Field Day!

Today was Grace's last field day... It makes me sad.
She has grown so fast.
Sweet Friends
My girl


About to say goodbye to 5th grade and hello 6th and hello Jr. High.  It makes my heart hurt!
They love the fire truck at the end of the day!

Grace in the middle
Tonight Grace's game was cancelled.  WE WERE THRILLED!
We packed Grace for Space camp and today was Kacey's first day of basketball try outs.  She isn't doing it all but trying to do as much as possible and she is struggling and in pain.  Please pray for her. 
Tonight we grilled chicken watched a movie and just enjoyed being still.  IT WAS GREAT!
My house was different tonight.  I saw smiles and joy.
My devotion was about busyness and if the devil can't make you bad he will make you so busy you feel ineffective.  We are praying over time management and being able to just be still from time to time.
Thank you Lord for this awesome day!

Happy Birthday Grace!!!

We did the conga into Grace's birthday!  We sang Happy Birthday to her!
I can not believe my baby is 11!  Time goes so fast!
We went home and got some sleep then went to a wedding.  Greg's first to officiate.
Present time!
She has been wanting a Kindle and now maybe I can keep my own.  But mine is the old original black and white, she got the Kindle fire and loves it!
She was so happy!
and ready to play!  Kacey had a Dr's appointment again on her tailbone and we brought home zaxby's.  She was enjoying her day!
Grandma and Grandpa time!

Sisters
Mom and Dad with the birthday girl!
Our sweet family!
Then off for some fun!  How needs sleep right!  The Birthday girl about to Bowl!
Bowling was her entertainment of choice!
Dad!
Lane
Me
If you are wondering how to bowl with a broke tailbone well this is how.
Then off to Rosie's for Mexican and to sing Happy Birthday again!
Then to Pump it up for Grayson's party!  ~ Told you it was a full day!
We left his party a little early and headed home.  Made a walmart run to get something I forgot for Mother's day food!  The no sleep was catching up.  Home around 9:30 and I started some of the food for Mother's day.  Lane left around 10 to go home.  Kacey took her medicine to help sleep otherwise she goes to sleep moves and it wakes her up.  At 10:30 I went to get a shower and Kacey was almost asleep.  took my shower did a couple of things told Grace it was time for her and the kindle to sleep and went to bed.  I could NOT sleep, my phone was by my bed so I started looking at it and at 11 it lite up and I saw Missy Donaldson's name pop up and my heart sank.  Lane drives 40  minutes one way and it was raining when he left.  He was only a couple of miles from home his car hit some water and lost some grip on the back and he over corrected leaving the road, hitting an embankment, and turning over against a tree.  Thankfully he was in a large car or it could have been much worse.  He has some cuts bruises and sore knee but thankfully he was okay.  So it was around 1 when we all finally went back to sleep.

Relay for Life Part 3

Grace's Papa luminary


Zoey and John Scott - They are Sheila's children and they are so strong.

Some of Kacey's friends.
This picture cracks me up!





Just another day in Paradise!  Greg carried Kacey home around 11:30 so she could sleep in her own bed.  Grace and I made it till around 1 then we took down our both.

Relay For Life Part 2

My favorite part!  People set off sky lanterns in honor or memory of someone fighting or who lost there battle with Cancer.  The Narrell's set off 4.
It was a beautiful ceremony - very moving
Team McGee was the sponsor for this part of the night and sold the sky lanterns


After setting off a few these guys hit the ground to watch them!





Awesome......
