Gone Fishin'

Ben broke his new Scooby Doo fishing pole in the other day by catching his first fish. I am not sure if he was more excited about the Scooby Doo fishing pole or catching fish, but we had a great time. Here are some of the pictures of the action...

Here is Ben with his first catch ever!

So excited to catch a crappie

Wow, that catfish is as long as my leg

House Update

Since I have been getting the question lately about where we are in the selling and building process, I thought I would give an update. We got a contract on our house that we are selling in the first 26 days (praise the Lord). We close on April the 17th, so we have been spending the last 3 weeks packing and moving a little at a time. We have finished the clearing of our new place and plan to start dirt work and building within the next two weeks. It looks like if everything goes as planned, we could be in our new home sometime around October. I have added a few before and after pictures of the tree clearing. We bought this lot because of the nice trees it had on it. I never imagined that when we were done clearing, you would be able to count the ones left on two hands.

Ben is all about anything to do with tractors (and a trackhoe fits in the tractor category for him)

A Few More Wedding Pics

Here are a few more pics of the wedding we went to last weekend. Ben was so excited that Josie(our niece) got to come. She did so good after having her tonsils and adenoids taken out just the day before. They just loved dancing together....



Mr. C's (Ben C. that is) Cha-Cha Slide

We went to some friends of ours wedding last weekend, and these pictures were just too cute not to post. There was plenty of dancing after the wedding and let's just say that when the music started, you couldn't pull Ben off of the dance floor. He does this anytime there is music on at the house, but to see him do the Cha-Cha Slide with all of the girls was hilarious. He actually looked like he knew what he was doing and did a great job. Here are a few pics of the action and a link to the video of the real Cha-Cha Slide.
