Belly shots

Here are some belly shots for all those wanting to know how big I really am!! My belly is getting out there. When I was nine months Pregnant with Adina I made a cast of my belly, it is rather large so I tried it on the other day and I still have a few inches all the way around to go! This one may get a little bigger then the last two.

Paint ball fun 2!!

Paint ball fun!!

Hello all well today was a very interesting day. The Youth group went out to play paint ball at a local paint ball place. Well of course I am huge and we always take our girls with us on most youth activities, so there we are the four of us with five youth and three other adults! I did get to shoot a few kids. I even shot a few adults! Ananiah got to shoot the paint ball gun she loved it thought she was big stuff! John and I determined our kids already think they are part of the youth group, but they are going to think they are teen agers way before their time!!! They already act way to old for their ages! Anyway I did not get shot by any paint balls, neither of the girls did either. They had a good timing playing in the dirt and fields out there and watching their Papa shoot and get shot!! We all had a very interesting day and enjoyed it very much!!!

On another Note John has passed his PC ride(Pilot in Command) So now he is capable of being the pilot in charge of the flights! It sounds less impressive when I am writing it but he really has worked hard for this! He has been behind in flight time due to his commander and those in charg giving him way to many extra duties including the EOC duty where he had to deal with the fallen soldiers families and help them through all the red tape the military has! He was away with that for almost three months! He lost alot of flight time when he was away! So he is trying to catch up now! Well please be praying for him on his flying and his work with the Church, they both keep him very busy!

Easter and vacation!!!

Hello all well it has been a fun and adventurous couple of weeks! We had Adina's birthday party, John went and picked up Hayden and Jayme (his niece), then we had Easter. Then we went on a mini vacation to San Antonio. March is always busy with the Church cottage prayer meetings and now working on the new building. The McBride's have been so busy I think my world is finally stopped spinning and we can take a few days to rest! My poor feet are about to swell off my legs. I am huge and waddling around because of the baby being so low, everyone says they do not think I can go for three more months! When you see the pictures of us at Sea World you will think the same!! Easter was fun we had an Easter egg hunt at the church, it was wet so we had it inside our empty fellowship hall. It was lots of fun for the kids to find the eggs right on the floor!!! Then we left for San Antonio on Monday, after many problems and stops we finally got to Sea World around two in the afternoon, right before the Samau show started! Everyone was thrilled with that show. I think I am the only one that had seen it before. Even John enjoyed himself so much that day! The kids got wet over and over, they rode the water rides that were open and the little ones enjoyed the animals. Adina was in love with the penguins, she wanted to take them home. Both girls adore animals, they have Clydesdale's there and they are so beautiful. I took plenty of pictures please look on our ringo account for more pictures. The next day we went to the San Antonio zoo it was so much fun. I ended up in a wheelchair due to my hips and being so big!! It was interesting and fun to see the different animals and the children's reaction to them! The Hippos were my favorite! I think the girls loved the monkeys the best. Hayden liked it all. He helped to push his big o'l mom in the wheelchair as did Jayme! It was a very interesting and fun day! We were all tired by the time we got back to the hotel. After we checked out of the hotel the next day we went to find the Alamo for the adults fun filled day! The kids were slightly less interested in this outing! They had a good time but were hot and tired from all the past fun filled days! John truly enjoys stuff like that, he would spend his days in museums and history places if he could. So this was right up his ally! He learned some interesting information and had a good time! We all did! by the time we got home Wed. it was time to change for Church. Thursday was supposed to be a time of rest but in the end we were all busy trying to unpack and get the house in order, ok I was the kids and john played and Jayme worked on a school project! So today as John takes the kids back to Arkansas I will be finishing laundry and resting! My poor feet need it! LOL!
