Deck Building Process

Well, we've started building our deck, I'm so excited to see the completed project!

More pictures to come.  Hopefully it won't take much longer.  It's gonna be HUGE & I can't wait!
(Andy is doing a great job & he's even letting me use power tools, scary I know).


I suppose my first baby boy is growing up ....he informed me the the other day that he didn't need his blankie, puppies or his night-light to sleep at night anymore.  It makes me sad, but I guess he is almost 7 years old.  Hard to believe.

Gino is still my cuddle boy though...we snuggle every chance we get.  He says he won't when he turns 4 though and that's only a couple months away, so I hope it's not true.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL THE MOM'S OUT THERE!!!


And to my mom, I Love you & thank you for all you do for me & my family =)

No Love like a Mother's Love

There is no love, like a mother's love,
no stronger bond on earth...
like the precious bond that comes from God,
to a mother, when she gives birth.

A mother's love is forever strong,
never changing for all time...
and when her children need her most,
a mother's love will shine.

God bless these special mothers,
God bless them every one...
for all the tears and heartache,
and for the special work they've done.

When her days on earth are over,
a mother's love lives on...
through many generations,
with God's blessings on each one.

Be thankful for our mothers,
for they love with a higher love...
from the power God has given,
and the strength from up above.
