Uh-oh, I found two big boo-boos


Ben was at his Nana's house for the day and discovered that he had two boo-boos that were needing some band-aids. Nana told me all about it when I went to pick up Ben. We both were supressing laughter as he listened in to the terrible saga. I had to snap a picture before I put him in the tub! He was still a little worried that evening and told Daddy all about it. Kids never fail to make you laugh at the most unexpected moments! Gotta love 'em!

Katrina Really Packed a Wallop!

Good morning Everyone. I wish it was good for the people impacted by this awful hurricane. As I watched Good Morning America, my heart just was wrenched for the poor folks down there. I found a Christian Disiaster Relief Organization online and thought I would at least put the page on my blog. If any of you feels the need to donate to them, God Bless you! They also have a list of supplies that you could box up and mail to them. It seems like such a small thing compared to how these people have been impacted. http://www.cdresponse.org/cdrhome.html

I hope you all have a good holiday weekend. Its hard to believe that summer is really coming to a close. I do love fall though!
