SNOW DAY # 1 WITH MY BOYS!!

YEAH FOR SNOW!!

We had so much fun last week in the snow. Monday we were outside for 4-5 hours. The boys always make "FORTS" to hide behind when they have their snowball fights. I don't usually participate in the fight, being as how I have to video and take pics :))

I turned on the fireplace and had water on the stove for hot chocolate.

I CAN'T REMEMBER WHEN I'VE HAD A BETTER DAY OFF WITH MY BOYS!!

Jacob can make the biggest and hardest snowballs I've have ever seen!!
Landon loves to play in the snow. He gets sooo wet because he stays on the ground so much!

JACOB'S FORT!! When he finished packing all the snow, it was as tall as he is!

TOLD YA, Landon has to be in the snow... LITERALLY!! He did a great job on his fort. He asked Jacob to help him, so Jacob wheelbarreled some snow over to him.

THANK YOU LORD FOR THIS DAY!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MEG!!!

Catching up with 2 Teenagers Birthday's!!

Jacob turned 18 in January and Landon is officially a TEENAGER!! My Daddy always used to tell me :: "It seems like yesterday that you were their age" I never understood that until now. They grow up sooo fast and right before your eyes. Mommies, enjoy every minute with your babies because they are a gift from God to you!

Notice the mini-santa hat on the fish. We all thought that was funny.

What a blessing for Tim and I to be able to share in the life of this amazing person.

Thank You Jesus for the wonderful gift of "Our Jacob"
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!

Landon was so excited about getting the ROCKY SAGA DVD'S. Him and his Daddy watched a "Rocky Marathon" while we were off for Christmas Break! His favorite one is the one that has Apollo Creed in it. It's Rocky # 27, I think :)))

My friend Tina made his Birthday sign . As you can see she does an awesome job. Our baby boy is 13. Where does the time go?? Thank you Lord for our Miracle on Earth named Landon!!

CATCHING UP WITH JACOB!!!

JUST A LITTLE CATCHING UP TO DO WITH JACOB'S BASKETBALL HAPPENINGS!!!

Jacob was inducted in the 1000 POINT CLUB before one of his home games. He was presented this basketball by his coach and team mates "Center Court." They did a write up in the county newspaper and read that at the game. It is a great honor and it was one of his goals when he made the Varsity team his Freshman year to be inducted. We are very proud and excited for him.

As you can see, it's a really cool ball!

GO J-MONEY!!!



Jacob won the MVP trophy at the Patriot Invitational Tournament this year and All-Tournament at the Grace Christian Invitational Tournament.
L-R: Phil, Jacob and Chase

These are new uniforms this year and I LOVE THEM!! One reason is they have his name on them, another is they're "navy blue" (my fav color)

EXPLANATION OF J-MONEY::

Jacob was given this nickname his Freshman year when his coach was interviewed and his words were::: "Muncey is Money With The Ball." Hence, the name J-Money was born. When he shoots (and hits) a 3-pointer at the games, the Student Section yells:: M-O-N-E-Y!!!




So, I present to you my baby:: J-Money


Please continue to pray for Jacob and his decisions where College is concerned!!

YES, I'M BACK!!!

OK, sooo I never thought my blog would go inactive for almost 2months. I am just the blessed mommy to 2 gifted teenage boys and the wife of the greatest husband ever!! NO APOLOGIES HERE, JUST THANKS TO GOD FOR MY BLESSED LIFE ::))) Let me first say yes to Michael who asked me: "When you do update are you one of those that will go all the way back and catch up?" Michael, I am a "Chandler Girl" and we do things up right!! :)) Love ya Mike!!

They were in the Tower of Power competition. They didn't fair very well but they all had fun. Crystal and I got to be their sponsers and be in the ballroom while they competed. It was a neat activity.

I am very fortunate to have been able to go with Landon and we had a great time.

~~~FOLLOW UP STORY~~~

I wanted to tell you guys this story that is the continuation of the "lost wallet" story. As most of you know Landon and I went with his school to Nashville for the National Beta Club competition last week. We stayed at the Opryland Hotel and you know how huge that place is. Beautiful though, especially at Christmas time. I'll post pics later. I'm behind :)

OK here goes... My friend Tracy and I were going back to our room on the 5th floor and the kids on the elevator with us needed off on the 2nd floor. Tracy and I were talking and didn't pay attention and got off on the 2nd floor (WRONG FLOOR) with them. We realized it after we walked a little bit and we decided to just walk to the other end of the hall to the elevator. While we were walking, I looked down and saw an I POD shuffle againist the wall. NO ONE ELSE WAS IN THE HALL. Tracy said " We can turn it in to Guest Services"
I said"OH NOOOO! We are gonna find this kid and return their I POD"
DOES ANYONE REMEMBER THE STORY OF DELORES?????
So, we listened to the music so that when I returned it they could verify it was theirs . How many little green I Pod shuffles could there be on that one floor right????
The night before everyone was scheduled to leave we went back to 2nd floor @ 10:15pm.
Room check time for all the kids!!! We started at one end and asked the first adult BETA sponser we could find if any student had reported a lost IPOD. She said no and we asked her what room #'s did her school stop, so that we could go to the next school. As we were talking to the next sponser half way down the hall, 3 girls ran up to Tracy and I and said" Mam, did you find and IPOD. I asked her if she lost one and what color hers was. She said " It's a green IPOD shuffle" OK!! BINGO!! She verified almost ALL the music. YEA!!!!!! I hugged her and returned her IPOD to her. She was the sweetest little thing. 7th grade. I asked her if she had told her parents she lost it, she said "NO, I was trying to figure out how to tell them"
I FELT SO BLESSED TO BE ABLE TO RETURN THE FAVOR TO SOMEONE THAT DELORES HAD GIVEN TO ME!!! GOD IS SO GOOD. THE GREAT THING IS WE DON'T HAVE TO LOOK HARD TO FIND HIM. HE'S ALL AROUND US. HE'S IN BIG AND SMALL THINGS!!

PS: I ASKED THE GIRL WHERE SHE WENT TO SCHOOL AND SHE SAID "ST JOSEPH'S"
DR FREEMAN'S DAUGHTER GOES THERE AND SHE WAS STANDING 2 DOORS AWAY FROM ME. COINCIDENCE??? I TOLD YOU BEFORE I DON'T BELIEVE IN IT!!
BUT, I DO BELIEVE IN THE ALMIGHTY POWER AND LOVE OUR HEAVENLY FATHER.

JESUS!!! IS THE REASON FOR THE SEASON!!!!!! SHARE HIM WITH THOSE YOU MEET!!
