We had a great 2012.... KE is loving 5th grade making straight A's. W is a big first grader and is doing awesome. I took a job at N's school as a 3 year old assistant and LOVE it... N loves Kindergarten and is a mess! He's my free spirit as I like to call him. Loves art and music. My oldest neice got engaged and the wedding is coming up in May. Lots of excitement around here! Here is some random pics from the year....<br />

I can't believe it is already March! Time flies when you are having fun. This is T's busy planting season so he works 6 days a week. He is counting down the days until Turkey season.<br />
KE is still enjoying school with straight A's. She loves to read and has finished all of the Nancy Drew books the school has to offer. Now she is on to Hardy Boys. Instead of dancing this year, she opted to take gymnastics. Just recently we decided it was best for her to switch to tumbling. She wants to concentrate on eventually learning a back handspring. (Something I didn't do) I'm proud of her for putting herself out there and trying. She also does very well at girls' soccer. She is on the pink team and her other friends are on the purple. This is a very lax soccer league. Practice on Tuesdays and games on Thursdays. We may do one tournament a season. Just recently KE was recommended to audition for the Delta Children's Choir. She made it and we couldn't be happier for her. SO, needless to say, her plate is full. <br />
W is moving right along in Pre-K, so much that he insists on not going to Kindergarten. The boys attend a day school with smaller classes just like their sister did. We will wait to send them to her ("big") school until they are in 1st grade. I explained to W that if he goes to her school next year, he will still be in Kindergarten. He didn't like that. He is SO independent and mature for his age (5) . Just the other day I asked him to put my cup in the kitchen for me... his reply "Sure but you do have two legs that work." He is a mess.<br />
N is loving 3 year old pre-school. He and W both attend everyday until noon. Tuesdays they have what is called lunch-bunch where they bring a lunch and stay until 2:30. These are the days I squeeze in lunch with friends. N's big thing is reading his "state" book. It is a board book with flaps that tell you the state flower, bird and motto. He can recognize almost any state's shape and tell you which one it is. He also LOVES a little girl in his class to pieces. So much that he claims he will marry her. He went on and on about this one day that I finally told him that he could only get married AFTER he completes college. So now when he talks about it he says after college he will marry her. When I asked him what he wanted to be when he grew up he replied with no hesitation, "a daddy." Then he said "no, wait, first I'm going to be a husband." At least he has the order correct. <br />
As for me, I signed up to do the Couch to 5K.. I'm on week 4 and my knees are starting to hurt . I was fitted with the proper shoes and I just got inserts so I'm hoping those will help. I quit drinking soft drinks a week ago and with the combined running my body is already tanking me. This morning I had my second ortho appt and had my bottom braces put on. Talk about a metal mouth. I cannot wait to adjust to these nor can I wait to have straight teeth! I had braces for 3 years when I was younger. I believe my mouth needed a bit more attention at that time. I hope to have my mouth issues corrected in less than 2 years. Fingers crossed! <br />

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I used to be a huge blogger! I guess life (and facebook) has gotten in the way. Another reason I haven't blogged is because it's an act of congress to upload pictures on here! ugh. I will try again today. It may be my ancient computer too though. </span></span><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span></div><div align="center"><span style="font-family: Arial;">KE is loving 3rd grade and continues to have straight A's. The boys love dayschool and are growing too fast. We consider having number 4 but aren't sure we should. This is T's busy farm season ..Jan until April. I don't know which is worse... working in this freezing cold or heat of summer. </span></div><div align="center"><span style="font-family: Arial;">A week ago, I FINALLY (after waiting for about 6 years) went to tyhe ortho and had hardware installed on my pearly whites... I don't have a picture but I can assure you, they are awkward. All metal and I can't wait to see the results. I have a crossbite and teeth that have shifted since I had braces umteen years ago. </span></div><div align="center"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Here are a few random pics since November!</span><br />

Her burial and celebration of life was yesterday and it was wonderful. Kristina and Hamp are very loved. Sweet Layne will be greatly missed. I know I will miss my weekly snuggles with her, but she is in the ultimate home and we will see her again one day! What a glorious thought. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">To find out what you can do to support and honor Layne Grace's memory, go to her caring bridge page. It's under Laynegracegaston</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This week I especially want to give thanks for my own family.

