The vacation..the party and the breakdowns.

Well, we went to the lake for the "post" memorial day vacation. We always like to go after the crowds leave. I mean there is nothing like having the whole lake to your self. Of course we went to Gillham, and there was only one camp ground open. The rest of them were under water!!

Aleeyah finally slowed down enough for me to take a couple of shots. She is growing up way to fast, and I know that cherishing these moments are essential!!

She can be the goofiest child you know. She is just like her daddy when she wants to be. I am not a joking/funny type of person. Serious is my motto!! I sometimes hate that about myself, and find that I am not alot of fun to be around. Aleeyah is like that to an extent, but then she has just enough of Sam in her!!! Averrie is the total opposite, always looking for a laugh.
We decided to let the girls play in bubbles while we were down there. Aleeyah wanted no part of it, since daddy hurt her feelings early (EXCUSES, got to love them)!! You would think that this picture above would have cause Averrie to shed tears.....wrong (see below).

She always has a smile on her face. She is so like Sam!!!! He went fishing one time at Iron's Fork lake. He had been gone for so long and I decided I would call his cell phone to check on him. He excitedly tells me that he CANNOT talk right now and he would call me back. I wait and the phone rings...Sam is on the other end just laughing. I ask him what is wrong and he proceeds to tell me that he has sunk our bronco!! WHAT?!?!?! Yep, he sunk it to the bottom of the lake. So I call mom and dad hysterical and tell them to go and help him. They find him and his father with the tow truck carrying the bronco. There was water running out the hatch, the doors and the door buzzer would not shut up. Guess what, Sam had a smile on his face. He was not worried at all. Averrie is just like him!!!

We got back Friday afternoon and began getting ready to go to Ft. Smith for a birthday party. JL turned three and we had not been given a chance to see her new little sister KL. This is her above, doesn't she have the cutest little profile!?! Her mommy will thank me for this picture. We had a blast even though we were the only people there!! LOOOOOOONG story!! So you want to get to the breakdown. Which one? The camper, the air conditioner, the emotional one? I have dealt with all three this week. The camper jack broke, and that would not be such a problem except it is electric and the motor went out. I won't go on about the cost since I am only liable to have the latter breakdown mentioned above. So we get home and realize that the house is way to hot. I turn the air on and NO AIR!! Arkansas spring/summer with no air is not a good thing. Called and got that one fixed thankfully it was a work out between us and the air man. Won't be costing me a fortune this time YEA!!!

So the final breakdown is the emotional one. For about a month now, I have been monitoring a knot in my left breast. As I am positive that this is probably nothing I still have thoughts going through my head. I worry really bad since my friend just buried her mother from breast cancer. Sandra had lost so much weight that she finally found the knot, but it was way to advanced to save her. Since I have lost 56 pounds, I fear this is the same thing. I am only human, and the human part of me worries. Though the Lord assures me that I am fine. I go to see the doc tomorrow, and pray that things are truly fine (as I am sure they are). Prayers will be really helpful if you could just send some up for me.
