Wedding Bliss

OK...so I still have photos to show of our trip...but I thought I would take a break and post a few pics of the wedding we were able to attend.  It was such a sweet wedding and the bride was a beauty.  We are friends of the groom and his family is precious to us.  The girls were so excited...my sweet girl just wanted to see the 'princess bride' and the big girl was waiting for the 'marriage kiss'. 

The kids were all dressed up and what a sight they were.  The bride a groom looked amazing as well as all their friends and family.  We are so blessed to have people like this in our lives...my kids even call the parents Aunt T and Uncle T...and they love their 3 kiddos (well...not really 'kids anymore).

Because they looked so precious...I thought I would share a few photos...enjoy.

Home Sweet Home

Thank Goodness we are home!  Can I say...I love my bed, I love my floor, I love my couch, I love my tv, I love running water and modern plumbing, and I love love love my potty!  Take a look at the wonder place the hubby fixed up for us.  (no kidding aside...it was actually VERY comfy)

My home for the week.


My kitchen and dining room for the week.


My couch...OUCH!



I didn't attempt taking a picture of the 'bathroom' we used...and I use the word bathroom with sarcasm!  Showers were only $5 a pop...and big girl had to pay as well.  So $15 every other day to smell good for a few hours...so worth it.

Look how much fun the kids had:


SMORES!


and more SMORES!


Chilly, happy mornings.


Calm and peaceful.




Telling funny stories.


Relaxing!


Loving on cousins.


More loving!

Ok...and the last day the girls picked me some lovely flowers!


Enough for now...but I will keep you updated!  School starts soon!

Inspired

Well...in case you didn't know...I was trying to wait a year before I posted again.  I thought it was a bit creepy that my last post was on September 11...but what can I say...I have been inspired.

We recently had a death in the family...my grandmother...and I guess as you age you forget things.  Even memories that you have had for years seem to fade...and as they Peeta would way...REAL?

For those of you who do not know who Peeta is...go read a BOOK!

OK...so as I was saying we recently had to attend a funeral where I saw relatives that I could not even recognize...amazing how we change.  On the other hand...some had agesd but there was no doubting who they were.  I was fine through the whole thing...until my cousin read something that he wrote.  All the memories flooded back.  And it may have been the last time I will see some of those realtives...it was incredible to hear some of their journeys to where they are now...mine included.

So, I was inspired.  I want to share my family, my thoughts, and my journeys with my friends and family...after all that is why I started the blog in the first place.  And yes, I realize only a few of you even bother to look...it is my goal to spread the word that I will be back on!

So what's been going on?  Well...where do I start?  Still busy as ever...with a NEW full-time job.  So excited about that. All 3 kiddos will be in school...5th, 2nd, and Kinder!  Can you believe it...me either...I am getting old.

Graduating Pre-K

Leaving behind Primary School...on to 2nd grade

And finishing 4th on to 5th


Look who played t-ball this year...he even hit a home run!


And Soccer




Yes...she's still playing

And she's staying pretty...but we convinced her to try soccer camp!

So I will say bye for now...
