Lazy Weekend

This was a lazy weekend. Jeremiah went to the lake and Triston and I camped out at the house. We cleaned house and I studied for my test. (Triston says "You clean every Saturday, Mom") Triston and I made a tent in his room. He decided it would be his movie theater.

This is the "Premier Grand Opening". Look at my little munchkin peeking out. He is the cutest little guy. It's great to have a weekend to ourselves without schedules. This is when we turn on the music and dance around and act goofy. (Sorry no pictures of me dancing.)


Triston was tying the dog toy to the yellow hummer and making Scooby chase it around the house. He makes me laugh. Scooby wasn't impressed......

Kristy's Bridal Shower

After months of planning the day finally came for Kristy's bridal shower. Aarin and I had fun planning and throwing the shower. I spent the last two days before the shower making 120 cupcakes with Kris and Jud's initials written on each cupcake. My mom came over and helped me with the decorating. I wanted every detail to be perfect for Kristy.

We played games like "Who knows the bride and groom the best?" and made wedding dresses from toilet paper. Everyone seemed to have a great time and we had lots of compliments.

















Kristy was happy how everything turned out and said it was more than she expected. With details like handmade invites and custom cupcakes this party was a huge success. And the best part is that it is over!

Competition

KJ and Wilson

Eddie and Glenn


Jeremiah entered his first BBQ competition at the VFW in Gainesville. I woke up sick that morning so I didn't show up until late that evening. Jeremiah and Eddie named their team Big Boy Ribs. After turning in their entries at 4:00pm they had to wait till 8:00 to get the results. Meanwhile Jeremiah decided to enter the steak competition too.

Wilson and KJ were in the competition too and entered the beans and the steak competition. Jeremiah's team brought in 1st in ribs and 2nd in steak. Wilson's team won 1st in steak. Overall it was a great day for everyone. We got to spend time with our friends and made some great memories.

Jeremiah nevers smiles but he was very happy inside. Of course Triston was thrilled that his daddy won! The three musketeers!

Pregnancy and Loss

For those that read my other blog. I have decided to make it private and use it as a diary instead of a public read. We found out we were pregnant on June 11th (Triston's b-day). We were thrilled. I was told that I was 4 weeks pregnant. On July 9th I started spotting and by July 14th I had miscarried. We tried everything to save the baby but it was not in God's plan.

We have purchased a star located in the "Little Dipper" named "Baby Gaither" in memory of our angel. We thank everyone for their prayers and thoughts during that painful time. We continue to heal and still have some rough days but I believe God will bless us again in the future.
