No consistency

Well, once again I have taken forever to update this. Sorry! I like what Megan wrote on her blog about how hard it is to do anything productive when you have those beautiful blue eyes of your baby staring at you! I second that...

So, here are the random things we have been up to lately. This is probably not the half of what we've been doing, honestly, but sometimes we remember diapers, change of clothes, bottle, bottle warmer, wallet, ID, keys, blankets, oh yeah, the dogs, and somehow forget the camera...oops!

This flower fascinated her and she made all sorts of faces at it. I think this one is super cute, but I might be a teensy bit biased... nah....
These are the young adults from Joel's collegiate class. They went out on our boat to this spot called "dino head" where you can jump off the rocks into the lake. It's SO beautiful here!
Last Wednesday night we went to hear our favorite preacher (besides Joel of course!) speak in Russellville. His name is Patrick Mead and he is amazing. If you ever have religious questions or want to learn more about anything, go to http://patrickmead.net/tentpegs. It'll rock your world. Especially the older posts. All in all, we had 17 people from our church make the 2 hour each way trip and we had a ton of fun. Here's Joel and his co-pilot Mark.
And me and the gang in the back. Poor Mia got left out of the photo, she's in the car seat by me.
A little while back we went to Silver Dollar City with some of our best friends, Lee and Andrea. It's a theme park based on the mining town of way-back-when. There are roller coasters, water rides, tons of good food, and about a million things to spend your money on :) This is Lee and Andrea acting like newlyweds in front of the little church.
Here's us...
This is Joel and Josh (the kid that's living with us for a while, he's 16 and a really good kid, we are working on keeping him until he's 18... keep that in your prayers please!) on a water ride about to get soaked...
Can you see the spray of water about to get them? Well if this doesn't soak them, once they get into the cave ahead they get truly wet.
Another weekend we took my mom and dad out on our boat to the lake. We don't get to spend a lot of quality time with my parents, so this was really fun and relaxing. We spent a long time playing in the water and just enjoying the beautiful weather. This is my mom...
I L-O-V-E this picture, because Mia is mid-sneeze, tee hee hee! Well, Joel looks great too, but he always looks good... I just thought it was hilarious that Mia decided to sneeze right when the shutter snapped her photo. Cute little thing...
This is just another silly face brought to you by little miss expressive herself, Mia Joelle. She's all about sticking her tongue out at you right now. I gotta get a cute photo of her big toothless grin and post it, those are super cute too :)

I know that I've said this on every one of your posts, but I have to say it again...your little girl is sooo beautiful. With all that hair, she looks like a little doll...I could just eat her up!! I can't wait to meet her and see all those little faces in person. It looks like she has quite the personality. Oh yea and you and your hubby look wonderful...especially you, I like the bangs. It sounds like you guys are staying really busy and are enjoying the summer. Good for you and keep it up, Mia is one lucky girl!!!
