Praise the Lord for His blessing and Provision!!!!!

Psalm 28:7 The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him.

I am thankful that the Lord has given me 11 families (14 lessons) that I am going to teach piano for. I am excited about a new and busy year. We will begin August 31, 2009. Just a few more days of summer left. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!!!!!!

Lindsey's First Swim!!!!

Lindsey got to go to her first pool party while her Dad was at the Men and Boys Campout. Mrs. Tucker, a lady in our church, opened her home and pool to the ladies and we had a great time. I found this floating toy at Winco Foods and it helped Lindsey a lot. She did not know what to think and I don't think she really liked it. When I got in the pool with her, she just wanted me to hold her and she hung on for dear life. It was cute and sad all at the same time. It was close to nap time, so Lindsey got out of the pool and took a nap and Mom enjoyed the rest of the time in the water. We had lunch and enjoyed the fellowship. Hopefully next year Lindsey will enjoy the water a little bit better and have fun.

First Dentist Visit!!!

Lindsey had her first visit to the Dentist this morning. We had to get up very early and she was not really impressed. Miss Kaitlyn went with us because I had to get my teeth cleaned also. Lindsey had some Fluoride painted on her teeth. Dr. Martin said that she had very nice teeth and that some of her back teeth were about to come in. Well, like the bad blogger that I am I forgot my camera. I really wanted to take a picture for the baby book. Anyway, maybe that next time. Thank you for stopping by and Have a great day!!!!!

Land of the Free Because of the Brave!!!!!

I just wanted to say Happy Birthday, America. May we ever be mindful of the freedom and liberty that we have been given by God so that we can do the things that God has given us to do. "Go Ye Into All The World..." Quote of the Day: "A government big enough to give you everything you want, is strong enough to take everything you have." -Thomas Jefferson - Our freedoms are ever being taken from us and we must be vigilant to keep America free. Let us not forget those men and women who have given "their last full measure of devotion" that we might live in a free country. God Bless The USA.

All Caught Up!!!!

OK, I think that I am all caught up with my posts. I am waiting to get pictures of the birthday party of the century from my mom. Check out the Smileboxes. You may want to pause the music at the bottom of our blog. Thank you all for stopping by and have a great day!!!

The Swing by Robert Louis Stevenson

How do you like to go up in a swing,

Up in the air so blue?

Oh, I do think it the pleasantest thing

Ever a child can do!

Up in the air and over the wall,

Till I can see so wide,

Rivers and trees and cattle and all

Over the countryside-

Till I look down on the garden green,

Down on the roof so brown-

Up in the air I go flying again,

Up in the air and down!

Rubba Dubb Dubb a Little Lindsey in the Tub!!!!

Lindsey loves bath time. We have so much fun playing with all her bath toys and the bubbles.

Long Time No Posting!!!!

I have to tell you that Facebook has stolen all my time and I feel like a blogging traitor. Things have been crazy and there has been so much going on. I just finished all my piano lessons and we had our recital on Monday, June 1st. I had 10 students this year. They all worked hard and did a great job. Lindsey is growing so much and I can't believe it but in two weeks she will be a year old. We are planning a fun party and Lindsey's Great Grandmother, Oldamor is coming to celebrate with us. Well, I need to get ready for church and I will post more later. Have a great day and thank you for stopping by.
Oh, by the way, Lindsey wanted me to tell that today is her PaPa's birthday and that he is the best Papa in the whole world. Thank you, Dad, for being great at all you do. We love you so much and words cannot express what you mean to us. Have a great day and know that you are loved. Happy Birthday!!!!!!

Go Eagle Eagles!!!!!!!!

Over the President's Day Holiday our school, Faith Baptist Academy went to the annual basketball and volleyball tournament. They did a really good job and had a great time. We enjoyed watching their games and being there to cheer them on. The girls missed the final four teams by one point and the boys played their hearts out in a overtime game only to fall to their biggest rivals, Faith-Tacoma by one point. This was a hard loss for the seniors but we could not have lost to a better team. Faith-Tacoma is a good friend to our church and we congratulate them on a great win. They better just watch out next year!!!! :)Here is Lindsey Lou with on of the Eagles players. They were very sad because they had just lost. Lindsey loved the Eagles and had a great time watching them play.
All tuckered out from a very stressful final game. The game was so close and went back and forth the whole time.
Baby Eagle #1. Mrs. Cook, a lady in our church, made Lindsey some culottes that looked just like the Volleyball teams culottes. Miss Consford, a teacher in our school and talented screen printer, made her onesie for her and Mrs. Farnsworth made Autumn and Lindsey matching bows so they could be little cheer leaders.
Here is one of the games that the boys won that helped them get to the final round. Practice hard this summer Men and Lady Eagles!! We will be ready next year to cheer you on. Well, I will post more later and try to get caught up but need to go to bed. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!!!!

Happy Valentine's Day!!!!!

Happy Valentine's Day to all my friends and family. We had a great day and actually celebrated the special day on Friday. We had pizza from Papa Murphy's in the shape of a heart and many "surprisey prizes" as Nana like to call them. I hope that you enjoy the slide show and I will post Christmas pictures as soon as I can. Have a great day!!!!!

So Much To Post So Little Time!!!!

Hey, I am still alive and would you believe that I have a minute to post. There is so much to post about but I just have one tidbit for you today. I have seen so many "Thank yous" to President Bush on other people's blog and have been trying to think of something to put on my blog. On Inauguration Day, although history was being made and that was exciting, I was a little sad to see President Bush leave office. This a man who I believe did the very best that he knew to do at the moment. Many of his decisions are the reason that our country has been safe from attack for the last 7 years. I also saw President Bush treat President-Elect Obama with a graciousness that he was not given when he took office. So because I have grown to love this President (I did not say that I always agreed with him), I post this video. I found this on a friend's Facebook page and cried both times I watched it. I hope you enjoy the letter that the Bush Twins wrote to the Obama Daughters...



So, Thank you President Bush!!!! Thank you for keeping us safe. Thank you for teaching your daughters to do such a sweet thing. Thank you to you and your family for your years of service to our country. To all my friends, thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!!!
