Hayley at the Mall









This is our good friend Hayley. We love her. She is just a few weeks older than Will.

Pics of other folks

We went to the mall with our friends Kristen and Hayley. They brought their neighbors with them. There was a beautiful azala bush outside Dillards on our way in. These pics we snapped in a few crazy minutes in the parking lot. What do you think?




Nothing like kids at Easter time. The flowers made me think of hunting eggs at Grandma Terrell's house.

Some new pics of the boys.




We were headed outside to get a few pics. But, when we got out the door it was raining. Instead of yard shots, we got a few right outside the front door shots. Doesn't matter what the background is, they are still cute kids.

Warren's favorite pose. 3 and a half.


Will 14 months.
Warren was not happy we couldn't go out in the rain.
Will - just having fun in the kitchen.
Dub says boys and flowers don't mix. He may be right.

Be impressed that they are not covered in anything but cuteness. No food... no dirt... just cute boys. Happy Easter.

# 2 ... waiting on #3

Crazy Nights! (Read post before this one to fully understand the expierence.) Ok, so we got home and finally got to sleep. At about 5:20 am the smoke alarms in the house started to go off then stopped. Dub and I jumped up and ran to the boys rooms. He grabbed Warren and I took Will. The alarm would go off for about 10 seconds then stop. It was really weird. There was no sign of fire. We realized that the alarm had been triggered in Will's room, because the light was blinking on his detector. I had a bath and body works air freshener in his room. Yes, we think that is what set off the alarm. The boys sleep with their doors shut. I think the scent got so strong that it set off the alarm. I searched the web and found a few articles that said that air fresheners can trigger alarms. Just to be safe we went ahead and flipped the breakers in their rooms. We will check it out in the daylight. Poor Warren flipped out. For those of you who may not know, the smoke detector seems to be a frightening thingto him. The light flashing over his bed is scary. In fact, every prayer including blessings, ends with "Lord Jesus and firemen don' let me be scared of my light." I am afraid after this little episode we will need to do lots of praying. So that is #2. Since things always come in 3 I told Dub we need to be very cautious. (: I realized the importance of the smoke detector tonight. Even though it wasn't a fire, I was glad that it had alerted us. We were able to get to the boys so quickly. It made me feel good to know even when we aren't aware of what is happening the smoke detector is.
Smoke detector- very good.
Awakening in the middle of a short night- not good.
Being the only one unable to get back to sleep- very not good.
Check the batteries in your detectors folks!

# 1 waiting on # 3

Crazy Days! Last night Dub, the boys and I went to Altamonte Springs to get him a new suit. We did not buy it because the sales person was making us crazy. We stopped by the mall food court to get dinner. it was 8:30 and no one had eaten yet. There was no going in anywhere and sitting down at that point. The boys needed food-fast. Chic- fil a fit the bill. After dinner we took the boys to the toy store. The mall was closing so we headed back to "Little Foot." For anyone who may not know that is WW's brand new truck. The parking lot at that mall is a bit creepy. We got near the truck and Dub went to use the re-mote starter... nothing happened. Yes, dead battery! The cop on duty would not jump us. A lady in a tiny car tried but it would not jump. We called AAA at 9:20. They gave is a 45 minute window for the truck to arrive. Will is beyond tired now and things are getting a little tense in the cab of the truck. After the 45 minute window expired Dub called back. Guess what... they had NO RECORD of our call. We had sat there with no one coming. They assured us they would get someone out. Rocky came to give little foot some juice at 11:03. The boys got really still and quite when "TOW MATER" arrived. That was a welcome change. After we were sure the truck was going to remain on we headed home. Will went to sleep as soon as we got on the interstate. Warren however was afraid he would "miss something" on the adventure home. He did not get to sleep until he was in bed around 11:40.

Dana- Little Miss Hardee County


Saturday Dana, my niece, was in the Little Miss Hardee County pagent for Fifth graders. It was such a good pagent. The girls had an opening number with a fiesta theme. They then competed in "Sports" wear. The final area was of course a dress. Dana was a boxer for her sports wear. She was a real "knock out" hahaha. The other girls had so many cute ideas. Hunters, tennis, softball, basketball, snow boarder, ice skater ect...

All the girls did a great job! I sure am proud of Dana. She is a great kid. We love you Belle Belle!

SPRINT - Don't Use them!

I swiched my phone plan in October to a sprint plan from a Nextel plan. I swiched to save is some money. EVERY month since then the bill has been WRONG! I have logged over 12 hours working to get the problem solved. The lady in the Sprint store told me this AM that they make so much money they just don't care about their customers. I am so over it. Take my advice...Don't go with SPRINT!
