TN GIRL - Home from China ~

mmmm.. I would love to say a million things - although the only thing this picture does not say is they landed and was off the plain by 7:45!! THANK YOU ALL for your Prayers and Support for their journey to get Bronwyn - the sweetest part ... The real journey has just begun

Bronwyn's Mommies favorite picture

Not sure that I can say anything!! Kristin, it is one of my favorite's too but the look in her eyes and the smile on her face when she is in your arms is also a favorite!! I love you all much!!
Kristin and Stacy said Bronwyn's first flight was good - all contributed to food being served! BE SAFE and we will see you all soon!!!

Waiting on our NEW ADDITION ~ Bronwyn A Tadlock

Proud Parents : Stacy & Kristin Tadlock

Such an emotional time and being so far away from home - CHINA- their return is February 13th with the sweetest gift ever.. Bronwyn Amaris Tadlock. We are thankful to all the giving hearts that lead this daughter to her parents who have long awaited her. In one of the emails that Stacy had written to me he said ... She has such a special family to come home too - I had to reply "Special" is a good word and that would cover it, in the nicest way :) (our families totally get it)!! Seriously, what a foundation for this little girl to have!! Parents - Grandparents - Great Grandparents - Aunts - Uncles - Cousins and more Cousins - I have always said with our foundation there is NOTHING impossible ~ You can never love too much~ Let new life begin in the arms of a wonderful family~ I Love you ALL much

LAKE RIDENOUR #43

First Game Second Game (Yes that is TWO on one) Two tackles GO Lake !! The pictures are hard to see although I have BETTER ones to come - Uncle Sonny is getting ready to beat me if I don't start updating ~ This year is going to be a tough fight - Lake did not play last year so has a lot of catching up to do! (Boy has he felt it) - Thanks Rodney for that extra PUSH! Erin.. my peapod looks like I did not scar him to bad - he sure is a tuff young man :) You would be proud. Lake is his Pap Ridenour made over with his Nanny & Didiees Heart!! I am not sure what part I played except loving a GREAT KID!!

Over the hills and through the woods - to Grandma's house we go

We made it to see Nanaw & Papaw. Much fun !!

Morgans Weekend

This is Morgan weekend - We all love us some Morgan. What a surprise that we got Aaron and Jada with this Trip ( just so you all know, Michelle is running a tough race for Lake's number one spot) after the last trip (FUN STUFF, huh Michelle) This is Morgan first LONG trip with Daddy and Jennifer (Mommy) is missing her badly!! and... I am thinking "grandma" is trying to get an early return home for Morgan :) soon grandma soon - We are going to see Nanaw, Papaw and Uncle John tomorrow. Morgan and Mommy are taking a nap ;) Aaron and Lake are playing something "loud" guitar hero, maybe - me and Jada, just chilling - until tomorrow, loving you today!! M

Been a while - with a lot going on. I last left off at the living room half finished, the birth of Annabell and promise to tell you about the Wyrick wedding. SO.. the living room floor is finished (the fireplace mantel still not found) Annabell is spoiled, I am not sure she is off the bottle yet... (I am still in Iowa - working - will be coming home soon) and we all survived the travel in a VAN that held 10 of us, it was wonderful family time. Some of the wedding pictures are on flickr and we now have Princess Morgan (Jennifer's sweet baby girl) pictures on flickr. I must say many months of blessings. I promise to update on the house - and Rodney's newest project "the shop" its another house - I have much to do after being gone for 2 months (TODAY). Rodney and Lake have managed to hold down the house .... finished putting in the Hardy Heater (outside)-wood heater - Thank you uncle Roger for that last push (you are Rodney's HERO), cutting much wood, LOST the dogs (Mia & Izzie who ended up in dog jail) ,both so tired they slept for two days and keeping everyone healthy and Fed. I am proud out you both!! Mitch... has moved all the roommates out and got a new one (Copper) pictures on flickr, changed jobs (same company) working in the freezing cold (thank you Rodney for dressing him warm) I am proud of you Mitch BIG changes going on with you BUT ...I am still going to BUST your tail when I get home - I miss you ALL much and will give you the BIGGER picture on things when I get there.

Until tomorrow... Loving you ToDAy!!!
