Not sure there are words for this.......

The Way It Should Be
A day at the lakehouse.
No tv, phone, computer, video games.
Just lots of room to play, run, make mud balls,
play with snakes and paint faces.
This is the way life use to be and should be.

KINDNESS
I got a call from the school the other day.
Trey was awarded the Kindness Award for the 2nd grade class.
(Along with another boy)
One more cool thing- I found out the next day that not only did Trey win the Kindness Award, but so did Jace and Emma!
See? We have Blessings on White Horse Drive."
And this is one proud momma!

Where Did The Summer Go?!
It's been since June since I've posted. Way too long!
The outdoor kitchen has been finished, 4th of July party was a big hit,
another year at the county fair, and Wesley went to China on a missions trip.
With all that went on I can't believe I didn't get anything posted.
We are still waiting to get our little Isabella home from China. We have now been waiting 3 years and 4 months. How much longer can this go on?! I did really good waiting the first 2 1/2 years. Now I am getting very impatient. Angrily impatient. Seeing Wesley with all those adorable sweet orphans makes it so hard!! I will post his video soon- as soon as I figure out how to get it from there to here!
Because I have neglected to post any photos of the summer I am going to post a few now. A few might mean a few hundred!!
Enjoy!
Sunday School Promotion- Trey, Jonah and Emma
Trey ready to go to the Hill City Rodeo with Grandma, Grandpa,
Jonah and Emma
Big Brother Wesley coaching Little Brother Trey
Trent taking the 3 Amigos and Jarrett and Jenessa to the new clubhouse
The 3 Amigos go to Church Camp!
About a month ago we had a Big Kids Party. It was ALOT of fun!
Can't wait to do it again. Good times with good friends.
After we got rained out of the pool the guys found a deck of cards.
Jeremie, Olivia, Angela and Lucas
Too many Mint Juleps!
Me with my two good friends Rachelle and Mindy!
We got caught in the outdoor kitchen during the thunderstorm.
Lot's of BIG thunder and lightening!! Which meant lots of screaming!!
Yet, none of our MEN even tried to rescue us. They were too busy
playing cards!
More to come on Wesley's trip to China!
Exciting news from Trey!

Baseball Has Begun
Baseball has officially begun.
Once again we are the orange team.
I love this age of boys. They are so darn sweet.
Trey is loving baseball. Here he is in the dugout.
Here he is on 2nd base.
The next batter got a hit and Trey is headed for 3rd!
Only it was a pop fly and he got out. They threw the ball to 3rd.
Trey was running circles around the 3rd baseman trying to get to the base.
He didn't make it and was the third out for Bridges.
He's mad because his dad told him to keep running to 3rd!
I KNOW he wanted to run to his mommy and cry.......
but, stopped himself before anyone noticed what he REALLY WANTED to do.
I was there......waiting.......wanting to hug him and tell him it was all right.
But, thought about it and knew Wesley would have died a dramatic death if he ever found out.
I mean look at that face! How could you not give love to that?
It was soon forgotten and all ended well.
Other favorite pictures of tonight's game:
Jonah
This boy seriously needs a blog detailing his most hilarious life!!
Since Jennifer won't do it.....I just might have to start it here.
What a character this sweet and not so innocent boy is.
And this is Alex.
They call him Tank.
He is a team favorite.

Sunday Funday at the Pool
We had a blast after church today. We came home and ate tacos then got our suits on and played in the pool. It was hot and sunny....a perfect day!
These two had fun splashing Emma.
These two had fun snoozing.
Everyone had fun swimming.
It was a Blessed Day on White Horse Drive!

Messin' With Tim
We have a friend, Tim, that takes wildlife pictures on some of our land. He uses motion sensors on his cameras and he gets the greatest shots of deer, bobcat, fox, coyote, racoon.....whatever happens to step in front of his camera.
We got an email from him that said, "Now I'm sure of it......."
"the possums are messing with me........."
Have a good giggle!!
