Soccer has Ended for the 2008 Season

Clay has finished his first season coaching the soccer team. Today it was bitter cold. When the teams got to the field we were told the games were cancelled due to the snow coming down and winds. But you know kids they were eager to play. With the wind blowing and kids running around both coaches decided to just let the kids play since TODAY WAS TROPHY DAY!!! Last game they all get trophies and they were SO EXCITED. Parents and grand parents froze but we cheered the kids on. Finally the game was over and they were awarded the trophies and a season well done. CONGRATS to all you. Grandma and Grandpa love our little guys so much. They give it there all.

OMH ITS WINTER

Well winter has hit and I am not a happy camper. The drive way was not done and we were about to be finished. Why is winter here already did we not just have it. I think we are in for a LONG winter this year. I keep thinking how nice it will be to have my coffee and watch others plow and shovel while I watch. Wicked thinking I know!!!

We are almost done with the cement being poured. They have about 3 days left and than they will go back and give this look to the whole driveway. This section is complete. Ron does a great job and is such an artist. You would never know this is just a stamp because of all his detail work he is doing on each and every block. Sometimes he spends 20 minutes just on one block to give it just the right dimension and textures of a real stone.

Adorable Maria Louisa

This beautiful little child Maria Louisa and her new mother sit together admiring her new clothes that I had purchased for her. My dear sister LeeAnn helped place her with this sweet family after the family she was in decided it was to hard on them and there children to keep her.

It was a dream come true for the new family. Maria Louisa loves her new home and 2 older brothers. Her new room is beautifuly painted in her favorite color PINK. Her new mom and dad have said she is like "she has always been a part of our family." I am so grateful for this family and better yet they would like us to be able to keep in touch with her. I will cherish the times I will be able to see her. We love you Maria Louisa and will always be a part of your new family.
