Share one thing/event/ time in your life that God has taken to make and mold a part of who you are today
It's really hard to narrow it down to ONE thing. My childhood and family relationships have been a definite plus in my life. Knowing financial hardship has made me a more compassionate person and living with a husband who is chronically ill has definitely made me more patient (usually LOL).
But I guess motherhood is the biggest thing. Knowing that unconditional love and what real sacrifice is can only come through being a parent. It's the closest thing we have on earth to the way our Heavenly Father feels about us. Whenever I feel like questioning that aspect of my life, I remember how I feel about my children and I realize that's how He feels about me. It is, in the words of Chris Tomlin, "indescribable".

OCP blog challenge #2
At what point in your life did you realize that you actually had a relationship with Jesus?
Hmm...I was in my teens when the "relationship" developed but probably was much older when I actually realized that it was a "relationship". I was saved when I was 9 years old but I didn't realize then that my salvation was secure or really what it even meant. But I continued to have "conversations" with God throughout...well, I still do! LOL
After I got older and more involved in church and Bible study, I began to realize the relationship aspect of knowing Jesus and what everyone was so jazzed about! I thought it was something different but began to realize it's what I'd been doing all along! I can't possibly put into words what all He has meant to me over the years--the things He's helped me through, the person He's helped me become, the blessings He has poured out on me. What an awesome friend!

Bringing home Mia!
Monday, we had another one of those rare days when we were ALL off so we seized the opportunity for a road trip!
My girls are BIG into the American Girl dolls and stories. Of the 13 historical character dolls, we have 8. We have Kit, Samantha, Nellie, Kirsten, Felicity, Molly, Julie, and Ivy. We also have a lot of Kit's furniture and accessories and Felicity's horse, Penny. And of the 6 girls of the year, we now have 3--Jess, Nicki and now Mia!!
Mia is the Girl of the Year 2008 and she is special to us because my youngest sister is named Mia and to me, this doll really favors her! As soon as we saw that she was going to come out 1/1/08, the girls started saving their money and making plans to get her. They've also been wanting to check out the American Girl Bistro & Boutique in Atlanta so we decided to make the trip!
It was really neat! Though it's not as big and extravagant as the American Girl Place in New York, Chicago and LA (no theatre, etc.), it was still nice to see all that they had. The displays set up for each character were lavish, the book section extensive and the doll hair salon interesting. But the place was T I N Y! And crowded! We did not get to eat at the bistro because Mommy wasn't sure we'd want to eat there and so I didn't make reservations. But we spent some time looking around. I learned a few tips on fixing the doll hair without paying the $20 to actually get a doll's hair styled (Hello? I don't pay that much to get MY hair styled!) We took a few pictures and most importantly, we got Mia!
Here are some pictures to share:


Along for the trip to get the new member of our American Girl family is Nicky, one of Brooke's favorite's and Kit, Kayti's absolute favorite.

The doll hair salon...

Brooke posing in front of Samantha's disply. Samantha is Brooke's favorite historical character doll. (Nicky, her other favorite is a girl of the year! You know you have to keep this stuff straight! LOL)

Kayti posing in front of the Kit display (did I mention Kit is her FAVORITE!!!) We already knew that the Kit movie is coming out in July and we got to watch the trailer. But we also learned that they are coming out with a doll for Ruthie, Kit's friend in June. It just so happens to coincide with Kayti's birthday which is June 24 so guess what she wants!

The girls posing outside the store with Mia. Check out the pictures of Mia in the store window!
To keep the boys from dying of boredom, we agreed to go to Bass Pro Shops after we were done at the American Girl Store. But we first had to grab a bite to eat at Mommy's favorite restaurant, Joe's Crab Shack!
Now I'm after Jeff to build some shelves in the girl's room so we don't have to keep stashing all this neat American Girl stuff in the closet! I am not holding my breath though. LOL
Blessings!

