Church Transfer!!!!

On Sunday we were acknowledge at church for our transfer back to Corinth. Of course we all had to go up on stage in front of the congregation.

My worst nightmare happened. Nathan screamed the entire time!! Here is how it went... We had just finished singing and the bulletin said that they where going to play a video testimony and so I thought to keep him quiet I would give him some smarties. BAD CHOICE!!!!!!

Nathan did not want to eat them out of my hand, he wanted me to put them on the chair next to me. Guess what, they did not play the video! Pastor Don starts calling off the people to come up on stage. I went into panic mode!!!!! I started picking up Nathan and thought I better grab the smarties off the seat otherwise he would loose it. On the walk up the stairs I showed Nathan I had them in my hand so he would calm down, but that did not work. He managed to shove all that I had in my hand into his mouth and had dropped a couple along the way. After realizing that he dropped them he screamed because he wanted them!!!!

At this moment my face was on fire and I just wanted to hide under a rock. I thought about just letting him down but I was afraid that he would run down the stairs and back to where we were sitting.

All in all it went very well and we are very happy to be back at Corinth.

Sledding

Sledding at Grandpa and Grandma's is so much fun.

As a kid I loved to go down the huge hill in the back yard but hated coming back up.

David and I took the kids to my parents to enjoy the snow. David, being an awesome dad spent the entire time outside with Keri and Nathan. I went down once, but it was too cold for me (ya ya, I know I am a wimp!!!!).

This was Nathan's first time sliding and he loved it. He would have loved to stay out longer but with it being so cold I was worried about him, so he came in earlier then everybody else. David was glad, Nathan got heavy to keep pulling up the hill on the sled.

Maybe one of these years I can get my dad to rig up some kind of pulley system to pull us up the hill!!!!!!!! Wishful thinking.

Odds & Ends

Here is some miscellanous photos of the kids!!!!!

Now it is the new year and things have been good. Nathan has been very healthy so far this winter and seems to be out growing the RSV. Keri is doing awesome, she is growing up so fast. She has gone from a little girl to a pre-teen. WOW does time fly!!!
