MoMoRiAl WeEkEnD

We have have misplaced my camera, I put it in one of those places : I will put this here so that I can find it later : places, I am sure you know what I am talking about. We had a great weekend up at the Cabin, except for the fact that I rained most of the time. We were cooking shoes by the fire pit trying to keep some dry ones around. Shae and Ian got new bikes and we took them up there so they could break them in a little...trust me they were MUDDY... They had a great time playing with friends and making smores. They are ready to go again:)

Well I have accepted a job on day shift full time starting next week. I am so scared, if my life isn't crazy now it is going to get extremely crazy. . I haven't worked full time in 4 years (since before I had the twins.) It kinda came with bad timing because the kids are only out of school 1 week before I begin working full time..and I thought we were going to have a fun and playful summer. On the other hand I don't know how I would do it if the kids were not out of school, so maybe it came at a perfect time. I think this will give me a great opportunity and a change of pace which I am looking forward to. Thanks to great grandparents and Brady's cousin Aubrey we are going to work through all of the babysitting kinks as they appear.

JaDeN's MaRrIeD

I know it's been awhile, however if you notice I did this last year too, I started my blog in May, did really well for a month and then fell off the face of the earth for a few months, Spring comes and my computer gets neglected!

Things have been great though, Brady's youngest brother Jaden got married, they had a wounderful wedding, and Shae and Kayla were the flower girls.

We had a great mothers day I bought both of our mom's flowers so I think that I have spend plenty of money on flowers. Last weekend we decided it would be a good time to get our garden planted, we didn't have alot of garden room, just enough for about 4 tomato plants. We had this great idea to make it bigger and add more dirt, so our little project turned in to a full days worth of work. It will be well worth it in the end:)

We are just finishing up the rest of the school year and I am soo glad that it is almost over. I am ready to have the kids home for the summer. I am saying that now and about a week after school gets our and the kids start taunting eachother I am sure I will change my mind about that.

The girls had their final dance recital, they did great and Shae even performed her dance. We had lots of family come to watch, thank you for your support!


MaKayla had her final school program "Poetry Throughout the Year" She did a really good job and new her part...if only she would slow down enough to breath so that we could understand her! MaKayla's teacher helps they do a full body trace and the kids have to draw what they look like then at the end of the program the parents have to guess which picture is theirs. The only hint I had was that they had to draw whatever they were wearing that day. Luckily I know what her cloths look like!

Braxton is doing great he is getting ready to turn 9 next month and advancing in scouts. He has worked really hard this year to complete all of his requirements plus a few electives.

And Ian yeah he is still climbing trees and anything else that looks a little adventurous.

Brady's work has slowed down alot, they have the majority of their workers laid off, hopefully not for long we are praying they pull through on a few more jobs too keep work steady. Softball season has started and we are looking farward to having fun.

Brady and I scheduled our cruise next year to the Bahama's to celebrade out 10th annivarsary. Wow 10 years!

I am still working 2 days a week (keeps me sain) and chasing kids. Hopefully well get lots of swimming in this summer at grandma's house, let me know if you want to come we'd love to get together!
