Thought I'd brave the computer issues and try to post. So far so good! The kids and I were gone all last week to a workshop that I attend every year near where my parents live. It's always a fun opportunity to get to visit with them. I commuted back and forth during the day to the workshop and came home in the evenings to be with the kids and mom and dad.

Dad took the first two days off and kept the kids at the house for me and they all three survived each other. :) He did a great job and they loved getting to be with Papa! Mom took Friday off and kept them, so that just left two days for me to find babysitters. Brittany watched them one day and Lauren and her family watched them the other. Thanks guys!!! What was REALLY weird for me was that I used to babysit Lauren, and now Lauren is babysitting MY kids. UH...does that make me OLD????
Mom and Dad took the kids and I to the Bluegrass Fair that wasn't really "bluegrass" at all. It looked like we had stepped over the border and had taken a tour of Mexico. Everyone else there was Mexican, the people running the rides, the people selling the food, the entertainers (e.g. mexican music), AND the attendees, which were Mexican. Dad said that the title "Bluegrass Fair" was a little deceiving for sure and that it SHOULD have been called "The Mexican Festival." One thing I will say, they sure let you stay on the rides for a LOT longer than any other fair workers I've ever seen.

However, they did have ONE show with the guy that you can see in the above photo with TY PETTING AN ALLIGATOR!!!!! Well, truthfully, I was trying to hurry and get the picture and missed the actual petting part. BUT you can STILL see him almost petting an alligator. hahah! Bwana Jim's Wildlife Show, which is what it was called, ended up being pretty hilarious. Macie and Ty both liked it. He had lots of animals and was VERY enteraining (funny jokes) for the adults in the crowd.
Macie at Mom and Dad's house. I can't believe my little girl is going to be ONE year old next month. She's still so tiny, even though here lately she has gotten taller and more mature in the face. I'm not ready for her to grow up yet at all!!!
One last pic of me and Ty on one of the fair rides. He had a blast!!! His favorite ride of a dragon that flew around a curvy up and down track. He LOVED it! We rode it 5 times.

We're now safely home. I have taken pictures of the bathroom and music room which I've been painting and decorating. Both rooms look SO cool! Yesterday I painted the livingroom and today our new furniture is being delivered so I need to get off from here and make sure I have everything in order for them to be able to just come in and set it up. Till later!!!

Okay this is later...Our furniture HAS been delivered and is AWESOME! It's looks great! Now I just have to finish decorating and then I'll be DONE! I will try to get pictures and post them soon. Everything is shaping up to look SO good. God has really blessed.
Per request of Ty's Aunt Vicki, I have added these two pictures of Ty's face. :) He's growing up too quickly too and is talking up a storm. It's really wild.
