Golf Lessons

Caleb has been taking private golf lessons for a long time. Andrew & Matthew started a couple of weeks ago. I asked Jeremy to take a picture of them in action for me... I think he did a good job. :)

New Scooter

I hate to say it, but we finally got around to ordering the twins birthday presents!! They picked out electric scooters on Amazon. I ordered them the same day, but Matthew's got here today and Andrew's won't be here until tomorrow.

Who needs a cart?

Tonight we went to the Dollar General Market for a few things. Instead of taking the cart out to the car, Jeremy and I handed each of the kids bags. I was walking behind everyone and thought it would be a cute picture for today. :)

Grandma and her grandbabies!

Picture time with Grandma! If you are wondering why my mom is holding a picture of a cat, it's because it is my brother's cat and he told her it was the only grand baby she would ever get from him! lol L to R: Michael- 6, Warren- 17, Matthew- 10, Andrew- 10, Anna- 16, Ethan- 3, Caleb- 13.

Baby Stats Boards

Word is getting out that I can do words on wood!! Another friend showed me a picture of a birth stats board and asked if I could make them. Of course I can! I love how they turned out!!

Turtle

About a year ago, I found a turtle on our back patio and showed it to Caleb. Caleb decided to keep it as a pet. I was thinking it would die after a couple of weeks, but the little guy is still here!! Caleb took him and his aquarium outside to clean it today and left the turtle in this cup, I couldn't get over how long its neck is, so I took a picture.

Playing in the Shower

Lately, anytime Ethan hears that I am in the shower, he strips down and jumps in with me. But, he doesn't jump out when I get out, he stays in there and plays forever!!

Helping Daddy Mulch

Ethan wanted to help Jeremy put new mulch in the flower beds today and was insistent that he needed his dump truck. The dump truck has been an inside toy since the twins were toddlers... it's an outside toy now that it is covered in black mulch.

Letter from Blackie

Ethan got a letter in the mail today from his chicken, Blackie. He carried it around all afternoon. I love how Blackie signed it with a footprint and sent him one of his feathers. :)

Meisch's House

Here's a picture of the next house we are building. It's a custom home for Ben and Karen Meisch. I love the way it looks and can't wait to break ground. :)

Harwell Twins Party

Today, Ethan and I went to Aniston & Amelia's birthday party. They were so cute eating their cake together. Nicole asked me to make their outfits, I told her I would do their shirts, but she had to make their tutus after I taught her how. I think they turned out really cute!

Golf Banquet

Tonight was Caleb's end of the year golf banquet. I didn't have my phone with me when the players were being recognized, so I snapped this one of Jeremy and Leigh-Anne Freeman doing the dishes afterward. Jeremy cooked all the food for tonight (there was 40-50 people). Everyone raved about the food and one guy even thought it was what Jeremy did for a living. lol

Matthew Pitching

Matthew pitched a lot last year when he was in the PeeWee league, but has played 2nd base most of this year. Tonight, he got to pitch because we were winning 11 to 1. Andrew is behind him playing 2nd base.

Aniston & Amelia's Outfits

Aniston and Amelia turned 2 on the 12th... so hard to believe they are already 2!! Their party is this weekend so I made them these little outfits as their gift. I love how they turned out.

Sweet Picture

After the twins game today, we were standing behind the stands talking to their coach. Andrew & Matthew decided to watch the game that was going on and climbed to the top of the bleachers. Ethan wanted to go too and followed them up there.

Dinosaur Egg

Janet sent this dinosaur egg home with the boys yesterday. You place it in water and the dinosaur slowly breaks out of the shell. Today, it's head is peeking out a little. Ethan has enjoyed checking on it throughout the day. :)

My Boys and Me

We drove down to Mt Juliet today to surprise Janet on Mother's Day. After spending a lot of time outside we came in and had the boys take baths before heading home. The boys and I were all piled up on the couch watching tv, so I asked Jeremy to take our picture... Ethan was not happy, I wish he liked pictures!!

Another Rainy Day

I thought all the rain was suppose to be here in April, not May!! While Ethan and I were leaving one of the twins baseball games tonight he was dragging his feet and walking really slow. I kept turning around and waiting for him and for most of the walk, he was like this twirling the umbrella. He could only see 6 inches in front of him, he did a good job walking in the right direction. :)

Peek-a-boo Yoshi

Ethan's latest thing to do with Yoshi is putting him places that he can't get out of. One of his favorites is sticking him in the cabinet of the desk and the other is putting him inside of his little dog bed. In this picture, Yoshi is sticking his nose in and out of a hole playing peek-a-boo with Ethan. Ethan was rolling with laughter!

Another Art Piece

A girl at church saw the sign I made for the auction and showed me a picture of a sign like this one and asked if I could make it for her. I think it turned out really nice. :)

Almost 30 gallons?!?!?!

I went to Brentwood today for a facial and had to stop to get gas on my way home. The gas gauge said "0 miles to empty" a mile or 2 before I got to an exit!  I was surprised to see that my tank is at least 30 gallons... it stopped at $100, so more could have gone in!!

Meeting Alex

The girl who's baby we may possibly adopt wanted to meet Jeremy and I so her grandparents drove her up to Clarksville. We met them at Starbucks. Her name is Alex and she is the sweetest thing!! The meeting went well and she went away saying that she really liked us and that if she decides to place the baby, she wants us to have her.

One of my CPOM friends put together a Girls Night Out for us at the Melting Pot!!! There's 4 of us that like to get together occasionally and we each invited a few friends. We ended up with 12 people going! I invited Beth and her daughter Gabby. I LOVE the Melting Pot!!! It's my favorite restaurant! YUM!!!

Corvette Museum

They decided to cancel today's soccer games at 10:00 last night! Wish we had known earlier so we could have gone home instead of paying for our hotel room. We decided to make use of the trip and headed over to the Corvette Museum before heading home. Caleb was in car heaven!

Rainy Soccer Day!!

We are in Bowling Green today for one of Matthew's soccer tournaments. We expected them to cancel it because it was suppose to rain all day and it has!! Andrew & Ethan made a little tent with the umbrellas, here is Ethan hanging out. We are staying the night in a hotel because he has more games tomorrow.

Watch Obsession!



Some people have a thing for shoes, Jeremy has a thing for watches! I'll never understand why one man would need 5 watches! He decided he needed a display for them so I bought him this stand on Amazon and it came in today.

Nashville Scavenger Hunt

A few months ago, I bought a Groupon for an interactive city tour scavenger hunt. You get clues sent to your cell phone and once you go to a place and find the answer, you get your next clue. Fred & Janet wanted to get together to celebrate the twins birthday, so I thought it would be a fun thing for us to do together. We met up in downtown Nashville and walked all over the place!! We stopped to eat at Hard Rock Cafe and went to a really neat candy store too.

Art Auction

A couple of weeks ago, a lady from church asked me if I could make and donate an art piece for a silent art auction at church. The proceeds are going to be used for a mission trip to Portugal. I came up with this and after the first day the bid was up to $100 and I had someone ask if I could make another one for them.
