Mandy & the girls

My dearest friend Amanda Diane McDonald Flaming came to visit us right after Spring Break.




What a hoot. Hayden and Abby had a big time with Olivia & Tatum...whether it was screaming, playing with babies or playing in the MUD.





Mandy and I enjoyed...each other...hanging out and being our crazy selves (ok, maybe the crazy title belongs to yours truly) . We would love to set up camp right next door to each other and spend the summer's in the backyard at a pool drinking Mimosa's or something like that. Until then...we'll take whatever time we can! Love you Mandy ... and we love your girls! Hurry up and come back...next time bring Micheal.












So Much Life...So Little Time!

I haven't posted in ... forever...3 weeks-ish. Wow. We've had so many activities,etc., and well...I just haven't had time or made time!
My dear friend Diann even sent me an email asking me if I was ok! I'm ok, Diann! I love you girlfriend, and I'm glad you checked in!
Here's Diann...she's on the far left...and be sure to get a eyeball of that RAT!



Easter is tomorrow, and I'm going to spend a few hours trying to catch up!

Oh oh oh...before I forget...see that "comment" box below. Click on it. That's for YOU. Tell me hi or how you're doing! It's ok to post a comment...lots of you email me, and I love that (!) but if you would rather sent a comment, sometimes it's easier...and it's attached to what you're commenting about! If you don't have a blogger account, don't worry...just click anonymous..but please sign your name. :)

Off to blog..but wait! I must share with you how God has really just shook me and basically said, "Stephanie! I know who you are. I know your name, and I know about YOU!"

Although I know this in my head, life and Satan sometimes make my heart feel a different way. But...yesterday...wow. God is amazing. I've been "lost" from my dear friend Megan since just before David and I got married. Meg is amazing. I met her when I lived in Bowie, and she quickly became one of my closest friends. She has a crazy dance, she loves to plant flowers and even draws out grids, and she loves ME. She is one of my truest ever friends. But for 5 plus years, I haven't seen or talked to her. Rip my heart out...b/c well Meg is one of those once-in-a-lifetime friends.

She's BACK! I don't know if any of you could really "get" it...but I've been trying to find/reach her for 5 years! Well...my email address changed and two nights ago I sent out a bulk email to let everyone know. I didn't pay attention to who I sent the email to, I just sent it to everyone on my list.

This is where it gets really interesting...i had an email that I thought belonged to Megan. I've searched for her on the internet and came up with this email, but didn't get a return. I didn't know I sent the address change to her b/c I didn't know the address was still in my contact list.

I got a reply from her on Friday! WOW. WOw. WOW. And here's the really really really wild part. Megan had JUST opened this particular account on the 3rd. So who KNOWS. Wow. What a way for God to tap me...remind me...and particularly this weekend. Praise God. Happy Easter.

What a ramble...and you've missed this??

Ridin' The Highway

David and I are on vacation with Mom & Dad :). We spent the night in the Wal-Mart parking lot in Fredericksburg last night, and today we headed to the Koyote Ranch outside of Medina. After a quick unload we hopped on the two-wheelers (well...Dad's is a 3-wheeler) and headed to the road.

200 miles. Wow. We road 200 miles! My legs were so numb i could hardley walk. We made the MISTAKE of trying a restuarant in Bandera before heading home (in the dark, I might add). An hour and a half later...still no food! We WALKED OUT! No joke. It was ridiculous! We drove home and ate food in the "bus".

What a fun day! I love riding! I have quite a hot, handsome driver, too! Lot's of photos of the day... playing around, etc. Not a lot you can shoot driving down the highway! More tomorrow! :)
