Starting to look like a real home...





So we have grass now...how cool is that??? The fence that you see is our side lot/yard & eventually will have an inground swimming pool. That is a few years away when all of kiddos swim like fish. We hope to close soon. (May or June timeframe) I will send out the new mailing address when we get settled.



Dentist Appt


AJ & Avery's first dentist appt was today & went really well. AJ went back all by himself & did not even need me. I have to admit that left me with mixed emotions. Then , Avery came along & would not budge without me.....It is good to know that I am still needed! :)

Hair-Cuts!








It is that time again when the girls hair is just too long & they want to change it up some! We found this place called shakey's cuts for kids & it was a total blast for the girls.

My Mother-in-Law....


My mother-in-law passed away 2 weeks ago tomorrow. I felt that if I wrote it down somewhere it would be real & I really did not want it to be real. I hear millions of stories of horrid mother-in-laws & i have to say that I do not understand them. Mine totally ROCKED! She was there when you needed her.

When we were stationed in OHIO, I talked with her on a daily if not every other day basis. I could tell her anything, I mean anything. She was a military wife & totally got the all of the BS that comes with it.

We breezed thru the Celebration of Life service & as long as I stayed busy, I could do it. My Billy had to get up & say a few things about mom & my heart went out to him. I can not imagine the greif that he feels. She was my mom for 10 years & I miss her so much.

My children miss their grandmother too. Leah (6) left a not on Billy's pillow this morning that reads" I know that you miss your mom. I miss her to. I know that she loves me & you. Love Leah." Leah drew a picture of a cake on a table at the bottom of the note & also drew music notes & labeled them "irsh music". She knew that here gmom loved irish music.

There are so many things that remind me of her: lasgna, gnomes, blue eyes, shamrocks, st. Patricks Day, sudoku, (she is the one who got me hooked!), Snowbabies,THOMAS KINKADE. I think she had everything he ever made. She was a great lady who was there for anyone who ever needed her.She will be greatly missed! Love you MOM!
