A whole lot of Everything

Hello bloging world...I know I have majorly abandoned you here lately but my life has been a bit hetic here lately. So todays blog is gonna be a messy blog...you know a whole lot of everything (randomness) thrown into  one post...lol

Well to start on the 8th my lovely husband sent me out on a much needed girls day with my momma. We went shoping found tons of great deals, got our hair cut and colored, and had lunch out. It was a much appreciated day. I had a gret day with my momma and I love my hair although the bangs are takeing some getting use to.

(my new dew)

Valentines Day was a Great day. I got to sleep in even got breakfast made for me from my 3 guys. I got a beautiful Heart watch , and the hubby took me and the boys out to the Golden Corral for diner. Since we had our boys it was the safest place to eat that we could get by with them being nosiey while we ate...lol Isn't it funny how once we have children we change were we eat, shop, etc...lol Oh well it wasn't my first choice of places but we had a great time anyway. The hubby ended our night in bathing the boys for me and putting them to bed. He rented us some movies and we cuddled up on the couch with a warm fleece and a bowl of popcorn and had mommy and daddy time. It was a wonderful day. Thanks for everything babe I love ya!

( ♥ day gift...from my babe)

I went to the dentist on the 18th. I had my very first experience ever of haveing my teeth pulled by a dentist. Growing up as a kid I was one of the lucky kids with perfect teeth and no cavities! So I never had to have any work on my teeth other than a cleaning twice a year, I do admit I wore a clear retainer for a year to help pull together my front teeth., so I guess my teeth weren't exactly perfect.

Of cousre I was petrified, very nervous, and somewaht curius as to how bad this was gonna hurt. Needless to say I was ready to have it over with.

But...I sucked it up and did it. I had 2 wisdoms pulled out, and it wasn't that bad.

Leading up to the day of course my wimpy husband (I say that with alot of LOVE) lol told me it hurts gosh awlful and is the most horrible pain he has ever experienced...obvisouly he is a weekling...lol "love u babe" *wink wink*

Thank gosh it is over with until the next two come out in a few weeks...lol

On top of all these fun days, great gifts, and family time we also started painting the house. When I say house I mean every room in the house. We are almost done, I will post pics of the redo soon. The Hubby finally convinced me to let him buy bunk beds for our boys and I caved. It's a good cave, it opened up there room so much and they love them, again I will get pics up of them soon.

Plus we have been moveing my grandparents to there new house. Which has been fun in our 3 ft of snow...ok maybe not 3 ft but it sure has felt like it...lol We are all looking forward to spring, Warm weather, playing outside and of course Our boys are ready for the Easter bunny.

Well I think thats all I got today, until next time...

Blahhhhhh.....lol

So once again alot of randomness...lol

We have had a great week. Lots of family time.

I don't know if anyone else has ever done this or does this but we do...lol

Last Friday the hubby went out and rented a ton of different movies for our family movie night that we always do at least once a week. Anyway as I was popping the pop corn the hubby went and pulled our matress out of our room for a liveing room camp out...and our boys love it. Actually we all love it so much that a week later and guess where the matress is...still in the liveing room...lol

Oh well right, if they enjoy it thats whats important. So our liveing room has now become our sleeping head quarters...lol And honestly I love it. Our babies cuddle with us every night and it seems to be much needed family time.

so...my hubby FINALLY...I got us a Wii...lol

My hubby traded in his old X-box for a Wii for me and Our boys.

Although I'm not sure who loves it more me or Our boys.

We just finshed a very first Wii party tonight. My mom and dad came over. And we played Just Dance. in which any ladies who are wanting to shead a few pounds or just get a little more in shape. I would defintly recommend this game. GREAT WORKOUT!!!

We all had a Great time though and the boys literally played til they passed out on our mattress still resideing in the liveing room...lol My fingers literally hurt from playing Super Mario Brothers Wii. It was so much fin though. I got my dad our favorite old school ninetendo game Adventure Island, and sadly to say we never made it past the 2nd level. But it was alot of good laughs. My niece came over and cheered us on...lol

Ok well good night all...I am super tired and have alot to do tomararow. I did get all my paint colors picked out and hope to start painting our home very soon.

I am to tired to post pics, but  I will soon. And I hope to have some exciteing things to talk about soon.

Hope everyone has a GREAT weekend...and for all the Ohioains maybe we wont get that much snow...fingers crossed!!!

Total Randomness

Nothing to exciteing has been going on...although I did get alot acomplished these past few weeks. Everyone in my house has all went and seen the Dentist. Our boys have no cavitities and me and the hubby r haveing all 4 wisdoms pulled real soon. Aren't we both just so lucky, NOT ...lol.

The boys have gotten there checkups. In which Braden is now 3 ft. tall and 42 lbs. and Bryson was 32 inchs tall and 32 lbs. They are doing good and are right at where they are supposed to be. Bryson still has a few shots to get taken care of, which will be taken care of sometime this week, and Braden should be good until a month before he starts Kindergarden.

I finally found an eye doctor to take the boys, and have to get that appointment scheduled one day this week. Thank goodness for tax money, lol it has given us a chance to catch some much needed appointments up.

now onto other things...

Yesterday evening we went to my Aunts for a Welcome Home Party for my cousin. I remember as a kid playing at her house with all my cousins and getting together with all the family, and how much fun it was. So yesterday was WONDERFUL watching my boys play with all there cousins and haveing fun, and watching Miss Maggie hang out with the older ones since she of course is to cool for the babies, as she says lol.

