Bless it!

Hey Y'all!
Hope you're doing well today!
Anything exciting going on your way?
Robbie broke his little foot this past Monday night and is confined to a boot for at least the next two weeks.  After that, we'll go back for another x-ray and see what type of healing is taking place.
Here's a picture of Robbie and our friend Vernon last night at church.  Vernon has broken his big toe and will be having surgery next Tuesday.  Both boys will appreciate all prayers!
6 more school days left!  I think I'm gonna make it!
Y'all have a wonderful evening!

Here's our two week totals:

Ronnie has lost 27 lbs.

and

I have lost 12 lbs.

This is one of the hardest things we have EVER done, but we're doing it TOGETHER and that makes it fun!

Last night we really wanted to walk, but a huge lightening display was taking place.  Thunder was super loud as well, so we stayed inside.  Fortunately there was no monsoon but it was already after nine when the lightning decided to stop.

Hopefully we'll be able to walk after Robbie's last soccer practice of the season tonight!

Weigh-in on Thursday...

Guess what?
Big Daddy and I are on a BIG DIET!  We weighed in yesterday afternoon and I've lost 6lbs. this week and Big Daddy lost 14!  I'm so proud of US!
We'e been walking around my home church's parking lot in the evenings and I've only had a soft drink 3 times in the past week.  I'm drinking LOTS of water and feel like my eyeballs are going to float off my face some days.

Yesterday was Robbie's Adoption Day also!  It's our 5th year anniversary of legally being parents. We enjoyed the afternoon at Monkey Joe's and he wanted CiCi's pizza for supper.  It's hard to only eat 1 piece and a BIG ole salad instead of piling pizza all over the plate.

We'll be ok though....it'll be WAY worth it when we're both around to watch him graduate and then get married someday!

Y'all have a wonderful weekend!

It's a Beautiful Morning....

I took our dog Cookie out to pottie this morning.  Normally Big Daddy does that, but for some reason I did it today.
When I walked down the back porch steps and looked to my right, this is what I saw:

Wasn't it such a beautiful morning behind The Doublewide?  I think so!

Miss Cookie says Howdy!

Oh Sweet Lord...

I wish I was staying here......

and sitting here...

doing this....

while listening to this....

Instead, I'm here....

Doing this...

To prepare for these....

Our NC EOG testing dates are May 15 - May 17.

I know my kids have learned and have worked hard.
I just honestly wish the state didn't make it so hard on us!

Oh well....

Wait!  Where was I?

Oh yea.....
