Gpa and Gma Choo Choo

Colt’s great grandparents came for dinner last Friday. . . of course, Grandpa Haas makes such realistic train and animal noises and the kids loves it! Colt some how renamed Gpa Haas to Papaw Choo Choo And since Gma Haas is such a loving and loyal wife, she changed her name too Grandma Choo Choo.

The Forelines

We had a great visit from David’s (and mine now) cousins, Michelle and Dane Forelines, last week. They were in Raleigh and came over for an afternoon visit. It was fun to see them and we always enjoy talking to them! They are such a sweet and neat couple who obviously love the Lord and […]

Welcome to Our Home

We are almost 100% finished with this foreclosure’s renovations. Unfortunately, we have lost most of our “before” pics somewhere. So, I’ll just give you pics and little description of what David has put into it. I say “what David has put into it” because he has done 99% of it single handedly. I’m so impressed […]

I just feel sorry for the neighbors who get to listen to these nonstop-talking-2-year-olds (who seem to get overly excited when they are together) during their peaceful evenings at the lake.

Between Mom and Aunt B (or “BB” as Colt so affectionately calls her), Colt ended up with a birthday cake. And not just ANY birthday cake. . . but a “Colt” cake as you can see by the pictures. He thought that was pretty cool. Licking the icing off the candle (you can see the […]

Playing at the lake

Colt is enjoying playing with Sarah this week at the lake. It’s cute to see how they actually play together and interact differently since they are older. We are having lots of fun with the fam too – tubing, water skiing, jet skiing, playing rook and other fun games. It’s been lots of fun so […]

To Colt with Love

Well Bubby. . Mommy had to work on your birthday. The good news is you probably wouldn’t have ever known if I didn’t just write it here in cyber space where it will remain forever The bad news is that I’ve never been one that really cared about celebrating on the “actual day” before. For […]
