Little Miss Aliya Jade

Usually I do a post about our whole family, but this week our silly little girl is going to have the spotlight. Aliya loves to climb on everything , laughs and talks all the time and we realized recently that the shortest member of the family has been ruling the big boys. When Aliya cries the boys run, aliya talks …

St Patrick's Day

We did a lot of fun activities on St. Patrick's Day. We had green four leaf clover pancakes, hunted for "Gold" coins in our backyard, played pin the clover on the leprechaun and even made rainbow water artwork. It was a great time but our favorite part was playing in the beautiful "green" out…

a new day...

Well, we are not feeling great but the warm weather is helping to cheer us up. Yesterday, we played outside for awhile and got some fresh air and I am hoping to play outside some more today...the high is 76 today!

staying positive...

Okay...here is my list that I promised in my last post. Reasons why my bad week...wasn't that bad. A lot of good things happened I just had to sit down and think past the runny noses. 1.) A Tornado hit many homes in our town, but not ours. 2.) No power meant a night off from cooking. 3.) Nate was finally able t…

Nate was pulling out more cards for the kids to play with and you could tell he was in his glory. It was a wonderful st…

10 things you didn't (or maybe did) know about me

Okay, I am joining the Internet bandwagon and reveling my ten secrets. Unfortunately I was never a spy or had a secret life of crime...so my secrets really are not that big. Also, I am not near as funny or entertaining as my brother in law Robert, so if you read his secrets you are about to be very bored with mine! …

What I "Work" For.....

Last week I was sitting around having coffee with some friends. We were talking about jobs. One of my friends stated that she just couldn't stay home all the time with the kids. That she liked having the paycheck to give her the sense of accomplishment. That she needed to feel that she was "working for someth…
