Hannah and Kaleb 2010

While in Wilmington...Sarah, Chase and I took Hannah and Kaleb to Portrait Innovations to get their pictures made. Kaleb was not exactly wanting to cooperate at first, but we ended up getting some pretty cute shots! Hannah did a great job, and looks very beautiful in all her pics!

These are a few of my favorites of them together:

Catch Up - Family

There is so much to catch up on! The next few post will be family celebrations, and fun times like our vacation, as well as church activities like VBS! I will try and add post as I can until we are all caught up! Our Internet service is just so slow...that I get very discouraged uploading pics, so I will do my best to get things caught up because I love keeping my blog!

So here's what the Worthey's have been doing the last couple of months!

More updates to come soon!! :)

Heidi's Bday / Father's Day 2010

On June 8th, I (Heidi) celebrated my 42nd birthday! It was a really great day! Tommy and Chase were planning to surprise me with an under the counter TV for the kitchen that I have been wanting, but Tommy wasn't sure which one I wanted, so we went shopping...as we looked and looked for a good deal, I began to realize that it was alot of money that we just didn't have to spend for a TV, but Tommy assured me that it was OK, then I finally told him if we were gonna spend that kind of money that I would rather have the headboard/foot board for our bedroom suite (We gave Matthew and Sarah our bedroom suite when they got married in 2005 and we bought a new Mission set that I love, but we decided not to purchase the "Bed" at that time because we didn't have room in our townhouse in Wake Forest, so I have really been wanting to get it before the store didn't carry the exact one anymore) Anyway, We decided to make it a combination Birthday gift/Father's Day gift! So that's what we got our bed! And we both love it!! Well Tommy doesn't like the foot board so much, but he loves the bed!! :)
On Father's Day, we had a great time celebrating at Nathan and Hester's house...
I am very thankful for all the men in our family! I am thankful for my dad and all he means to me! I am also very grateful for my wonderful husband, Tommy! He is a great dad and wonderful example before our children, He is also an awesome Granddaddy. I am also very thankful for our 3 boys, they are each amazing dads to their children! And I don't want to leave out my brother, Robert that I love...and also my father in law.

Chase wrote a bio poem about her dad in Literature class this year, so as a special surprise for his office we printed it on scrapbook paper and decorated it and framed it for him!

Vacation Bible School 2010 - Luthersville Baptist Church

VBS this year was amazing, we did Lifeway's Saddle Ridge Ranch! We had such a great time, our VBS directors Allie and Amy did a fantastic job this year as usual! Along with the carpentry skills of Ron Brown everything was great! We also had a great group of volunteers this year and a wonderful group of kids! Each night our count grew and grew! Our biggest night was Thursday night when we had 92 kids! Thank you Lord!! We had a total count that night of 129! And the best part is that 2 of those kids accepted Jesus as their Savior and Lord that night! Praise God!
I could go on and on about our VBS, the entire thing was just amazing! Jeff Slaughter wrote some unbelievable songs (I am still singing them!) I know that the kids went away, knowing that when they have questions and need answers they can ask God!

Here's a slide show of some of the amazing decorations and fun times we had, I hope you enjoy!

I actually have more VBS pictures that I wanted to share..I just don't have them with me now, but I will add more soon!

Mother's Day 2010/Vacation Panama City Beach

I had a wonderful Mother's Day! Tommy and Chase bought me some much needed clothes, Tommy also gave me a beautiful Willow Tree figurine, and Chase gave me a new purse that I love!! However, The best part of Mother's day was that immediately following our church service the three of us jumped in the car and headed for Panama City Beach, FL for vacation! We spent an entire week in a beautiful resort with Nathan, Hester, Jacob, Kinley, and Elyn! We had such a great trip and we are so grateful that Nathan and Hester invited us to come along and share the condo with them!

Here's a slide show of some of our pics!

Chase made Colorguard!!

