The Garden Patch

Yesterday continued our busy week.  In fact, after work I went home to clean and practice the song for my brother's wedding.  We also went to see baby Parker all before I headed to church.  Luckily, we were able to squeeze in time for a little fun with the Lindsay Sisters: Emma, Macy, and Abbie!


Eli says he's going to marry Macy, and she seems fine with it. Ha!  Here they all are in front of the spider.


We used to meet Ashley and the girls every Tuesday at Chick-fil-A for lunch.  Of course life happened, and we just sorta stopped.  We still play, but not as often as we would like.  Luckily, they moved to closer to our end of town, so I see many more afternoon dates!


Today they all jumped around on hay caterpillar, went through the corn maze, and played in the fall beautiful fall weather.  


Can someone please tell me how in only two years these sweet babies went from looking like this picture to what you see below.  It truly blows my mind that when Ashley and I met, there was only Emma.  That's right.  She was pregnant with Macy, and I was expecting Eli.  


Now we have Emma, Macy, Eli, Abbie and sweet Ellie on the way!!  I truly cherish these sweet girls and the memories our families continue to make together.

A New Decade

Happy 2020, everyone!  I know I'm a month and a half behind, but ya'll, January was brutal!  Not brutal in a tragic kind of way but in a "life will wear you out" kind of way. It started off with the flu...times three!  Eric, Ellie and I had Flu B and missed the first week back to school and work.  Then Eli was diagnosed with Flu A two weeks later.  Thankfully, my in-laws stepped in to help so that we didn't have to miss any more time at work. On top of the sickness, we listed our house for sale. The work it takes getting ready for market is just crazy. But we also have people coming in and out of our home at all hours and it's just kinda overwhelming. Plus, we are finalizing everything with the builder. In full transparency, working with the builder has been the easiest part! Maybe I'll do a little update on the whole building process later this week.  Now that the dust has settled on 2020, I'm going to try my very hardest to keep this litt

Mother's Day Memories

I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day.  I want to start by saying that my heart and prayers go out to the "Mommies in Waiting" and to those who are missing their Momma on this special day.  You are not forgotten. We started Mother's Day at church with our crew, and we were lucky enough to be in the nursery.  We let Eli tag along, and he helped facility "Derby Races" around the table while the kids were on riding toys.  It was a hoot!  We also made cards for the mommies. We had some leftovers at home for lunch and then I spent some time laying out while Eric worked on the pool.  It was almost 90 degrees and the perfect way to relax on my special day! Eric made me a shrimp boil for dinner, and we took a family trip to Dairy Queen.  They also have presents coming later this week for me.  Basically, they are awesome!

Hit Me With Your Best Shot

Have I ever told you that Eli loves sports?  Ha!  I look back at him with baseballs and basketballs at 18 months old ,and it blows my mind that he's still so interested.   The thing is, he doesn't discriminate.  Baseball, basketball, football, soccer...you name it, we play it! Not only do we play sports all day, we also have to watch certain videos on Youtube.   We watch "Boys of Fall," while wearing a football helmet. We watch Alabama's "Cheap Seats,"  John Fogerty's"Centerfield," and Kenny Rogers,  "The Greatest" while holding a bat, carrying a ball, and wearing a batting helmet. And now, thanks to Space Jam, we have to listen to the movie sound track while shooting hoops!  That's a blast from the past! He hasn't found a song about soccer or golf...YET! And with all that playing, who has time to run inside for a potty break?  Not this boy! I never thought
