25 Things
1.I am a Christian. Just saying that makes me realize how far I've come from just believing to now living and teaching the kids. Thank you Lord for the faith and strength day to day!
2.I love being a wife to J. Yes we fight, but we're still in love, and we find ways to show eachother that. Even if the store had no flowers!
3.I love being a mother. Everytime I look around the dinner table at our 4 kids, I am amazed at how much I have been blessed.
4.I am crazy. Just ask my niece Kierra and nephew Darren.
5.I was show-and-tell for my niece. And I loved it. Grade 1 kids are SO cute!
6.I don't hate all the in-law family like people think you should. I love them! And we get along...mostly!
7.There are times when I wished I lived closer to my family.
8.I LOVE camping. Even with newborns! I can't wait to camp!
9.I like shoveling the driveway. The high, neat banks look so nice! I've been letting go a little and letting the kids play in the nice snowbanks. *sigh*
10.I have a hard time keeping up with my house work. My favorite quote to motivate me is " it is possible to dissobey God by NOT doing the dishes!"
11. I love reading, have always read, but i can't spell!!!
12.I love singing. I sing in the van really loud when no one is in with me. Oh, and I sing really loud in the van with the kids too!
13.I wish I was skinny.And could shop at a 'normal' store, not a plus sized one.
14.I love to laugh. and hate that you can't see my eyes when I laugh.
15.I'm not sure if I am happy, excited, or sad that my kids are starting school in September.
16.I have a temper and sometimes can control it.
17.I am very sentimental.
18.I want to be loved, needed, helpful, a friend, hugged, accepted.
19.I do care what others think of me. And actually that surprises me.
20. I love my husband. No ifs ands or buts! 21.I am just like my mother. So much it's scary. It took me a LONG time to admit that.
22. I hate worrying about things. Especially money.
23. I don't like it when people are mad at me.
24. I own 3 or 4 pairs of heels. I'm still not sure how people wear them and walk at the same time!
25. I am still learning how to be the best person I was created to be.

Mamma Mia!!!!
4 kids + payday shopping + Friday afternoon + 1 me = A great shopping experiance!
(well the great is overrated as it was at Houston supervalue...) but none the less, it included a trip to the bank, checking the mail, grocery shopping and then (just cause the kids were SO GREAT) dinner at A&W. All done with 4 kids 4 and under, one mom and no spankings!! Wow! I do amaze myself!
Just had to brag...and pat me on the back!
IT CAN BE DONE!
now to figure out how to get them to put the groceries away with out digging into the snacks! :)

Terrace on Thursday to Friday....Wonderful company, good shopping and great food! I had a blast and it was great to get 'away' for a night! And the kids were WONDERFUL for Jason....they all slept in until 10am....I wonder how much he drugged them! Hee hee!
Before we left! (Lovely Pic..thanks Jakob!:P)
On the road
The yummy chips and salsa we had before dinner. If you are in Terrace you have to look up Don Diagos(not sure how that's spelled)
They have amazing food and great service. It's a little cozy resturant close to Best western hotel. GREAT!! Check it out and enjoy!
So after that great trip,(THANKS Rob and Truus) we had a birthday dinner at the Hudson for Elaine and Brenda....Good times!
Some of the Entrees and the Appetizers that were ordered
Brian buggin' Elaine....Typical!
Bread sticks and a great husband.....:)
Explanation needed???? Nope!
We had a great time even if the babysitters didn't! :P It's great to get out without having to worry about the kids needing to be fed, keeping them quiet etc.! FUN!
And it being Wednesday, I dreaded posting today....but after all this good eating and fun 3 lbs were gained back....so this week is gonna be hard core! But less eating out and sitting around will help! Thanks all for the encouragement!
PS! I still need all your mailing addresses! Y'all gonna get something then....but not if I don't know where to send it. The email address to send it to is in a previous post.......And the song list will be posted soon....hee hee, hard? not for my kids! LOL! Have a wonderful day!