I just wanted to give you all a quick update! Chase made the color guard at Newnan High School for her 9th grade year...She starts practice next week and she is so thrilled to be a part of the Marching Band and follow in her brothers footsteps! Brian was a member of the East Coweta High School Marching Band all 4 years playing the Tuba, Nathan joined him for 1 year also playing the Tuba, but found that Marching band was not for him! Matthew then played the Tuba and the Baritone all 4 years of his time in high school for the Northgate High School Marching Vikings and now Chase is continuing with this tradition by Marching in the Color guard for the Newnan High School Marching Cats! I am so proud of Chase, she has wanted to be part of the Marching Band ever since she was a little girl and saw Matthew perform! Although as she became involved in cheer leading this past year at Smokey Rd, she had decided to pursue cheer leading and she gave it her all, she was at tryouts the whole week, but unfortunately she did not make the cheer leading team, but that did not defeat her, she went on and tried out for color guard and made the team, and she couldn't be more thrilled! Sorry Tara...still no pictures...LOL! We have been on vacation all week with limited Internet access, but I promise to do some catch up and get pictures from Chase's Bday party, Mother's day, and our vacation uploaded soon! Also I will update you all on our Foster parenting classes!

Chase is 14!

Chase turned 14 this past Friday, April 23rd. It's so unbelievable to make that statement! I remember the details of my pregnancy and her birth like it all happened yesterday. It definitely doesn't seem like she could be 14 years old! Tommy and I thank God everyday for Chase, she has brought so much joy to our life! And though I can't believe that Chase is 14 years old, I also can't imagine my life without her! She has grown into an incredible young woman, she is so kind and compassionate, she really has such a sweet spirit about her! Chase has always been very mature for her age, she has wisdom far beyond her years! I am so grateful to be her Mom!

We have gone to Jump2it (a jump zone) in Peachtree City with our grandkids several times, and one time while we were there I noticed that they did Teen Parties, so I looked into it and asked Chase how she would like to have her birthday party there and at first she thought I was crazy, but the more she thought about it the more she saw the possibility for an AWESOME birthday party!!

Chase was able to invite 25 friends to her party, OK...keep in mind this is a place with every kind of blow up slide, jump, obstacle course thing you could possibly think of all in this huge space!! So we have 25 (actually 23 out of 25 invited showed up) so we had 23 teenagers in this huge room with all these huge blow up slides and blow up balls and they had a disco ball with all the lights turned out with Chase's music blasting thru the place!! Sounds crazy right?? It was the BEST party we have ever had!! The kids ran around and played for like an hour and a half while Tommy, my brother, Robert, his girlfriend, Nancy, and I sat at a table in the peace and quiet and talked!! The staff at Jump2it handled EVERYTHING!! Then we spent an hour in the "party room" where they even cut the cake and served it...not too mention they cleaned up the mess!! Then Chase got to sit in a huge blow up "throne" to open her presents and the staff handled all that as well...writing down who gave Chase what...Now if they just wrote the thank you notes!! LOL!

Chase had a great birthday, everyone had loads of fun, and it was a stress free party for Tommy and I!! This was the BEST BIRTHDAY ever!!

Our oldest grandson, Billy had his birthday party @ Jump2it the next day! He was so cute...His dad (Chase's brother) had already told him that Chase was only having teenagers at her party, so when we went out to eat with them for Chase's birthday before the party...Billy told Chase that her party was just for Teens, but his party was rated "E" for everyone!! Billy turned 5 on April 22nd...He is too funny! He's so much like his daddy was at age 5!

Dear Chase, I hope you will always know how much your daddy and I love you, we are so thankful to be your parents, you are exactly the little girl that daddy and I prayed for! And we thank God everyday for the honor and privilege to be your parents!

We love you Chase with all our hearts ~ Mom & Daddy

Resurrection Day!

