I am a big help.

Tanner tries so hard to help us these days! He loves to load and unload the dishwasher. He will even pretend that he is puting soap in to the saop holder. It is adorable. He loves to vaccume with Mommy. He uses back scratchers to scrub the toilet- Discusting!! He brings me the pillows when I make the bed. He is just my little copy cat. His favorite thing is to be outside with Daddy and Grandpa. He loves to farm and help any way they wil let him. This is Tanner's first lesson in how to sharpen the lawn mower blade.

Kenny is 27

We celebrated Kenny's 27th birthday this weekend. I surprised him with a boot-scoot'in boogy western birthday party. We had steak and shrimp, and a boot shaped cake. I gave Kenny a new cowboy hat. He drives a lot of tractors without a cab and tends to burn his neck and ears pretty badly. He is excited about the new hat! He wore it at the table because he said it would be the one time that he could get away with it. He was right. Anyway, it was good times.

Cows can come at you fast!

On Wednesday night, we took a trip to town to pick up some things at the local store. We noticed some black cows out on the side of the road. Little too late, we saw one sister right in the middle of our lane. Kenny was driving and we nailed her head on! Hitting a cow is painful. We were probably going about 55, and Kenny barely had time to hit the brakes. We were all okay, though I had to go to the hospital for chest pain and to have the baby monitored. Luckily all is well. Our car on the other hand is probably totalled. All three airbags deployed, and I guess that in it self is about 4 grand to repair! We don't know anything official yet.
This sure has made Kenny and I realize that we are very blessed to have each other, and that the Lord was watching out for us. The cow did go up the hood and on top of the car before she fell off and took out the passenger side mirror, but at least she didn't come in the car!! Tanner came out better than anyone. He doesn't have a single scratch or bruise, which is more than Kenny and I can say. Our new favorite game is "Let's see who's bruises have the most color today!" We are lucky to be able to walk away and laugh about it. The poor cow wasn't so lucky!



Here Kenny is admiring the hoof scratches on the roof of the car!

The stork is on the way

For those who do not know yet, we are expecting our second little boy in July. We are excited, but we don't know what to name him. I guess we still have three months to go. I am feeling fine, and Kenny is enjoying his job.
Tanner is almost seventeen months. His favorite place is outside, and he loves to throw rocks (Especially off bridges or at dogs!).

Welcome to us

I am trying this for the first time and I hope this works. I will try to keep posted, and will write more when I figure out what i am doing