SOOO much to blog and so little time!
I am working on blog challenge #2 from Online Christian Parents and I also want to share about my recent return to my old church and also about our day in Atlanta yesterday at the American Girl store and Bass Pro Shops! But I am so overwhelmed right now with housework and errands to catch up on so I'll have to put my real blogging on the backburner for now. Until then, hope you enjoy this in the lighthearted humorous way it is intended:
TEN THINGS I NOTICED ABOUT GEORGIA
1. They have just as many crazy drivers as Alabama!
2. All the crazy drivers in Georgia drive either incredibly SSSSSSLLLLLLOOOOOOWWWWW or REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY SUPER SPEEDY FAST!!!
3. They have way more road construction than Alabama! I'll never again complain about our road construction because it was just crazy. It was only by the grace of God that we didn't get stranded on I-20 once because there was NO SIGN telling you the road was actually going to RUN OUT in the right lane at a certain point. It just so happened we got in the left lane with the road split due to construction. I felt so sorry for all those who stayed in the right lane and I don't know how they got out of it.
4. You really have to pay attention to interstate signs, which may explain why so many drive so slowly. There's no indication of the direction you're supposed to go in until you almost (and sometimes do!) miss your exit point.
5. Apparently the roads are so crazy in Georgia that even expedia and mapquest can't keep up because the directions I had downloaded were off.
6. The people who name the streets in Georgia have NO imagination (must be the same people who name the Cabbage Patch kids!). Everything in Atlanta is Peachtree something. Peachtree Street, Peachtree Blvd, Peachtree Court, Peachtree Parkway, etc. and then each of THOSE has a North, East, South, West, Northeast, Northwest, Southeast and Southwest. Go north to Alpharetta and all the roads are named North Point something! Go east from Alpharetta to Lawrenceville and all the roads are some kind of bridge street or Amber something until you get to the sugar section (Sugar Mill, Sugarloaf, etc.) Sheesh! Could ya be a little more confusing there? LOL
7. Drivers in Georgia need a LOT of space to back up/park etc. regardless of the size of their car. (you'd have to be there, but me, I can park a Mack truck in a bike stand!)
8. It must be appropriate or stylish or something while in the malls to let children run wild like bucks! Maybe next time I'll try that!
9. We (bama) have nothing on their malls. They are huge and there are several of them. All good if you're a shopper, which I am NOT. I'm thankful to be back close to my Walmart!
10. Speaking of Walmart, I did not see ONE Walmart in the entire Atlanta/Metro area. Are they all hidden somewhere? I could not survive there!
Nonetheless, we had a great time! I love road trips (confusion, mess and all) Georgia is beautiful (hey, it's the south, it's gotta be!)--almost as beautiful as her neighboring state, Alabama THE beautiful!!

A "Quick" Update
Pardon the pun!
I've had a very trying last couple of days so I'll make this one as brief as I can. But I'm realizing I never got around to posting about last weekend.
Last Saturday, we had one of those very RARE free days. Not one of the five of us had a single prior committment and Jeff was off, for the first time in weeks. So we decided to take advantage of an idea I'd read about somewhere a few months ago and we had a Family Fun Day. Everyone got to pick something (within reason) that he/she wanted to do and we spent the entire day doing all those things. I wanted to go to the Trussville Antique Mall because I'd never been. Jeff wanted to go browsing in the tool store over in Homewood. Dylan wanted to go fishing somewhere. Kayti wanted to make homemade ice cream and Brooke wanted to watch family home movies. So we set off on our adventure!
I think we ALL loved the antique mall! I didn't realize how big it was and they had some of the neatest little treasures! Of course they had the big expensive furniture, estate jewelry, fine china, etc. but they also had old albums, 45's (I had to explain to the kids what those were!), old car tags, toys, books, magazines, etc. They had SO much stuff. Some of it wasn't very old at all, but collectible. One day I hope to take my mom because I think she'd really enjoy looking at some of those things and I'd like to eat at the cafe, too. It smelled really nice!
But we'd already planned to eat at Applebee's so after some refreshment, we headed to the tool store! What can I say? It was a tool store! LOL I know Jeff and Dylan enjoyed it.
Then we headed to Oak Mountain to fish for a bit but they really weren't biting. So we explored the park for awhile until it started to get dark. I think we've decided to spend our Spring Break there--renting one of the cabins and hiking, fishing, horseback riding for a few days.
We came home, made our ice cream and watched our movies! My, the kids sure have grown. You don't realize it until you start pulling out the pictures and videos. But we watched the births and a lot of when they were babies. We watched when Dylan was about to start 4k! I can hardly believe he'll be starting college in just a few years! We watched happy, giggly Kayti learning to pull up and bouncing around in her first girly nightgown and we watched Brooke and her crazy hair playing in her ball pit. We watched the trip we took several years ago to Gatlinburg with Dylan's football team and could hear Adam's mom screaming! She still sounds the same! LOL We watched our Disney trip and I'd forgotten about Brooke being afraid of the characters! We also got to see a lot of Maw Maw on the tapes, too and that was a blessing on the heels of Uncle Gene's passing. I'm so thankful for these tapes and that the kids get to look back and see that there were never a bunch of more loved, more doted on kids than my three!
Sunday, the kids and I went to worship service and then Dylan and I went and met my mom, cousin and her son on a little trip down memory lane. My mom showed the boys were some of our ancestors are buried and we also found the graves of the Tarrant's, founders of Tarrant City. I've never been one much for visiting gravesites but it sure is a shame that the city doesn't care for it's founders graves better. It's as if they were lost and I wouldn't be a bit surprised if in a few years, they are unlocatable. We then took off to the Reservoir of Robinwood/Pawnee where my mom, dad, bio dad and other relatives have so many fond memories. Of course, we were trespassing to be able to see it (ssshhh!!!) and we then went to the Rock House in Pawnee. Everyone climbed it but me. Weak knees and a fat rear end are not a good combination when rock climbing so that's one adventure I do not participate in! Then we went to Turkey Creek Nature Preserve. Nett hadn't been in a while and though we went just last year, it's a nice spot to visit, especially now that it has been fixed up. I'm sure it's a lot different from the days when our parents used to hang out there.
This week has been fairly uneventful--nothing worth rattling on about too much. You can check out our Homeschool Blog for more!

