HAPPY EASTER - '08

SUNDAY, MARCH 23RD WAS EASTER.

WE WENT TO LATE SERVICE WITH OUR FAMILY AND HEARD AN AWESOME SERMON AND SONG SERVICE ABOUT OUR REDEMER LIVING. SHELLY KRUPA AND OTHERS SANG THE SONG THAT SAYS "I KNOW MY REDEMER LIVES" IT WAS AWESOME, CHECK OUT RICKY'S BLOG TO HEAR IT.

THEN WE WENT OVER TO MOM & DAD'S FOR AN AWESOME LUNCH. YOU KNOW: FOOD, FOLKS & FUN.

WE TOOK SOME FAMILY PICTURES. CHECK OUT CALEB, HE HAS ON A BOW TIE LIKE HIS DAD.
THE BOYS LOOK SO SHARP. HUMAN EASTER BUNNIES.
CALEB WORE THOSE BUNNY EARS TO CHURCH AND LEFT THEM ON ALL MORNING. HE LIKES TO WEAR HATS SO I GUESS HE DIDN'T KNOW THE DIFFERENCE.

WE HID CLOSE TO 100 EGGS FOR AUBREY, LOLO & CALEB. THEY ALL HAD SOME KIND OF GOODIES IN THEM. AFTER CALEB PICKED UP ABOUT 6 AND THE GIRLS DONATED SOME EGGS TO HIS BASKET I SAT HIM DOWN IN THE SUN WHERE HE PLAYED WITH THE EGGS & FAKE GRASS. IT WAS FUN TO WATCH.
THE PRUITT - PEURIFOY KIDS.
WE ARE ALL GROWING UP. MOM AND DAD HAVE A GREAT FAMILY IF I MAY SAY SO MYSELF. I'M GLAD I'M PART OF THIS FAMILY.
RICKY HAS 3 PRECIOUS KIDS AND A WONDERFUL WIFE.
MOM AND DAD DO THEIR BEST TO SPOIL ALL 4 OF THEIR GRANDKIDS.
AND HERE IS THE BEST AUNT IN THE WORLD... AMY PRUITT. THESE KIDS ARE CRAZY ABOUT HER. WE ARE TOO.

SPRING BREAK '08

SPRING BREAK WAS GREAT!

YOU KNOW US TEACHERS WE COUNT DOWN TO OUR BREAKS AND I JUST COULDN'T WAIT UNTIL THIS BREAK.

ORIGINALLY WE WERE SUPPOSED TO GO TO GLENROSE TO SEE THE PEURIFOY'S THEN GO CAMPING, BUT STUFF CAME UP AND WE DIDN'T GO.

BUT WEDNESDAY MORNING WE PACKED UP AND WENT OUT TO ALLEY CREEK CAMP ON LAKE OF THE PINES. IT WAS A LITTLE COOL AND BREEZY BUT BEAUTIFUL!

CHRISPY, CALEB, JILLY, KATY, MOM AND I PULLED THE POP-UP BEHIND US AND DROVE OUT THERE TOGETHER. WE SET CAMP UP FOR DAD TO BE ABLE TO COME HOME TO CAMP.

CALEB LOVES HIS BACKPACK THAT WE CARRIED HIM AROUND IN. WE TOOK THE PUPPIES FOR WALKS EVERYDAY. IT WAS SMALL ENOUGH TO BE ABLE TO WALK THE WHOLE CAMP SITE. WE HOPE TO GO BACK SOON.

