Tricycle!!!
Here it is, for some reason, my other post was not adding it and kept putting in the other pic. so here it is...
Pretty in Pink!
Okay, so we are slightly behind with the times! I have attempted to drag myself away from this machine a bit more to spend time with my little ones. So far it has worked, but now I am REALLY behind in my posts. So YES, Paying it forward ladies, I am mailing your items this week.They are special as most are homemade!! Another reason it took a while...oh, the excuses.Hope you enjoy them!
Now one to the other stuff...My Baby did turn three a little while back so here are some fun birthday pictures!I will not take credit for the cake, my mother in law enjoys doing them for the kids!
Her grandparents also bought her a tricycle. She loves it!
Dad and Mom bought her the accessories that are necessary when she rides.Although, mom is ready to throw "squeaker" out the window!
Dad made Sadie a picnic table from scratch. Then we painted it. He said it took longer to paint it, then make it.But it was all fun!

I can't believe that my baby turns three today. It is amazing how the time flies. She is as sweet and yet as spoiled as they come! We love her to death and couldn't imagine life without her.

She is has her own personality which makes her SADIE IVA MACE!! Happy Birthday BABY! We love you!

We have Much Anticipated the Arrival of....
SNOW!!!!SNOW!!!SNOW!!SNOW!
We lived on the Eastern Shore for 4 years and only saw a dusting twice.My kid shave never really experienced SNOW!!SO...much to our anticipation, yesterday, almost immediately after arriving home from church it started snowing. The weather had forecast 6-10inches, this morning we are proud to say we have a foot of snow!! The kids are very excited and so was Josh, however, Josh was suppose to be in Grundy, Southwestern Virginia, tomorrow. Yesterday, when he saw the forecast he drove the truck up to the top of the driveway and left it overnight. Much to his dismay and effort...he found when trying to leave, that he was also attempting to plow the road with the front of the truck...minus the snowplow!
We were not very prepared for the snow, so we did what we could to bundle up and decided to go for a walk up the driveway. The scene of everything white, is BREATHTAKING!! Then we didn't have a sled, so we used a trash can lid, and sled down the steps of the deck. Leave it to Daddy to get creative. The KIDS LOVED IT!!! I LOVE MAKING MEMORIES!! I personally have not seen this much snow in about 20+ years. It is VERY exciting!!Here are some of our captured moments!

The Scarlet Fever Bug... and Thankful for Services Rendered!
All three of the kids got sick at the same time.So we hauled in Sadie on saturday morning to find out what was wrong and we were told she had strep. After finding that out, we hauled in the older two and they had it also...so all three kids were put on Amoxacillian(?) and it was a 10 day does. Come Monday evening, Sadie's rash had not gotten any better. At dinnertime, I excused myself to go to the bathroom, and came back to find Sadie standing in front of the table screaming, "Mommy, I can't walk, I can't walk," those who know me know I am a paranoid mom and so I called Josh who was out of town working. We decided to take her into the ER. I couldn't reach any of my wonderful church friends, since it was Monday night. I finally was able to get my Bishop on his cellphone and they came and gave Sadie a blessing. By now it was almost 8:00, Maggie and Logan were asleep and Sadie would not let me put her down. He feet were swollen and she could not bend her knees. I had failed to remember that my brother, Ryan was living closer now, and so I made a phone call and he met me at the hospital while the Bishop's wife sat with me kids and her daughter drove me to the ER. I had to hold Sadie she would not allow me to put her in her seat.

Once we arrived we didn't even have to wait, they rushed us in, in my time of mom and ER visits (8 total) I have learned that kids get rushed...or mine always have anyways. So the doctor was not certain what was wrong with Sadie he said it was viral and she didn't have a fever, however, he wouldn't listen to me when I told him I had given her Motrin 2 hours prior...I was hoping it would reduce the swelling and pain. So, he put her on Pediapred (predizone a steriod) to reduce the swelling and get her over the top. Needless to say, after a very long evening, I learned that sometimes doctors do not have the answers either.
My personal feelings, I found out three days later the Scarlet Fever is going around the community and especially at Maggie's school. Their have been several cases of it here. I have done some research and truly feel this was what Sadie had. Her temp. is normal at 97.1 so for her to have a 101.8 which is what it was, that is really about 103. Crazy I know...but today I am especially thankful for the power of the priesthood, medicines, and willingness of others to serve.
