Right Now

At this very moment I am being begged, pleaded with, asked, harassed and harangued by my three year old son, Seth. All he wants is a lollipop. He really needs one, he deserves one. After all, he was so good at finishing the cookies he had to have as dessert from his second breakfast. God made children so cute so you you can deal with the annoyances that come from everyday life. Who could possibly say that there was no intelligent design. In my opinion, God is brilliant.

Rock On Gravy Man

I can really tell that I have a teenager in my house. David got an electric guitar for Christmas and has been rockin' ever since. I must confess that Matt and I have done something that I never would have thought, we have told him to turn the music down. For those of you that knew me when I was a hard rock chick I know you are shocked, I have to say that I disgusted myself. In my defense, it is hard to get a baby to sleep in a house this loud and that's just the usual "boy noise". I am trying to get him to form a band called the Slick Chickens I want to be the do-wop girl in the short skirt in the back of the band. Go Gravy go!!!

A New Year

I can barely believe that 2008 is already history. The older you get, the time flies faster and faster. We had a huge year this past year. For starters, Matt held on at Global and came through even better than we could have hoped for. We found out that we were adding to our family and got a girl to boot! Something I haven't mentioned in my blog happened about a week after Annabeth was born. We are in the process of building a new home. We were supposed to be finished with the house in May but our builder recently told us that we may be in the house by the end of January! We had such a trying year in 2007, ain't God grand? I am holding on to my seat to see what 2009 brings. By the way, Josh had a Christmas filled with movies and video games, David asked for and received an electric guitar, Joey asked for all sorts of things and is busy discovering all of them, Seth is just excitied that he got to open his gifts as well as Annabeths. As for the princess of the Beam palace, she was showered with dolls and clothes, her mommy is having fun with all of it!