I can say Iam blessed to be so busy! If anyone has been keeping up with Layne, you will know she is doing good! She has given a couple of scares but hasn't for a few days now. I try to go visit once a week but I can't let 2 weeks go by! Yesterday, Hamp and Kristina dedicated Layne to the Lord in their church. I saw this as just a reaffirmation of their ongoing dedication to God with Layne. I have learned so much from Kristina. She has been so strong and fully relies on God for that strength. SO many people love Layne and her family just through the testimony of faith they give through caring bridge. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

A tiny, precious miracle.</span></div>The Fab Fivehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05694154990768700813noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8971871991065092411.post-81640713674096396512010-10-16T20:45:00.000-07:002010-10-16T20:45:37.821-07:00Joy<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I spoke with Kristina this morning and she was in great spirits as Layne had a peaceful and restful night last night. Kris was able to hold her close the day before. This brings such joy to my heart for her. She said they were getting acquainted with the hospice nurse who just so happens to have been <a href="http://noahandjulieroberts.blogspot.com/2008/05/let-me-begin.html">Julie's nurse during their time with their little girl.</a> Julie and Kristina were brought together by God through a simple email and they have formed a bond that will never be broken. Julie was there for Layne's birth and has been there for Kris weeks before the birth to answer questions, pray or just talk. I'm very thankful for her friendship to Kristina. She has been such an encouragement. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">That brings us to <a href="http://shanebrayfamily.blogspot.com/">Ashley Bray</a>. I was having a BBTN show and talking with my hostess and friend about Kristina's situation back in August. She told me about the Bray family and what they went through. Well, Ashley placed an order with me over the phone and she was so sweet to tell me her contact info just in case Kristina needed someone to talk to. I took it straight to Kristina and Kristina had already read their story via blog world... So, one thing led to another and they begin emailing. Before Kristina went in, Ashley let her know that she wanted to be there. I will never forget when Kristina told me that . She was amazed that Ashley who did not know her, who lived over an hour away, wanted to be there for her. And she was! Along with her sweet husband. As we sat in the waiting room, we became acquainted and we have a few mutual friends. They are a precious couple. God has totally put these 2 ladies that have dealt with the same thing in Kris' life and it's amazing to see.</span><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Please continue prayers for the Gaston family. There has been much much joy already and there will be hardships to face. Layne's heart condition is considered severe. They are preparing to all go home soon. Her family has set up a caring bridge site. </span><br />

This is the baby that was thought not to make it to term having Trisomy 18. She is perfect. She is stable right now , breathing almost on her own with a little help from oxygen. When I left Kristina this afternoon, she was groggy and exhausted. It was a joyous day! SO many people are praying for her and her family. My prayer is Kristina and Hamp will be able to spend some one on one time with her. Her little life is indefinite but only God knows the outcome. </div><div align="center">HAPPY BIRTHDAY LAYNE GRACE GASTON!</div><div><br /></div><div align="center"></div><div><br /></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"></div><div align="right"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5528106015128613570" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEim1BlPpM9YznqZw7cL9AWEcSm8_2-jqmzmnejpH6VZMRiZ-DLniTkvXQcn6FfMLRY6GafIHgzLDpjhHyWMWR5pmkgdF3UetSXIEF4C0mNfiZg6SlJMsyuhl1EVfTrJwzm6SzHTmnf3-3Zz/s400/oct.+1+015.jpg" /></div><br /><p></p><p align="center">Also, here is a peek of the <a href="http://andreareedphotography.blogspot.com/2010/10/sweet-layne-belly-bump-love.html">family portraits </a>Kristina, Hamp and the kids took last week.

We have been on the go (as usual) and I just don't have the time to blog like I want. These pics will sort of catch you up from Sept 1st ( opening weekend of dove season) to this past weekend. You will see Wade's birthday being celebrated, KE and friends, a day of encouragement for Kristina given by her sweet and precious Sunday school class and then HOTTY TODDY! We signed up the kids for the Rebel Kids Club and they had the privilege of giving high fives to all the players before the game. We played in The Grove all day with good food, friends and family and didn't leave Oxford until 10 p.m. The kids did great! </div><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDEHTvzdi1_vnBhbjvNwD2emABD_cosmijKv6rpK1X9NS-YX2IEXAFgM4eQ1h3NOWVMXTHP36JOzOISYRh8ODDLp_L6A4R-_BF1VIzPa1pLbex1I6UFWQQKezltMaJUn2SeAH2KAyUKAG0/s1600/sept.+10+010.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

She just recently found out from sonograms and an amnio test that Layne has a chromosome disorder called <a href="http://www.trisomy18.org/site/PageServer?pagename=whatisT18_whatis">Trisomy 18</a>. This is a life-threatening diagnosis for the baby. She will be seeing her doctor once a week at this point or more. She is totally leaning on the Lord even though I know it's extremely hard for her and her husband to deal with all the emotions that they are experiencing. There is always HOPE! Layne may be one of the babies that is born and gets to enjoy her parents' love along with big bother and big sister. I'm asking for everyone reading this to please stop and pray whenever you think of this family and sweet Layne. She is so loved already. I pray the Lord sustain Kris when she feels totally weak and helpless. She is such a strong woman and has the support of a great family and friends. </div>The Fab Fivehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05694154990768700813noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8971871991065092411.post-37110964983255885372010-07-27T19:25:00.000-07:002010-07-27T20:29:24.162-07:00The Weekend<div align="center">We had a fun and interesting weekend.

