I am just a girl trying to matter to God, my husband, my kids, family and friends. Sometimes I hop two steps forward and crawl one step back or even have to make a twirl to get back on track. But, I hope to give more than I take and have some fun along the way. Stop by for a couple of dances and cut in when you can.
I met Gregg when I was 17 and have been madly in love with him ever since. He is selfless, works really hard, and will do anything for anyone. He really is “that” nice all the time and he makes me a better person. He loves anything outdoors and runs like Forrest any chance he gets. He makes a mean bbq, dances with the kids to Elmo, and leaves cards for us to find all over the house. He is everything I could have ever dreamed of, and I am so proud to be his wife.
Mr. Christian has bluest eyes and is full of life. He is “all boy” and jumps from one adventure to the next. He loves trains, watermelon, and his blankie. He is polite, kind, and has tons of charisma with his little grin. He is a great big brother and gives in to girls more than they deserve. He is Daddy’s little buddy and the joy of my heart.
Miss Callie is everything I ever dreamed up in a little girl. She is about everything and everybody and never sits still. She loves all things girly, babies, mommy’s cell phone, pink, and her pillow. She has a laugh that starts in her toes and will melt you with her smile. She dances through our house in princess dresses with a pen and pad in her hand. She is mama’s little helper and Daddy’s Sweet Pea.
Cate is the icing on the cake. God knew she would be the perfect compliment to our family. She loves necklaces, animals, and her loveys. She has just enough girly to hang with Callie at her tea parties, but already shows a special bond with her big brother loving his superheros. She is a typical third child getting whatever she wants with those deep dimples of hers.

Hot Summer Nights
It must be the hottest summer ever. I swear just walking to the mail box makes you melt. There is no reason to take showers any more, and the only place to get some relief is in the pool. So, we have this ritual that we make ice cream cones and ride in the wagon to see if we can find any dogs after dinner to get the kids out of the house a little bit despite the heat. I am pretty sure they eat them this messy just so we will hose them off when we get back home. I love how Callie was trying to stop it from melting with her wipe. Part of me really wishes I had kids that couldn't stand getting dirty and would never let ice cream run down their hands and into their shoes, but what is the fun in that?
At least they make really cute pictures and for sure someone's clothes are coming off in the yard.

I feel ya!!! We have started going down to the pool around 7:30 pm. This is hard for me bc it sets bedtime back a bit. But, it seems to be relief by the end of these hot days.