We all had a GREAT time, ate way to much, laughed more than I have in weeks, and enjoyed being with my hubby and our babies surronded by all the ones who love us most!

Then today we all went over to my moms to see my little niece, Shayla. She is so adorable and tiny...she holds a special place in my heart. I just wish I got to see her more. :~) Holding her today made me think that maybe we aren't done yet, maybe we need to try one more time. I'd love to have our very own little girl, but if not another boy would be okay too. I don't know, right now isn't the right time to be thinking about babies but maybe soon...lol

Well that's all I got. My mom took lots of pics so as soon as I snatch here camera I'll post some so you all can see just how precious she is too...

So every week i've started doing a little Bible studying for myself and this upcomeing week is my study on Anger and learning to let things go. So here is my verse of the week for everyone.

Refrain from anger and turn from wrath; do not freit it leads only to the evil (Ps. 37:8)

Hope everyone has a good week! 8~D

a NEW YEAR...a NEW ME...and a NEW OUTLOOK!!!

I know I have majorly slacked off from blogging...and I do apoligze. Alot has been going on and I really couldn't bring myself to write about any of it. Til the other day one of my very good friends...told me that I need to start writeing that I had a blog and to use it, she says that I need to express myself a little more and put my thoughts and things out there. So I am takeing her advice. i'm not guarnteeing that I will write daily or that I will even write regulary. All I am commiting to is that I will only write and talk about what I want to. And if any of my thoughts affend anyone I'm not going to apologize anymore for the way I feel.

so I got this email from someone a week or so ago and considering the circumstances in my life right now I found it very contradicting. Especially considering the person who sent this email to me is the one who continues to do this to me and my family.

If u know me u know what and who I'm talking about, but at the same time this email I know had to be a message from the good Lord above. Why he sent this message to this person who continues to try to bring distress to my family. I have no clue, but I'm not going to question him. I am only going to listen, for he has a purpose way beyond any of us.

this is the email...

One day a farmer's old mule fell into an empty well. The farmer was disappointed because it was a good mule, but he concluded that the mule couldn't be rescued, since the well was too narrow and too deep to retrieve the animal. He decided that neither the mule nor the well was worth saving, and his only option was to fill the well with dirt.　

[I know this sounds like a terrible way to put a mule out its misery. Remember, it's only an illustration.]

The farmer grabbed a shovel and began to fill the well with dirt, one shovel full at a time. It turns out that the animal wasn't as close to dead as the farmer had guessed. When he felt that first pile of dirt hit his back, he instinctively shook it off and trampled on it. Another pile landed on him and he shook it off and trampled it. This went on all afternoon: shake the dirt off, trample it, and step a little higher, shake the dirt off, trample it, and step a little higher. Finally, after a few hours of this, that mule had risen to a new height; he was able to step triumphantly out of the well.

"What's interesting is that the dirt that was meant to bury him actually saved his life."

So my opinion is that when we are down, we can always be sure that there will be ALWAYS be someone  trying to throw a little dirt on us. I am  now gonna be like that mule. I will shake whatever bad and ugly it is that life is giveing me and I WILL TRAMPLE it...and it WILL build me UP!!!

God is going to BRING ME and OUR little FAMILY UP and we will PREVAIL!!!

So my message to everyone this year is to look at the “dirt” life throws us from a different perspective.

I haven't reached the top yet but I am getting there...

ONE DAY AT A TIME

"You intended to harm me, but God intended it all for good." (Genesis 50:20)

HaPPy BirthDay to ME!!!

My Birthday was on the 20th...I had a GREAT DAY. I got lots of goodies. My mom got me this beautiful Fall decorations that look FABULOUS on my Kitchen Counter.

notice to 2 small pumpkin bowls, My hubby got me the matching Big Pumpkin dishes for Sweetest Day. I'll post pics of them later.

So remember when I said I found the perfect pair of boats I lied. When they finally came in I hated them and returned them and my hubby bought me 2 pair of Oxfords. One in brown & one in black, and I love them

I know they r beautiful...he bought them online at Sears for me for only $20 a piece. I know cheap right!!! I LOVE them they r very comfortable and they look GREAT on me...lol

Anyway my hubby came home from work early and brought me La Roses for lunch. I thought it was nice I didn't have to cook or anything. And later on that evening my 3 guys took me out to diner. They took me to this new place they discovered called Culvers.

I recommend it to everyone, it is a little burger family resturant. Reminds me of a Steak n Shake. They have Great Butterburgers, and yummy Custard Strawberry Shakes.

All in all it was a Great BIRTHDAY.

My guys really know how to make me HAPPY!

The True defention of Swetest Day

 What exactly is Sweetest Day? Well I have the answer to that..

The history of SWEETEST DAY dates back to 1922 when a man named Herbert Birch Kingston wanted to bring cheer to local orphans, elderly, homebound people and others, he felt may feel a little "forgotten" during other holidays. Kingston worked for a candy company in Cleveland, Ohio and started giving out candy to all the little "sweets" in the community. Following his initial efforts, local candy makers in Cleveland began to continue the tradition of giving and called it "The Sweetest Day of the Year" and distributed over 10,000 boxes of candy to over 26 Cleveland area charities their first year.

Over the years, Sweetest Day has become more of a romantic focused holiday to include more of the Valentines Day traditions of romantic dinners, greeting cards, ecards and of course chocolates and flowers. Some attribute this simply to the name of the holiday, while others feel it holds true to the original spirit of the holiday by making it the sweetest day of the year with candy. 

  

Who are your Sweet Hearts this Sweetest Day?

I LOVE YOU ERIC, BRADEN, & BRYSON!
