Are you tired of worrying about the chemicals in your house affecting your children? Contact me through my website http://www.safe4myfamily.com/ or my e-mail feliciadecker@yahoo.com and I will talk to you about the new store we use.
Well till next time God Bless!

They asked if they could do that next summer. William was given a special gift today from Andy Nunez. He had recorded the children's performance in May, and gave it to Bubba. He loved it.
Sunday William's role model Jonathan did a presentation on his mission trip to South Africa. William loves listening to missionaries. He is such a well rounded child.

Since I have joined face book I have found some old friends from High School, and from Colorado. It has been fun catching up. I look forward to finding more old friends and enjoying getting reacquainted with all of them. I have also started playing farm games, taking quizzes, and playing other games.
This was a fun 4th of July filled with new events for us. We did not go to the parade this year.
Friday Felicity's and William's friends Rachel and Daniel came over to play. We always enjoy when they come over.
We went downtown Arlington for the 4th of July event they had at the new Pavilion. We listened to music, ate tons of food, Felicity and William played in bounce houses and made crafts, saw some friends, and watched fireworks. We had a blast.
Saturday Billy worked and after he got home we went to Bicentennial Park and ate, listened to music and Felicity and William played Water Tag, and on a water slide. It was exciting and fun. We came home and ate Brisket, Potato Salad, Devil Eggs, Baked Beans, and Watermelon.
We hope that everybody had a fun and safe 4th of July. Enjoy the pictures.

SLOW CALM WEEK

Felicity's favorite

This is Bob's car

This was my favorite

We all liked this one

Well this has been a slow week. Last Saturday we went to Fort Worth to Aubrey's Birthday Party. Aubrey was in my Girl Scout Troop and they moved to Fort Worth. We had fun. There was water play, pizza, cake, ice cream, and goody bags.

Then we went to a Car Show, where our friend Bob had one of his at. William is into cars. I almost cry when I see his enthusiasm with cars because that was my Dad's passion. I use to go to car shows all the time with my Dad. He would be so proud of William.

Nothing much has happened this week. My friend Kim made Director in her new business. I am so happy for her.

Well now review on Melaleuca products. We used the stain remover this week, and all my goodness it works. And my crew leaves stains and other stain removers do not work. This one did. I bought 2 bottles and it actually turns into 4 bottles. Well I need to put a July order in soon.

Felita signed up to be a customer this week, and I am waiting for all of you to switch stores to Melaleuca. The products are better for the environment and your health, and they work. You are not spending more money than you already do. So do not say you can not afford it.

Well last night I joined face book. Felicia is getting with the times. Well I will talk more later. Have a Happy and Safe 4th of July. We have plans, and I will post pictures.

WHAT A WEEK

Look at my babies with their glasses they match their Mommy now

Well this has been a crazy week. We had Vacation Bible School at church. I helped in crafts, and Billy helped in snacks. The children had fun . Felicity and William's friends Rachel and Daniel went with us. All four of them made new friends. The theme was Boomerang Express, all about Australia. There were Kangaroos, Kola Bears, and Boomerangs every where. It was fun.

Felicity and William got their glasses today. They look cute.

William got to go to Alley Cats with his three best friends Logan, Daniel, and Alex. He loves Alley Cats.

Felicity had a play date with Rachel while the boys were gone, and they played girly things and watched Ariel The Beginning.

I had a crazy event happen this week. A few weeks ago I dropped a plate on my right toe, and it hurt. It got black and then it opened up and got better well this week the toe nail fell off, and it looks gross. I know it will grow back, but still in the mean time it is nasty.

We also got new cell phones this week. It will take me weeks to figure it out. It is a LG V Cast from Verizon. I bet you wonder how we got that kind of phone. Well remember that new store we are trying out Melaleuca. As a member of Melaleuca we have access to special offers and Melacom is a phone provider that helped us each get a free phone from Verizon and a good one and get an awesome deal on a phone plan. It is real cool. Our cell phone bill is cheaper than our Sprint bill was.

I also have two more products from Melaleuca to brag about. We tried the Dishwasher Soap and my dishes came out better than ever. And then the pain medicine CounterAct Pain is helping me with my toe pain, and my migraines. And most of you know my migraines are horrible and nothing usually works. Well this stuff does. We are so pleased with Melaleuca. I am so happy to share our discovery with our friends. Till next time God Bless and have a safe and fun weekend.

