    Hooray for babies!
    You need to tell Ryan to stop for a glass of iced tea on his way home when he's working down on rte 4.

    Tell him I'll let him drive my new tractor (^_^)

    i still fear holding babies that small. in fact, if i can drop them and they can get messed up, i dont touch them. :)

    Did you know that there is a gluten free bakery opening in downtown Miamisburg? It is called Sinfully Gluten Free. The website is sinfullygf.com You and Ryan should go to one of the great downtown restaurants and then there for dessert, then to our house to hang out! (We are about 3 minutes away.)

another blessed "aunt weekend"

READ THIS 2nd

at 04/29/08 5:52PM
Then my Saturday eve consisted of playing "Bob the Builder and Wendy" with J.T. we fixed everything in the garage that had wheels...took a stroll around the neighborhood and then ate dinner...then we started our "slumber party". We shared an air mattress, but not so much the blankets...J.T. likes those to his self. :) We watched polar express too as we ate popcorn and drank fruit smoothies! I had so much fun! I LOVE MY FAMILY..and yes I had to scream to get the point across! What would I do with out them?? Nothing fun thats for sure :) Thanks to the Lord above for allowing me to have a wonderful weekend!
  • tommyswife
    We had fun too! Next time we bring out more blankets and after JT goes to sleep you use those! :) Thanks for your help and expertise with Emma's room. I think it is my new favorite room. That's good I will be in there alot! :)

    One of my sisters has been such a blessing to my children. Even after she had her own, she still treats them so special. What a gift JT, Addison, (and baby Emma) have in YOU!!!!

My trip to Columbus

at 04/29/08 5:47PM
So I took off for the weekend and spent some much needed quality time with my sisters! Its weird to me to be the only one left in the dayton area...why is columbus so cool? besides OSU :) Anyways, friday I spent the night with Andrea and Jason...and ADDISON!!! :) She kept smiling at me and loving all over me...it was wonderful..then Saturday morning I attended the women's bible study with the women from west broad..which i really like that class...its about "wife hood" which I can learn a lot about. Andrea was the teacher. I was very proud of her..she did an excellent job..and Angel taught last month and did a wonderful job too! My sisters are so smart! They get it from me:)Then I went with Angel to get Emma's room decorated! And may I say WOW!! It is so adorable! Angel is decorating in "Shabby CHic" if you know what that is...It looks like "old victorian cottage" decor..anyways We are so excited for emma to arrive ...i'm pretty sure she'll love me as much as addison does :)

I love weekends..

I love waking up on a saturday morning with the cool spring breeze blowing across my nose!! I makes me so happy..and of course rolling over to see my beautiful husband! I hope everyone has a great weekend!! I'm sure my will consist of a couple of Lowes trips...thats Ryans FAVORITE place to go! I don't mind it when theres flowers and plants to look at. Ryan finished our first spring project...a white privacy fence! Its the kind that requires no maintenance! Its so pretty! Ryan did a wonderful job. Now its time for landscaping!! I am so excited! I've started one mulch bed already. the only problem is I don't have much of a green thumb but I'm going to do my best!
  • tommyswife
    I love Lowes trips when they involve landscaping and flowers and mulch and dirt and gardens. I get kinda giddy. I hope we can get some of it done before Emma comes. You woke up to a cool spring breeze, I woke up to a boop boop pummering his daddy. At 8am I'd take the spring breeze.

    Remember that the more you do now, the more you will have to take care of later. Don't put in too many beds right away, in a few years you will be kicking yourself for all the work you got yourself into. You can always add, but it is not easy to get rid of.

    Have fun and try not to get addicted to plants like I did :)

  • amcmichael
    have fun with your plants. I can keep animals (and children) alive but I can kill a plant in about 32 seconds. I have great aspirations for flower beds but I have not tried to make them a reality yet. Good luck, can't wait to see you on the 26th Love ya! Oh did I tell you that I have been adopted by your family??? YEAH FOR ME!!!

    I was thinking the other day that u am very excited to plant flowers out front! And make it look beautiful!
    by vanessam at 04/20/08 6:27PM
  • angieprice
    We are doing good. We just planted some flowers and trees, too. We don't have much of a green thumb, either (so we are keeping our fingers crossed!!)! You are welcome for the card. Hope that you had a great time celebrating your birthday! :) Take care...

    landscaping rules! i know youre not asking for advice, but if you havent planted yet, take a good look at the perrenials. i love perrenials cuz they keep comin back! AND, you get to say the word "perrenials" , which is COOL! and also i dont have a super green thumb, but ive found keeping "perrenials" happy is a little easier. and pretty much i want to see how many times i can fit the word "perrenials" in this comment. so there you go. perrenials.

    Hey Ashley! It was so nice to finally meet you today. Don't believe everything you hear either!! I think psycho's really take a bad rap most of the time.
