Lake house



Today I'm grateful for..


The wonderful couple of days we had at the lake house this week. Everyone had a great time and we got to spend lots of time with the kids.

Having Josh home for an extra day this week, that little bit of extra time makes all the difference when you're missing someone.

Calli made the JV Cheer Squad at Harrison!!!!!!

The wonderful life I'm living.

An awesome phone conversation with Barb, catching up, feeling proud, and knowing it's only gonna get better :)

Being grateful every day.

Finding balance.

Our backyard pool which makes yard work in the summer so much more fun! We work in our swim suits and when we get too hot we just jump in and cool off, then back to work again! fantastic.

The awesome deck Josh is getting ready to build around the pool for easier access to the water, and a nice place for us all to sit together and enjoy our pool.

Creating space for family and friends where we can all hang out and enjoy each other.

Michelle and Craig finding the perfect house for the perfect price in the perfect place, while they're in SJI, .....in advance. :)

Lisa's wedding being perfect and just the way she's always wanted it to be, in advance.

Good things are happening for the people I love.

Americus Girls Float Trip 2008





Today I'm grateful for...


All day with all the girls from Americus!

We had a blast on our all girl float trip. We enjoyed lots of laughter, good food, good conversation, lots of relaxation, a whole lot of sunshine, nature and fun.

It was a beautiful day.

Good things are happening for the people I love.

Today I'm grateful for....

Lots and lots of family time.

Watching Taylor fly around the backyard on the mini bike.

A great dinner with Michelle, lots of conversation, lots of laughter, exciting news, and finally getting her camping gear back to her.

Getting our new pool installed right now!!! By the end of the week we'll be swimming in our back yard yay! :)

Josh being gracious enough to build a deck around the pool on his days off.

All the fun I had on my all girls float trip Sunday. 6 hours (which btw, flew by, seemed like we were out for maybe 2 hours) anyway, 6 hours of giggling, conversation, sunshine, relaxing, and sharing good food. Oh, and the guy who shot water balloons at us from shore using a giant sling shot! So much fun!

Kathy's secret and everything going well.

Safe travelling for Jones and Craig.

All the flowers blooming in my yard.

That Josh loves his job and is continuing to do well. ... Josh selling, selling, selling and winning the bonus offered for top seller this month, --in advance :)

My sisters are healthy, happy, and doing well.

All the intermittent rain we've had so late into the summer making our yard green and keeping the flowers blooming.

Good things are happening for the people I love.

You my little water bug, you.
