A Few of Ty's Favorite Peeps!

The summer is slowly coming to an end for all and before it does, I just wantd to thank a few significant and FAVORITE men/boys in Ty's life.

Shawn, you have been a true blessing to our family. Tyson really looks up to you like a big brother and a great Christian role model. Darren and I are thankful that you have joyfully cared for him throughout the summer. You allowed the transition of the twins to be a lot less stressful by adding fun times into his summer. Just because the summer's over and you are beginning a new chapter in your life, please don't be a stranger. He will miss you terribly on Tuesdays and Thursdays for sure. You are going to be an incredible dad one day. You sure have gotten plenty of practice with my three children, haven't you?

Jake, although your visits were far and few between, Tyson still talks about those times with you. Your last visit with us was a lot of fun. Who doesn't have fun at Chuck E. Cheese? You taught Ty the true signs of humility by giving him your 780 tickets that you rightfully earned at Chuck E. Cheese. Thank you! It is my prayer that Ty grows up to be just like you one day. You are going to make a great husband, but in the mean time, keep up the great work of being an amazing help to your fantastic mommy.

A Night Out With Mommy and Daddy GONE BAD!

If you haven't already viewed our roller skating rink photo album, enjoy a sneak peak into the disasterous evening at the "The Skate Rink of the Roanoke Valley". Ty loves to roller skate at home, but at the rink, he was like Bambi just learning to walk.


Darren gives roller skating a test run 1st. Then, daddy and Ty give it a shot.

Personalized Pancakes

Tyson has been so wonderful with the adjustment and addition of two new siblings. I've been dealing with a lot of guilt lately because I am just spread so thin. I have 3 children and 2 hands, not to mention a hard-working husband which I want to provide a clean home and a hot meal for daily. In any event, I do my best to do special things for Ty or with Ty when I can to reassure him that just because I have two more kids, doesn't mean that I love him any less.
Last Saturday, I made pancakes in the shape of his famous nickname, "TY". He was excited to gobble is nickname right up.
