Okay...I'm it!

My friend Bonnie tagged me in this fun little meme!

The rules for this book meme are as follows:
1. Pick up the nearest book (not the coolest one, the one NEAREST you).
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the next three sentences.
5. Tag five people.

So the book that is closest to me is (I'm going to look so spiritual here but its really Jared's book) Lee Strobel's The Case for Faith

Alright, let me turn to page 123...oh man I lost Jared's place...okay I'm there...
5th sentence: "Geisler was well-acquainted with this issue. 'The presuppostion of your question is wrong,' Geisler replied. "These were not small innocent children."

Wow! That kinda makes me curious if they weren't small innocent children what were they? Sounds kinda scandalous to me?!!?

Alright it might be hard for to tag 5 people because I don't know if I know 5 people that actually read this blog but let me think: Jennifer Kate, Beverly, Mom, Regina, Ashley L.

Super Tuesday & I Voted

So Kati Ann & I went and voted today.

Well, techinically, I voted but since Kati Ann went with me they gave her a sticker that said that she voted too!

The people running the polling place seemed so impressed that I brought her. They said I was teaching her at a young age. I was thinking, "no, it's just illegal to leave her at home by herself!"

Anyway, her first opportunity to vote and she did great!

Flu With the Flu Shot

So, Kati Ann got sick on Tuesday on the same day that Jared's mom came to stay with Kati Ann so we could go on staff retreat. I wasn't too worried because I was sure that it was just a little congestion and we could get over it by the time we left on Thursday. However, she wasn't getting better. She was getting worse. We were up most of the night on Wednesday night and so we took her to the dr. on Thursday. We got there and I was sure they would tell me it was nothing serious but they tested her for the flu and sure enough it was a positive result. The irony of it all is SHE GOT A FLU SHOT!!
Needless to say we aren't on staff retreat and Jared's mom is here helping play nursemaid to KA & Jared (I forgot to mention he's sick too)!

Scottie Dogs

We love to dress up for church on Sundays and this Sunday Kati Ann wore this adorable dress with Scottie Dogs on it. She looked so cute that we had to go outside and take some pictures after church.

Helping Daddy Get Ready for Student Life

Jared left for the Student Life Conference this afternoon. He brought home his walkie-talkies home to charge them and Kati Ann thought she should help him. She thought the walkie talkies were pretty cool.

Future Aggie?!?

Aunt Holly gave Kati Ann this adorable jumper for Christmas and she is adorable in it! Who knows whether she'll be a ETBU Tiger, a Texas A&M Aggie, or go her own way? It will be fun to watch how her interests develop as she grows.

We started her 529 College Fund back in July so if you have a preference maybe you should contribute in honor of your favorite school!!

It has been a while

So, it has been a while since I've blogged. The holiday season has come and gone and the New Year has begun and what a whirlwind it has been.

We've enjoyed a memorable first Christmas with our little angel! She wasn't that intersted in all the tons of Christmas presents but enjoyed all the tags that came on her new clothes and the tissue paper! The picture is of Kati Ann most intersted in the Tide to Go that Santa brought me on Christmas day.

We travelled to Texas and enjoyed meeting her third cousin, Jackson. (My cousin, Bryan's little boy). It was a joy to see Uncle Marcus & Aunt Holly as well as meeting Aunt Kate's cat, Bubba!

As I write this KA is sitting on the floor playing happily by herself. She's such a joy. So, I'm going to try to do better about keeping you up to date about our adventures with Kati Ann
