Oldest to youngest.

Dad and Zing or better known as Poochie to me.

 

Oliver and Mom trimming some trees.

 

A little closer look at Poochie.

 

Wow, these kids of ours have changed so much.  Dana will have three graduated in May, one has been married a year, and Dana's baby is in third grade.  As for me this will be the last year our kids will  all be in elementary together.  Time really does Fly! 

 

This was the last picture of our playhouse before we tore it down.  Funny how things you see, smell, or talk about, brings back such memories.  Boy, there has been a lot of things that have took place in all our lives since we played as kids in our playhouse and since this picture was taken. 

 

Although "Seasons" come and go in life, our memories will hopefully last! 

TIRED

 

Okay Logan is making me sleeping looking at him.  Have you ever been tired?  That could mean a few different things.  Like literally needing to rest your body, board, over worked, or tired of the same thing.  Funny how one word can mean a whole bunch of different things. 

 

We are plugging away at our day to day things.  Getting a little further ahead with school.  I'm counting down a couple more weeks and this semester will be over.  I have to say I am a little "TIRED" of MATH.  It's just not for me, but I'm so glad other's love it!

 

Kids are doing well, so excited for Christmas, and being able to be together.  I love that they like to be with us!!  It's fun to watch how much they change through a school year.  I love the things they say and how passionate they are about life.  They for sure teach me something new every single day.  So glad I get to be home with them.

 

I'm also thankful to the guy in the picture!  My life is so blessed to have him in it.  He lifts me up, gives me strength when I feel weak and inspires me to do better.  Thanks to him for filling in where I leave off.  He truly is the best!!  He works long days and still has time for each one of us when he comes home!!  I know he is "TIRED", but he carries on and I love him for it.  I'm so glad he is driven to accomplish great things!  He is amazing and I'm glad he is my best friend!  I love you Logan!!

"There is only one.."

 

I am one

 

 

 

I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something; and because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do something that I can do.

Halloween 20012

 

Halloween in first grade is awesome!

One day Libby and mom carved pumpkins with the rest of her class!

 

 

Libby's design!

 

 

I didn't even realized we matched.  Two great minds think alike : )

 

Libby's class and her teacher Mrs. Cornia.

 

This day they got to go show the other grades and high school their costumes. 

 

Halloween Night 

 

 

Maddi stuck in a graveyard!

 

Danny sucked someones blood!

 

We had to take poochie with us this year.  So glad we weren't in a snow storm this year.

 

 

Dad with Lorax, Orphan Annie and Dracula!

 

Life is pretty good, candy, dress up and family time!

 

After the night was over, I kinda felt like this guy...
