Monday~teacher planning day!

 Today was teacher's planning day and BOY were we glad! We relaxed! Mason won the prize for staying in bed the longest! I "challenged" them to roll back over and go back to sleep when they woke up the first time and whoEVER slept the longest got to go to the treat box! Worked great 8:20 is really nice on a no school day (; We played and danced and they stuffed the Easter eggs that they have to take to school and church over the next few weeks! Zane found some shoes! and drum roll please... took a bottle!!! With the smart idea of Mary Walker and Connie to try Soy, I bought some and a $1 bottle and the little man sucked down 8 oz like a champ! YES! We will see tomorrow what that was all about... new deal or one time deal! We will see!
 

  I was unloading the dishwasher peeked around the corner and saw this.... yes my heart melted! Oh how I want them all to be friends and love their brothers!

  

I found this pretty funny too! Zane was trying everything he could pull out to get Mason to stop watching the movie and play with him! SO SO SO funny to watch!

and I had a cuddle bug in my chair! OH how I love it! He is SUCH a cuddle bug and I Love he sweet nature! He can throw down like no other but at the core of Walker Bryce is mushy gooey love and sweetness! Mike and I read the book '5 love languages' and this ones love language it defiantly physical touch! Mason's teeters on words of affirmation and gifts ... Zane's, I have NO idea! and Both are super filled with QUALITY TIME!  Anyone who spends enough time with these kids to truly know them, to know the core of them could be nothing more then blessed!







WONDERFUL > BEAUTIFUL > SWEET > PRICELESS DAY!

Tues March 15

Oh the thoughts of today.... This is me and I am...... many things. Today as I sat in the meetings and listened to people talk about their church and how it works and exciting ways to share the word of God I thought (I know scary). I thought about my family, my extended family, my friends, my church family and how and why we are here... My large thought with this is that we are here to show the ones we love, care about, that Jesus loves them and how to love him. I also have had the most wonderful babysitter with me and it also made me think(I know even scarier) I AM A MOTHER, A WIFE and a FRIEND! and I am blessed. Having others 7 to be exact do what I do in three days made me realize that that is my mission to LOVE these people in my life and although I really would LOVE and 'Alice' to help with the details and house work loving on these four boys in my life is what I should and want to do every day for the rest of my life and in loving them I will show them Jesus! give them comfort in a way they are comforted by him and each day realize that they are truly his and to serve him is our goal.

and we are on our way....Monday!

Saw this car on the way to DRIVE ~ the first conference that Vine of the Mountains Staff attended!
