Going Private

After many thoughts, I have decided to go back Private with our blog. I love that I have meet up with so many of my old friends again. But I want my children to be protected. I have seen to many things lately with blogging and I want to keep enjoying it. I have many on my list from before when I was private. But if you want to keep enjoying our blog let me no if you weren't on my list before. And I will send you a invite. I will be going private in the next two weeks.

Things I'm thankful for.

Thanksgiving week is a great time to be thankful for so many things. I'm so thankful for our children.







BrielleI'm thankful for Brielle, She is such a sweet heart. She has a great love for animals. She loves her daddy every day when he walks in from work she runs and give him a big hug and says daddy daddy.







Boston,

Boston, Is very very soft spoken, He is 6 and still loves to be my cuddle bug. Boston always has something funny to say. He is extremely smart but does not what anyone to know it. So much he will fail his spelling test on purpose just so you won't call him smart.



Bridger,



Bridger, He is our dare devil. He will try anything that his dad is doing. He is our artist and can make anything out of paper.





Baxter,

Bax is such a great kid. He is my biggest helper. He is very tender hearted and would help anyone out. He is always worried about me and tries to do things so I don;t have to.

Why our people so mean

I swear I don't know how people feel like they need to put others down just to make there self feel better.I was at a friends today and she was telling me that my so called friend was spreading around town that me and Jason were losing our house. She has told everyone. First of all ,if we were losing our house I would hope I would be the first to no. And because that not true why would you even talk about that or say that when it so not true. Sorry I'm just needing to vent a little. I feel like why do you kick someone when there already down. I just had that surgery that didn't go as well as I would of hoped and I'm still regaining my energy and strength from it. And Jason took two months off work so that he could help me. So money has been better at times. But why is any one business. I don't understand mean people. I'm sorry but would you be mad.

Yum Cookies

Brielle was so cute tonight. I was making Cookies and she pushed the flour bucket over and started helping. She stayed up there the whole time. I think she ate a ton of dough.
She has become such a cheesier. I love it because I love cooking anything that is sweet and I loved that she loved it too.

Between her and Boston I had a ton of help with a ton of mess. But we had fun.

Brielle

This is a picture of Brielle that I took with my cell phone on the way home from picking her up. So cute and so tiny a Meir 5 pounds.I can't believe how fast shes growing, She already 16 months.
I feel so blessed to have her in our lives. She is so sweet. There is not a day that goes by that somebody doesn't stop me and have to no everything about her. I can't believe the amount of people that start crying when I tell them about her. I do think that's really neat. It makes me realize just how special she is.

Yes she is very busy, know a days my new name for her is naughty, But how can you not help but love her.


She has become so smart, She says so many words.



And after 67 shoots today with the camera I finally got a smile.

1. I hate hate hate when people chew with there mouth open. I don't want to hear or see it. When my kids have friends over I make them spit there gum out as soon as they walk threw the door. If my kids our eating chips or anything that makes noise I make them go out side.



2.I won't let Brielle go anywhere unless she has a bow in her hair. I do think I need to ease up on this problem.



3.I still pick out all the boys clothes everyday, Yes Baxter is 10 but I feel like I need to do it and comb there hair.



4.I don't want to have anyone help me with my laundry, I'm to scared that they will not spray a stain, Or wash it right. So I wash everything fold everything and put it all away by my self. I'm getting a little better and finally letting the boys fold the towels.



5.I enjoy watching shows on Disney and nick just as much as other TV. I usually will stay up really late the nights Jason at work and watch corny shows all night.



6.I never leave my kids, I have a huge problem with this. I'm a worry wart. I think I can count on one hand the times I actually left Brielle.

Halloween house,Corn maze,Soccer, and some random pictures


We went over to the corn maze in moapa today, We been home all week sick with colds and it felt good to finally get out.

And Brielle and a coarse her no fear she wanted to take this spider with her.







We got there and there was no one to take our money, So we just went in, without a map. We got way lost and was in there for a few hours. Somewhere in the maze there was this guy come out of the corn scared us to death. But he was a worker and he helped us find our way out.

t


The boys were nervous because they new it got haunted at dark and was afraid it would get dark before we got out. We got out right in time for it to start pouring.




















Soccer started last Saturday and here is a few pictures. Baxter and Boston are both playing.












and just a few random pictures
















I straited brielle hair this day, You can't tell that much in the picture but her hair goes half way down her back.
