Chattanooga

Sorry I haven't been able to post in the past few days. My laptop's hard drive crashed, luckily we didn't lose anything important. Just inconvienced. I am off all this week for our fall break. One of the many advantages to my new school system. I am LOVING my time with the girls. HOWEVER, something has happened to them since the time change....they are getting up everyday at 6 AM!!!! I am sure they will get back on track next week when I go back to work. In the meantime, we are playing, baking and having a blast together. Right now they are watching, The Little Mermaid Movie--something I never let them do. We have been doing a lot of that too this week, drinking hot chocolate and watching movies at night, SUGAR, and making messes that we don't clean up. I know I will pay for it, but I consider it VACATION.
Speaking of which, last weekend we took the girls to Chattanooga to the "fish tank", the Creative Discovery Museum and Coolidge Park. I haven't been there in years, so it was neat for me to go back as an adult. It is such a neat town. SO clean and tons to see and do. The weather was absolutely beautiful. And the girls behaved perfectly, or as perfect as a 2 1/2 yr old can be. They had so much fun. The fish tank kinda wore them down. By the time we got thru both parts, they were starving and tired of looking at sea creatures. Ran became the photographer, and he took hundreds of pictures of the animals. They were great pics, but come on, if you see one fish, you have seen them all. The Museum was AWESOME! The girls had so much fun. My favorite room was the percussion room. Abigail kept trying to bang the tambourine on her hip like I was doing. Every time she attempted, she would look at me and say Och mom, that hurts! It was so fun for the girls. I know that we adults were all thinking, "Does this place ever end?" It just seemed to go on and on.
I asked Emma on Monday what her favorite part was and she said, "Alanna and Todd" Isn't that precious? They both love them so much. And Alanna and Todd are great with them. I know the feelings are mutual. Just wanted to post an update real quick and get the pics uploaded. Enjoy

I decided to start this blog after I ran across another mom's blog and was inspired by her. I want to share my faith and family with anyone willing to listen. Being a mom is the most awesome gift I have ever received. These 2 girls have opened my heart to a love I never knew existed. Thank you God! You are truly amazing and everyday I marvel at your wonderous works through the eyes of my children. May this blog bring glory and honor to your name, and someday, may it provide my girls with a glimpse into the true heart of their mom.
