B w/ his cake he made for uncle joe's 19th birthday
brycen's new hang out:)
it's really cute!I have not been very good at updating about day to day happenings lately.
Friday evening Rich & Melissa & the boys came for supper and to visit for awhile. It was a nice evening, pretty relaxing.
Saturday morning I had a massage! It was my first time ever. I had gotten a gift certificate for Christmas and hadn't had a chance to use it yet... it was about to expire so I thought I better go. It was so nice! Sonya, my sis-n-law went with me. Afterward, we went to Applebee's for lunch. When I got home I helped Ryan outside w/ more landscape edging. It was so hot and sticky outside! After we were done with that we got cleaned up and all three of us went to Wal-Mart and then to Scoops :). When we got home we had supper (yes, we had ice cream & then supper!). Then we went to play tennis! Otwell elem. is only about 5 min. from our house and they have a pretty nice tennis court so we went there and played. The playground is right by the tennis court so B got to play on the toys while we played tennis. He also got to hit around with us for awhile. He thought he was so cool! He actually didn't do half bad. Ryan and I both played tennis in school so hopefully we'll be able to teach him. They say tennis is a "life sport" b/c you can play at any pace. Lol, I know my pace is a lot slower than it was 5 years ago! haha. Anyway, we had a really good time and we're hoping to do a lot of playing tennis this summer.
Sunday we went to church and then over to Ryan's parents for lunch and to visit. When we got home B & I made a cake for my brother's birthday which we celebrated Sunday night at my parents house.
It was a pretty relaxing weekend and I was glad for that.
Yesterday I was super busy at work. I came home and had so much laundry and house work to do. Ryan got the yard mowed last night and I worked on the house... it seems never-ending... maybe I'm a little too obsessive-compulsive about the house, but I literally cannot sit still if there is stuff to do, it drives me crazy until I get up and do it.
This morning I wanted to stay in bed. I love to sleep when it's storming. Work was crazy again today! B was at my moms. He is staying there this summer. He absolutly loves staying with her and my grandma. today they went to Evansville. He got a new leather Harley Jacket.... and when they asked him where he wanted to eat lunch he said "red lobster"... oh my! We laughed and said we can't let my dad see it b/c he will think B needs a Harley already :)
This post is pretty boring... but I wanted to update!
Tonight my mom, Vanessa, and I are going to Melissa's Thirty-One party. Tomorrow is "the big day". I'm going to Antioch (just to clairfy something I think some misunderstood on my last post about this, is that I do not attend Antioch) to record my testimony. It speaks about my struggle with infertility, my miscarriage, and losing Andon. My parents do go to church at Antioch and that's how I know their pastor, Keith. He is a pretty great guy and I really respect him. He asked me last week if I would be interested in telling my story, about how through hard times, God has still been faithful, and shown himself through these circumstances. I am praying that the words I have prepared are the words that God wants me to share. I hope that glory will be given to God over this. I don't want Andon's life to be in vain and I feel that by sharing his story, our story, maybe someone can get closer to God, or even accept Jesus as their Savior. I will get around to posting it on here... but I'm still a little shy ;)
Anyway, please if you think about it say a prayer that God will speak through me tomorrow while I'm speaking on the video. I'll let ya know how it goes :)

Praying Chelsa!! I know your words will touch others...just as they already have touched your blog friends!
I said a little prayer for you last night:) I know you will do great today!! Once you start talking you will do fine. B looks pretty tough in his new jacket. Like the facial expression!
I hope your talk went well...it sounds like you had prepared well for it. Playing tennis...sounds like so much fun, but Alex refuses to play with me now! :) I just can't do it! I played softball my whole life, but the racket just totally screws me up! Oh, I wish I would have gotten ahold of you on Saturday! The kids could have rode bikes together at Prides Creek.
