Happy Anniversary Vikki and Rody

It's Vikki and Rody's 13th Anniversary!

Loved seeing the adorable triplet lambs and getting to hold all three together.  Kimmy said I am good with multiples....she's so funny

Fixed the kids Valentine bags and put stickers with their names on them on the bags.  Kimmy called and said they called her to come in early for her dentist appt., so she was out and heading home.  She couldn't stop here because she needed to check on the triplets.  I told her I would just come to her house before I picked the boys up from school.  Went there and took the boys Valentine's surprises and also Jared's Birthday Card.  Kimmy and I went out right away to see the triplets.  So cute and so big for triplets.  So glad their momma loves them and is taking such good care of them.  We went in the house and visited and then went back out to check on the sheep again.  Adam's sheep, Han, is sure getting heavy.  He is so cute.  So is Jacob's lamb.  I left at 2:35 to go pick up Jacob.  After I got him, we picked up Adam and then waited for Eli to come out.  When Eli came out he had glasses on, and had a cane.  (He dressed like a hundred year old man today).  He was saying Nana, Nana. and I looked around and asked if anyone had seen Eli.  It was funny because he took his glasses off right away and said look, it's me, I just dressed like an old man today.  He is was so cute and funny.  We were going to McDonald's and Kimmy was going to meet us there.  The boys got so excited when they noticed their mom was right behind us.  We made it through the light, but Kimmy got caught by it.  Then the boys were praying that we would get caught by every light.  We kept making them, until the last light.  We had to stop for it.  We got to McDonald's just ahead of Kimmy.  We all ordered and found a place to sit in the play area.  After the boys ate, they had fun playing.  They were all really hot when they were done so I asked them if they wanted McFlurries to cool them off.  Adam did, but Jacob and Eli wanted shakes.  We got them for them to eat on the way home.  I stopped to pick up no cheese tacos at Taco Bell for Bill.

2/12/17...Went to Church, taught Sunday School, had Max and Jack come spend time with us

Kimmy's Sheep had triplets....sooo cute!  8 lb., 9 lb. and 10 lb.,  nice sized lambs

Max, Jack and Mocha

Jack and Max

Jack, Max and Papa at McDonalds

Taught Sunday School today.  Had 10 kids in my class.  Sienna is funny.  When I go into the room where all the classes meet with Joan, she is always on my chair and then she either sits on my lap or shares the chair with me.  Then the kids all try to be first to hold my hand while we walk to class.  This week it was Sienna and Peyton who beat.  Gigi held on to the back of my shirt while we walked.  Such sweet kiddos.  We had fun in class and they are sure learning their memory verse quickly, even though it is a long one.  After church, we came home and ate dinner.  Then I called Melissa to see if Max and Jack wanted to come over for a while.  They did and were really excited.

They played Indiana Jones for a while and played with legos for a long time.  At 6:00 we went to McDonalds and they ate than played.  They had lots of fun with some other kids that were there.  They wanted shakes.  Jack started playing and forgot about getting a shake, but Max wanted his.  I got it for him and he ate it right away.  Jack came to the table after they were done playing and asked if he could still get a shake.  When we left, they got their free little ice cream cones (which Papa ate).  I ordered Jack's shake and also one to take home for Hailey and Evan.  Hailey and Evan were really happy when we brought them the shakes.  Bruce has the family room all primed and it looks great.  Can't wait to see it painted.  Bill and I played "Words with Friends" on our phones.  

2/11/17...Bill and I walked around Art Vans, Sam's and then went to Culver's

Me, Peyton and Papa at Culvers

Sara Jo had her baby, Mallory Emma, at 1:31 pm, 8 lbs. 5 oz. 21" long.

Got some things done around the house in the morning.  Later Bill and I walked around Menards, Home Depot, Art Van, Sam's, and Aldi's.  Called Vikki to see if she wanted to meet us at Culver's.  She and Peyton came there and we all had concrete mixers.  They sure tasted yummy.  I had a coupon which was nice.  Peyton was sure neat.  She didn't slop on herself at all.  We got home and watched a movie called Impossible.  It was about the thsunami (spelling wrong).  It was pretty good.