WOW is what I have to say about this summer! It has been busy but so wonderful! And I'm pretty sad that I'm getting stuff ready for school to begin. We have been blessed with a new pastor at church who has a wonderful wife and 2 precious girls...my kids ages. (yay) We enjoyed 2 trips to South Carolina.. the first to my aunt's for The 4th and the 2nd with Torrey's family to Myrtle Beach. Although we loved it, we missed the gulf coast and can't wait to go back there next summer. </div><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6elLD_3VNNQIYVNEsA-_wT395Ueg8vY56bJir7pU0KtQT10BqbbJANXR6tmvXT7lZybgvsC7-9zVnbKFbfGcGuJ8-roZaTZJr4r-AuistKFsQU3nKg-Yikl5AEfkUvRItypuuZFoYK4gE/s1600/july+10+077.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5496545089328496242" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6elLD_3VNNQIYVNEsA-_wT395Ueg8vY56bJir7pU0KtQT10BqbbJANXR6tmvXT7lZybgvsC7-9zVnbKFbfGcGuJ8-roZaTZJr4r-AuistKFsQU3nKg-Yikl5AEfkUvRItypuuZFoYK4gE/s400/july+10+077.jpg" /></a><br /><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3m68cGoCfbKiArI-Vb7V-pnkF6qTXYa2yFXl8XVMGxPqTxlWhOVQ17xLDc-ob3OvOew0kF7T04-7Q34kda7J9mvRMDHfILhnXkfyPis6Zs9gAYnxmmVPY1JVaFeJcPaykNCJnVlm50kIW/s1600/july+10+068.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5496540979347552962" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3m68cGoCfbKiArI-Vb7V-pnkF6qTXYa2yFXl8XVMGxPqTxlWhOVQ17xLDc-ob3OvOew0kF7T04-7Q34kda7J9mvRMDHfILhnXkfyPis6Zs9gAYnxmmVPY1JVaFeJcPaykNCJnVlm50kIW/s400/july+10+068.jpg" /></a> Happy Independence Day!<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMSzr-rFbUH_wnln7_If3jE5VW19nC5-JNH-TzbA5B7qQ7Mme23DL7cR4sRhd654t7e4nKy8mxwjQKHGYrflkNDFvXz0Eevd3Ikjcj0NYd44b88KBk8Nu51qjlAK-X-ggGoizFTfr8Vn3a/s1600/july+10+041.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5496540361645872914" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMSzr-rFbUH_wnln7_If3jE5VW19nC5-JNH-TzbA5B7qQ7Mme23DL7cR4sRhd654t7e4nKy8mxwjQKHGYrflkNDFvXz0Eevd3Ikjcj0NYd44b88KBk8Nu51qjlAK-X-ggGoizFTfr8Vn3a/s400/july+10+041.jpg" /></a><br />My cousin Britt with little Britt<br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFkFg0H2xEKp4F373BCKqmywO4KXmwVS6g2LP6APQpO7cUmrHQV5IT8ZpA2LORa9u9IrMi2exk__d66smD2yRLK36xGjps8kRwwT09mV_HOduSnduId6bVkxZ03F3WbmaNTGnsO5ewYBQz/s1600/july+10+040.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5496539748134644242" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFkFg0H2xEKp4F373BCKqmywO4KXmwVS6g2LP6APQpO7cUmrHQV5IT8ZpA2LORa9u9IrMi2exk__d66smD2yRLK36xGjps8kRwwT09mV_HOduSnduId6bVkxZ03F3WbmaNTGnsO5ewYBQz/s400/july+10+040.jpg" /></a><br />My cousin's wives...