We have had a wonderful Easter weekend! I was unable to attend our Easter celebration at the church on Saturday, but from what I hear it was a great time for everyone!! And it was a huge success in more ways than one! We had a great turn out of people for all the events we had going on as well as one young man, who approached our Student Pastor and wanted to know more about Jesus! Adam was able to present the gospel to him and he trusted Christ as his Lord and Savior!! And if that wasn't enough cause for celebration...We had a wonderful Communion Sunrise service on Sunday followed by breakfast and some great fellowship...We all went to Sunday school and came back together for our regular morning worship!! The presence of the Lord was really felt at LBC this morning! Thank you Lord for a Pastor (my hubby) who is senstive to the leading of the Holy Spirit! As Tommy was preparing for his first Easter service as a Pastor, he was lead to preach a more gospel presentation and because Tommy allowed the Holy Spirit to lead him as a result one man came forward during the invitation and trusted Christ as his Savior and Lord! So 2 new believers this weekend! Praise the Lord!! Now that is the way to celebrate Easter!! We also know of at least one other person the Holy Spirit is dealing with and we are praying that He will continue to draw him and that Tommy will have an opportunity to talk with him!! God is so good!!

Here a few of my favorite pictures of us from this wonderful Easter morning!

Happy Resurrection Day!! From the Worthey's

Hannah and Kaleb

This past week we were able to spend some quality time with our son Matthew and his wife Sarah's kids! They were both going to be out of town, and Sarah had asked me about coming to Wilmington and spending the week there to watch the kids! And of course I jumped at the chance to spend some time with the grandkids, however when I found out that Hannah was on Spring Break I decided to bring the kids home with me, so that they could spend sometime with the rest of the family as well! So I flew to Wilmington on Tuesday the 23rd, spent a great day hanging out with Sarah and the kids, then Thursday morning we took Sarah to the airport to catch her flight and the kids and I headed out on our road trip to Georgia...The kids were so good, between stopping to eat and potty breaks it took us alittle over 8 hours, but they were so good and it was a fun time! We tried to pack as much in as we could because I was going to have to drive them back home the next Thursday, April 1st! The first day we mostly hung out at the house all trying to rest up from the road trip, then over the weekend the kids went to Sarah's family over night so that they could see them while they were in GA as well! We picked the kids up on Sunday afternoon, and went to church...the kids were putting on a puppet show that evening and I thought Hannah and Kaleb would enjoy that! Hannah did, but Kaleb was soon running around the sanctuary, so we decided to head out to the playground! They played good and hard and went straight to bed after church!
Monday we had some errands to do, but the kiddos were so good we treated them to Burger King and about an hour on the playset there! After we picked Chase up from school and then tryouts...it was time for dinner, bath, and bed!! Tuesday was a big day...since the kids were so good tagging along on my errands I took them to the Newnan Utilities Park...it's the big park in Newnan with every kind of swinging and climbing outside play stuff you can think of!! We spent about 2 hours out there and the kids had a blast!! Needless to say they were going to bed every night with no arguments and they were both sleeping late!! :) Tuesday evening we had a little birthday celebration for Hannah, she turned 7 years old on Saturday, April 3rd and since she wouldn't be here that day...we celebrated with her while we could!! Granddaddy went and got an ice cream cake and balloons while we were at the park...and Aunt Chase distracted Hannah while we decorated!! Wednesday was also a special day...Especially for me (Unfortunately for Tommy, he had a terrible toothache and wasn't able to go with us) First we met up with Hester, Jacob, Kinley, and Elyn at Chick fila for lunch, then we headed to an outdoor park in Peachtree City for about an hour or so, then we met Brian, Gerie, and Billy at Jump2it for some fun with all the Worthey cousins!! :) It was so much fun to see all the grandkids playing together, not to mention this was the first time that we had all six of them together since Elyn was born!!

Here's a slideshow of our week with Hannah and Kaleb...Thanks Matthew and Sarah for letting us spend this time with them!!

Make video montages at www.OneTrueMedia.com

Just alittle side note...when we got home on Thursday night

...Kaleb wanted Mimi!!

