Fourth of July

I know it is already August but I wanted to share these pics from th 4th. Tommy and I took the kids over to my sister Alicia's house and spent the day swimming & BBQ-ing. Later the sky started getting gray and the clouds started to roll in. We didn't get any rain, it just rolled around us...but there was a beautiful rainbow in the distance. Schnepf Farms puts on a firework show every year so we were able to get a great view from the fron yard. We had a great time as a family, but boy were we tired on the drive home. Thanks again Alicia!!

Annie and Gunner

I know it has been a while since I posted but I had to share some pics of my little sister and my nephew. Her friend Tara took these pics of the two of them...she is so used to being behind the camera. They turned out so good!!

Mom's Birthday Dinner

It was my mom's birthday a couple of weeks back....HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM! I was unable to go to the dinner because I had to work. I really missed being there, but these are some of the pics from that night. Aren't my mom and my sisters beautiful?!

X-Box Playoff

These are some of the pics from Monday's X-Box Playoff at my house. It lasted just about all day...but who am I to complain, it gave me scrapbook time!! And that is always a plus, lol.

My youngest dd is feeling much better now. She is still resting but she isn't throwing up anymore. I hope that she can go back to school tomorrow. That means I can get back to work as well. Have a great night!!

New Post

Well you could definitely say that I am a bad, bad blogger, lol. I have been so busy that the last thing I want to do is update my blog. Well I sat down today and did just that.

It was kind of nice to have a three day weekend. My hubby and the kids had a X-Box 360 marathon. Our neighbor boy even came over and plugged in his console, and they were playing against each other...2 tv's CRAZY!! They had a blast.

Well the weekend started off kinda yucky for my oldest, he had been sick up until yesterday. Then my youngest woke up this morning and was complaining of her head aching. Oh boy!! I gave her some Motrin and she was feeling better...that is until it wore off. So I gave her some more and she fell asleep behind me sitting on my chair. She woke up a bit later and threw up all over me and my freshly cleaned floor (did that this weekend as well). My poor baby is not feeling well to say the least.

On a good note, Saturday when my youngest kids were feeling good I decided to get them out of the house. So I rounded them up (along with my son's friend) and we went to Wuertz's Gourd Farm. The kids had a blast!! They had all kinds of animals, including miniature donkeys. They were so adorable, and two of them were very pregnant! The kids thought it was the coolest thing to feel the babies kicking inside their tummies.

B-day Party!

Last Saturday my family celebrated mine and my daughter Emmalee's birthday. It was a fun afternoon with fun, sun, presents and food! We had a blast!! Below are some pics from the party.

Wonderful Time

I hope that everyone had a great holiday! My family and I had a blast this Fourth of July. We swam for the majority of the day, ate and then went to a local field to watch the fireworks. I just thought I would share some pictures with all of you from the event. TFL!

Happy Saturday

My family and I started the day out early. We had my nephews birthday party at 10:30 this morning. It was a blast! We had it at my sisters house. With the pool, and the slide my mom brought, it was a fun filled day. My kids crashed out early tonight...too much fun, and not to mention the sun and the heat. My little nephew was so funny he kept saying Happy all day, because it was his Happy Birthday! I took a ton of pics that I will share below but first an announcement.

New Ct Call & Some Pics

Well things are going great with my niece and nephew. My kids have been a great help with them also. They follow them around everywhere wanting to be read to, or just wanting to play.

My oldest dd Emmalee has swimmers ear. We have been doing a little bit of swimming the past 3 days and she also just came back from Mexico with her Nana and Papa. She has just recently became comfortable with jumping and doing summersaults under the water. I know it contributed to this. It was so painful last night that I had to take her home from my son's baseball game because it brought her to tears. I felt so bad for her because I have a history of ear infections myself. She is doing a bit better but I am afraid we might have to go to the doctor if I can't find a remedy.

Here are a couple of pictures that I have taken of Emmalee. I just can't believe how fast kids grow, lol.
