SNOW! SNOW! SNOW!

It's snowing here!!
I'm so excited!
We live in the south, so it's a little unexpected to have this much  snow.
The last time I can remember snow sticking was the first year we moved here, and that was in 1999.

Would you all please pray for safety for my dad and Cason?
They are on the road going to Spartanburg for Cason's SIXTH South Carolina state swim meet!
I'm so proud of that boy!

I just got off the phone with my dad a few minutes ago and he said it looked like a blizzard, and it's white everywhere.

I'll post some pictures tomorrow.

Hope everyone is having a blessed week.

Are You Smarter Than a Scientist?

We were all sitting at at the dinner table last night, and dad was reading the bible to us.
We were talking about rebellion which  brought up the topic of  evolution.
Cason, the family evangelist, was telling us what he tells his friends when they talk about evolution.
Cason says to them,
"When I think of evolution I picture someone scattering a box of legos, and then putting some CO2 on them and blowng the legos all up. Then once they're blown up and all in the air, they fall back down and they make a perfect little house."
Then after he says that he says
 "Order can't be made form destruction."
I thought that was a neat way he put it.
Cason said that once he says that they stop arguing about evolution. hehee
I guess in a way they see how he's right.

We were all talking about this and Kamryn looked like she was deep in thought, and she said,
"You know what! I'm smarter than a Scientist!"
My dad asked her why, and she said
"Because scientists believe in aliens."
My dad said "You're right Kamryn."
Then Cole chimed in and said,
"Well, I'm smarter than a scientist too!"
Dad asked him why and he said, in a his very fast voice,
"Because they think that there was a speck, and then that speck turned into a tad pole, and then that tad pole turned into a frong, ok I know tadpoles do that, but then they think that frogs grow wings and then they can fly. Then the scientists believe that they turn into apes, and then they turn into cave men, and then they're people with long beards."
He knew this was funny, and so did the rest of the family.

• Baby Curls & Block Parties •

 I had some oh so adorable pictures of Jessie up yesterday, but this morning, I took them off because my mom thought she looked nasty... she did.. but she was such a cute looking nasty  baby! My mom said I should just put some pictures of her all dressed  and pretty.
She had jelly all over her face, and she was only in a diaper.
These pics were taken a few Sunday ago, and she was wearing the same dress but one looks purple and one looks blue... or is that just me? 






I love this one because it really shows off her baby curls! SO SWEET!
•••
I'm getting excited because I'm just about to go get on my costume. I haven't dressed up for halloween since I was probably 12, but our family, and Emily my friend, will be going to a block party in about an hour.
I'm going to be Esmerelda from the Hunchback of Notredame, and Cason's going to be Quazimoto. You know... the hunch back. haha... It cracks me up thinking about him dressing up as Quazimoto!
Cason's so sweet!!!
Now how many bigger younger brothers would dress up for their sister? I'm really not sure, but Cason is one of them! =D
I'll post pictures of everyone's costume's later.
Hope every one is having a really great day! =)

• Race'n For The Cure! •



We did it! We ran the 5k for the cure!
 I was going to run it by myself, but at the very last minute Cason, my amazingly athletic little brother, decided to come with me because when I started thinking about being dropped off all by myself it started bothering me.
So after I signed up for the race yesterday, we went and picked Cason up from swim team, and then, with no hesitation, Cason decided to run with me. We drove all the way back with juuuust enough time to sign him up as well.
I knew he would pass me in the race, but I was totally fine with that. It was better than going alone! There were around 6,000 very pink people running and walking.
It was so much fun to see all the very spirited people doing the 5k.
So many people spray painted their hair pink. The boys were just as pink as the girls.
So, I finished the race in 32:34, and Cason finished in about 19:30. Can you believe that?!? He is fast, and I'm so proud he's my brother!!! I had so much fun spending the morning just him and me.
I didn't have a great race time, but I'm proud because I didn't stop!
 I have sports induced asthma, and it flaired up during the race today. I have trouble breathing when I'm  in a race, but I haven't had a race in a while, and it only takes me a few minutes to get over it and it's never too bad. When I start feeling like I can't get air it's always pretty close to the finish line. It usually starts when there's only a mile or so left, and I never stop running even though it is a little scary.  It seems like it's gotten worse over the year though.
I'm going to the doctor to get a diagnosis and an inhaler (Iguess) next week because I will never stop or even slow down in a race and I'm thinking about entering another race soon.
5Ks are so much fun, and Cason made it fun-er!

My Big Younger Brother



Cason, my 14 year-old brother, is at his state swim meet right now. He has been swimming VERY good! So far he has an eighth place in the 400 IM. He has a 8th place in the 200 Breast, and a 3rd place in the Back. He came soooo close to being in 2nd place but he was still excited about 3rd. That's not all the he has done but that's all I can really remember. = D  I'm so proud of him. He practices 5 days a week and swims about 4 miles a day. He works so hard!!! He is such a sweet brother too. We are all so EXTREMELY blessed to have him in our family. I don't know what I would do w/o him! He's my best friend. He will be home in about 8 hours. They are going to start coming home at about 7:00 pm. tonight and should get here at about 3:00 am. Here's a picture of him on the podium. He's the first boy on it and he has a bright orange swim cap on.  :-)





OK, and i do relies this isn't the best picture of us but it's better than others! hehehe 
But I guess that would make it the best picture... Oh well...


Hope evry one is having a Blessed day!
