Cars's MASTERPIECE of the state flower the Iris.  She painted this for "Time for Tennessee".  Her work was selected to be framed and hung on the school wall.  What a BUDDING little artist she has become.

NEVER EVER AGAIN!!!!

I decided to finally quit being a chicken and go in for my sinus/septum surgery. These are a pic of those fun stints you always hear about.  Coming out was indescribable. Still trying to figure out where they fit??? I'm not gonna lie---It was the most painful thing ever.  They say you forget about labor and contractions which I have but I don't think there will ever be any forgetting about the pain this surgery caused.  It's messy and there was no way I could have done it without the drugs and my Mom and Dave's support.  I'm hoping it will all be worth it in the end.  I feel like I can already breath tons better so the septum part was definitely worth it.  We'll see how I do around allergy season which is very soon....TO BE CONTINUED!!!!!

SO HAPPY TO SEE MY BOYS DOING WHAT THEY LOVE AGAIN~

Carson finally got the approval to play ball again.  It's so nice to see that smile back on his face.  There's a passion in both of these boys that I can't describe when it comes to the game of BASEBALL!  Here's hoping for a great season and an injury free boy.

RYLEIGH'S DR.SEUSS FACE---SHE CRACKS ME UP!!!! SHE SAYS ALL CHARACTERS IN THE BOOKS LOOK LIKE THIS...I BELIEVE SHE'S RIGHT!

DADDY DAUGHTER DANCE

Those of you who know Dave well know that he's not a fan of dancing unless it's in the privacy of his kitchen doing the "Running Man" or "Sprinkler" haha!!!  He's such a good daddy and good sport though.  He was big man on the dance floor.  The girls said he never quit dancing and didn't worry what one other person was thinking.  That's a big deal for him!!!!  The girls love being with their dad.  He's so good to them, always telling them how pretty and talented they are.  They all had a blast and made some great memories!

Stake Conference and meeting Elder Gary Stevenson, presiding Bishop of the Church.

The Memphis Stake had the opportunity of having Bishop Stevenson speak at our Stake Conference.  I was so excited because I knew we had a connection.  He and my Dad were great friends in High School and I couldn't wait to introduce myself.  Once I did he said "Of course, you're one of the twins!!!"  with a great big hug to follow.  We didn't get to talk long but I was so happy to be able to say hello and to have Carson get to meet him too.  I hope that's an experience he'll take with him forever.  We don't get many "big wigs" out here so it's always a treat when we do. Of course he spoke on non other than Missionary Work.....The southern fields are definitely white and READY to harvest........

I think we may have another BALLER on our hands!!!!
