Father's Day at our house

I am blessed to have a great man for my husband! He has shown the virtues of a true leader to his children since they were very young! I love this man I proudly & jokingly call my "babies Daddy" I am so greatful to a wonderful Father God that allowed our paths to cross the way they did! Since we will be taking a road trip to California/Las Vegas this week, we promised we would hold off purchasing any expensive gifts prior to the trip. So I created this picture for him and had each of the kids sign the mat around the photo. Thought I would share this image with you! Some pics are from when the kids were young but most are the last few years.

Hope your Father's Day was great for the Dads in your lives!

Tomorrow I take my oldest daughter to her college to finish up some paper work for the fall. Also, she will be interviewing for a job for while she is in college. Wow how time flies! Here she is with her older brothers listening to a story! Just think in a few more years she will be teaching kids this age to read!




I love her even though in these last few years we have had our "words". You know those times when you as a teenager don't agree with your mother on anything! LOL She is a great girl but we have butted heads a few times! She will be a great Teacher, wife & Mother one day! I can't wait to see this flower in my life bloom to its fullest!

Welcome once again

I have had this blog for awhile, yet have done nothing on it for over a year! I was in full swing with my blog writing for awhile and BOOM! blogger lost my page completely! So I went through and started a new blog site.........then within two days of blogging BOOM! again and blogger lost my sight again so needless to say I stopped blogging........now the summer is here and I have some free time to create my blog again..........I can't wait I have done alot of crafts and we are planning a trip to Vegas to visit family and California. Three of the kids and I are driving and the DH and our eldest along with his g/f are flying out later! I will have a laptop with us to blog some on the trip hopefully! well hope some of my old readers are still out there and havent totally given up on me!

will post more later with some pictures from Michel's Prom & graduation!
