Better late than never... 10-05-08 03:52pm EST
Well, the kids and I just finished (finally) unpacking from our vacation. I hate unpacking. And the irony here is that in a couple days I have to start packing us all again. Ugh. This one's going to be a LONG trip...but we're splitting it up both ways, and I get to see her ~ TWICE ~ so it's all good. :-) We're just thankful for the built-in DVD player in our new van! That thing is a lifesaver!!!

We're headed to St. Louis, where we're also going to get to see them and them! Yay! I can't wait!!! It's been over 15 years! (Where does time go??? Can someone please tell me?!)

Oh, and my cousin is getting married, which is the main purpose for us making the trip. I guess it will be nice to share in their day and see some family, too, huh? ;-)
loveofjebsWow! I'm jealous that you get to see those guys! Have a great trip! 
loveofjebsBTW Love the pic below. 
southern_yankee_momHope we get to see you too! We will be out of town next weekend. 
wifeletSt. Louis is a long drive, from where you are - when we've driven to lectures in Tampa, we drive back all in one day. That's a LONG stretch, and you're driving a bunch of it!! Enjoy seeing them - give everybody kisses for me! :) 
stitchinmomLucky duck! Have a safe trip! 
sclineI know Val and Ed will be excited to see you! Have a great time! 
txwhittlecYea! We are excited to see you and meet your cute family! :) 
loruhamaI unpacked the kids the night we got home and had all our laundry done by the next morning and was thinking how on top of things I was. And because I was so proud about it, mine and Grant's suitcases are STILL waiting to be emptied in our closet. At least I have motivation to get it done and my house cleaned up this week! 
notcoolIt was great having him here. Hope things went well there. 
beavermomHI, Kristin! Robyn's mom here--Jonathan is here!!! Is there anything safe a nursing momma can take for a bad cold? 
graminatorWe're looking forward to seeing you! 
neentothebeanCan't wait to see you and your family, Kristin!! It has been too long:) I hope you all have a great trip here!! 
beavermomThaks for the help! I don't know why things are jumbling-my entries are doing that too! 
wifeletWe're going the second week in November - staying in a cabin, spending lots of time wandering around in the woods and shopping! (Those are 2 separate activities ... I don't expect shopping opportunities in the woods ...)

joes_wifeBeautiful family!!! 
loruhamaHey you. We're home. Great picture. Your hair is adorable. Everybody well now? We had a great time in Gatlinburg - it couldn't have been any better. Drop me a line when you get caught up. 
shelbysmomI'm so jealous! Our beach family picture was rained out!! What a great picture! 
graminatorBeautiful ... even the ugly bald guy! Beautiful beach, beautiful family ... I'm jealous! 
matermagistraThat is a great picture!

rebecca_mckay_howellI could DRINK that marsala sauce!! 
crazy_mamaBeautiful pic! 
heatherj81What a beautiful family! 
crazy_mamaHave you ever heard how Mitch was converted? My family is the one that taught him the gospel and let him live with us! We are that crazy family! 
angiepriceBeautiful!!! :) 
misssonjaThanks for your kind note -- I appreciate it! 
notcoolHe should TOTALLY bring him!!!!! Is it an option? I would watch him of course! 
notcoolBy the way that picture is wonderful! We really need a family vacation. I think I'm going to plan a camping trip. 
robynbobmGorgeous pic! Where are you? 
curliedone 
serenaYes!! we're expecting #4 any day now :) 
serenabtw- I love your family pic! 
pookyBeautiful family! I can't believe how big the oldest 2 have gotten (the only 2 I've actually met in person). 
pookyOh, and to answer your question...I really don't view myself as a democrat or a republican. I am very conservative on some things and very liberal on others...I guess you could consider me as independent. 
saraigkKristin thats a great picture! You should use that for your Christmas cards!

I'm doing something I said I would never do... 09-20-08 10:29pm EST

...I'm letting my son play tackle football.

Hey, at 8 years old, he's just TOO CUTE! ;-) He's been playing flag football for the last few years, and he loved it...at 8, they move on to tackle. And I think he loves it even more! (Surprise! LOL) His first game (a scrimmage, after the professional pics) was today. I have to say they looked great! His coaches are hard core, too! They are serious and mean business! They looked nice out there themselves, with their matching khaki pants and black polo shirts. ;-) (None of the other coaches I saw today looked that together.) Their team is the Eagles, and of course Daddy was so happy to have had the opportunity to hand pick Micah's jersey # a few weeks ago. ;-) (I'm sure a few of you will recognize its significance.)

So...we'll see how long Mama lets this go on...of course, Ken's first words as we were leaving the field today were, "See, you don't think he's going to get hurt at THIS age, do you?" Hmmmm...maybe not, but when do I need to draw the line? I have to admit, it's going to be harder than I once thought, because Micah just has too much fun...and he just looks too cool doing it! :-)

Don't you agree???
laurieojHe does look cute! He looks lots like both of you!!
Clay played his first soccer game today. He's five so of course he was cute running around not knowing what he was doing. :) 
becfieWe are deep into Field Youth Football this year. They do look cute, still little in their pads and helmets. Jimmy has bruises up and down his arms, but he thinks they make him look tough. Stay strong, they are boys, this is what they are supposed to do! 
notcoolHe looks awesome. Those shoulder pads are huge:-) 
shelbysmomI always said that if we had a son who played tackle football I would probably be cringing during every play!

He looks great in his uniform! 
loruhamaHere's the link to the friend who is posting updates as she visits Lauren in the hospital. 
susieHe IS Cute! 
crazy_mamaI have always said I wouldn't let my son play football but I secretly think I would and I would probably LOVE it! Good for you mom! 
robynbobmIt is hard to say no to something innocent that they like doing. I haven't made up my mind either way on football for Jonathan. 
wordwielderVery handsome in his uniform. I am scared Silas is going to want to play football! Right now he's content with soccer. 
lilyofthevalleyYou've been tagged! See my blog. 
sclineHe does look cute. I'm sure Ken is loving it! 
serenaWay to go Mom! Boys do NEED to be boys. They are always told to sit down, be quiet, and stop rough housing, etc. They need time to let their manliness shine :)

Please pray 09-19-08 12:35pm EST
for Lauren and Matt Bassford. They lost their baby girl early this morning.

Prayer is powerful and God can give them strength.
crazy_mamaThis is so sad. 
robynbobmI'll have to send them a card, though that seems like meager comfort. 
amyjane72i still can't believe it. i don't really know them at all (i went to singing school a couple of years with matt) but my eyes are wet with tears. 
tortillayes>>> prayer can help them feel held up in a way that nothing else can> i am so sad for them! 
lrfs611your tagged 
graminatorI love you! 
robynbobmI'm feeling fairly good. :) I am getting to the sore/uncomfortable stage, but I guess I am lucky I didn't get there until the very end. The midwives are laughing because we are constantly having to revise our house situation updates. They said they can always deliver in a hotel room. lol. 
robynbobmIt makes me tired too. :)
