Sunday - Baptism

Today something wonderful happened! TJ and Kalee got Baptised! Their daddy did the baptism at church. It was great! The church gets cake and balloons and all that stuff and they have a Spiritual Birthday Party after service. It was a very nice day! After church we went to the parade and Marlee rode Tacoma. This was her first time to ride a horse in a parade and she did very well and had a blast! There are some not so wonderful things going on in our lives right now. Would love to have prayers from believers. God knows what the issues are so just ask HIM to help us out right now. Thanks! Have a blessed Monday, tomorrow!

Saturday - Parade!

Today we were in the parade to represent Foster Care and Adoption. This is a yearly event. Doing something every year really helps you to see how your kids are growing. When we started the parade Alex, Kourtnee and Marlee all were old enough to walk beside the float giving out brochures, but Drae, TJ and Kalee all ahd to be in the float. Well last year Kourtnee was no there to ride the float she was there to watch the parade as she was an adult. Alex, Marlee and DRAE walked, but TJ and Kalee and now Kris all had to be in the float. Well this year was teh hardest! Kourtnee was watching with her fiance', Alex was not there at all, Marlee did not want to walk because she is not a "kid" and Drae, TJ and KALEE walked! Kalee handed out CiCi's Pizza coupons that Cici's will give a dollar to Foster Care when the coupon is used. As she passed out each one she gave a bright smile and a "Merry Christmas"! She looked and sounded so grown up and was just so sweet and beautiful! I was very proud, yet sad. we all talked about the fact that our kids are growing up! The parade went well and we had a great time as always and these are times and memories we will never forget! cherish the memories of your kids and every little cute thing they do! They are grown so fast!

Missed Thankful Thursday - Fun Friday

Well, I missed last night. So I will have to write the a thankful blog next week. But everyone knows how thankful I am for my family and my life. Most of all I am thankful for my Savior - Jesus Christ!
Fun Friday was good. We rented Bridge to Terabithia - may not have spelled that right! It was not what the kids thought it was going to be but they did like it. They want us to buy it. We rarely ever rent movies, because it is a waste because we normally buy them anyway :). It made me want to go out into our woods and see what is out there! It definitely made the kid in me what to go explore!!!! I am going to bed now even though it is Friday. we have to be up early to go get ready for the parade that we are in tomorrow to represent Foster Care and Adoption! Marlee is riding in her first parade (a horse) on Sunday. I am sure we will have pics up soon! have a blessed weekend!
