lunch with My Friend!

Today was a very eventful day.

First off I had a wonderful doctors visit. (I am kidding)

Then I had to give blood. (I am so glad it didn't hurt)

Walk a mile to get back to my truck (not kidding here) and finally the best part of the day.

I got to spend lunch with my good friend Kimberly (yes she is Kimberly to me not Kimber).

I decided to venture out and try her sushi on for size.

Let me just tell you that it was very good.

I had to have seconds.

You must try it.

I think you will like it.

It was very yummy and it didn't make me feel guilty what so ever when I ate it.

Thanks Kimberly for a wonderful lunch.

We will have to do it again real soon.

Wordless Wednesday

Playing around with my camera last night. I really liked the time of day because I thought the lightening was great. Others may not agree. I love Man's blue eyes.

I really like this picture too because I love the freckles on her nose.

Silly Little Girls!!

This is another one of my favorites I took of Man.

This one she is being Man.

She is so full of life.

I can't imagine where she gets it from.

~ 3 of My Blue Eyed Clouds~

I took these pictures the day of Tracy's last mommytography class. I had the kids stand on the wall in front of the church. You know like we did with Kimber at our Perkins Rowe photo shoot.

Matt is always smiling for the camera. I have trained her not so great. She always says cheese. (Tracy I wish I would have known you before kids).

This picture of Man is my favorite. Her personality is screaming to me.

My Little Man. He just wasn't having it. Did not want to smile or even take his picture. But this is him on a regular day. When he don't want to smile you couldn't pay him to smile. But memories for me when I am old and grey. I wanted to remember these 3 just as they were this day.

1st day of the ___ Grade!

Well today was the day. It is the first day of school. It went off without a hitch. All three of my wonderful children got up out of bed with no complaints. Except for little man. When Daddy went in to wake him he told his Daddy, "But its still dark outside". Talk about cute. It was just so funny. The girls never give me trouble. They was up and at em in no time.

This is my favorite picture I took today. I don't know why but I love this picture.

The three stooges.

1st Day of Kindergarten!

1st day of 2nd grade.

1st day of 5th grade.

I can't believe that all 3 of my children are in school. I do not know what I am going to do with my time.

My "Big" Little Man!!!

Guess who is riding their sister's bike without training wheels even before big sis did? That is right Little Man. Yesterday I took them off of Man's bike so she could try and learn to ride it and he jumps on it and just goes right to town on it. We didn't even have to teach him balance or anything. Just took right off. I was so proud of him. She on the other hand is very sad because now she is the only one that can't ride without training wheels. We are working on that though.

Look at tongue sticking out of his mouth. It is a family thing. We cannot help it.

Don't laugh at his rolled up pants and his sisters pink bike.

I know this picture is not focused on him but it tells the story. Had to keep it.

Already knows how to fall.

Picking it up to try all over again.

Success!

Again with the tongue.

Love this one.

So proud of himself. I am a big boy now:)

Balloon Festival 2009

Last night we (my husband and 3 children) went to the balloon festival. It was hot but not as bad as it could have been. We had so much fun. Chick-Fil-A had a tent and we got to spend the wheel. We all got prizes of free food but Little Man got this cow.

The kids got Frisbees and Daddy showed them how to throw it. So cute seeing them learn how to do it.

I love Matt's face in this picture. Determination is what that is.

After the kids played with the Frisbee for a while we found us a spot to sit and we watched the sun behind the clouds. It was so pretty. This cloud kept us shaded up until the balloons were to start glowing.

It wasn't to much longer and we got to see all the balloons being blown up. After that it was glowing time. I love these balloons. Not only is it fun but it is free to go. You can't beat that.

I also had to take a moment and get a picture of the kids with the balloons in the back ground. Notice Man's face. She was not very happy at this point. She wanted something to eat but we had just at before we got there. Poor kid. She is very neglected.

Balloon glow time.

After the glow was done and over with, then it was time for the fireworks. It was so pretty. I couldn't wait to try out my new camera.

We left before the fireworks were over. We all had a great time and can't wait for next year.