Not Daddy, not Mommy...only Mimi!! LOL!!

Yes...I was loving every minute of that while it lasted!! :)

Foster Care

Many of you may know that Tommy and I were foster parents here in GA from 1999-2002! We loved being foster parents and got such a blessing from the over 25 children that were in and out of our home during the 3 years that we were with DFACS as foster parents! Tommy and I both felt this was a ministry that we did as a family, even when Chase was still so young, she knew that we were taking care of those children because for whatever reason their parents couldn't and that sense of obligation to those children has stayed with her! So as a family we have decided to jump back into foster care! Tommy and I will start the IMPACT classes on April 6th...We attend 2 classes per week, every Tuesday and Thursday thru April 22nd...We will also have much paperwork to fill out and physicals to take as well as home studies done! Please pray for us as we go thru this process! We are not wealthy by any means, but we are rich in love and family and we fill this will be an extension of our ministry at the church. We will love these little ones if only for a little while and my prayer is that if it's only for a week, or a month, or God willing more...that they will know they were part of a family and they are loved!
These verses have always spoke to me and they are the driving force behind why I feel so passionate that we be involved in the foster care program!

Matthew 25:35-40(New American Standard Bible)

35'For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in;

36naked, and you clothed Me; I was sick, and you visited Me; I was in prison, and you came to Me.'

37"Then the righteous will answer Him, 'Lord, when did we see You hungry, and feed You, or thirsty, and give You something to drink?

38'And when did we see You a stranger, and invite You in, or naked, and clothe You?

39'When did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?'

40"The King will answer and say to them, 'Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me.'

He's Too Sexy for His Suit!!

I have been wanting to get Tommy at least one new suit since he graduated from Southeastern, but there always seemed to be things he wanted or needed more! Our friend and Pastor in Wake Forest, Jamie Dew suggested that I get Tommy a suit from Jos. A. Banks. This is where he buys his suits and has been very happy with them and as our Wake Forest friends can attest to Jamie is a very sharp dresser!! So obviously I took his advice and this past Christmas Chase and I gave Tommy a gift card to Jos. A. Banks! It just so happened they were having a great deal on suits, but my hubby wanted to wait and lose some weight before he got any new suits, so we waited...Then for his birthday the church gave him a love offering, so he decided since he had this money and the gift cards and since he hadn't lost any weight, the next sale they had he was going to get a suit! We finally went and he got 2 suits, 2 very nice dress shirts, suspenders, and a new tie! He is too sexy!!

Here he is today in one of his new suits!! Thanks Jamie for your suggestion!

Tommy almost looks as nice as you in the pulpit now!! LOL!

By the way...It's hard to tell in these pics, but this is a Brown "Window pane" Executive suit, and he has on his blue Travelers shirt with his suspenders! The Tie is not his new one he is saving the new one for Easter!!

Aunt Chase and "Aunt" Mary meet Elyn Grace

We went to Cumming this past Friday to visit with Nathan, Hester, and the grandkids! Since Chase was in school when Elyn Grace was born this was her first time to meet her!! Elyn was 1 week old on Friday...Chase and Mary both fell in love with Elyn Grace at first sight! We had a great visit playing with Jacob and Kinley and loving on Elyn, when we could get her away from Aunt Chase and Mary!!

High School Registration!

Today is a bittersweet day for me! Chase is so excited, she has been counting down the days for high school registration... Teachers from Newnan High School will be coming to her middle school today to talk to them about the different classes they will be taking as well as what to expect from high school life! Then tonight Tommy and I join her at a special parent's night and we will get her teacher recommendations and then we make decision as to what classes will be best for Chase in her Freshman year of high school! I just can't believe my baby girl is going to be in high school!! In just a short few months she will be walking the halls at the same high school I attended! I am so proud of Chase and all she has accomplished thus far in her school career, she is a very smart girl and she puts much effort into the work she does and I couldn't be more proud of her!! It just seems like yesterday we were bringing her home from the hospital in her pretty pink bonnet!! They grow up so fast!!

