Pround Aunt...

Hey everyone! Just wanted to brag a little...... I am always a proud Aunt for many reasons! But , today my nephew Tanner had his last day of school and it was awards day. He got EVERY award but one!!!!!! And has the highest overall GPA!!!!!!!! He has just finished the first grade and I am so excited and proud of him! Most of you know, but some don't, Tanner was diagnosed with asperger autism when he was about Cara's age. Through extensive therapy and GREAT persistent parents...he was finally considered "normal" about a year and half ago. I have always loved him and said that he's the smartest kid I know and he has proved that! He has tons of friends and loves everybody!

I LOVE YOU TANNER!!!!!!

Christie, Jamie, & Tanner Wallace

I am also very proud of ALL of my nieces and nephews, they have ALL done very well and won awards and what not! Congrats:

Tyler, Ryley, Lexi, Mackenzie, Sydney, Carley, Cameryn, Madison, & Morgan.

I am also very proud of my niece Kayce for growing up to a beautiful, successful, smart young woman. She is getting married in Jamaica October 3rd, 2009 and myself along with Teddy and Cara are VERY excited for her and can't wait to go!

WE LOVE ALL YOU GUYS :)

Memorial Day Weekend

I hope everyone had a memorable weekend! I know we FINALLY got some needed rest even though we decided to work on Saturday(it was worth while because we sold a couple of boats :). Even though we had spotty weather, it was still a lot of fun! My triplet nieces came in town and Cara just LOVES them. All the grand kids went skiing, tubing, and swimming! Everyone was worn out come yesterday. Dad was in town too and went for a ride on the boat with us yesterday! He stays gone so much that is was a pleasure to get some nice, relaxing time with him!
Thanks to all those who have served or are serving our country so we can enjoy everyday in America but especially the nice long weekends that are few and far between when we get to spend time with our families!

Where does the time go???

I hope everyone had a GREAT Mother's Day! I know I did! Plus we all have so much to be thankful for. I knew Memorial Day Weekend was coming up soon but at the same time it REALLY hit me today! Probably because we sold 6 boats in 2 days and everybody wants them this week! On top of everyone calling and wanting their boats serviced before the Holiday weekend......I have one question for those people.....WHY didn't you get your boat serviced in the Fall??????? So all of that top with over two weeks of it raining everyday.........has put us behind schedule to say the least. We will manage to get everything done somehow though but we'll be looking forward to the Holiday as well!
On another note.....I would like to ask everyone to pray for my best friends son and her family this week. Carter Houston is having brain surgery on Thursday to hopefully help with his seizures. Most of you know that his mom Leslie is my BFF and I really wish I could be in Cleveland with her this week! So please pray for him to have a smooth surgery, a speedy recovery, and hopefully this fixes his problems. He is not even a year old yet but he is a trooper! Wish them the best of luck this week!

Cara has been sick

Cara came down with a HIGH fever Saturday night that just wouldn't go away! So first thing Saturday morning Teddy called Dr. James and he was in the office so I loaded her up and off we went! We were then told she has Strep!!!!!!!!!!! AAAHHHH....how? Anyway, she still ran some HIGH fevers over the weekend but Finally started feeling better yesterday. Fever free yesterday!!! YEAH!!!!!! And somewhat back to her old self! So today she is back @ Nana's house......who got strep from Cara....and fortunately they are both doing better! Cara is still a little whiny but active again and not lifeless!

On another note.........it seems like it has rained for 40 days and nights here lately! The lakes are flooded and brown! Yuck! Hopefully it will dry out soon and get back to normal!
