Happy Mother's Day!
It's so nice to have a special day just to celebrate Moms!!! I celebrated with my Mom, by going out for a nice dinner with 4 generations of girls. Grandma Swarts, Mom, Me, Shelby, and we were joined by Russ's girls, Lauren & Lia. It was so nice! Then today, Colby and the kids and I drove up to Reedley. We visited Grandma Sylvester, and then had a BBQ lunch down on the river. It was a beautiful day! Just before we left, a storm started rolling in, and we could hear the hail cannons going off all around. The wind picked up and it started pouring!!! We got packed up just in time. : ) Thank You Lord for this wonderful day with my family, and for allowing me to be their Mom!

Today's Random Memories......
Just remembered how cute it was when Shelby was little and she used to say, "I'm gonna hold you sausage!"...instead of "hold you hostage", when she was playing cops and robbers with Dylan. :)
And last week when we drove past a big field of cotton and Colson said, "Wow Mom! That's a really big garden!" Cameron chimed in with, "We should plant marshmallows in our garden!" :)
Colson made up a character named "Odd Todd", and whenever he's helping to cook, or work in the kitchen, he puts a piece of scotch tape across his upper lip like a mustache, and wears a name tag that says Odd Todd. It all began when the kids made up a coffee shop business a year or so ago. Their imaginations are a wonder!!!! :)
Colson used to call the Corvette a "Quartervette". He's grown up a lot since we first got that car. Yesterday, when we saw pictures of it at the tow yard all burned up from the accident, he reminded me how he used to call it that, and how he can finally say it right! Such a sweetie. :)
That's all of my random memories for now.....stay tuned for more as they come to me often!

Bye, Bye, Sweet Corvette....You'll Be Missed!
Colby and I have known each other for fifteen and a half years, and neither of us have been in an accident in that time. Now, within 2 weeks of each other, we both have!
Saturday, 5/01/10, we had to say good bye to the 'vette. We loved that car. It was soooooo fun! But it was just a car, and things like that can be replaced. People can't. I praise God for keeping Colby and my brother Russ safe that night. That is all that matters!
Rest in peace, you sweet, red, corvette of ours. Thank You for your service & for the good times. You will be truely missed!
