Just stuff!

Here is my baby girl. This spring soccer season is almost over and so I took my bran-new camera and took their pics at our last game. She is so cute. I started a journal for her when I had her. I got the idea from my best friend. So as soon as I was able to get 2 min. away from her I started writing about anything she was doing that was different.
I soon started adding a lot of my health stuff in there too. Its so far from her understanding for me to talk to her now but when she is bigger I want her to know that I truly did like being with her and playing with her. However due to my health, Im not always able to just jump up and play. So I feel if I write all of it down, when she is older she will get it. The number one reason I wrote about my health issues for her is because, most of my ilness' are hereditary. My mother still has no idea why she had a hysterectomy or what kind of arthritus she has and all that. So I wanted to write down what I have so she will be able to let her Dr. know so it will be much easier for her to be diagnosed and treated if she has something like my stuff. Anyways, I am so blessed to have her. She has brought so much joy and truth to my life. My life was surrounded by so much negative things and I wouldnt stand for myself and I was so tolerable to almost anything. Now its just so "fun" and I have fought a lot of people for her and I tolerate only what is healthy for her. I love me because of her. I am happy being me now that my life has turned this way.

The Vestals: Mothers Day!

The Vestals: Mothers Day!

Mothers Day!

So here I am again. Its mothers day and we have taken our moms out to eat. I just happened to be on the phone with my daughter who is directly behind me.(she really likes to use the phone when she can see what the person she is talking to looks like) My mother wants to snap a pic with my mothers day gift and couldnt wait till my baby girl gets done using the phone.
Speaking of mothers day gifts, my husband got me a new HD digital camera 12 mega pixals. The darn thing will do everything except get up and walk around for me. I want to show you why I feel like I live in the most beautiful part of the country.




This is my moms back yard! What a view! This is where I grew up. The have cows to look at and it may even storm a bit later. What a beautiful backdrop. I am falling in love with my new camera. Thanks dear!

Another party...for me?

So here I am getting pampered by my daughter. We had a GS pamper party today where all of us GS mothers will get to have some special treatment. When we first went in we were to be seated while our little girls made us a crasage. Then we sat at a table while our girls made us a plate of food, then on to manicures and nail polish. From there on to makeup and then the after pics. It was so cute! We wont say how my 5year old did with makeup but none the less I wore it all afternoon. It was just precious.




Here we are just posing after our makeovers was finished. I do feel pampered! I feel very blessed to be taken such good care of but more blessed to be a mom at all. She takes such good pride in everything she does and I am so proud of here. I love her and I love being her mommy. Happy mothers day all you wounderful mothers.

Tea anyone?

So here we are at our annual end-of-the-year Girl Scout Tea Party. It is not a typical GS thing but our troop leader does this for our area troops every year. It was absolutely beautiful. We loved dressing up and going out with just the girls in our family. It was Me, Shyanne, Tina (my sis), Mom, and my mother in law. I made several pics of course and here are some of them...






We had a 5 course meal along with hot tea. There were real tea pots full of hot water. We had a nice crystal bowl filled with different veriaties of tea. Cute little sugar cubes.







We had pro pics made and put into frames for each person. We had our very own table for just the families to be alone. Nice music played in the background to mellow the mood. (Mostly Kenny G) It was soooo nice. I truly appreciate the lady for doing this for us mothers.







I had a blast! Ironically our local school's 8th grade prom was also tonight so we just kinda felt like we fit in. I had to sub most of the week and the prom was on the hot list. It was decorating crazy for the last two days. They had an Egyptian theme for the prom. The decorations were absolutely beautiful.
Our Tea Party will always be something we will remember. It will be a memory we will always cherish. We truly did have a great time. It was remarkable!

Just some small talk

This is my little angel at church on Easter Sunday. We try to ga all out for Easter. We all get new outfits and really get into the festivities. This is the second year we have wore pink but there really isnt many other colors that look good on all of us. Even Gabe is cute in pink.lol. We wore green last year but yellow and pink are usually the ones we go for.
So I am very tired today. Kinda crazy day! Once I finished with the school stuff I went to my dads and we planted potatos, squash, tomatos, and watermelons. Its tuff but seems the way our economy and gas has went a bit stupid we are terribly excited that we will be able to stay fat even though we may be broke. All my family are hunters so i wont even have to be a vegitarian. Yipee!
I am glad our new friends from CO are enjoying our beautiful Tennessee. Im a bit imbarrassed at how my husband acts, but glad they get so tickled at his goofyness. I am glad he has such a sense of humor. He is silly like that all the time. I will write more when I know more. C-Ya!

This week in my life!

Well hello everyone! I have really strugled with what to put on here but I am working it out. Today I had to get an MRI done for my knees. I have worried so much about people thinking I take advantage of my healthcare. I am not. I do no like pain and if I have it so badly that it takes away time from my life and my daughters life then Im going to get it fixed. I love to research and maybe I get into it more than usual with medical stuff but not to worry, I will be OK. I didnt work a great whole bunch this week but sure have next week booked up. That couldnt be much better because I have a quite large camping trip planned in June and I can hardly wait.
We had some friends over tonight and we had a blast... Her little boy came in and decided my house was "junky". Yeah Yeah so I havent done so much house work this week. He is so cute... and appropriate! I really like my child being around those perticular friends. The reason is because they are so well manered and polite. Unfortunately I do already have to worry about her frends. Good thing is that she as found a few really great ones. They are just crazy about each other.
We already have a huge weekend planned. We canceled our soccer game for tomorrow. Shy's cousin from Nashville is in this weekend so we have a bit of fun stuff planned for that. We hope to have a great weekend and tons of fun. Wish us luck!