A NEW STORE

2009-06-23T16:13:00.000-05:00

Can you tell which one is the before and which one is the after?

I have discovered an awesome store, and I wanted to share it with all of our friends. It is called Melaleuca. My parents use to order from them when I was a child, but they stopped. Billy and I decided it was time to try them ourselves. I will share with you the products we ordered with our first order.

We ordered a shampoo for the children, and oh my goodness. Usually washing Felicity's hair is nightmare, but the soap got in her eyes and no tears. And it was easier to get the soap out of her hair than normal.

The adult shampoo we ordered is Herbal and it made hair feel smooth and it looks shinny.

We ordered toothpaste and it does not leave that nasty after taste.

The bar of soap we got had a long lasting lather.

Billy has real bad flaky nasty looking skin, and we got this lotion called renew and his legs look smooth and no flakes. He can now wear shorts.

We also ordered crackers and the kids like them better than Cheeze - Its.

We ordered three other products but we have not used them yet. Stay tuned for updates on all future orders. I love placing my order and then it comes to me. No waiting in Walmart lines. Did I tell you all the products are natural products and have no chemicals added. They are awesome, and I am excited about using them and sharing them with all of you.

Hello all,

It has been a while. I have so much to tell. I am going to try to stay current on the blog from now on.
Billy and I decided to be Felicity's Girl Scout leaders. We started with 4 girls and ended with 15. Felicity sold 380 boxes of cookies. We took the girls to Disney on Ice and they had a blast. Our girls earned a lot of patches and all of their petals. I also got outstanding leader of the year.
William had a great football season they lost one regular game and made it to the playoffs. They lost that game, and ended the season number 2.
RAs went great this year they attended a Rally. RA Congress William got a third place Metal for the Hero Olympics. They also went to Athens to the Fishery and William caught 4 fish. In October they went on a camp out to River Bend. William also memorized over 25 verses.
Billy is still at Walmart, and we love our discount card.
I am on the PTA Board next year doing the PR and in charge of Teacher Appreciation. I am also on the North Star Unit Service Team next year as the Troop Organizer for Pope.
William's Birthday this year was Nascar and we had it at the Church and everybody brought their bikes. It was a blast.
Oh yeah in January Felicity decided to cut her hair, and it was short. It is growing back.
I am sure that is not everything, but that is a good catch up. I know you want to see pictures, and I will add them in another post.
Felicity also attended a Cheer leading clinic and she was picked to cheer next year at a High School game.
Felicity also only took dance classes for two months. She got tired of it. She is interested in Gymnastics, and we are thinking of that.
Both Felicity and William need glasses. William had two pairs and has broke both. We are waiting for his third pair. He needs them to read. Felicity has a stigmatism.
Well Bye for now enjoy catching up. More later.

Well we survived the first week of school. I tell people that my crazy schedule has begun. William had football practice Thursday, and we had meet the teacher night for ECEC that night. Both children are doing great in school. They changed Felicity's teacher to MRS. Winborne because they had a decrease in Kindergarten students, so they went from 5 classes to 4 classes. She is happier now because she has friends from last year in her new class. We started back to GA'S, RA'S and Mission Friends. Billy had 6 boys from 1st to 3rd grade. We had 8 girls from 1st to 6Th grade sorting school supplies. Felicity took a friend to Mission Friends. It was a fun night. Felicity had dance Tuesday, and she is doing good. William is so happy to be back in football, and they have two new boys on their team. They have 16 boys, and only 8 showed up today for an extra practice. We went to two car shows this weekend. William loves to check out the cars, and he gets so amazed at some of them. We love to watch him walk around to car and car and ask questions. Tomorrow is 5Th Sunday time for lots of food and lots of music. I think Felicity and William are singing. They have not decided yet. We have another crazy week this week. William has football practice Tues, Thurs, and Fri. Felicity has dance Tues. I have two meet the teacher nights one Wed for Felicity, and then William's Thurs. We have Mission Groups Wed.

