Blessed to be called a Mommy

I am so incredibly blessed to be called a Mommy.  My girls and Justin are my favorite people in the world.  This year's Mother's Day was very special and a lot of fun.  The weather was perfect and I was able to spend the entire day with my girls, Justin, and then the evening with my parent's too.  Justin and the girls got me a beautiful necklace (with some help) from Tag You're It Jewelry.  I've been eyeing their products for almost a year now.  It's a hand stamped metal square with a copper heart on it and Morganne and Kaelynn's names.  I love it.  I then got to take some photos of my parent's at a nearby business that has an old antique truck sitting out front.  Mom wanted some pics with the truck because it was made the year she was born and she and my Dad haven't had their pic taken together in quite a few years.  Other than the direct sunlight, which isn't really great for taking photos, it was a fun outing.   Here are some photos from the day.  Unfortunately, our computer is getting "full".  It was a gift, that we graciously accepted, but it's old and doesn't have much memory or RAM.  So, with all of my picture taking and software, it's begun to act up and not allow crisp uploads.  So, the pics are a bit fuzzy.  We are hoping to invest in a new computer with some of the extra mowing money coming in.  Hopefully....  Hope everyone had a good Mother's Day.  I am very blessed to have an awesome one myself, and to be called a Mommy by two beautiful girls.  God is so good. 

Too busy to post

I know it's been a while since I've posted. Truly we've been extremely busy lately with Justin's lawn business taking off and dodging the enormous about of rain; I've worked a couple extra hours and Easter weekend added it's own amount of good stress.  Justin taught our Easter Sunday lesson at worship.  He did a great job.  We did our own version of an Easter egg hunt at worship with the kids and went through the "Resurrection Egg" instead of candy and toys. It was a great way to get all the families involved and go through the crucifiction story.  We then went and had dinner with my grandfather at my parent's house.  It hit me harder than at Christmas with Grandma's absence this year.  I guess Easter was always a time when they would be around and her absence was definitely felt this year.  On Easter we got word from my uncle that my cousin Rebekah had chosen to be baptized.  So the next night we headed south to be there for her on her special day.  We are so proud of her and her commitment!
Everyone once in a while I have an idea for something to blog about and then I never get around to posting anything.  Currently I'm sitting watching TV while my two girls are not feeling well and both of them are taking morning naps- VERY unusual for Morganne.  So, we are taking it easy today and looking forward to a productive (hopefully rain free) week.  God bless!
