Weekend fun!


We had a fun weekend recently -- filled with good times. Friday night we went to Indiana Beach with John, Jess & Meredith. Saturday was Stacy's Bachelorette Party on the River and Sunday was Gram Pat's birthday party at Brad & Jacki's, followed by dinner at Matt & Amanda's. (Surely some of you are sighing about right now -- going, jeez, they run around A LOT!). Truthfully, i am too, after reading that...but you know what's sad. We didn't have ANYTHING planned for Friday night. Nothing. Who's idea was it to go to Indiana Beach even though she's running on empty.....MINE! I swear to you, there is something genetically wrong with me, that I can't not have something going on. Granted, looking back, we had a great time. But I'm exhausted, and we're going right into another crazy weekend. Although, hopefully this one will be more relaxing....kind of vacationish. We're going to Spring Mill State Park for Brock & Kelsey's wedding. Should be a good time with the Robinson's....never a dull moment anyway!

Here are some pictures from our whirlwind weekend...
Colton & Meredith on the boat ride....Meredith was more interested in the water at first, but soon she'd wave every time around!
 
I bought some Cotton Candy (how do you say no to that stuff) and Colton apparently didn't care for the first bite I gave him....
 
Carousel Rides...
   
The kids rode almost every ride by themselves....but this one they said an adult should probably ride. So I took one for the team....I think they enjoyed it. Watching Meredith's face was hilarious....it was like, "WHAT THE HECK"....until Colton would laugh, then she thought it was hilarious!

This is the only appropriate picture to share from Stacy's Bach Party...the boys met us back at Clay's after the float trip...Dad was lovin it! :)
 
Gram Pat's Birthday Party


Colton didn't want to share Meredith's tractor with anyone....so he was obviously not happy with Isaac riding it around!  Happy as a lark once he had it back....we need to work on sharing!
 
Jenna wanted to ride the moped!

First ear of sweet corn!

The kids loved swimming, even though it wasn't overly warm out!

And finally -- our visit with Matt & Amanda. Matt is ALWAYS telling me to keep Colton away from his daughter, etc, etc....you know, protective dads of little girls.Well, you'll appreciate the last picture, where it's totally obvious that Mya has a thing for Colton! :)

Yes, she's grabbing his leg, and kind of grinning about it too!

And finally -- my little monster! Enjoy!
 
Have a great weekend!

Get Well Soon, Grandpa Kent

 Here's the best way to share Dad's video. Thank you all so much for submitting the clips. This really made him smile (and say some funny things the first time we watched soon after anesthesia). I think it will be treasured company this evening in the hospital. Thank you for your prayers, your thoughts, for answering the phone calls and lifting Dad up. We appreciate all your love and support.  58E2238E-D2E3-4B38-9FF6-AE1E502ABD14.mp4

Two + Two + One more = FIVE

Yup, you read that right, by the end of July, the Stockment's will officially be a family of five. Jason and I learned in mid-November that we were expecting our third child and we were both overjoyed with the news. (More so than I thought Jason would be -- he wasn't convinced on having another (or should I say, not as convinced as I was), but once he saw that baby's heartbeating on the monitor at the docs office, he couldn't keep it a secret anymore!!) I convinced Jason to keep our news to immediate family, however, failed to remember that we have a VERY chatty 4 year old, and a 2 year old who repeats everything her big bro says! :) So, we told our families on a Tuesday evening (after our doc appointment that afternoon) and by Thursday, I think half of White County knew. If you attend or drop children off to attend Pam's daycare or Bright Beginnings Preschool, you were amongst the first to know! I had hoped for some elaborate scheme to tell both of our parents ...

Life's Beachy

What a whirlwind month March has been! From the baby reveal to birthday parties (Madi turning 3, Sawyer turning 2 and soon Brad & Debbie!), to Jason working weekend after weekend at his side job, to moving Matt & Sarah into their new home, to Jason getting a new job, to kindergarten round up, to preparing for Florida....whew! Yup, you read that right -- after 14 years with Bouma Betten, Jason is making a jump. He applied for a job with Monsanto in Remington, and was lucky enough to be offered the job just last week. I am so beyond proud of him -- he's not a resume/interview kind of guy, but he put his best foot forward and proved what a hard worker he is. He'll start there as a Seed Tech in mid-April and although it will mean big changes for him (and US!), it will be worth it. The benefits cannot be topped...vacation time, paid time off for sick leave, 401K, health -- all things he didn't have (or did have, but not great) in his current job. It will certainly be a...
