The George Adventures

“Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.” -Ashley Smith

Bring on the rain...And the blessings....


Well, the rain fell hard last weekend...Kevin went to jail with a $2,200 bond. Now we owe our lives to the people who bailed him out with CASH so he could be with his family for Easter! He sat in there for 9 hours "thinking and praying." We are so extremely blessed to have such caring people in our lives! He got out of jail to find out that he was no longer employed...can't say that he was too sad about that though. That place is toxic and since he's not there any more his chest pains have diminished greatly!

This weekend was quite an adventure as well! We found out to keep our lawyer we needed $2,500...we have tapped all our resources so we had to give him up after paying him $600!! However, Kevin went and met his court appointed lawyer today and said he felt a lot better about him! Then Friday JoelBob went to stay with his buddy Keely while Kevin and I went to a gestational diabetes class. I got a new bright green glucometer!! Woohoo! Then we busted our humps getting ready for our Saturday only garage sale! I was up until 4am making carrot cakes to sell! Kevin got lucky when Joel woke up inconsolable at 2am and didn't want anyone but his daddy...so Kevin got to lay down with Joel in his big bed. He said he didn't sleep a wink though because Joel kept stirring. Saturday at the yard sale we had a steady crowd all day and made around $200!! That was not including the paintings I sold...one of which was gifted back to Kevin by one of my dear friends just because it was his favorite! How sweet!! Kevin got his picture in the paper depicting him as a horrible person...my favorite part was when they put his address in there. Hello, we have children to think of paper people!! Anyway, we also were told by many people that we need to open a bakery! Kevin jumped all over that like white on rice! We got an order for a cake needed by next weekend! It's going to be a new Ford Mustang! We are also going to do some pretty blue cupcakes to fill up the order!

I am going to do some more paintings for our next garage sale...which I think is going to be Friday and Saturday. Still accepting donations!! Drop them on the front porch! Kevin and Joel love throwing garage sales...they are such people persons! Now on to the fun part....new pictures! There are so many cute ones...so bear with me!

One of my cakes...this one went to my Nana and her hubby.

Joel woke up with a fever one day and decided to cuddle with Daddy and fall back asleep! It was adorable!!

Later fever day when Joel was feeling better he apparently climbed in the stroller and Daddy found him and took this laughable picture!!

I cannot resist taking sleeping baby pictures...only problem is, this is a sleeping big boy!! :-(

Joel's bunny that we got him for Easter! It looks a little evil in this picture but it is a very sweet bunny!

 Joel and Daddy mowing the yard with the reel mower...also adorable!!!

Joel and Daddy using the Moby wrap for the first time. Joel picked those flowers himself!

Another adorable picture!!

Auntie Penny brought some bikes over for the yard sale next weekend and Kevin promptly grabbed the Moby wrap and wrapped Joel up. Joel loved it so much he threw a fit when he had to come inside!!

Look Mom!! No hands!!

So after the fit was thrown Joel and Daddy had more fun on the elliptical. Too bad everything about this picture is messy because it is really cute!! Joel looks like a ragamuffin and his Daddy has a scraggly hasn't shaved in a week beard...not to mention the messy garage sale stuff in the background. Oh well, it still says "love!"

Well, that is all for now. I am sure there will be many more stories and pictures in the weeks to come!

Love the moby and the cake was phenominal! I have a recipe for a fancy coconut cake for you.

Kevin and Joel really love the Moby too! It's amazing what all they can do with it! I have thought about boosting my belly up with it when it hurts! LOL! Yeah, we still have 1/2 cake sitting on our counter and it's not helping my blood sugars out. At least I know they are going to be high after eating a piece. I tried not to give in last night to it...but I did! Oops.

Can't wait to try the recipe! It sounds yummy!! I have been finding way too many recipes online lately. Don't know what to do with them all!!
