HAPPY 4th BIRTHDAY TO OUR BABY BOYS !!!
WE have been so blessed over the past 4 years. For months we never knew if we would get to even meet you, but God provided a miracle for both of you and allowed you make it through the surgery and many weeks of pre-term labor and the delivery. I am so grateful for all the doctors that cared for you and I , that helped keep you in there as long as possible 34 weeks. And praise God for that wonderful day you both were born and for the most part healthy. Just small and a little weak, Jeremiah 5.5 and Jonathan 3.5. After 5 weeks in the NICU we got to bring you home and start life with 2 little boys. Over the last 4 years you all have provided us with lots of Prayer, Love, Tears and Laughs. We are so happy to have the both of you in our lives. And pray that we can continue to raise you to bring Glory to the Lord.
Enjoy a look back at the way they have grown. Sorry I could not pick there were so many so I just keep clicking..
We went to Dollywood a few weeks ago for the Tindells company picnic, it was a beautiful day. They provided wonderful food and lots of fun. The kids got to ride all the kiddie stuff, after the first one Matt said ok lets go to another one Jeremiah said no it cost to much money. So we had to explain that is was all free and they could do all they want. I suppose my thriftiness has rubbed off on them. We stayed in pigeon forge another day and did a little shopping and played putt putt. The boys did a great job playing and loved it.
We went to the fair, 2 nights and then Paw and Maw came down to go on Saturday. The boys enjoyed the rides and animals. They went on the Farris wheel with Maw. They liked it, which was surprising we figured they would be scared up so high.
Ok I know this is a month behind.Just been trying to gather every ones pics. But anyway her party was great the weather was HOT but a beautiful day. Thanks to Maw for making the cakes they were too cute and delicious. And a big Thanks to all our family and friends who came to the party. She loved the cake, she ate the majority of the number 1 cake. She had a belly ache all night and Sunday afternoon until she got rid of all that cake. Then she was ready to go again. She really did not care much about the presents but loved the cards. It was a great day and we are blessed with great family and friends to help celebrate Gracie.
Well a week has past since my sick days, and now Matt and Jeremiah have the stomach bug. So it is a yucky day around our house. Everyone is napping right now. I hope you all are having a good week. Still no camera so no new pics.
I am catching up a bit. I have been down a couple day with a stomach bug so I figured I should catch up for the last few weeks. Aside from the little day trips I blogged about we have been super busy with Garden and canning. Last Wednesday I picked 5 gallons of beans and the Mom and Dad had an extra 5 gallons they did not have time to put up so I brought them home with me. So Thursday I broke, strung and canned 21 quarts of green beans. Then we found tomatoes at a good price so we got a bushel and Monday I canned 9 quarts of spaghetti sauce and 22 pints of salsa. Got sick early Tuesday morning. I praise God for a wonderful husband who was able to come home from work Tuesday afternoon and help with the kids and stayed home today so I could get better and get my strength back. What a blessing !! This day is coming to an end and I am feeling some better, stomach still rolling but not sick so I am thankful ! Matt and the boys are out cutting Okra from the Garden cant wait for enough for a fresh batch of fried okra . I love it. And by the end of this week all of our tomatoes should be ready and I am guessing I will have more ready then the bushel we purchased. We will have more beans ready in a few days. With all that has been going on something very important slipped my mind. My baby will be 1 in 3 weeks !! It just seems unreal I guess that is why it slipped up on me. I can't believe it . It just seems like she was born yesterday and by no means that a whole year has already passed. So now this week I will get busy planning a birthday party for my baby. Which make me depressed !! Thanks to everyone for reading. I hope you are haivng a good week ! Our camera has been broke since the day at the splash pad,Thanks to Paw and Maw for loaning there camera when we went to Cades cove. But until we find a new one we are with out so I wont be posting too much.
Matt took last Friday off and we rode up to Cades cove and spent the day. We started with a picnic and and a few pics, then we drove the loop. We saw a bear and a few deer along the way. Then we went back to the river and played. The water was freezing but it did not stop the boys from having a blast. We found a few rocks to slide on. You can see by their faces and body they were so cold but they would not get out. We had a great day !
A couple of weeks we spent the day in Knoxville because Charity and Will had to make a quick trip to Knoxville so we spent the day playing with Will. I took the kids downtown to go up in the Sunsphere and to play in the splash pad. We met our friend Jenni and her 4 boys there. This is a great place to take the kids to play. We had a good time.
The kids and I went to Columbus , GA mon-thurs to spend some time with my sister and her family. Here are some pics from our trip. Thanks Charity for having us we had fun !
