Google

So tonight I was online searching (google) for an item so I thought what about if I google my name "Emily Love Jones image".  So this is what I got back:
This is my wedding portrait. 

This was a shock that I actually found a picture and it was the first one to come up.  Has anyone googled themselves?

Caught...........

Mommy caught me!
Caught Brooklyn on the stairs (on her way down)

Got milk?

Today has being to be a crazy day-----
First I forgot to pick up milk last night at the grocery store so when my two little ones got up this morning they wanted milk and I did not have any.  So what does a super mommy do go to the local gas station and get a strawberry milk for them to share.  I live in the country so it is not as quick to get to the grocery store as when I lived in New Bern.  Living in the country I wish we had milking cows but then I got to thinking when do I have time to keep up a cow and milk her everyday.  Well, that is another message......
I have a lady that sometimes will come over and help me clean so today she came because I had so much to do with cleaning house, changing closets, school work, and baby time that I needed help.  She must have heard my cry.  So I am blessed to have her come help me on days I need help.  I know you say you are a stay at home mom and someone helps you with cleaning.  Well, my life does not stop as a stay at home mom, I am more busy now than when I was a full IT administrator at ECU. 

Here is my job title: wife, mommy, teacher, housekeeper, shoulder to cry on, clean noses, butts and cook.  So you tell me what my job is worth and I would have to say priceless.  I get to wake up and see my beautiful daughters laugh, cry and desire to be with me and they love me.  I am not saying that it is easy but it worth every second I get to see them smile.
So to conclude each day will bring challenges I just have to look at the positive it will bring.  And give all God the glory.

As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.  Joshua 24:15

Jone and Coghill Family Vacation

On Wednesday night Oct. 6-Oct. 9th we spent time as a family at Cherry Grove Beach, SC.  We had a blast.  My birthday was last night Oct 8th so the entire families got me a cake and we had pizza.  It was so much fun.  So here is what we done in 3.5 days.
Wednesday night:  Pastor Scott, Kristie, Emily and I stayed up until 4:30am talking and catching up

Thursday:  Channing had to go back to work so the rest of us went to Hamburger Joe's and then to North Myrtle Beach, SC park.  That night Channing came back to a home cooked meal:  Fried chicken, mac-n cheese, rice and green beans.  The kids went to bed and the adults stayed up again taling about old times.

Friday:  My birthday......Went to Chic-fil-a for lunch and then went to Mayday Miniature Golf Course.  It was Kennedy's first time playing golf and she had so much fun.  That evening Kristie and I went to shop at Tanger and Marshall's can you believe that I did not spend a dime on myself.  Channing gave me money to buy something for my birthday well I spent it on my best friend Kristie.  She is a blessing to me and I love her so much.

Saturday:  We have spent the day playing outside and watching Letters to God and Disney Up. 












Channing took the kids to ride around on the golf cart
Putt-Putt time

Robeson Regional Agricultural Fair-2010

Channing and I took the girls to the Robeson Regional Agricultural Fair on October 5, 2010.  They had a blast.  Kennedy rode some of the kiddie rides by herself. Brooklyn could only ride the carousel and she had so much fun on it we rode it twice.

 Kennedy wanted to play the fishing game.  She caught three fish and won a green dog.

 Kennedy on the flying dinos.  She loved it!
 Brooklyn loved her balloon.
 Brooklyn enjoying her cotton candy.  Her entire face and mouth was blue. 
Kennedy enjoying the cotton candy.

The first booth we attended was the live stock.  Kennedy loves animals so she was so happy to see goats, ducks, donkey, ponies and so much more.  Brooklyn loved looking at all the people and lights. 
The girls were getting hungry so we started looking for dinner.  Brooklyn started smelling the good food and started to cry so we knew we needed to find food FAST.  So Channing got pizza, fried chicken, collards, fat back and fried corn bread.  And also a lemonade for the girls.  Before we left Kennedy wanted cotton candy and they had to try it before we even left the parking lot. 

I enjoyed the fair as a kid but taking my daughters was so much fun.  I know that they will not remember the fair but I will always remember the smiles on their face.

House Plans

Each week it seems that I have a favorite house plan so that is going to have to stop because all the books and  web pages are taking over my house and computer.  Well today I have decided to narrow my top 5 house plans.  I hope that Channing will like them.  I will post pictures soon.  Also we think we have found land I am so exited.  Let the house planning begin.....
