Sick kids...

After the fun filled Easter weekend, the kids are now sick... congested, runny noses= lots of fun! We are skipping all playgroups this week and staying at home. Maybe I will be able to get some house things done? Hopefully it won't last too long because Mike and I were wanting to go to Tallahassee for the weekend.

My friend Alicia sent me this list and I thought it was great:

Tips for an Exceptional, Superb & Powerful Life!

1.) Take a 10-30 minute walk every day. And while you walk, smile. It is the
ultimate antidepressant.

2.) Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day. Buy a lock if you have
to.

3.) Buy a Tivo (DVR), tape your late night shows and get more sleep.

4.) When you wake up in the morning ask yourself, 'What do I really, really,
really want today?'

5.) Live with the 3 E's -- Energy, Enthusiasm, and Empathy.

6.) Watch more movies, play more games and read more books than you did last
year.

7.) Always pray and make time to exercise.

8.) Spend mo re time with people over the age of 70 and under the age of Six.

9.) Dream more while you are awake.

10.) Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants and eat less foods that
are manufactured i n plants.

11.) Drink green tea and plenty of water. Eat blueberries, wild Alaskan
salmon, broccoli, almonds & walnuts.

12.) Try to make at least three people smile each day.

13.) Clear your clutter from your house, your car, your desk and let new and
flowing energy into your life.

14.) Don't waste your precious energy on gossip, energy vampires, issues of
the past, negative thoughts or things you cannot control. Instead, invest
your energy in the positive present moment.

15.) Realize that life is a school and you are here to learn. Problems are
simply part of the curriculum that appear and fade away like algebra class
. .....but the lessons you learn will last a lifetime.

16.) Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a
college kid with a maxed out charge card.

17.) Smile and laugh more. It wil l keep the energy vampires away.

18.) Life isn't fair, but it's still good.

19.) Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.

20.) Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.

21.) You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.

22.) Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present.

23.) Don't compare your life to others'. You have no idea what their journey
is all about.

24.) Ladies - Go on and burn those 'special' scented candles, use the 600
thread count sheets, the good china and wear our fancy lingerie now. Stop
waiting f o r a special occasion. Everyday is special.

25.) No one is in charge of your happiness except you.

26.) Frame every so-called disaster with these words: 'In five years, will
this matter?'

27.) Forgive everyone for everything.

28.) What other people think of you is none of your business.

29.) Time heals almost everything. Give time, time!

30.) However good or bad a situation is, it will change.

31.) Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends will.
Stay in touch with them.

32.) Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.

33.) Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need. God provides
remember?!

34.) The best is yet to come.

35.) No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.

36.) Do the right thing!

37.) Call your friends/family often.

38.) Each night before you go to bed complete the following statement: 'I am
thankful for __________.'

39.) Remember that you are too blessed to be stressed.

40.) Enjoy the ride. Remember that this is not Disney World and you
certainly don't want a fast pass. You only have one ride through life so
make the most of it and enjoy the ride. LIVE, LOVE, LAUGH. LIFE'S A GIFT ..
UNWRAP IT! Have a Blessed day.

Easter 2008

Hope everyone had a great Easter weekend! We were really busy this Easter holiday, and now I am so tired! here is a recap:

Thursday, our first Easter party at the park. Shane had a blast hunting for eggs, and Makenna slept during the egg hunt.
Saturday, we colored Easter eggs:

Sunday we had an Easter egg hunt with our neighbors:



Then later that afternoon we had ANOTHER Easter party and egg hunt- at a friends house! Didn't take any pictures though, we forgot the camera :|

I had to include pics of Makenna- such a girly girl!

Crafting baskets

The kids and I made their Easter baskets today. When Makenna's best friends Aubrey and Andrew spent Easter with us last year, I thought their homemade baskets were super cute, so I wanted to make our own this year. Best of all, I can throw them away later!!! We made ours out of Milk cartons, and Makenna had fun gluing the cotton balls and googly eyes and nose. I made the ears, and Shane helped by throwing the cotton balls on the floor.

The finished products

Lots o pics

One cool thing about Georgia, they have a LOT of festivals. This weekend was the Azalea festival, and the kids had a BLAST. There were pony rides, lots of bouncy play things, a train ride, music, food and a petting zoo.

Shane

Since the last blog was all about Makenna, Here's a cute video of shane t-balling too!

Makenna's First TBall Practice

Yesterday was Makenna's first Tball practice! She liked hitting the ball and running to the bases, but didn't really want to stay in her place on the field too much! She didn't want to keep the mitt on her hand, because it was brown, she said she wanted a "pink" mitt (she saw another girl with a pink one) How girly!

Joe Visits Valdosta

Joe was here this past weekend for a quick visit- It was so great seeing him! We missed him a lot- wish Sara and Eli could've made it out too but hopefully we will see them next time!
