Snaggle Tooth

Only a few hours after I made my post, Maddie had her tooth out.  The kids are so excited about the Tooth Fairy coming tonight!!!

Not Ready

This mom is not ready for a VERY near event.  This girl is about to lose her first tooth.  She is getting so big!!!  Looks like the Tooth Fairy needs to be on standby!!!

Shirt Making

I have a new craft!  Yes, I know what you are thinking..."don't you already have enough craft projects?"  To answer your question, I could never have enough projects!!  My newest obsession is using my new machine called a Silhouette Cameo machine and I can make t-shirt designs.  We are leaving for Nashville this week and I have made a slew of shirts for Crystal, Mandy and myself.  Here are a few of my favorites:





Party Time

Maddie and Zack were invited to a Frozen 2 birthday party on Sunday.  The party was for their longtime friend Katelyn.  In this picture they were playing bubble walk.  Katelyn's mom is so great at making party games fun for the kids.  Happy birthday Katelyn!!!

Last T-Ball Game

We had our final t-ball game of the season last night.  Unfortunately, during the top of the 2nd inning, it started raining.  Did I say rain?  I meant it monsooned!!   It rained so hard that we were all just dripping wet.  We tried our hardest to run to the car, but it was too late.  So after the down pour, we went back out.  we had already scheduled a pizza party and trophy ceremony, so since we were already soaked and filthy we let all the kids splash in mud puddles.  Oh my, it was funny to watch.

Patriotic Run

The Sweatts are visiting us this weekend.  Crystal and I ran in a 5K this morning that was a fundraiser for my church.  It was a Patriotic theme, so we made shirts last night.  It was a lot of fun, even if it was all up hill!!!  ðŸ˜‰

Some News/Prayer Request

I sincerely apologize for the EXTREME laziness on my part to update this blog.  School has officially ended (today as a matter of fact) and I plan on being better over the summer.  

Unfortunately, I have to share some troubling news.  I don't want to post on FB yet, but I would like everyone to be in prayers for my dad.  Three years ago, he had his 2nd knee replacement.  Immediately, he began to have trouble with it.  He tried to go in, but the surgeon was on maternity leave and the doctor filling in just kind of waved dad off saying that he needed to give it time.  Well, my dad got discouraged and never went back, even though the pain and swelling got worse.  Finally, we talked him into seeing someone this past month.  He has discovered that the artificial knee caused an infection.  The infection has become so severe that it has deteriorated his bones.  So, on June 9th, dad will be going in to remove his knee.  He will be given antibiotics for three months via IV and hopefully that will heal the infection.  IF and only IF, the infection clears, then the surgeon will have to go in and build a bone and put in a new knee cap.  We are praying that this works!!!!  

The other alternatives are them fusing the bone together (no bend in his knee), or the drastic one is amputation.  This has been a real blow to my dad who is EXTREMELY active.  We know that God is is in the miracle business and we are asking for one!  Please, say a prayer for him!  Thanks!!