I don't have anyone close to me but the pictures are alarming. This is a town that is only a hour away from us. The weather channel just aired a story of a mother of 3 young boys who lived in a trailer. She gave her life by lying on top of a mattress to protect them underneath. Can you IMAGINE? My heart breaks. I think the boys were between the ages of 1 and 5.<br /><br /><br /><br />All of this and more going on while I'm worshiping with a wonderful group of ladies at Beth Moore's simulcast event "So Long Insecurity" I'm a huge fan of her's because she dares to be real. She has a passionate love for Jesus Christ that I can only strive to obtain.<br /><br />We focused on Eph. 4 Mainly verses 1, 17-24 and 32<br /><br />As always my eyes were opened and my heart was focused on these points:<br /><br />When we are easily offended, it is a result of insecurity.<br />Insecurity does not bring humility.<br />Insecurity is a form of pride. It makes us focus too much on ourselves (i.e Does she look better than me? Did they talk about me? Can I do this? )<br />When we are secure we believe that God forgives us, We believe that God loves us. In return, we are more able to forgive. We are more able to love. We won't need others to love us back in order to love them.<br /><br />We will not be secure on accident. We have to decide to use our wills to stay in the will of God. It's an everyday decision.<br />How is this done? Daily prayer and reading the Word.<br />The result: we will start responding to situations differently.<br />When we believe and know we are forgiven by grace, we forgive.<br />When we GIVE something away, we cannot also keep it.<br />Grace is the only thing we can give away and keep.<br /><br />I could go on and on but I think I have covered the high points. I must admit I struggle with this all the time. To not take everything so personally . If I had not accepted God's gift of Grace 12 years ago, there is no telling what type of woman I would be today. I don't think I would like her very much. Once we face that we can't save ourselves, we are freed into a new life of forgiveness and wonderful blessings.The Fab Fivehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05694154990768700813noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8971871991065092411.post-8209244655505764022010-04-05T14:32:00.000-07:002010-04-06T08:35:48.692-07:00About our weekend...<div align="center">I hope this finds everyone recovered from the gobs of Easter candy consumption. I warned my kids last night that our bowl of candy will not stay here until it's gone. I hope I don't seem cruel, but after a week, to the dump it goes. After major holidays, the kids get into this routine of thinking after every meal it's candy time. As much fun it is to have dessert, I don't think it's for every night. </div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center">My weekend started off with attending a wonderful baby shower for my high school BFF. She looks amazing and from the pic, you can't even tell she is 7 months pregnant! T took the kids to his aunt's house for lunch and egg hunt in Greenwood. That evening, we enjoyed family at his parent's house dying eggs and having dinner. </div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center">Easter Sunday we attended a packed house at church and then had lunch with the in-laws at the club. </div><div align="center">Wade started t-ball and his team name is the Rebels. Whoo hoo! Boy was he excited about that! He is alll about it too. T got him a new bat, glove and ball. Aunt Shannon gave him batting gloves, practice shorts and baseball pants for Easter... he loved it all. I'm so happy he is excited about playing ball. T's dad coached him when he was little and he breathed baseball. KE had her last soccer game last night and I forgot to take pics. She is looking forward to playing again this fall. Nate is into puzzles and is actually pretty good at them. He woke up crouping last night so we are headed to the doctor this afternoon to nip it. </div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center">I hope everyone has a wonderful week!</div><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6f2bgHiwLBcK-rmatF-AhptC1s6X6t1Y7KPsYYyh2Ta5ryI_KnH1O2jqjOT4BTwWdbjSEBQuPkZNur0_UuPJwedJj5HQAlH5xfC0k3kwFlX-PNeD-5r5jaDtQkTm3ERT05QerSg4_3bW-/s1600/march+10+001.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5456776489937783714" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6f2bgHiwLBcK-rmatF-AhptC1s6X6t1Y7KPsYYyh2Ta5ryI_KnH1O2jqjOT4BTwWdbjSEBQuPkZNur0_UuPJwedJj5HQAlH5xfC0k3kwFlX-PNeD-5r5jaDtQkTm3ERT05QerSg4_3bW-/s400/march+10+001.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuhc_nKFcmZDpoWsPMFt0IWdOU6hmIe7JKBVkSYnD4NksjNtSPJaOARNB4uhCXpGHiJs_cxKynCj2db0u7XAuSvPpG1mILvUevVd2RXduQYxoS7kqfwVfYZ_-rjX8r6tzxVWMDqXvtNp5g/s1600/march+10+002.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5456775860126529986" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuhc_nKFcmZDpoWsPMFt0IWdOU6hmIe7JKBVkSYnD4NksjNtSPJaOARNB4uhCXpGHiJs_cxKynCj2db0u7XAuSvPpG1mILvUevVd2RXduQYxoS7kqfwVfYZ_-rjX8r6tzxVWMDqXvtNp5g/s400/march+10+002.jpg" /></a> another high school friend, Emily did all the arrangements for the shower.

It's not a lovely thing to admit that's for sure. Everything is going as planned, and BOOM!..... something happens that wasn't planned. Feelings get hurt and you may stomp you feet even. Then God brings your tiff into perspective. He shows you that there are way more important things going on that need attention and prayer even. Life is not about what we want.... but what God wants of us. Next time things don't go the way you expected, it's not the end of the world. Seek His face and try to discern what He wants you to do. <br /><br />I don't know if any of you needed this but it helps me to vent :)The Fab Fivehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05694154990768700813noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8971871991065092411.post-50116094985847274492010-03-03T08:25:00.000-08:002010-03-03T08:28:03.386-08:00ScoopI found a cute website and thought you may like it too!
