Human Smore

Gene promised the kids at VBS if they could get 85 kids, he would allow them to make him into a human smore...chocolate syrup, graham crackers, and marshmallows! He gave them a break and on the last night he made it 70 kids. We made it!

Disgusting!!!

Free Tickets

Wes & I got free tickets to the Brian Free & Assurance concert tomorrow night. It had been mentioned that a bunch of us get the general admission tickets and all go together. Well, since I've had absolutely nothing else to think about, (ha ha) I kinda forgot it was this Saturday. So, I had the radio on yesterday, and they said all the tickets had been bought by a church and a couple of businesses and they were just giving them out to whoever called them. I didn't call them at first because I figured they were already gone. But, he kept announcing it, so I figured what would it hurt. We got two Artist Circle tickets...we could even meet and greet the group at the beginning of the the concert. La-te-da! So, after a "WILD" week at VBS, we're going to enjoy this!

We're also going tonight to look at a house/interview with the landlord. Pray that it works out...if it's supposed to. It's actually a house in our price range...

Life

What a weekend/coming week!

Saturday, our church had a baby shower. I received sooooo many nice things...pretty sure some went a little overboard! :) I know it's hard to resist all the cute little pink things they have out there...I don't have pictures of the shower (Mom has some on her site) because I'm getting copies from Amy. Here is all the stuff together before I packed it up...you can't even see it all because there were layers of things!

We really appreciate everything!!!!! Amy and Karen did an awesome job decorating too! However, Karen was a little stingy in not letting me keep the Longaberger baskets that were in the center of the tables filled with goodies! :) I did get to keep all the goodies though...

We started VBS last night. Always a fun thing to go to when you already have a headache...

We had 57 kids on the first night!

Gene & Angie Davis are the workers.

Theme: Camp-Wanna-Praise-Him
The little ones may not understand the stories and songs, but they sure like the snacks!

We also made a flying trip to Lebanon to see my Grandpa Bailey who isn't doing very good. While we were already there, we decided to go ahead and stay for camp Sunday. Wesley also started his new job yesterday.

Well, gotta get some things done...

Answered Prayer!

Wesley got a job!!!!! Praise the Lord! This "ole Worry-Wort" feels like she can actually breathe again! (I'm pretty sure there was a lesson on patience/trust for me somewhere in all that...There was definitely one on patience for Wesley as he has endured all my weeping and wailing during this time. It really was not a fun time for the "fat" one). He's on his way to take his drug test (hope his "addiction" isn't caught...he he) and orientation is tomorrow. He starts Monday at Cummins. A BIG thanks to Bro. Thompson & Jonathan Walden for giving him a good reference.
Now, the search is on for somewhere to live...one that doesn't make me put up our child/husband/car/arms/legs in order to pay rent. I didn't think it was possible for us to find higher rent than Carmel, but we did! Crazy!

30 Weeks

Here I am at 3o weeks looking so much larger than most women do at 40 weeks!!! I have only a few more days that I can actually go out of the house, because I can't find any clothes! Ok...honestly...what woman in their right mind would want to go around town, pregnant & huge, in a mini-skirt...that seems to be my options right now. Gonna have to go to Jo-Anns and pray they have a hidden pattern so my mom can make me some skirts. I'm huge...and one old man at church told his wife that I have the "waddling" down. I'd like to waddle over there and tell him...HA, HA Just kidding!! There's no denying my roundness! Oh well...

Wesley and I are getting very excited about meeting our little one...

Happy Father's Day!

Also, Happy Birthday to Heather!!!

Baby Shower #2

Heather, lifelong (just about) best friend, hosted a baby shower for all my Westfield friends. We had a good time and received lots of cute stuff! Homemade Turtle Ice Cream Cake...soooo yummy!!!

Measuring how big my belly was around...Sis. Stetler got it perfect!!!

Need a laugh?

I stole this picture from someone's blog that I have no clue who they are...

Once again...for all those whose life is going hunky-dorey and they have nothing to pray about, please remember this very stressed out, very fat, very emotional pregnant lady!!! She's had about all her nerves can handle...she's doing a great job taking after her mother and grandmother...

Sorry Baby Girl!!!...I'll try not to pass on the tradition! :)

And we're off to prenatal classes...maybe we'll win another prize! HA! (I'm now getting dilusional...)

I'm not even sure where to begin...this has been a crazy week!!! I'll just make it short and sweet...

Wesley and my cousin offered to roof my grandparent's house. They had a "fun" time doing this in between thunderstorms, hail, tornado's, snowstorms, etc. :) Ok...maybe went a little too far, but the weather was crazy! We got there Monday lunch time and they worked until Friday afternoon...

We had to pause the production and head to Illinois where his home church was having a baby shower. Upon driving through SCARY weather, we arrived in Illinois to be greeted by a tornado! (Baby doesn't like storms!!) Thankfully we didn't see it, but we couldn't get to his grandparent's house b/c of a tree blocking the road. So, out the men jumped out to help clear the road.

Half of the people couldn't come to the baby shower b/c of flooding and all the roads being washed out and closed. We had a good time anyways! Thanks Trish and Nancy...

We received lots of nice things...2 diaper genies, high chair, scrapbooking, diapers, diaper bag, baby monitors, toys...thanks a whole bunch to everyone. (Great Uncle Curt expanded his "bribery" gift...A Harley Davidson onesie, booties, and cap) :) HA HA they're cute...

Sunday evening we ventured back to Terre Haute so the boys could wake up early and get the roof finished. They ended up getting all the shingles on, but not before getting rained on and hail!

We have arrived safely back in Noblesville and dropped my cousin back off. We're hopefully going to head home tomorrow where it sounds like we've missed all the excitement! Check out Karen and Sheila's blogs.

I'm sure I've missed a bunch that has happened, but my mind is still swimming and I'm ready to relax...unfortunately, there's a bunch of things awaiting my arrival at home!

Senior Pictures

Warning: Brenda H...DON"T LOOK TOO CLOSELY!

I took some emergency pictures of Courtney today for our yearbook...she said the ones she had taken weren't "allowed." Her mom offered to give me some money...too bad it was Sunday! HA! Just kidding!
