And the beat goes on...

Well, time is piddling onward, one day at a time. I think I used the term "piddling" because it's so hot here I think time itself has slowed due to heat exhaustion. Never-the-less, we're doing our best to enjoy this time, the kids are at such a precious age. Bailey is copying everything we do and Caden is so funny, he's like a rolly polly... my adorable rolly polly. We bought a kiddy pool for the back yard, Bailey LOVES it! Caden got in too, but we were both on lifeguard duty when they were both in, so the camera was put by the wayside.



Have I mentioned that I have the most adorable daughter on the face of the planet?
We went to Rockets over Rhema, which is Oklahoma's largest fireworks display. It didn't disapoint, that's for sure! We were far enough back, that the noise wasn't a problem for the kiddos. They loved it and Bailey kept saying "Wow!" and clapping.

My friend, Jessica Stone, is getting married on July 25th and Miss Bailey is the flower girl! I was worried about money and having to pay for a dress, but God provided. We found this dress on craigslist for $10! This is her at the lady's house, trying it on. She loved it, as well as the halo thing that came with it.

Then we came home and I put the sash on her that we bought at David's Bridal that matches my dress. It's stunning!


So, that's all for now. I did a ton of work yesterday on the house, now I have a ton more to do today. So adios for now and God Bless!

My Extreme Makeover Home Edition

So, as many of you know, we bought a house in May of 2008 that was quite a fixer-upper. It was a foreclosure that had been empty for 2 years! We have spent the last 8 months scrubbing, painting and getting the inside just the way we want it. We have bold colors on the walls, family pictures everywhere, new wood floors down and pretty lighting fixtures that really lighten up the place. But, the thorn in my side has been the outside. Due to the fact that it was empty for so long, the trim went from hunter green, to hideous turquoise. The main color used to be a yellowish cream and now looks more like a very light pink. (yick!) Well, all that changed this weekend when my wonderful in-laws came over and helped us paint. The BEFORE: (boo!) The AFTER: (hooray!) Thank you so, so much to the Clarks and to Jason for working so hard to make our house look so wonderful. It truly feels like our home now.

What Fun!

Life has been busy, crazy but oh, so FUN! In the past week, I've gotten to go to the Bahamas with my friend and I got to spend 24 hours with my dad who was in town for a 50th anniversary celebration. Both adventures were so incredible and made me remember that even though I'm hot, pregnant and cranky, at times, I am so amazingly blessed. I met my best friend, Sarah, in 1991. I was in 1st grade and she was in 2nd. We met at church and have been buds ever since. We got to celebrate our 20th anniversary with a 5 day trip to the Bahamas where we were on a resort and got to relax. We left our husbands and kids behind for a few days resting and enjoying each others company. It was so incredible! This is the view we saw for 4 days, lying on the beach, reading and relaxing. It was so incredible and such a blessing that we were able to go. We got to go sailing, snorkeling and relax by the beach. Sarah even got to do the trapeze. I didn't, due to the baby in my womb (and because I