CALEB ALSO TRIED OUT HIS LITTLE WALKER AND DISCOVERED THAT HE COULD GO BACKWARDS.
AFTER WE SET UP THE POP UP MOM AND CALEB LAYED DOWN FOR A NAP. THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN. YOU SEE THAT WET SPOT ON HER BED? CALEB HAD A MAJOR BLOW OUT.
CHRISPY AND I MAKE A GOOD TEAM WHEN PUTTING UP THE POP-UP.
MOM MADE DINNER THE FIRST NIGHT AND SHE MADE DIRTY RICE. IT WAS AWESOME BABY!
THAT NIGHT GRANDADDY STOLE THE BOYS ATTENTION. HE WAS ACTING SO CRAZY.
CALEB IS SINGING. DO YOU LIKE HIS LITTLE MEDAL CUP? HE LIKED TO SIT IN HIS LITTLE WALKER... YOU KNOW BIG BOY STUFF.
THIS WAS THURSDAY NIGHT. I COOKED TATTER TOT ONE POT IN THE DUTCH OVEN. CHRISPY PREPARED THE COALS FOR THIS AWESOME MEAL. ONCE AGAIN WE'RE A GOOD TEAM.
CALEB DID TAKE WONDERFUL NAPS IN THE POP-UP. WHEN HE WOKE UP HE WAS ALWAYS SURPRISED TO SEE WHERE HE WAS.
GRANDADDY CAME OUT THURSDAY NIGHT READY TO SPEND A COUPLE OF DAYS ON THE LAKE. CALEB COULDN'T KEEP HIS EYES OFF OF HIM.
CALEB FOUND A NEW BUDDY. HE CLIMBED ALL OVER KATY AND SHE LOVED IT. HE LOOKS LIKE HE'S ABOUT TO TAKE HER ON A WALK.
AT NIGHT CALEB WOULD SLEEP BETWEEN US. BECAUSE HE WAS NOT IN HIS NORMAL ENVIRONMENT THIS KID WAS CRAZY!
GRANDMOMMY COOKED BREAKFAST ONE MORNING. I TRIED MAKING GRITS AND GOT A PAN OF WHITE CEMENT OR GLUE. MY GRANNY WAS THE BEST GRITS MAKER IN THE WORLD!
CHRISPY AND THE BOY EATING BREAKFAST. CEREAL AND FRUIT... YUMM YUMM!
CALEB LOVES TO EAT THOSE BABY RICE PUFFS. AND HE LOVES TO READ THE LITTLE BOOK ABOUT POOH.
CALEB LOVES TO RIDE IN HIS STROLLER. HE WOULD JUST SIT THERE WHILE I WAS WASHING DISHES OR COOKING DINNER. WE HAD HIM LAYERED WITH A BUNCH OF CLOTHES.
GRANDMOMMY WASHING OUR DISHES. GRANDADDY ENTERTAINING CALEB.
I WONDER WHAT KIND OF DEEP CONVERSATION THEY ARE HAVING.
NOW I AM MAKING A CAKE WITH PEACHES ON THE BOTTOM OF IT. CHRISPY AND I WILL MAKE IT IN THE DUTCH OVEN. IT TURNED OUT AWESOME!
AUNT AMY CAME OUT THE CAMP THE LAST NIGHT, FRIDAY NIGHT. CALEB WAS SOOOO HAPPY TO SEE HER. HE WOULDN'T LET HER OUT OF HIS SIGHT.
WE HAD FUN WITH THE HAMMOCK THAT DAD & CHRISPY PUT UP. BY THE WAY THIS IS MY SILLY FACE.
THE WEATHER WAS GREAT! DAD IS IN THE BACK COOKING A DOZEN EGGS FOR DINNER. MOM AND AMY WERE SHARING THE BOY. IT WAS SO NICE TO RELAX TOGETHER.
WE ARE EATING THE PEACH CAKE. IT WAS AWESOME! IT TOOK ABOUT AN HOUR TO COOK. SOME HOMEMADE ICE CREAM WOULD HAVE HIT THE SPOT.
QUE RICO! DAD PUT SOME CANELA AND AZUCAR ON IT.
THE COOKING BUDDIES. HE CREATES THE FIRE AND I MIX THE FOOD.
AMY BABYSITS KATY AND CALEB. HE JUST HAD THE BEST TIME LOOKING AT AND PLAYING WITH ALL HIS TOYS.
HE WOULD PULL UP ON HER AND TRY TO STAND UP BESIDES HER.
WE WENT FOR A LITTLE BOAT RIDE ON FRIDAY NIGHT. CALEB WOULD HAVE LOVED IT BUT...


PASSED OUT LESS THAN 5 MINUTES OF BEING ON THE BOAT.
I GOT OUT WITH CALEB SO DAD, AMY AND CHRISPY WENT TO CHECK THE TROUT LINES. WE JUST LET HIM SLEEP FOR A LITTLE WHILE THEN HE WOKE UP! THE 45 MIN NAP REVIVED HIM FOR 3 MORE HOURS!
AMY BABY SAT THE BOY ON HER LITTLE BED FOR A LITTLE WHILE. ALL HE WANTED TO DO WAS EAT AND STAND UP.
GOOD MORNING MARY SUNSHINE! HE'S SO SWEET IN THE MORNING. WE LAYED IN THE POP UP AND TALKED FOR A WHILE.
DAD CAUGHT A FISH AND FRIED IT FOR HIS BREAKFAST.
AFTER BREAKFAST DAD TOOK A BREAK. HE HAD GOT UP REALLY EARLY TO GO FISHING WITH AMY.
GRANDMOMMY GETTING CALEB READY FOR THE DAY.
AUNT AMY NEEDED A NAP TOO.
CHISPY LET THE BOY SIT ON THE GROUND AND HE DISCOVERED ROCKS!
DON'T EAT THEM CALEB!

WE HAD SUCH A WONDERFUL TIME! WE ATE, SLEPT, PLAYED WITH CALEB AND CHANGED DIPERS. I LOVED THE TIME WE HAD TOGETHER. IT WAS REALLY HARD TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL THE NEXT WEEK.