Please keep in prayer our friends the Nunez. Doris is recovering from her trip to the hospital last week, and Andy was moved to another hospital.

Also keep us in your prayers. We have some issues this week that we pray we get through successfully.

Keep ECEC in prayer for the teachers, students and parents that our first week back is a success.

Have a good week. We hope the first week of school went well for everybody. Enjoy the pictures from our first week. Till next time GOD BLESS EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU.

RA CAMP SERVICE

PARTNERS IN CRIME

LAD 1 AND THEIR LEADER

I AM JUST LIKE MY DAD.

Sunday we had the RA camp service. The boys went to RA camp AUGUST 12-16. 5 Lads, 5 Crusaders, 1 Challenger, 8 adults from our church went to help. Billy and Frank took care of the Lads 1st-3rd grade. Kim and Amy took care of the Crusaders 4th-6th grade. Ronnie and Bro. Al took care of the Challengers painting and fishing. DuWayne William is one of the directors of RA camp, John Estes dad of Joe Estes went to teach the Bible story for the Challengers. William had a blast. They all had fun. William's favorite thing was the Paddle Boats. All of the boys spoke at the RA service especially our boy. He would think of more stuff to talk about and he got up and talked. He is not shy. I am glad both of my guys got to go and share William's first camp experience together. I have heard some funny stories. When you ever talk to William ask him about the banana story. Also we got to see Frank at the RA service shake to a camel song. We were all laughing and feeling sorry Diane. Enjoy the pictures.

CLASS LIST REVELED

2008-08-22T19:31:00.000-05:00

We all know which class we have. Felicia found out last week that she is teaching the twos. Today Felicity and William found out who they have. Felicity has Mrs. Dunn. William got Mrs. Selke. We saw Mrs. Dunn around last year. We went to meet her tonight, and Felicity found out that a child that is not nice to her is not in her class, but that some of her friends are. William found out that a child he does not get a long with is not in his class, but he got the teacher he wanted. For those of you who do not know Mrs. Selke is Kathy Selke who goes to our church. We know her quite well. William was so excited that he got her. We are two for tons of reasons. It is so hard each year going through this process. We pray that they get teachers that are good teachers. I know all of you understand that. We also prayed for those two not so nice children not to be in their classes. We do not know much about Felicity's teacher. Billy and I will try to volunteer as much as we can. Felicia has a boss that understands and lets Felicia off for the kids events at school. Keep the children and Felicia in prayer as school and ECEC start back. School starts Monday, and ECEC starts September 2nd. We pray for all of you who teach and have children in school.

HAIDEN MARIE FISHER IS HERE

2008-08-22T00:12:00.000-05:00

Sorry for all the blogs at one time. We have been real busy getting ready for school. Please keep our friend Felita and Alyssa in your prayers as they deal with Haiden's father. Also our friend Andy Nunez has been in the hospital for over a month, and he has his good days and bad days. He went in for a piece of glass in his foot and he has got worse having other issues. Please remember his wife Doris, daughter Valerie, and son Andrew who is starting college this year.

August 9th we had a pool birthday party for Felicity. There were 9 children, and 14 adults. It was a blast. Billy made the cake and it turned out great. She got so much stuff. Everything was greatly appreciated. There was even people at church who were unable to make the party who bought her gifts. She is a very loved little girl. August 10th was her actual birthdate, and we asked her where did she want to go for her birthday lunch and she said McDonalds. She thinks she is all grown up now. We are not allow to call her baby anymore. She recieved lots of money and she decided to buy school clothes with it. Shopping with a 5 year old girl tax free weekend was an adventure in itsself. She wanted everything. Money is no object to her. She also got a Build -A -Bear gift card, and that was an interesting experience. And since The Disney Store was across the hall we just had to go in there. The merchandise was calling Mom's name. She actually wanted to hurry up and go to Build- A- Bear. We did find an Ariel shirt for a good deal, and she got it. She named her Bear Sarah, and it drove mommy up the wall. She got a ballet outfit for it. Go figure. She also wanted P.J.s, but I said later. We are so glad Birthdays only come once a year. Enjoy the pictures.

We are so busy this week with Felicity's dance, Felicia's jewerly party, Felicity's Birthday and getting Billy and William ready to leave for camp next week.
