AND...I DID IT AGAIN. IVE BEEN MIA FROM THIS BLOG FOR OVER TWO MONTHS. I HAVE NEVER NEGLECTED THIS BLOG THAT LONG. I LOVE TO BLOG BUT HERE LATELY OUR LIFE HAS BEEN CRAZY BUSY. I STARTED TAKING CARE OF A ONE YEAR OLD DURING THE WEEK NOW SO HE TAKES UP THE LIL TIME I DID HAVE BUT I LOVE HIM AND HES WORTH IT. WE HAVE HAD HALLOWEEN AND THANKSGIVING SINCE IVE BEEN GONE! WE ALL DRESSED UP AS PIRATES THIS YEAR. YES EVEN GENE AND I! IT WAS FUN AND SO CUTE! WE DID A FALL FEST AT OUR CHURCH WHICH WAS A HUGE SUCCESS! GOD HAS REALLY BLESSED OUR CHURCH! THANKSGIVING WAS HERE AT OUR HOUSE AGAIN THIS YEAR FOR THE 5TH YEAR! WE LOVE TO HAVE OUR FAMILY OVER TO GIVE THANKS TO THE ONE ABOVE WHO MAKES IT ALL POSSIBLE! THANKSGIVING HAS TO BE MY FAVORITE HOLIDAY! THERE IS NO PRESSURE ...ITS JUST A RELAXING HOLIDAY AND A TIME TO REFLECT ON WHAT REALLY MATTERS IN LIFE! AND THIS YEAR, I REALLY GOT IN TOUCH WITH REALITY AND WITH GOD AND HE HAS SHOWN ME HOW VERY BLESSED I AM TO HAVE ALL THAT I DO AND HEALTHY BABIES AND A WONDERFUL SUPPORTING FAMILY. WE DON'T NEED TO KEEP WANTING MORE AND MORE. INSTEAD BE CONTENT WITH WHAT WE HAVE AND HELP OTHERS IN NEED. GOD REALLY OPENED MY EYES TO SHOW ME HOW MANY PEOPLE THERE ARE OUT THERE STRUGGLING, HURTING AND THAT NEED OUR HELP. I PRAYED FOR GOD TO SHOW ME HOW TO HELP SOME OF THESE IN NEED AND HE HAS OVERFLOWED MY LIFE! 2011 HAS BEEN ONE ROUGH YEAR FOR US AND IVE BEEN SAYING 2012 JUST HAS TO BE BETTER. WELL IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE. GOD NEVER PROMISED US AN EASY LIFE BUT HE DID PROMISE WHEN EVERYTHING ELSE FELL, HE WOULD BE THERE HOLDING US! SO THE TWO THINGS I WANT FOR MYSELF IN 2012 ARE, TO BE MORE CONTENT AND MORE GIVING AND WITH THAT EVERYTHING ELSE WILL BE THERE.
OK SO OUR ELVES, OLLIE AND MOLLIE, CAME BACK THIS YEAR. THEY HAVE BEEN DOING SO SILLY THINGS THIS WEEK. ONE MORNING WE OPENED THE REFRIGERATOR AND THEY HAD TURNED OUR MILK BLUE. CARTER SAID THEY PROBABLY MASHED A BLUEBERRY UP AND MIXED IT IN THERE. SMART KID! THAT'S PROBABLY EXACTLY WHAT THEY DID! THEY NEXT MORNING THEY WERE IN THE SINK TAKING A BUBBLE BATH IN MARSHMALLOWS. THEY THOUGHT THAT WAS THE FUNNIEST THING! WE WILL KEEP YOU POSTED ON THE OTHER SILLY THINGS THEY GET INTO!
WE HAVE THE HOUSE ALL DECORATED FOR CHRISTMAS! THE SHOPPING IS 95% DONE. STILL HAVE A LOT OF WRAPPING TO DO BUT THAT'S THE FUN PART AND I CAN GET THAT DONE IN A DAY. I WANT US TO RELAX AND ENJOY AS MUCH OF THE HOLIDAY SEASON AS POSSIBLE. WE LIKE RIDING AROUND EVERY NIGHT LOOKING AT LIGHTS WITH THE KIDS AND LISTENING TO OUR CHRISTMAS MUSIC. BAKING CHRISTMAS COOKIES AND MAKING CANDY IS ALWAYS A FUN TRADITION WE DO WITH MY MOM AND SISTER! THE KIDS BOTH HAVE APRONS SO THEY LOVE TO GET IN THE KITCHEN AND GET THEIR HANDS IN IT ALL TOO.
HERE ARE SOME PICTURES OF THE PAST COUPLE OF MONTHS! ENJOY AND I AM REALLY GOING TO TRY TO DO BETTER ON THIS BLOG!
