Giving it another try

So I have not posted in a year. I read other people's blogs and just read through all the ones that I have posted over the last two years and realized how great it was to document my life. So I thought I would give it another try. I am not sure if people read these but this is more for me so I am going to have at it again.

Since I have not been on in so long, I wanted to post an up to date photo of my family.
So here we are on our summer vacation. I took this picture with the self timer on my camera. You only have 10 seconds before it takes the picture so I had already had the family in place I turned on the timer and got down there fast and while I was trying to bend down my phone fell out of my pocket into that lovely river you see being us. All turned out well, but it it funny what we will do in order to get a great picture!!!

It's been a while

Well It had been a very long while since my last blog. Almost 5 months to be exact. Not sure that anyone has really missed it but I decided it was time to post a new on. My son will be 6 on Wednesday. It makes me so sad but happy at the same time. He started kindergarten, the first few days were a bit rocky but now he is fine and he really enjoys school. We went to the fair a few weeks ago and here are some pictures.

This past Saturday we had my son's birthday party at Riverbend Farm. For thoses of you who live in charlotte NC this is the best farm by far to go to . We had the best time. There is so much to do there. We picked pumpkins and when we got home they wanted me to take their pictures with the pumpkins.

In memory of Kayleigh Anne Freeman

I have never met little Kayleigh but I have been following her story and have been so touched by it. Today her friends and family are letting pink balloons go in her honor and memory and I wanted me and my kids (Kyle and Kailey) to do the same. I can never imagine what her family is going through but their faith in God is so very strong that I know he will provide for them. As we were letting the balloons go I could just imagine little Kayleigh looking down and seeing the balloons and becoming very excited as chidren do when they see balloons. Right before we let the balloons go my son prayed for her:

Dear Lord,
Thank you for this day and watch over Kayleigh Amen

found it so sweet, he is only 5

Well I will continue to pray for the family and little Kayleigh and one day I will be able to meet this little angel.

Very Random and long

Well I haven't been on here in a very long time and after I talked to my friend
Avion tonight, who by the way informed me to write somthing new, I figured it
was time to post a new blog. So much has been going on in the past month.

I started my new job and I just love it. Kyle started playing T-ball,

Friday was his last day of T-K, Kailey is starting to say more words

( her favorite is NO and MINE).

Kyle playing t-ball

A few weeks ago Kailey decided that our walls needed a

little extra somthing so she thought it would be nice to draw

some nice scibbles on the door, the wall and the dogs kennel.

My husband was sooooooo mad but all I could do was

laugh and take pictures.

A few months ago my mom found my old baby doll hairchair, that I had

used for my babies when I was little and wanted to know if I wanted to fix it

up for Kailey. I was so excited. So tonight I finally got to fix it up.

Here is the before picture

And here is the after:

One more thing, as you all know we got a dog

back in January. She is now almost 5 months old.

She weights 40 lbs and she all puppy.

Easter, New Job

Well Easter was great. We went to church and my aunt came along with us. I was so glad to have her join us. It felt so good to go to church this year on Easter, in the past years we have gong to church on Easter because it was Easter but this year we went because we are involved and we love it. Of course the kiddos were all dressed in their Easter best.

I started my new job today. It was soooo overwhelming. I thought I was going to pull my hair out. Don't get me wrong, I am sooo grateful for this job and very excited, but it is hard to go to a new place after 7 years. There is so much to learn about the school and where things go where things don't go, all the paper work. I know it will all work out, I am going to be doing a lot of praying this next week. Have you ever felt that you were really good at something but when you go to a new place you find your not as good as you really thought. That's kinda how I felt today. the school I came from there were not that many teachers at this school there are a ton. The school goes from Pre-K to 22 years of age. It seems I am not as good as I had once thought. Some might just say it is all in my head. Well whether Iam good or not I know this is what I really love to do and what God put me on this earth for that and to be a mom, I love that even more.

A quick update on my dad. He is doing very well and may even get to come home tomorrow :)