2/10/17...Melissa and Vikki came over and we headed to Kimmy's, Went to Pizza fundraiser

Norman posing by the fire....love that dog!

After Vikki and Melissa got here we went to Kimmy's.  We visited and then headed out to check on the sheep.  It was solid ice all the way to the barn.  Weird because we didn't have any snow or ice on the ground by us.  Kimmy showed us the best way to go so we wouldn't fall.  The newest lamb is adorable and so cuddly.  Loved holding her.  We visited and Kimmy glued some things of her Aunt Debbie's.  We had chicken noodle soup for lunch.  Another fun day.  We left so the girls could be home to pick up the kids.  Melissa and I had time to watch another Bible Study DVD "Not a Fan".  This study has really caused me to focus on Jesus more and I love my time with HIM.  I went to Kenzie's for a while.  She played "King of My Heart" on the piano for me.  Love that song.

She also played the guitar for me for a while.  Love how she plays.  Came home and Bill and I headed to Freeland to the church Kimmy and Jared got married in.  There was a pizza fundraiser to raise money for the youth to go on a mission trip.  The pizza was absolutely delicious.  The pastor is a lady and her husband made it.  We saw lots of friends there too.  Came home and watched a movie and played the words game.

2/9/17...Walked 3 miles, worked on my list for Florida, went to Faith Rider's meeting

Took this picture of Bill at four CMA meeting because I became the Webmaster and have to have a picture of all the officers on the website for our group.  Bill is president (and I am first lady ha ha)

Shane sent me this picture of Claire opening her card from us!  She's so cute!

Went to the Sportszone and walked 3 miles at high speed.  Came home and ran off copies of the Newsletter to take to the meeting tonight.  Started making my list of what to take to Florida with us.    

Went to Pizza Hut for our Faith Rider's meeting.  26 of us were there.  The Beemer family was there and sound like they will be joining CMA.  That makes us happy.  Luis gave a really good message on perseverance.  He had me and three others stand and read scriptures he had printed on index cards for us.  I took pictures of all the officers and the girl who sends out cards for our CMA page online.

2/8/17...Picked Peyton and Isaac up from school....went to McDonalds,...had kids care groups

Isaac and Peyton at McDonalds playing.  We had lots of fun!

Evan, Logan, Jacob and Jack

Bill and I went and put gas in the car and truck.  Only saved 40 cents per gallon this month.  Next month we will have $1.00 off per gallon for 35 gallons.  Kroger finally had gift cards quadrupled!

I picked Peyton and Isaac up from school.  We went to McDonalds and met Papa there.  The kids ate really good and then played with a couple of girls.  They were having lots of fun.  A lady came up to me and asked if I was a nana there with my grandkids too.  I told her yes.  She said her granddaughters were twins.  I told her mine were twins too.  She said their mom did in vitro.  I said Peyton and Isaac's mom did too.  I asked her how old hers were and she said 5 yrs.  I told her Peyton and Isaac were 5.  I told her their birthday was in Sept. and asked her when their birthday was.  She said Sept. 30 and the same year.  Then we talked about birth weight and found out all four of them were in the NICU together.  The kids sure had fun together.  She said maybe we would see each other at Mcdonald's again and the kids could play together.  After that, we came to our house and the kids played really good and had a snack.  We went to church at 6 and had class.  It was a fun but busy night.   Evan, Logan, Jacob and Jack got $5 gift certificates because they did their devotions for the month.  They were pretty happy.  

2/7/17...Went to breakfast, cleaned the house some more, Finished the book

We went to breakfast.  Only 5 of us there today.  It was rainy and foggy out.  After breakfast, Bill let me run into Kroger's so I could pick up a Tim Horton Gift card.  The gift cards are 4x gas points right now.  I picked up the ones I needed, but they were out of Tim Horton cards at the one store, so went to the other.  Came home and cleaned the bathroom.  Finished reading Christian's Hope.  It was the best book out of the three and a tear jerker.  We had ten come for care group.  Ron brought lots of yummy fruit and also some cookies for snack.  It was such a good lesson and the movie that goes with it is amazing.
