Well as I am sitting here in a really quiet house I thought I would take a minute to catch up. It is kinda nice (& strange) to be home in the middle of the day. Karly is having a nap in her own bed, the kids are out playing with friends and Shelby is sick in bed. Cory and Chad are still off to scout camp. I cant help but feel that the Lords had is in my life. He has made a way for me to stay home. I am still not sure how this will all play out in the end, but for now it is about enjoying the summer home with my kids. I need to say thank you to so many of you for your support this last week. It has been emotional and a little embarrassing. But so may of you have reached out to pull me up, and for that I THANK YOU....I am blessed to have so many good friends and I hope I wont lose touch with those who I have known through my job.

BIG GIRL!

Well Karly is still only a little interested in potty training but she has found her own way to use the potty... What ever works. For those who know my potty training stresses with Chase, I'm in now hurry to push. After 23 months of dealing with Chase is has finally figured it out...We hope it stays that way.

Last day of school

The thinks a girl will go through to be beautiful for the last day of school...

To bad we cant convince them that it is not worth trying to sleep in them I tried to tell her.

My amazing father in law

I have to give a shout out to my amazing father in law who spent his day putting in our new dishwasher that we bought last week. I know great timing to buy new appliances. But we bought it last week before things changed.

My silver lining...

Well if there has to be a silver lining to the changes in my life, its that My little kids can sleep has long as they want in the morning, and nap in there own bed.

Chase saw that the neighbor has a pic of her son moping (on her blog) and so now he is wanting to mop. Even better he is wanting to clean the toilet everyday. I think this is a good sign...

Time of Change...

Well today is the beginning of some BIG changes in our family. Do to my own mistakes I lost my job today. Well once I get past the emotions of losing my job. And then in the next are good emotions as to being able to stay home with my kids. So I am not sure what the future holds but for now I guess I will enjoy the summer with my kids, and try to keep the expenses at a minimum. Well happy summer everyone....

Church softball...

I love when its time for church softball. Not very often do we get my husband Cory out to play. But we did get him out for the last game.

I love that we can take the whole family and spend a few hours just watching games and visiting with friends.

How much better can you get than games that start with a prayer...

Great Neighbors!!!

I love that we have such great neighbors. So once in a while we will just plan a BBQ/potluck in someones front yard. Great food and better friends, what more could you need...


Jonathon & Samantha Allen live next door to us and we love having them there.
