RUB A DUB DUB...TWO PRECIOUS GIRLS IN THE TUB

Well, Tegan and Carley took their first bath together the other night...Tegan absolutely loved having Carley in the tub with her. We were a little hesitant about Tegan splashing her in the face and wanting to play with her in the tub, but she actually did really well. She helped us wash her and get her all cleaned up :). Tegan adores her baby sister and can't get enough of her. She's a great helper to us and love to watch her interact with her baby sister. Carley thinks Tegan is one funny girl, she's always smiling and laughing at her. We love both our girls so much, they are truly a blessing in our lives.

DELICIOUS!!!

A lady who worked with Terrel in Jacksonville brought this delicious cheese block to their work one day and Terrel absolutely loved it. A few weeks ago we were walking around the store and he remembered it and wanted to fix it. It's the easiest thing to fix and it's very YUMMY!!! It's a block of cream cheese(8 oz) and Italian salad dressing mix. All you do is take the cream cheese and put the dressing mix all over the block and then get Club Crackers or whatever kind of crackers that are similar to that and put the cheese on the crackers. It really is delicious. Here is what it looks like....half eaten

It's Friday

This week has been a great week!!! We started the week off like we do every week just about by having to" clean up clean up everybody everywhere...clean up clean up, everybody do their share"(Tegan sings that song while we do it). Monday night, after Terrel got home from work, we ate dinner and then had FHE(learned about Noah's Ark) and then Terrel had to see what was wrong with our 02 Maxima because Sunday morning it wouldn't crank....so he jumped it off on Monday and it started but it was working really hard to start and turn over.... but it was acting like it did a year ago when we had to replace the computer in the car---which is not something you want to have to pay for AGAIN!!! So, we decided to post the car on craig's list about 7:00 p.m. that night because we were tired of dealing with it and it's problems...and by 9:30 it was sold and out of our hands...... this was a great blessing for us b/c we did not want to have to continue paying for the car if it was going to keep causing us trouble, blah, blah, blah. But you may be wondering...so what are y'all driving since you don't have your maxima anymore???..... Last Tuesday(I think) we purchased an 07 maxima...it's sooo pretty and we got an incredible deal on it and it only had 25K miles on it. We were really excited about the deal so we went ahead and purchased that car....even though we hadn't sold our other one yet. And then the problems started happening with the other so we posted it on craig's list got out of paying for it b/c we sold it for what we owe on it which was not very much, so the guy who got the car got a really good deal on it, but we didn't want to sell him the car for too much knowing that there could be something major wrong with it, but there may not be anything major wrong, we'll never know...and the guy knew that there were some problems with it but he wanted it anyway....the Lord truly blessed us when we needed it the most. So we now have an almosst brand new maxima and the 4runner which I think we'll probably have forever b/c it's never given us any problems and it has 215,000 miles on it :):)
---I(Morgan) have been trying so hard to work out at least 3 times a week. I've been doing a really good job so far, I'm very proud of myself. I really enjoy working out I've just got to keep motivated. I am now running about 2 miles working to get up to 3 and then we'll see from that. I want to be able to run like I used to in high school...i used to run at least 3 miles a day....and I am striving to get back down to my pre-kids weight :):)
---Tuesday, I had to go to the doc(the girlie doc)---no explanation needed here
---Wednesday---CLEANED LIKE CRAZY..WAY TOO COLD TO GO OUT AND DO ANYTHING
---Thursday---went to BIRMINGHAM...had a wonderful time visiting with old friends from church. Enjoyed catching up on everyone and seeing how things were going for everyone. I love these women they are a big part of my life---especially Lisa and Ali---Lisa being my YW leader and my "boss"(i babysat for her ALL the time and LOVE LOVE LOVE HER CUTE KIDS) and Ali being an awesome friend and mom with some dang cute kids. Nancy and Joan are a big part too being they are some of my mom's really good friends---they helped her out a lot in one of her greatest times of need many years ago---I also went to the orthodontist to get my permanent retainer fixed...I haven't seen those people in about 6 years or so they all look the same it was soo good to see them though :):)
---Friday---it's cold outside today, but it's going to be a really nice weekend with highs in the 60's...can't wait to get outside and play play play with the girls. We've got a little cleaning to do, but nothing major just the norm.
