Girls Night Out (In)!

Last night we had a girls night out with some women from church. We went to Kristin's house and all brought so much food. There was a lot of yummy things to eat! It was so nice to spend time with all the girls without interruption from any kids. Nikki and I scrapbooked all day so we enjoyed a girls day out all day! It was fun to spend a day with adults because the kids have been home 24/7 since school let out! Here's one of the pictures that turned out from last night. I kept doing different thing to mess is up so we had to take 3 or 4 different pictures!
On a side note, please pray for my friend Ryan's family. His step-Grandpa is really struggling with pneumonia. This hasn't been easy for Kristin listening to the same words being talked about that she had to say when Ryan was alive and awaiting lungs. Kristin has more updates on her blog, The Sweeney Four.



The back row is Kristin, Lori, Tami, Jessica, and Nikki. The front row is me, Jenny, and Jennifer(yes that did get confusing a couple times!)

I found this on Kristin and Nikki's blog and thought it would be fun to do!
The top one is my answer the bottom one is Scott's answer. I didn't think he even looked at our blog but he said he had it up for music. Any Alabama song on the blog music is for him in case any of you were wondering about the country music!

Cody Starts to Read (slowly!)

For those who know, I am putting Cody in Kindergarten instead of Pre-K like they suggested. I felt that I knew my child better than the testers did. I have been working with him since March on everything from letters to numbers so he'd be ready. It seems to be paying off! Last night I decided to try some more lessons out of the book Teach Your Child To Read in 100 Easy Lessons to see if he'd actually try it this time. Last night everything seemed to click and he was sounding out words all on his own! I would say good job and he'd get this great big grin on his face and hug me tight! It was so much fun to do with him and know that I helped teach him that!

New Title



I found this graphic on a website that gives free blog graphics. It hit me when I as I was looking at it could name my blog this. It is so true for me that everything that has happened, most importantly Cody and Megan, because Scott and I met and fell in love. Who knew when I made the spur of the moment decision to attend South Christian instead of East Kentwood like my brother and sister that I would meet my husband. I thank God for that because I was able to meet Scott who is the best husband, father, and friend. Even through all we've endured together I would not trade our love for anything and I am able to experience this all because 2 people fell in love!
