Keep on Cheering....

because Wall made it to State!!! WHO HOO!!! Jason was nice enough to watch Kylee Friday night, so I went to Midland with mom and dad and watched Wall play Shallowater. It was such a good game, and just like Amy said, I had knots in my stomach like you are nervous because you are out there playing!!


Great Memories from the 2001 Trip to the Drum!!!


Let's Paint Austin GREEN!!!

CBS

My friend, Jaymie, invited me to CBS about a month ago. It stands for Community Bible Study. We had a lot going on so I wasn't just jumping at the bit to go, but I decided we would. It meets every week.
Well, God is really showing me great things over the past month I have been going!!
The first day during Lecture time the speaker said this quote that really stuck with me, "I can be content with filling a small space, if God be glorified!" And I think it really spoke to me because I have just finished reading Sarah Palins' book. She is so active and has inspired so many people, that it kind of made me feel "small" at the end of it. Not in a bad way, just me thinking I will never reach as many people as she has. Well, this quote just fits me. That I can be content in this small little world I fill, if God be glorified by by actions. So, I will strive to be a better wife, mother, sister, and friend. I will dedicate my days to the Lord.
Also, the second meeting, I left Kylee in the nursery, as I do everytime, and she started crying, hysterically. She has NEVER cried when I have left her. At the church nursery, the healthclub, MOPS, at families houses. I am talking NEVER. Well, she cried!! So I just left her, knowing she would be okay. I don't know if I was just a little emotional. We went into the beginning were this lady who has an AMAZING voice sings, and she was singing "How Great Thou Art." And I just realized, How Great is our God. My child is healthy, and alive, and even though she is crying, she is healthy!! And it was just overwhelming thinking about How Great our God is!! WOW!!


And this week, the speaker said
We are Jesus is the
Lost, The Way,
Ignorant, The Truth,
and and
Dead. The Life.
I am really enjoying it, and am learning a lot!!

Life is Good!!

We finally have internet back up at our house. The internet was in the office on the NW part of the house, well West Central charges $50 to come out and move the connection and wires to another room, so Jason thought he would do it himself. We wanted it in the new playroom, in the south room of the house. Total opposite corner. So Jason pulls it out of the wall, and runs the cord through the attic and it of course isn't long enough. So we bought another wire and they were going to 'sauter' it together. Well, after that, the internet still wouldn't connect; I called WCW and they basically thought we were idiots for trying to move it ourselves. But I mean at one point I was aggreeing with the guy. Well, Jason fiddled with it a little more, and here I sit on the floor in the playroom, BUT we have the internet.

The playroom is completely done I just need to clean the floor really good, and then maybe Jason can move stuff in. I ordered some shelves for storage from Office Depot. Weird, I know?? And they are black, scary. That is what Jason thought would look good. They should be here TOMORROW!!!
I am going to have a NIECE!!!! I love GIRLS!!! And my really, good friend, Marlayna, is having her baby today. In fact, Kenzie should be here!!
The sunshine the past few days has been more than wonderful!! I am longing for the warmth of SPRING and SUMMER!!
We are going to the RODEO this weekend with about 8 other friends so that will be a lot of fun!! Looking forward to that; Jason, not so much!! :)
All in all, life is good right now!!!

It's been a fiasco!!! I said I wanted Yellow for the wall color, and you know how it doesn't ever look like what you think it will look like!! Well, I picked a color and Jason painted it; 2 coats and everything, and it was BIG BIRD yellow. Exactly what I did not want!!! Yikes!! So he was so sweet to let me pick a different color. So this is much better.
And they went and picked up the wood floor today and got this much done. I am really liking the way it is turning out despite all the dusty foot prints.



Josh got a new CAMARO!!! We took it for a spin tonight, and I got it up to 72 and paniced and decided that was fast enough, so we cruised around at about 50!! LOL!! :)






Kylee going for a spin!!


BABY UPDATE

I went to the doctor today, and I am 13 weeks and 2 days!! He heard the heartbeat with the doppler thing on my stomach; it was fast and strong, just like it should be!! He said everything looks great. Next time we go in we find out what we are having!!! :)

I am thinking it is a BOY and Jason thinks it is a GIRL!!!

Just News....

Room Update

Everything has been done; tomorrow Jason goes to buy the paint, and then the floor, and then that could be it. Well, besides trim, base boards, painting the interior doors, and painting the siding outside. But closeeeeeeee to be done!!

Major decisions are having to be made on my part right now. Not necessarily major, but fun decisions.

Theme: Dr. Seuss, color theme like this: http://www.potterybarnkids.com/products/dr-seuss-quilted-bedding/?pkey=dboys-quilts


Walls: Yellow

Curtains: Red and White Canopy Stripe kind of like this



Other than that there really wasn't a way to incorporate more color. So, mom has a small, upholstered rocking chair, and I might recover that in some blue fabric. And my friend, Jaymie, has offered to paint a small something on the walls for me!! :)
Other News:
Jason asks Kylee, "Where are your toots?" and she points to her diaper!! How lovely is that!! We may not know where our nose is, but we know where are "TOOTS" are!! :)
Kylee and I joined the CBS Bible Study last week. It was good, and I think it will be fun to go to. The studies are kind of hard for me for some reason. I've had Jason help me every night.
In fact right now, we have a LOT of Bible Studies going on. Here is what we are doing:
Sunday Mornings before church: Reading a book, I can't remember the name of it :)
Wednesday: CBS
Thursday Nights: we are both sitting in on a Intro to Ethics class taught by Dr. Barry Creamer, from Criswell. He flies down every week just to teach the class. He is a genius, no kidding aside, and the class is very difficult. But thank goodness we are getting a grade, but we do have to read alot for that.
And we are going to get to Co-Facilitate a "Dateable" series on Sunday Nights with our youth group. Should be fun, but guess what!! YEP!! We got to read a book for it!!
Anyways, we are just moving right along here! I think that is it for now!!
Hopefully next time, we will have pictures of the room!!!
