How sweet are my babies??? On our way to school every morning...I always make it a point to say our prayers for the day and to sing some songs with them. You all know Evan LOVES to sing. He joined in with me singing his ABC's. He wouldn't say them all but would randomly sing certain letters when I would get to them. He is such a smarty!! Emma was too busy taking her shoes off to join in on the singing fun. I don't know why I bother even putting them on her until we get to school. Monday night we finally started working on getting our pool ready. It has taken us almost a week to get the water off the top of the pool cover. We haven't even started working on the green water underneath. One of these years...Justin is going to winterize the pool like he is supposed to...so it won't be a nightmare when we uncover it. I am holding onto the hope that I will one day have a in the ground pool. Justin has finally said he would like that too...so there is hope that my dream may one day come true. Until then...we are going to enjoy the one we have!! :) Hopefully it will be ready before July this year!! Tuesday, I had to go to a conference in Charlotte. It was such a long and boring day! Not only did I have to sit and listen to people talk for 6 and 1/2 hours in the same room...but Evan decided not to sleep much Monday night. So his momma didn't sleep and had to fight to stay awake all day. I couldn't believe of all nights, he chose Monday night to cry on and off for several hours. Then, as soon as he quit...Emma started! Wednesday ended turkey hunting season, so of course Justin went one more time. I thought it ended on the 30th...but this year they could hunt May 1st as well. Go figure!! Thursday & Friday were rainy and cold. Pretty much all week was rainy and cold!! It is May now...where is our spring weather??? Saturday, we were supposed to have a table at the town wide yard sale, but when we got up and it was rainy, cold, & extremely windy...we decided against selling at the yard sale. Justin and I did go down there for a while to look around...but even that didn't last long. I am NOT a fan of yard sales. It is mostly just JUNK that some else is trying to get rid of. We have enough of our own junk that we don't need to buy other people's junk! Saturday afternoon, we went to Carter Evan's 2nd birthday party at Emerald Farms. It poured rain the majority of the time we were there. I hated that for Carter...but the rain didn't stop our fun. Here are some pictures from the party...
Evan getting ready to take a swing!
He did pretty good by himself. Maybe Justin practicing baseball with him is already paying off!!
Emma decided to give it a try!
Jacob wanted to help!
These three enjoying cake & other goodies!!
Emma having fun climbing on the chairs!
Aunt Katie and Evan...and he's still eating!
These are just a few pictures of our fun time at Carter's birthday party. After the party we headed to town and over to Aunt Katie' to work on a Mother's Day gift for my mom and Justin's mom. Here are a couple pictures of work in progress and the finished project...thanks to Pinterest.
Getting all our supplies ready. They are anxiously waiting to start painting!!

The finished product!!
I knew it would be safe to post this picture here because my mom will NEVER figure out how to look at my blog by herself!! We ended this lovely rainy day with supper and a baby Einstein DVD. I told you these two are mesmerized by these DVD's. They stood right here almost the whole 30 minutes watching the TV. These DVD's are lifesavers when we can't go outside!!
This is a quick little update about some things going on with the Turner's. Let's just hope the rain slacks off for a while and the weather warms up. We are ready for some more OUTSIDE time. Hope you all have a great rest of the weekend!!
