Ahhh a Nice Friday Night NOT.

So... me and Jeff got the pleasure of having a date night last night unexpectantly. It was really high end too.
It started with the drive into Nashville. It took 90 minutes. Part of it was because there was a bad wreck in Pegram.... the other was because Jeff was in terrible pain and we had to keep stopping. But we finally got to our destination..... the ER at Baptist.
See Jeff seems to have injured his knee pretty bad... the short of it the er doc belives he has a madiscus tear and may need surgery.
After the er we went to Krispie Kreme because the hot light was on..... ummmmm Yummy.
Then we headed home.....

12 of 12

Okay... this is my first time doing this and I think it's cute... For those of you dropping in, I am a stay at home mom of 6. We live in rural middle Tennessee. Literally, nobody claims us... LOL. I will own up that I forgot to take the pictures while we were doing things... (sorry)

For more info on the 12 of 12, visit Chad Darnell's blog

And just an FYI... we didn't go anywhere today.

7:28am Daisy was awake and hungry.

8:00 am It was time to check in on the garden and to hope that the rabbits stayed out.

8:15am The tomatoes and Peppers could be doing better in my opinion.

After about 9am it was getting quite warm it was already 88' F here. And the humidity... ugh... we did a few indoor things and watched a little bit of Noggin. Then we said forget it... we are spending the afternoon in the pool.

1:00pm Pool Time!!! Doesn't it look inviting? I am just so happy we have kept the algae out of it last year I wasn't so fortunate.

1:00pm I did have to throw this one in too... Murphy was VERY happy that we were going outside. She is an older kitty and doesn't really like the younger generation in our home.

3:15pm Benji was a little upset about having to get out of the pool... We had a small rain shower come through and he wanted to stay out in it. With all the thunder we were hearing I thought it best to go in.

3:45pm Jeff got home from work!!

6:10pm Time to fire up the grill for dinner. We try to use the grill more than the indoor stove to keep the heat out of the house. Most times it works.

6:30pm Benji's favorite dinner Hebrew National Beef Hotdogs and French Fries. (Hey... quick and easy.)

7:30pm Watered the flower boxes.

7:45 pm Watered the front bed

7:55pm Found a surprise in my roma tomatoes.

Hope you enjoyed your visit!

Happy Mother's Day

grilling out.... somebody is hoping we drop the ribs.....

Hope all the moms had a good day!

My boys enjoying yummy grapes.

Benji is on the left with the tank... he's 2.1. Micah is in the middle, he's 3.8. Josh is on the right, he's 5.5.

Bucket of Fun

Happy Birthday Allie

Benji & Micah ! Ring around the Chair

These two guys are full of energy this morning being the only ones home with mom. Here's a brief look at what they like to get into.

Josh @ mall with Daddy

britt & bubba

Kimmie & her clarinet

She's doing pretty good as she is practicing.

Old Picture of Micah and Benji

Not really sure when this was taken... It's so cute. I know we were at the McDonald's in Kingston Springs. And I believe it was the first time Benji actually got up in the tubes and was playing so probably May of 2006. They had so much fun.

Benji chowing down

Picture from back in November (11/10/2006) He's enjoying being a big boy and eating at the table.

September 16, 2006

9.16.06 ~ On the way to the football games in Erin. Benji is sporting his denim hat while buckled safely in his carseat and Josh is next to him just waiting for the car ride to be over so he can get out and play.

8.29.2006

King of the boxes! This is just before the house was ours. We got permission to go ahead and start moving our things over and Benji was all to thrilled about it. This is in the boys room and where those boxes are is now the bunk beds and the large dresser.

7.07.06

Gale had come over to help with the house. She and I think it was Kimmie painted the cabinet doors. This picture is during a break and Micah decided to demand some attention. The blue room is Kimmie's, it's where we kept the little ones as we were working on the house.

5.07.06

One of the last pictures we have i the van before it was killed. AS we can see, Benji is happy to be in his carseat and ready to go. He does prefer it when mom is driving... dad says it is because mom is a lead foot...
