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!

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday to my wonderful Mother! This blog wouldn't be able to contain all the incredible things I could say about her, so I'll just keep it simple...

WE LOVE YOU MOM!!!!!

Busy times!

We have been very busy already this week!! I have started working on the school's yearbook and we began last night to set up for our HUMONGOUS Jr. Church yard sale. It is unbelievable the amount of stuff that people have brought in! There's more coming, too!!! If you're in the area, you definitely need to come by and shop!
Looks like that's about all we'll get accomplished this week...school work & sale. Also, Nancy, Gary, Nathan, & Trish are all coming this weekend. Good thing I did some cleaning last week...can't tell though...SIGH!

Extra, Extra, Read All About It

I would love to tell my faithful blog-readers (the whole 2 of ya) that I have some wonderful, earth-shattering news, but alas, I have failed you! Graduation was last Friday, thus my career as a "teacher" has officially ended...for now. I'm looking forward to my next career...the overpaid, hard to find, sought & fought after position of being a "mommy." :0) Guess my teaching career is far from being over!

We're on vacation this week, but not doing anything overly exciting. Mom and Rachel came down Sunday evening and we went to Brown County and goofed off around here. Tomorrow, Wesley takes a job entrance test and then we're headed to mom's for who knows what kind of fun little jobs for Wesley. :) (I think I overheard painting involved...)

Next week, our Jr. Church is having a yard sale, so I need to finish up the sorting here. I'm helping set up all week and Wes's family is all coming for that. Hope they don't mind making their way through a path in the house...it's a DISASTER.

This summer is going to prove very interesting, I'm afraid. If you hear screams or loud rumblings, it's just one super, over-sized pregnant woman getting overheated and stressing about everything! Keep praying for us...especially Wesley! (He's the one getting to deal with the above description).

100th Post!!!

For my 100th post...

Only 100 days left in the baby countdown...as long as she arrives when due...

Jr/Sr Banquet

Last Thursday we had our Jr/Sr Banquet...Doesn't Wesley make a handsome, distinguished looking teacher...hands all folded...standing straight and tall...just about looking like one of the high schoolers himself (he's been accused of that several times on field trips!)I'm certainly never accused of that! :) Thankfully, I've never been called his mother like my mom was with dad...something about us and younger looking men... :)

It has been busy, busy, busy here. Last night was our Award's Night. The high school did a skit this year that I had told Wesley about...The Doctor's Office...noone here had heard of it. Anyways, it's really funny, but I was a little nervous that our kids wouldn't pull it off...if you'd seen practice you would totally understand. But, they did a really good job and the entire audience was howling. Bro. Thompson and Marvin were wiping their eyes with hankies! One of the mom's came up afterwards and told me that Ethan, one of my Kindergartners was sitting by Bro. Thompson. She said he was already laughing super hard, but then Ethan looked at him and said really loud, "This is sooooo funny!" I guess he just about lost it then!

Our picnic was cancelled today because of the rain. So, I really need to go grocery shopping and clean house! If you've ever moved, you'll understand that cleaning house is pretty much a joke when there are things piled everywhere that don't belong! I couldn't resist posting this picture of Nancy and Wesley getting boxes. We don't usually go dumpster diving...
