I surely feel better this morning than I did 18 years ago. Actually, by this time Brock was born and I was high on life! He was born at 3:16am. Saturday started with a paintball trip to nearly Festus, MO. We loaded the gang on one of our preschool vans...worked great! I think there were 11 paintballers. Brock got home right at 6pm with Drew, Logan and Tyler all splattered with paint. They had a GREAT time!

Last night, we had an awesome time with Brock's dad's family all attending, Donnie's sister and her family, Penny and Macyn, Darla, Wayland and Tyler! Darla came over and helped me cook, and I think supper was a success. NO one complained about my cooking and NO calls that anyone got sick! Yeah ME!

It was Malaena-Sloan's first birthday party, and she loved the action. She had a really cute dress on which hinders her crawling SO she now crawls on her hands and feet when in a dress. I hope to capture a picture cause it's hilarious!

I can not belive Brock is 18 nor that Mollie attended her first day of college on Monday. I look back over the years and thank God for great children! Miss you! Bren
