V.B.S

Vacation Bible School ended Friday night and let me just say Weee-Whooooo I'm so wiped out who knew teaching 13 or so 5 year old's could be so hard. All the kids had a great time. The one thing all the kids loved the most was the music it was great. The kids said that there favorite song was YES to VBS!! Well some of the teacher thought that it would be cute to make up a dance to go with the song (yes Baptist dance too) well some how me and Brent were added into the dance. Let me just tell you kids love to see adults make a fool out of themselves..And that my friend is what we did!!!! But hey its for the kids right???? (that's what I kept telling myself) This type of behavior is very normal for Brent but not Me.. Here are a few picture from the last night.

Very typical for Sara Beth she did not want to be up there. Cant you tell by the look on her face!!!

Lane is just like his dad he loved to be up front

See I told you look at him

Nice hat Brent

I can't believe I'm showing this picture of myself


Boy oh Boy let the comments begin!!!

Poor Baby!!!



Today I took Sara Beth for her Kindergarten check up at her Dr's. Office. I can't believe that its already time for her to start school. Lane said that he wanted to go with us so I let him go BAD MISTAKE... we were on our way to Murfreesboro and the kids were in the back seat talking to each other when Lane said (just out of the blue) "sissy when you get to the Dr. they will have to give you like a million shots in your butt so you can go to kindergarten." Well that was all it took Sara Beth just started crying and saying I don't want a million shots mama!!! Thinking that she had all the shots she needed for school I told her she wouldn't be getting any shots today. Well...I was wrong everything was going good at the Dr's office then Dr. Adams said "well now its time for the bad part of the visit" (as she pointed to her arm) Sara Beth not knowing what that meant just keep looking at her book when Lane said " Here comes all those shots" Sara Beth once again started crying. We made it shots and all. Dr. Adams said that everything looked good with Sara Beth and that she thought she was ready for school. When we got ready to leave the Dr's. Sara Beth said that she couldn't even walk and that I was going to have to carry her out to the car because of her shot in her ARM!!! Tell me what's a shot in the arm got to do with her legs... her arm was working fine when we got in the car and she hit Lane!!!

Dr. Adams and Sara Beth

Sara Beth weighed in at 40.8 pounds and her height was 40.5 in.

A BIG THANK YOU TO LANE FOR ALL THE HELP WITH HIS LITTLE SISTER TODAY!!!

Look at that smile on Lanes face he knew what he was doing

Things I have learned living in Tennessee....

Possums sleep in the middle of the road with their feet in the air.

There are 5,000 types of snakes on earth and 4,998 live in Tennessee.

There are 10,000 types of spiders. All 10,000 live in Tennessee, plus
a couple no one's seen before.

If it grows, it sticks; if it crawls, it bites.

Onced and Twiced are words.

It is not a shopping cart; it is a buggy.

People actually grow and eat okra.

'Fixinto' is one word.

There is no such thing as 'lunch.' There is only dinner and then supper.

Iced tea is appropriate for all meals and you start drinking it when
you're two. We do like a little tea with our sugar!

Backwards and forwards means 'I know everything about you.'

DJeet is actually a phrase meaning 'Did you eat?'

You don't have to wear a watch because it doesn't matter what time it
is. You work until you're done or it's too dark to see.

You don't PUSH buttons, you MASH them.

You measure distance in minutes.

You'll probably have to switch from 'heat' to 'A/C' in the same day.

'Fix' is a verb. Example: 'I'm fixing to go to the store.'

All the festivals across the state are named after a fruit,
vegetable, grain, insect or animal.

You install security lights on your house and garage and leave both unlocked.

You carry jumper cables in your car . . . for your OWN car.

There are only own four spices: salt, pepper, Tabasco and ketchup.

The local papers cover national and international news on one page,
but require 6 pages for local gossip and sports.

The first day of deer season is a national holiday.

100 degrees Fahrenheit is 'a little warm.'

We have four seasons: Almost Summer, Summer, still Summer and Christmas.

Going to Wal-mart is a favorite past time known as 'goin' Wal-martin'
or off to 'Wally World.'

A cool snap (below 70 degrees) is good pinto-bean weather.

A carbonated soft drink isn't a soda, cola or pop. . . it's a Coke,
regardless of brand or flavor. Example: 'What kinda coke you want?'

Fried catfish is the other white meat.

We don't need no stinking driver's ed . . . if our mama says we can
drive, we can drive.

EVERYONE can't be a Tennessean; it takes talent. You might say it's
an art form or a gift from God!
