updates

Sorry it has been so long since I have posted. My little sister was married on Myrtle beach, SC That was alot of fun and then her reception was in greenville where I made the wedding cake with my Aunt Tina's help. I promise to post pictures when I can.

I stayed in Greenville for the past five weeks working with the Army. Thomas lost his job and I was trying to make sure that we had money to pay the bills without having to dig into our savings. While I was gone the kids were passed from the Hood's to the Caldwell's to Thomas and they were spoiled rotten(thanks guys). Now everyone is home and we are trying to get ready for school and the new baby coming soon. Tyler starts kindergarten in two an a half weeks. I still have to get his school uniforms and new shoes. I am also trying to work my premier jewelry business even more so if any one wants to have a show I would be glad to do it for you. I promise to post more in the future.

Dear Mom..we miss you...

Mommy,

Thursday we went on a very long ride in your van we washed it for you. Daddy had to meet with a guy named Mike somewhere really far away (Summerville). You are working still..we miss you a lot..Daddy is mean he pops balloons. You left us alone with Daddy, Mommy we thought we liked Macaroni...not so much now. We are hoping you will be back soon (Daddy says five days..but he said that last time you were gone all the time, but your not fighting the bad guys this time). Mike had a girl named Lauren with lots of My Little Pony toys..Ainslee loved it. It was a lot of fun, we got donuts with a ton of spinkles (we like Daddy now), they had cartoons on and a big pirate there. Then very yummy cheesy pizza for lunch, Ainslee liked Mike's pizza better (Pineapple and Ham, yuck!). Our favorite part was the park we went to for a big break, they had a merry-go-round and big swings..we went really high. Last for dinner played at Burger King and ate more Macaroni. That was a lot of play time! It was a long ride home, we got to watch the Bee Movie! Please Mommy hurry home..we love you..

Your Prince and Princess..

Guess What?????

WE ARE HAVING A ....................



BOY!!!!



Thats right we are having a boy. Tyler was so excited when they told us. Ainslee almost cried she is still so sad. She said that her friend Maggie is her sister. We all thought that it was a girl but I guess someone had different plans..

Fun in the sun!!

We went to the beach again and it was actually windy enough to fly the kites that my parents got the kids. Tyler loves to fly kites especially since his is a big dragon.



They love the beach so much they did not want to leave.



Ainslee's kite did not want to fly I guess hers just needed a little more wind.

Daddy's little girl.

We bought a few fun water toys for the kids we got a slip-n-slide and a sprinkler. It is so hot here so it is good to have something to cool them down.

They never really got the hang of the slip-n-slide Tyler was doing the low crawl for a while.

They loved the sprinkler too. Ainslee loves it so much it is now filled with sand!!

Last day of school :(

Tyler had a great last day of school they got to play outside in the sprinklers. Since it had rained all day the day before they ended up playing in the big puddles also. Then the came inside and had ice cream sundaes and watched Finding Nemo.

They all colored on this big paper. The little girl next to Ainslee is Reese she was really starting to like Tyler near the end of the school year. It was hard to believe how much of a ladies man he was at school.

Tyler and Ainslee enjoying their ice cream. Yumm!

Donnie really liked Tyler he was a great kid.

Mrs. Allen, Tylers angel teacher. She really was awesome I hope he has a teacher just as great next year.

Mrs. Scott the Sweetest lady ever she would always talk to Ainslee and want to see how she was doing. The kids really loved her.

I cannot believe it is over. This year went by so fast and I will miss everyone so much.

Our little Graduate!!

Tyler graduated last Thursday from Effingham county High School's Pre-K Program. We are very proud of him. His class scored the highest in the county. He already misses his friends but we hope he will be able to see some of them next year.

This is most of his class I was sitting in a bad spot to get the whole class in one shot.
Tyler and the Principal of the High School Mr Ford

They had these pictures along the walk way when you walked in. We actually got to take Tyler's home so he has this in his room now.

He was so excited to be there. I actually won most involved parent this year. That was a big surprise for me.

flour flour everywhere!!!!

The weekend that we had General conference we were trying to listen to the last session. Little did we know the kiddos were in the garage getting into my food storage. This is what happens when the kids find a 5 pound bag of flour and decide to have fun with the whole bag!!

Please excuse the mess in the garage they didn't wait till we cleaned it out.

Thomas was not happy that they got it in all of his tools.

I spent long time cleaning this mess up. Now they are not allowed to go in the garage unless we are in there with them.
