White Trash Birthday Party!

So, we went to a White Trash Birthday Party, here is the evidence. Don't worry, all of our tatoos have been safely removed!

The Randalls BBQ

Here are some pictures from the BBQ at the Randall's House. It was so good to see everyone. The winter is over, we can all come out of hibernation now. And the food was great too!

What a happy Effie!
Beau loving the slide.
Such a happy smile on his face.
Jordan was laughing it up on the swing.
Effie forgot to smile in this picture.
So, we took another picture and I was hamming it up trying to get a big smile out of her and this is what you get.
There's a smile!
And this is Addison, before she put her dinner all over my shirt.
Steph and I got ready for the next party stop.

Effie thought we were pretty scary looking! LOL
Safe and happy back in daddy's arms!

Soccer Season

So, Lex is playing soccer now. She is doing so well and is one of the stars on the team. I just love some of these pictures of her and her team.
Go Lady Tigers!!

Motivation Friday!

Let's get a little reader involvement going on here, comment me on this post to suggest next weeks topic for Motivation Friday.

In honor of the Cattle Baron's Ball Jen and I are attending tonight at Cain's Ballroom a fundraiser for the American Cancer Society, I have chosen the Motivation topic as Charity.

Charity
If I am not for myself, who will be for me? If I am not for others, what am I? And if not now, when?
-Rabbi Hillel
The life of man consists not seeing visions and in dreaming dreams, but in active charity and in willing service.
-Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
He who wished to secure the good of others, has already secured his own.
-Confucius
Where there is charity and wisdom, there is neither fear nor ignorance.
-St. Francis of Assisi
Every good act is charity. A man's ture wealth hereafter is the good that he does in this world to his fellows.
-Moliere
True charity is the desire to be useful to others without thought of recompense.
-Emanual Swedenborg
