March/April 2008

March & April were crazy months...
Chance had his tonsils out the day before his 11th birthday!! Needless to say - not party - so we decided to do what we've done in the past and that is postpone his birthday until the summer - so on the last day of school we will have a end of the school year party/birthday party!!

I went to Atlanta for work and fun! I worked an event and after spent the weekend visiting friends:


I visited Terry & Mike and their puppy MoJo - we had a GREAT time catching up and seeing different parts of Atlanta!! MoJo was my new best friend!! I can't thank them enough for all they did to make my visit so much fun - we spent an evening out at a comedy show and shopping the next day!!

Mike, Terry and I met up with my other friends in Atlanta - Anne, Andy & Zoe - we went to dinner and after dinner I went home with Anne and her family...we had a GREAT time catching up as well - I especially enjoyed spending time with Zoe - she is truly an Amazing little girl - she loves to draw, play games and just have fun! We went to the Atlanta Aquarium and then to the Varsity for lunch before I had to head back to the airport - it was a FUN filled four days!! Anne & Andy I hope that our little girl grows up to be just like Miss Zoe!!

Easter was early this year - we had a GREAT time visiting all of our family - Bobby informed me that he is too old for the Easter egg hunt - so this year the eggs that usually lead to where the baskets are hidden were hung in a bag on his bedroom door and he had to find his Easter basket all on his own - it was rather fun to watch especially since the Easter basket was in the bottom of the laundry - he must have checked there several times before he decided to take the laundry out...I told him if he wants the basket then the least he could do is find it...one of these years he is going to tell me he is too old for the basket as well but for now since he still wants the candy he will continue to look for the basket!
Chance did an Easter egg hunt at his Mommom & Poppop's and the squirrel found the egg first - look what it did to what was in the egg (& no not all of his eggs had money in them but this one the squirrel wanted!!)

In April we (Terry, Lizzy, Chance & me) decided to take a road trip and we headed to Busch Gardens in Virginia.

January/February 2008

We always have a lot going on and January/February 2008 was no different! Chance participated in Wrestling and Basketball - he basically had practice or a game/meet every day for two months!! He was very determined to work hard so that he could do well....



Chance may be little but he is tough!! He's weight was 57 lbs but because he was in 5th grade the weight class he had to wrestle in was 62 - 65 lbs - he did pretty good for being so little. Chance's wrestling team won their first school meet in 2 years - they are a very small group and it is hard to compete against a team that can fill most of the weight classes - ...the team had 7 pins and 7 wins by default or points - Chance was able to be part of the win.

This is Chance' basketball team - they only won one game but they had a lot of fun!


Lexi & TinkerBelle sharing the new bed very nicely!!

The band (KNOXX) is a group of friends/neighbors - they are a lot of fun to listen to!! We have a GREAT time when we go!!

January 17th Erica (my GREAT-niece) turned ONE!!


February 17th Dylan (my GREAT-Nephew) turned ONE!! TinkerBelle turned TWO in February!! Bobby & Tink posing for her birthday picture!!

Lots of Birthdays this month but there was ALSO one VERY IMPORTANT date that happened in the month of February - we were officially logged in for TWO YEARS!! Still not sure when we might be getting our referrals - but if we are lucky it will be in the 2008!!

Lots of other fun & exciting things happening but I will save that for another post!
