Praize and Graze

Well tonight was Praize and Graze at church. I didn't get any pictures of the Praize part since I was downstairs getting the Praize On with the kids and I forgot to get pictures. The kids were so into worship tonight and they were singing so well! Way to go!!! I got plenty of us getting our "Graze On". If you want to know what getting your Graze On is all about just go and watch the movie Barnyard!

Graffiti Artist

So there is a Grafiti artist lurking around our house! He leaves the mark of our last name around! See if you can guess who it is and help us solve our mystery!



SECOND NIGHT

So here are some of the photso from the 2nd night of Stacy's visit! Some of them were just to scary to post. What a good time we had! Stacy thanks for coming and visiting and actually staying for more then just an hour! Thanks for being a friend that I can be "real" with and for being the friend that loves at all times!!! Because you never now "there might be a time"

There are some things in life that are just the basic MUST HAVE items!

When the Towns and Dupeire's are together it is coffee cups and Benny!


Harvest

So harvest has started for Matt and he has hit the ground running!

PLEASE pray for a safe harvest season for everyone involved! We will plan on riding with him at some point next week and we will post pictures at that time!

Take care and thanks for the prayers!

More Random Craziness

More craziness!



Random Craziness

So Stacy is going to hate me! I just want to remind her though that a true friend loves at all times!!! LOL!!! Well last night Stacy was here and we got a little crazy which is VERY normal for us! So we started taking random crazy pictures here are just a few!





Missy's Puppies

So our friend Melody's dog had her puppies yesterday. We got the phone call in the morning that she was having them and about noon we headed over to see if we could see one be born! Well we got to see the last puupy be born! It was so fun! I miss having puppies!

Special Friend

Today a special friend is coming to visit for a few days! We are so excited to have Stacy and Tegan for a few days! I tried to get caught up on my sleep last night since we don't usually sleep much but I am getting old and I know Stacy is "older" then me and we just may not be able to handle the nights like we used too! We will try though and see how much coffee we can load up on!

14th Anniversary

So yesterday was Matt and I's 14th anniversary! That just does not seem like it could even be possible! Where has the time gone??? I worked yesterday afternoon and he sent me flowers at the salon! It was very nice of him and did catch me off guard! Our anniversary falls at a really bad time since he is usually in harvest. He did not get home until late last night. We still had a good night and enjoyed the time together! Thank you Matt for a great 14 years! I look forward to the next 14 years! Love you!





I was looking for a picture of the two of us and we just don't have any. For those of you who know Matt as soon as the camera comes out he starts acting up as you can see from the picture above! He likes to have fun and either dodge the camera or make some weird facial expression or just look "special"! He is "special" and I love him!

On the Plane

Well Grandma and Sharon finally got on the plane and they will be landing in Denver at any moment! The boys are anxiously awaiting their arrival!

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday to You Happy Birthday to You! Happy Birthday Dear Matt. Happy Birthday to You!!! Today is Matt's birthday but it hasn't been a very good one. He got unloaded in Greeley this morning and he had a broken airbag so he had to spend some time in the shop getting that fixed. Then on his way back his truck started acting up and he had to make 2 stops to try and change fuel filters and still he is having issues. He will go in tomorrow and have the mechanics check it out! We are praying and trusting God that it is nothing MAJOR! So pray with us as God leads you! We are getting ready to head out and go out to supper for Matt's birthday! Maybe a little icecream will fix the hard day! LOL!!!We love you Matt!!!!!!!

Delayed

Well my mom/grandma called from the airport and they could not get on their flight! My sister works for the airlines so they fly standby so that they can fly cheaper. The flight was completly booked and there was no room. They are going to try the next flight but that would get them here in the middle of the night. We are waiting to see what happens. Waiting is hard and the disappointment has set in! The boys are anxious to get playing games and the waiting is getting the best of them............

Youth Group


Well last night was Austyn's first night of youth group! It was so weird! I got to go with Austyn because I was the girl leader there to help Chad out. At first it was just kind of normal because Austyn is always with us but then I was like wait a second. This is for Austyn and he is actually old enough to be going to youth group and it made me feel really old! It seems like yesterday that Matt and I were stepping up to youth ministry and Austyn was only 6 months old. Where has the time gone???

Austyn can you PLEASE stop growing???? The best thing about Austyn growing older though is the conversations that we have. I asked him what he thought of youth group when we left and the first thing he said was he had comments about Chad's lesson and he wanted to talk about it! How that blesses my heart! He could have commented on the games of trenchball, and how he beat me in Knock Out and the fun he had in kickball but no the best thing he liked was Chad sharing from God's Word! This blesses a mom's heart like nothing else!

Grandma and FiFi Fluff

Okay so the countdown is on for Grandma and FiFi Fluff to come and visit. The excitement is building and it will be good to spend time with family! Look for pictures after their visit. I personally hope to do alot of relaxing while they are here!



Sunday Fun

So Sunday we went to the park for some fun with our church family. We began the day with some softball fun which then turned into a great game of kickball. We wrapped it all up with a great bbq and fellowship time! We had a great time! Enjoy the pictures of the kids!




Dog Issue

Okay, so we have been praying everyday about the dogs and what we should do. We have been letting the chickens out for about half a day and so far no more dead chickens. We are not sure but we are praying and asking God to work the whole situation out as He wills. So thanks for the prayers and keep praying that if we are suppossed to keep the dogs that they will continue to leave the chickens alone and if we are suppossed to get rid of them that we can find a good home for them! Thank you!!!

Chapokli


This is Bubba's creation he named it a Chapokli. A Chapokli is a blood sucking creature. He can suck up to 10 gallons per second. He is 5 inches long and 2 inches wide. He runs at a speed of 10mph!

CheeMonkey


So in school a few weeks ago we were talking about how Adam had the job of naming all the animals and so the boys had to come up with their own creation and write some facts about their creation. Austyn created a CheeMonkey. A CheeMonkey can run 90mph. He can weigh up to 100lbs. He can grow to be 5ft long and up to 3ft tall. He can climb trees really fast and he can eat a chapokli in less than 2 seconds flat. Interesting.....

Mystery Solved




So the sweet innocent puppies that have been so much fun have now turned into chicken killers. We are SOOOOO bummed! They have hurt and or killed 5 chickens in the last week. We were justifying that it was something else but this week we caught them red handed 3 times!!! So they are going to have to find a new home! We are looking to place them in a new home ASAP! They are great dogs just not good with chickens! Also, please pray that we find a good FARM FRIENDLY dog soon. We really need a good dog around here but it is so hard when you have to let them go. The next dog or dogs needs to be the right one for us. One that loves kids, stays on our property, protects the others animals (not kill and eat them), and good natured! So yeah this is hard but we can't have dogs eating our other animals!

Mr. Nature


So Wed. night at church Bubba finds a grasshopper and he carries it around in his pocket all during church. The grasshopper just stayed there all night. Bubba gets him out of his glass jar and he just sits on his hat or stays by his pocket and hangs out with him. It is too funny! The grasshopper must feel Bubba's love. Bubba just loves animals.
