If you don't believe, then read this.

I have been reading this blog for several months now. I came across it from Bring on the Rain's blog...

She was told several months ago that her baby had a heart problem and was told he would not make it or would be still born.
Need I say more.............. read this. The power of PRAYER.

Company and Cleaning...

Yep, thats right. Gotta clean this house up before Friday.

We always do Halloween at our house. We eat, trick or treat, usually build a fire and have a lot

of fun.

I have to host Jadens school party on Friday and my Dad and Step Mom are coming

in town Friday too. So today is the cleaning day.

And boy does it need it. I have not had time to REALLY clean lately.

And anyone who knows me knows how funny I am about my house being clean.

Have a super day!!! :)

Do I look like I am having fun? Oh yes.

(I really am, because I do love it).

I know thats sick...

Code Blue

This is Matthew setting in the waiting room at the doctor today (sneaky me with my cell phone camera).

Anyway the news was pretty good. He still has a slight tear in the MCL and a slight bone fracture. The doctor said he must rest his arm from pitching for 4 weeks and then start Phy. Therapy.

This is pretty good news. He feels really good that he will be ready for Feb 12th starting practice date. He did say that he can bowl, but if it starts to hurt that he is to stop that too. So over all he is happier than he was last night and now for the CODE BLUE

If you haven't heard tonight is CODE BLUE... and for any of you NON football fans and Non Titan fans it means everyone here is to wear blue to the game and else where. See Matt has his jersey on.

Monday night football in Music City, Nasvhille, TN.

Let's go take care of the COLTS and Peyton Manning. (yuck)

Lets go 7-0! Betcha' we do !

Gotta go, it is game time and snack time.

See ya.

Random Friday News

TGIF ! Let me recap our week...... First off, I did EARLY VOTE! Get out there and vote !

Whew what a week. We have been busy. Matthew had Doctor appt Monday for his arm and went back on Tuesday for another MRI. We go back on Monday the 27th for the results. The doctor said he could do surgery but that would put him out for 9-12 months (NOT).
He looked at me when he said that and knew that I am saying NO WAY. The doctor then went
on to say that he didn't want him to miss his Senior year and any opportunity he may have. Ya think?
**********************************************************************************
We are really fired up around this town over our star in the World Series. If you didn't know his name is David Price. Anyway to make a long story short he is from here, went to Vandy, and now is 23 and in the World Series. This is so awesome. He pitched for the win of game 2 last night. Pitched 3 innings. Way to go David. We are very excited!

Matthew is now in bowling season. Doctor said he could as long as it didn't hurt his arm. He has done really well. He is 2nd in the District right now. Way too cool. He loves this, and I hate to say but I would rather see the strikes off the pitcher mound rather than down bowling lanes. Ha
But if he makes it to the individual State Tourn (which he is well on his way) I do enjoy that. It was alot of fun last year when he made it. But Matt loves it, so that makes me happy :)
This morning Jaden got ready for school and usually has about 15 minutes of down time to do whatever he wants before we pack up and head to school. Usually he goes up stairs and plays a quick game on the XBOX 360. Well this morning I noticed he wasn't upstairs, he was laying on the couch in the hearth room reading his book...... and it was not just any book. It was his Bible.
I just thought that was so cute and sweet.

Isn't that just adorable. And it amazes me that being in 2nd grade that he is such a good reader and speller.

Hope you all have a good weekend. It is cool and rainy here. Suppose to be a great weekend though. Oh yea, in case you care. Titans play MONDAY night football vs. the COLTS. I would say that MY Titans will be 7 & 0 come Monday!

We won't talk about UT playing Alabama. It will probably be a good Ole' fashion BUTT whooin.

Look who came to my house today....

Yep, Dawson. My little Buddy.

Wow , whats this a pumpkin?
Take that Jaden..............LOL.

We had fun. He ate, took a little nap and played with all his toys

and some of Jadens.

He is such a good baby!

Wow, do we ever love BASEBALL!

David Price 1st round draft pick from Vanderbilt!!

Anyone who knows us knows how much we LOVE baseball.

Last night was so much fun. We watched game 7 of the playoffs for the World Series and what a game it was. It was a close game the whole time. Then it got down to the 8th inning and bases loaded for Boston (oh crap , not good) and Me, Matthew and Jaden were all yelling at the TV for Tampa Bay to put in our hometown hero David Price. They kept talking about him, and we felt like they would. Well as always they go to a commercial and we are sitting there waiting, and waiting. Then they come back to the game and sure enough, #14 David Price from Murfreesboro, TN is on the mound. People, this is huge for him. He has just been called up from the AAA division of that team and is now fixing to pitch in a must win to get to the "BIG DANCE". Matthew came downstairs so nervous you would have thought he was standing out there( I wish). It was so fun.
Another fun note is that I work with his brother. He is a real estate agent and his office is 2 doors over from mine. It is so much fun to watch all this happen.

Here is the rest of the story................... Go Tampa Bay!







Tampa Bay Rays pitcher David Price reacts after defeating the Boston Red Sox 3-1 to win the American League baseball championship series in Game 7 in St. Petersburg, Fla., Sunday, Oct. 19. When it was over, players and coaches streamed out of the dugout and mobbed Price, eventually falling to the ground in a cluster that continued to grow when others began leaping on the pile." As a kid I think everybody pictures this night," he said. "Usually it's Game 7 of the World Series but I'll take Game 7 of the ALCS.""I wanted the ball," Price said.
"I think everybody down there in the 'pen wanted the ball tonight."

It's been a while

so I have a lot to say.
It has just been crazy around here lately. Of couse we were on vacation for a week, and then Jaden had a second week off. He goes back to school on Monday. I am kinda sad about that, but I guess it will be good to get back in a routine.

Well as many of you know, the market for houses is TERRIBLE. It is really slow here. I am getting a little bit worried, and kinda getting bored and may try to find something part time. I don't want to work full time if at all possible because being here for my kids is important to me.
Especially being here for Matt as he gets ready in about 8 months to head of into the BIG world of college. No, we have not made our mind up on that. We still get piles and piles of stuff everyday.
Matt seems to be enjoying his senior year..... oh and he is dating a cheerleader from Riverdale High. They have gone out a few times, and she has been over her too. Really cute girl and seems really sweet. They went out last night after football, and then he took her out tonight to O'Charlies.

Matt also played a baseball game this week and as he was pitching he turned to the dug out and pointed to his elbow...... oh yes, his elbow is very sore again. We have another doctor appt on Monday at 1pm. The last injury was a sprain to the MCL. I hope that is all it is again, or just a little rust on the arm since he has not thrown in a few months. I will post more on Monday about that.

I am glad tomorrow is Sunday and that the Titans play. We are really caught up right now in the baseball playoffs too. We are cheering for the Tampa Bay Devilrays. There is a young man that graduated from one of the local high schools and he also went to Vandy and he plays for them. I also work with his brother. They are one win away from going all the way....

Well, I will post more later and some pictures too.

Have a great weekend friends and family :)
