Trevor and I have been blessed beyond measure with our two boys. We are thankful and humbled to be given the awesome responsibiliy of raising them into God fearing men. "Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it." Pr. 22:6. Please pray that we train them accordingly as we journey through parenthood. Lane is four now and has very naturally taken on his big brother role. He watches out for Luke, which is really helpful. Throughout the day I hear, "Mama, Luke's on the table, in the trash can, in your closet", or "Luke took his diaper off", etc. Spare time these days is rare, but they're so much fun. We hope everyone enjoys seeing the boys and we'll try to keep it updated frequently.

Toy Story Birthday Party

We thank everyone for coming to the birthday party and making the boys' day so special. They had a blast.This is Sherriff Luke and Space Ranger Lane ready for action!

We played "Pin the Part on Mr. Potato Head". Each child was blindfolded and got a turn to add a part. It turned out better than I expected.

Trevor got a big box from work and we decorated it to look like Buzz's spaceship. We dyed some boiled eggs green and put three eyes on them. They were aliens used in a race through the spaceship. The kids had to carry the alien in a spoon and go through the spaceship without dropping it.

Chattanooga

Last month we took the boys to Chattanooga with Tommy and Tammy. We all enjoyed the much overdue vacation.
This was Lane itching to get in the pool.

We went to Chickamauga Battlefield. It was a historic Civil War site. Very peaceful and lots of deer.

This is my Great Uncle "Sparky" and Aunt Jacquie. They live in Signal Mt. so we were glad to get to visit with them.

Ruby Falls



Rock City Gardens. It was hot and we were all pooped.


I had to get a picture of them touching each other and actually not fighting about it.

Southern Belle River Boat






Tennessee Aquarium



More pictures at Chickamauga. We liked it so much we kept going back.

I was asking the boys about their thoughts on the fish. Luke's comments were, "I want to eat those. I want them to be in my MOUTH!" We all got a big laugh.
