Last Weekend Megan's Soccer team took first place in the tournament. They got these really great medals for coming in first. She really loves soccer and is getting very good at it. Great job Megan.

Gardening

I decided to plant some flowers in the front yard flower bed today. It was in desperate need of some color and flowers make me smile. Anyway, I love to garden, although now that I have RA its a little bit harder to do. But even as I sit here taking advil and digging dirt out from under my fingernails, its worth it. Everytime I walk out to go somewhere in my car I will pass the beautiful flowers and smile. I know, I'm a simple person, what can I say! Now if I can only find the energy to do the pool area. . . maybe tomorrow.

Yes, I am still alive!

Okay, so I have recently discoverd that I am really not a computer person. Or for that matter, not really any tech things. I don't know how to use half the features on my cell phone, have to ask jessica to do that for me, not too good with the computer either. Anyway, am good at typing so I will just blog and forget trying to find, download, add pictures and cool stuff, cause it just frustrates me and I can never find what I am looking for. So for Mothers Day I am hoping to get a simple digital camera that takes great pictures and is easy to download to the computer so I can post pics on my blog.

So to catch up, (again), things are good. I love this time of year, the rain, the flowers, the green grass, other than mowing it. But there is one thing that I am starting not to like and that is ducks. We have a pond behind our house and there are lots of ducks who have decided that our pool is nicer than the pond. So everyday I have to chase the ducks out of the pool and clean up the droppings they leave everywhere and get all the feathers out of the skimmer baskets. If anyone knows how to keep ducks out of the pool let me know. . .PLEASE.

The kids are good. Jessica got a really bad sunburn at youth conference on Saturday and has missed the last 2 days of school. It has been a miserable 3 days for her. I've been putting aloe vera gel and vitamin c lotion on her every few hours, but it is blistering and definitely going to peel. I feel so bad for her.

David planned a trip for our anniversary. We are going to Niagra Falls in June. I have never been there and I am really looking forward to going and spending time alone with him. It doesn't seem like 23 years! Its been great at times, trying at times, hard at times, but always worth it! I love you David.

Happy Birthday Jessica

Catching up!

I know, I know....its been a long time since my last post. I told you I am not very good at this. So lots has been happening in the Whit world since my last post. School is in full swing much to my daughters dismay. We keep busy with band, soccer, gymnastics, church, and of course reading everyone's blogs. I have just recently read Twilight. I have to say that I loved it and couldn't put it down. I am now reading New Moon. Maybe this explains why its been so long since my last posting (ha, ha). Anyway, here are some pics to catch you up.

And it begins...

One of our favorite rides....the test track at epcot

M and I got pushed around in a wheelchair, fun for us...not so much for the boys

J and her Dad at Epcot

Tinkerbell flew in to visit us while we were there

Needless to say, we had an INCREDIBLE time

and found out that Mickey is actually pretty cool!

Here it is!! I promised my sister I would start a blog, so here goes. My sister recently moved to China and we decided to blog so that we could keep up with each other and our families. I have been following blogs for some time but this is my first attempt at actually blogging, please be patient with me.





We took a vacation to Disney World this summer. It was my 8 yr olds first visit and everyone else's second. So lizziegeorge, here are some pics from our trip.



Okay, the picture was supposed to go underneath the words, oh well, I will figure this out some day.
