St. Paul, AR

I decided at the last minute to go to St. Paul this year. I didn't do much of the work. Most of the raking was done when we got there and the guys were mowing and weed eating. Darn it. ;) I haven't been in several years. (We get busy w/kids.) We have a lot of family buried in that cemetery. Like my great-grandparents. It is way out there though...it was good to see those that went. I haven't spent any time w/dad in so long I couldn't even tell you...

I think we all know how I am w/pictures. I took a few before we got to wet...

Maci (I think most of you know I have a little sister, right?) collected a bunch of tadpoles...I think they were all dead by the time we made it home. She is a mess! Dad has his hands full w/her that is FOR sure..


This is my aunt Sue, cousin-Betty, and aunt Jeanie


Gregory men shooting the bull as usual (Dad, Jack, Mason & Kevin)


This is Diagan, my cousin, Curt's boy...he is so cute but he REALLY needs to cut his hair..bless his heart


This my great-aunt Lucy and I...I so love her!!

17 years....

We've had good times and Lord knows bad times...but we have stuck it out. I can honestly say I'm at a point where I feel more blessed and happy than I have in years. I'm looking forward to the rest of our lives...Happy Anniversary Randy!!

Graduation....

Wow, what a fast school year this has been. I wanted to send a special Congrats out to Savie Adams, Christina Lovell, and Jordan Fowler! I wish you a lifetime of love and happiness!! May God Bless you always... We love you much!!!

We went to graduation Saturday to watch Jase Graduate. Hard to believe it's already that time. We love him as one of our own and we are so very proud of him. He leaves June 21st for the Marines. We pray God watches over him and protects him always...
Congrats Jase, We love you much!!!











Kacey wanted her picture taken w/Madison & Logan...she LOVES pictures as I think most everyone knows by now...

Madison's 1st Cheer Camp

They had stunt camp and the theme for this year is Super Hero. The squad came up w/ideas for shirts and I think they did a great job. I can not remember the entire story behind the shirt but It has the shield, a strong brick wall (like building a family) spider web that starts off small and broken but gets stronger as the squad does, and it also has the verse Phil 4:13 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me inside the ribbon. Pretty cool huh?

Happy Mother's Day

I just wanted to upload a few pictures of my momma. I know how lucky I am to have her. I thank God for her always. She is my one true thing. Not only is she an awesome example of unconditional love..she has the biggest heart of anyone I've ever met. She is a true inspiration and I am so very blessed she is my mom.

I love you, Momma! Happy Mother's Day!!!

I wish this picture wasn't so dark. It was midnight the 4th of July and it was POURING down rain and we are at Worlds of Fun in Kansas City. The rain was cold but the fireworks were amazing and it was good memories for sure.


This was our girl's trip for Kacey's 30th b-day party


On vacation 2010


On my birthday


At the 2010 Race for the Cure

I celebrated the 11th anniversary of my 27th b-day

I had a good birthday this year. Randy, his parents, and my work friends gave me $ for our Dallas shopping trip (Madison didn't want a sweet 16 party. She wants a Dallas shopping weekend.) Work gave me cash and I got flowers.. and of course we had a good food day w/my favorite cake! Randy and the kids took me out to eat and for Andy's! It was so yummy!! Then last night we did dinner and a movie w/the girls. We ate at Beef O Bradys. They make really good wraps! Then we went to see Something Borrowed. I loved it!

This is our crew for the evening.
Jennifer, Kathy, Madison, Sam, Casey, Kacey, Angie, Stephanie, Me..and mom!


Thank you everybody for being so good to me for my birthday! :)

2011 Race for the Cure

It ended up being wonderful weather for the Race for the Cure this year. Last year it rained so hard the entire time we were soaked to the bone!

Sam, Jordan, Madison & Taylor were there for Teens for a Cure. Taylor's shirt was to cute..it was black and had hot pink hands kind of on the side like reaching around to the front and it said save second base.


This was the 1st year they had a 10k. Randy ran it in a little over 47 minutes. One of his goals for this year was to be under an hour so he did great!


Kevin, Mom, Randy, Ethan & I before the race.

Easter & Kalie's 14th b-day

We celebrated Easter and Kalie's birthday at Kevin & Kara's house this year. :) I took some pictures and then I stole some from mom...as usual we were missing Carrie and the boys. I miss them so!

Ethan, Kalie, Madi, Austin & Hannah being silly...

2011 Track season is over...

After track was over the HS coach asked Logan, Justin & Lloyd to come to the HS district meet. They were excited and couldn't wait to go. After they got there and realized most of the HS boys only joined track to get out of school they were a little bummed. Kind of sucks to be the only one in a group event that cares about competing. They still did really well. Logan tied for 5th in the high jump. He also got ribbons in the 400 meter and I think the 4x400. Randy is much better at keeping up w/his stats than I am. Esp when there are several events and I get them all confused. :)