Please pray for Chase that she will remain the wonderful young lady she is today!! Pray that she will continue to put God first in her life and that she will continue to be a bold witness for Him! :) And pray for Tommy and I that we will be able to handle our baby going to high school!! LOL!

Chase's Poems and Musical Instrument Project

We went to Expo night at Chase's school this past Tuesday night February 23rd. It was a night that all the parents could come in at their own pace and see different things the students have been doing academically as well as hearing the chorus and band both perform! Tommy and I were going to obviously support Chase and to hear her sing in the chorus! But we came away with alot more than just a chorus concert! As we talked with each of Chase's teachers they bragged on what a great student Chase is and how dedicated she is to her work, not that this came as a big surprise to us, but it is so nice to hear! (As a side note...We were at jump2it celebrating Jacob's birthday over winter break and ran into a teacher of Chase's from last school year and he made a point to come up to me and Tommy and tell us that he thinks Chase is amazing and that we have a great kid! I was so overwhelmed...I mean I know I have a great kid, but it's so nice when other people see that in your child as well!) Anyway, 2 special projects we got to see at Expo night was Chase's poem book from Literature class and her musical instrument from Science class...I was really blown away by Chase's poems...I had no idea that she could write as well as she does! Her poems were amazing! So I wanted to share them with you as well as her teachers comments about each poem...I hope you enjoy them as much as I did! :)

Unforgettable Memories

by: Chase Worthey

Moving away, such a sad day

I missed my house, my friends, my family

It was so different, I was like a lost child in the night

Honestly I was depressed, but I held my head high!

My parents said they felt the same, but they wouldn't understand my pain.

I was sad there, but after I would think about it, I mean REALLY think about it

I was being selfish, and I wasn't acting myself. Now that I'm back home, where I belong, I look back on my memories and smile at the fun times and I forget the bad memories.

Yellow Flowers

by: Chase Worthey

...is born in it's own unique way, glowing throughout the world

...makes me feel so warm and happy and joyous

...gets mad when the clouds try to cover it's brightness

...looks like a great ball of fire

...is my friend because it is nice and playful

...smells like a warm vanilla candle lit all day

...behaves like an untamed dog, jumping around everywhere

...knows that it can be uplifting and happy

...tastes like vanilla, peppermint, or cotton candy

...is happy when the sun shines down on it

...lives on in peoples' lives when joyous moments occur

...sounds like the great ocean waves crashing on the shore

...is sad when people are cruel and full of hate

...dies when people's spirits are down

(Teachers comments - 98% excellent - your words in this poem are wonderful!)

Happiness

by: Chase Worthey

Happiness is a good friend

Someone you can count on

Through thick and thin

Friends make you laugh

When you are feeling blue

They help you make decisions

When you don't know what to do

Happiness is a small child

Hugging your neck

Happiness is lying in the sun

Out on the deck

Getting a tan from the big, bright sun

Listening to the birds sing

Like they're having such fun

Happiness is summer

When school is all through

Sleeping late in the morning

Then going to the pool

Going out of town

Is so much fun

It gives me a chance to see everyone

Happiness is music

I love to dance and sing

Expressing myself

What joy it brings

I wish that everyone

Could feel the happiness I feel

Because it is so real

(Teacher comments - 100% excellent)

Chase's teacher also made a comment on the entire poem book it read-

Chase- You truly have the gift of words. I could not sit and try to pick the poem I liked the best because you did a good job on all your poems! I love how you personlized your poems with pictures.

Super Work!! - Mrs. Archibald

As I mentioned Chase also did a homemade musical instrument project for Science...Chase choose to make Bottle pipes! Here are a few pictures of that project!

Just in case you can't tell the two brown bottles are Root Beer bottles and the middle bottle is a Sobe Energy drink...Just for clarification!! LOL!

We are very proud of Chase and all the effort she puts into her school work!!
