The dedication that almost didn't happen...

We invited family and friends, we got there early, we dressed in our best and after praise and wroship, Pastor Randy started his message. Ummmm, wait a second. Then, Pastor Tim kneels beside Todd and I knew it couldn't' be good. Somehow, Jaden's dedication didn't get on the schedule. But Pastor Tim made it happen anyway and you would have never known it was last minute.

To our sweet Jaden:

Mommy and Daddy are so humbled to be your parents. You are such a blessing to us and have brought our family so much happiness. You already have such a testimony and we love sharing it. God truly blessed us when he gave us you. We love you more than we can ever tell you!

Look, there's the races!

The Rouggly's invited the Medley's to join them in the VIP box for the I-55 Races tonight, but Mommy had to stay home with Baby J. The boys had an awesome time and now every time, we pass the races on 55, we hear, "Look, there's the races!"

Baby McKinley

Camden was full of questions when we told him Aunt Mickie had a baby in her belly. The funniest was, "Will she have clothes on when she comes out?" He gave Baby McKinley a kiss that day before Aunt Mickie left and of course, Mommy snapped a picture. We can't wait to meet our new cousin, McKinley!

the Gateway Grizzlies

You got to go to a Gateway Grizzlies game with Papa, Grandma, Aunt Beth, Nick and Emmy. You got your baseball signed by lots of the players and had so much fun!

Another family fun day

Just checking things off our summer bucket list.... (Science Center and more cake hunting)

Third Grade Fun Day

I am very blessed to work with a great team of teachers. We get along well and have fun at work each day. We had a fun day hanging out at Regina's "farm" as we call it. It was a beautiful day-we had planned to swim but believe or not, it was too cold! Jaden and Kellen were happy babies and even napped in their strollers.

Day in St. Louie

Just a fun day in the 'Lou with cousins-the Arch, Gus' Pretzels and Citygarden.

"Bible School and the Blueberry"

Lincoln invited Camden to attend Vacation Bible School with him at First Baptist Church in Desoto this week. These two are such goofballs and have SO much fun together. I dropped them off the first day, but Camden insisted he wanted to ride the Blueberry to Lincoln's house every day. The Blueberry is a big blue and white bus named Madame Blueberry like in Veggie Tales. So, I gave in and let him. (Now, I did meet the bus driver while dropping the boys off and felt very comfortable with him which helped.) I was so impressed with how organized it was and how much fun Camden had. He learned so much and loved "Bible School" as he called it. 

His First Cardinals Game

We were gifted some baseball tickets for last night's game against the Pirates. Todd and I will be the first to tell you, we are not huge baseball fans, but who passes up free tickets? Camden had never been to Busch Stadium and Nick had been wanting to go, so off the four of us went.
As we were sitting there waiting for the first pitch, we noticed the sky start to cloud up. Yep, the game was delayed until 8:00pm due to the impending severe weather. We finally get the game started after 8, they played one inning and it started to sprinkle. Out comes the tarp. Boo! This happened three times and I was getting annoyed. Poor Camden was not impressed either. The game was more of a pitching duel-no runs were scored until the 9th inning. Needless to say, we made it until about 10:00pm and decided to call it a night. We were happy to hear that the Cardinals did win 1-0 finally. And.....that's enough baseball to last this girl until next year!
