Randomness

...Let's see how random I can make this post:

1. Wedding: My sister Becca got married two weekends ago!!! Isn't she a beautiful bride?!? (I don't know why this picture is so small...I couldn't get it to download any larger.) It was a great, fun, crazy and exhausting weekend. Fred officiated the ceremony, (he did a great job!) I was in the wedding party, Joshua was ring bearer, and AB was a flower girl (with Madelynn). Joshua and Maddie Grace also recited I Corinthians 13:4-8 during the ceremony. They did a really good job and it was pretty much adorable- I hope to get a clip of it from my uncle to post on here. Congratulations, Aaron and Becca!!! We love you and had so much fun celebrating with y'all!

This picture was probably taken around 10 pm (11 our time!) Belly was pretty much exhausted at this point!:)

As you can see, Joshua was having too much fun gettin' down to feel tired!

2. Mother's Day: was absolutely wonderful. (Except for the fact that the kids and I had to stay home from church because Joshua was just getting over a stomach bug and I didn't want to risk getting the rest of the church sick.) After Fred got home we ate a quick lunch, went on a worm hunt, and headed out to a little pond that is next to some friends' house. Both J and AB caught a couple of brim each and had a blast! Then we stopped by sonic for the free mother's day slush (that Caleb dropped on the floor of the van...oh well) We ended up our great day eating Firehouse Subs (kids eat free on Sundays- so Fred and I split a combo and we get 2 kid's meals for free!) I am so thankful to be a mom. It really is the best job in the world. Thank You, God for allowing me to be the momma of Joshua, Anna Bell, and Caleb. They are a treasure. I am humbled by the fact that You've blessed us with these little babies. ...And thank You, God for my great mom. I am so thankful for a mom that loves You most of all and loves my children. Her wisdom is a continuous blessing as I learn to be a mommy myself. And thank You for a husband who constantly loves and encourages me. Oh, I am so blessed! Thank You, sweet Jesus!

3. Trip home: Check out what we drove through on our way back from St. Louis!!!! The news did not do justice to the crazy flooding all over Nashville! We only saw the devastation right off of I24, but that alone was wild!

4. More pics of the wedding weekend: This is the only picture that I took of the actual day. (I was a little busy!:)) Becca and Aaron had a great photographer, so I'm excited to see all of the pictures of their day. ...I'm really bummed because I don't think that anyone ever got a shot of the Broome family:(

I got to see my good friend, Shelly-- no surprise to those of you who know her, but she was a huge help with the wedding! Love you, Shell!

My lovely, wonderful, sweet sisters. I love them so much and miss them every day.

5. Sewing: I haven't done much sewing lately. But I did add these cute little flowers to AB's sandals to dress them up and match with her dress for the wedding. I just hot glued them on, so they were easy to pull off afterwards.

I made this little dress for my newest niece, Zemma. We can't wait for her to come home!!!!!

6. Strawberry patch: Yeah- I LOVE strawberry season! We've already gone twice this spring and will hopefully go at least one more time.

7. New Couch: I cannot even tell you how many times my sweet husband has couch-shopped with me! I finally found one that I really liked at a great price, so we have a new couch! I love it...now I just need to find the perfect and cheap chair to go with it:)

Wow-wee. I love random posts.
