Grounded


The kids are grounded from TV this week so...Friday afternoon this is what became of our living room and the kitchen table. They made a huge fort. This is normally not allowed. I was too tired to not let it happen and I figured it was pretty harmless. I had to go in and check it out. It was quite warm in the fort that is why they all got out of their clothes. Mark was not really impressed but they cleaned it up quick and we captured a few pics before the take down. I still was too tired to make dinner so we ordered in Chinese food. Just a few bites in my front veneer came off..can you say hill-billie. I was so bummed. It is amazing what wonky teeth can do to your appearance. Thankfully, on Saturday afternoon I found a dentist that would put it back on. Not to self...be more careful what I bite into or try and rip open with my front teeth.

Feeling in need of some sunshine and outdoor time. The kids start swimming lessons tomorrow afternoon with our homeschool group. Spring break is over for most kids and we are well into the swing of our third term. Need to do some home organizing and purging. It will happen when time allows in the mean time we will enjoy life and all the blessings God has given us.

Mark and I watched the video Fireproof this weekend. We thought it was great. Some say the acting was abit cheesy, true but the message was great. I would totally recommend it. Thankful we watched it in our home together because we both shed tears. Praise the Lord we will celebrate our 15 year anniversary this October. I have to honestly say married life just gets better. We know each other so well and what makes each other tick. We are also getting older and a little more mature...I think. I think we have grown up lots since becoming parents to 4 children. Life is full for us but I can't imagine anything less!

Looks like a terrific fort! Our girls used to be really into fort-building, but I'm grateful that they have since outgrown it. :)

I've heard quite a number of people say that they enjoyed 'Fireproof' but I've gotta' admit...I'm worried that it's corny.

So glad I'm not the only one that loves being married and has a terrific marriage. These days it seems we're more and more of a minority.