Who I am
This assignment is from my dear Sheila from OCP.
Who I am
I am a woman created by an awesome God. I am wonderfully made, according to His word and I believe that, despite being terribly overweight, mouthy and brutally honest because I am also a woman who cares deeply for others (even those who get on my last nerve!) I am always ready to give someone the benefit of the doubt. I am a fan of the underdog. I try to see the other person's side and I look for the good in everything and everyone.
I am a woman who enjoys being a woman and love exploring new ways to celebrate how wonderful women are! (like bellydancing!) I am a woman who enjoys sisterhood and the special relationships women form with one another. I am a woman who enjoys fellowship with others and fellowship with her Creator and a woman who regrets often not making enough time for either.
I am a woman who holds grudges--for LOOOONNNNGGGG periods of time. But I am (thankfully) also a woman who will ultimately forgive and when I have, it is TRULY forgiven. I am a woman who does not have many regrets. For I believe that every experience in life, good and bad, makes us who we are. And I like who I am, faults and all. I am a woman with a lot of confidence in my God-given talents, secure in the purpose of my life today and eager to discover my purpose for tomorrow.
I am a woman who struggles daily between flesh and spirit. I am a sinner and even on my most righteous days, am but a filthy rag and I KNOW this and I can't hide that I am a woman who wishes others knew that same thing about themselves! But I am also a woman saved by grace because I know the Son of the One true God--Jesus--and I am a woman who is thankful to know the REAL Jesus and not only His holiness but His heart for sinners like me. Just like the Todd Agnew song says, "I think He'd prefer Beale Street to the stained-glass crowd!" Amen!! And I sometimes can't hide that I am a woman who wishes EVERYONE knew THAT!
I am a woman who is married to a man, who, when he isn't sinking in depression and chronic illness, almost walks on water. I am a woman who struggles daily to lift him up, cover him in prayer, be attentive to his needs as much as my own and the needs of others. I am a woman who tries desparately to follow when her natural born tendacy is to lead and I am a woman who loves her husband deeply and yet sometimes fails to undertand how men, who are supposed to be the stronger sex, can have such delicate psyches!
I am a woman who discovers every day what an awesome responsibility motherhood is. The ONLY person who understands the word "sacrifice" better than a mom is God Himself. I am a woman trying (and often failing) to set a good example of godly womanhood to both her daughters and her son. I am a woman who attempts daily to balance wanting to give her children everything she can and at the same time wanting them to know what it means to earn something and therefore appreciate it all the more. I experience daily both the joy and the sorrow of being a mother--in other words, I walk daily on holy ground. I am a woman who tries to bring beauty to my children's worlds through my creativity, tenderness and compassion.
I am a woman who loves from the depths of my heart. And with that, what more can I say?

The Best of Both Worlds
Last night, I took the girls to see Hannah Montana's Best of Both Worlds Concert in 3D. Those marketing guys at Disney are geniuses! The movie is only out for a week so everyone is scrounging for tickets, or so the buzz is. I didn't have to work too hard for mine and though some complained about the price ($15 each), it's really not that much more than it costs to go to a movie anyway. But I compare it to the several hundred dollars SOME people spent on the actual concert tickets and I think WE got the better deal!!
I really enjoyed it!! I think that kid is a great little role model for little girls. That is, if you're looking to tv and things for role models anyway, which we are not. But I have no problem with my girls liking her. She's cute as a button and very talented. I guess it runs in her family because her daddy is still hot! LOL And it's obvious he loves his little girl. Every time I hear that song he wrote for her, I just want to cry! It makes me think about how soon mine will be getting ready and getting set and how I'll be wanting to scream, "Don't go!"
They showed a lot of behind-the-scenes stuff, too and I found it all really interesting. If you have a daughter that wants to go and are considering it, I promise it is well worthy your time and money.
Here are a few pictures:
