Easter

I love this picture because none of us are looking at the camera.
Who's gonna get the $20?

Brie's 1st Easter!

Yeah, for cousins!!! Look at all of those blessings.


Easter was fun but different. It was nice having Chris' family join our family this year. His parents and grandparents came down. After church, we had yummy food and the annual egg hunt for the kids, they REALLY enjoyed the slip n slide. And, Sue Hoff slipped a $20 in one of the eggs and Austin was the lucky boy. Not to mention the awesome weather!

Not to forget all of this is.... because of Jesus dying on the cross for our sins because he loved us so much so that we could have eternal life. A big concept isn't it? I'm so thankful!

My cousin Jenna Robinson along with her 3 kids and parents visited us from North Carolina.

Life Style Change


Sorry it's been a while since I've posted. My camera battery is dead and since things have been crazy around here to say the least, I haven't gotten around to charging it. Every time I turn I say "Man, I missed a great opportunity again for some great pictures." So, I don't have any pictures for you but a lot of good things have happened.
1. I got my car back, good-bye Chrysler Town and Country
2. Alexa's Princess Castle came in (pictures to follow)
3. My brother -in -law Bart and Austin (the oldest son) both got baptized last Sunday. That was HUGE, AMAZING AND VERY TOUCHING. I'm so proud of the decision they've both made.
4.My cousin, aunt and uncle came out from North Carolina and brought my cousins 3 kids. It was a blast to see them and meet her 2 kids that I hadn't met yet. It's been that long since I had seen her. We took the kids to Downtown Disney and showed them a great time.
5. I received a package at my door, I looked closely and it was a Macy's box. I opened it up and there was the COACH BAG that I posted on my blog earlier. My father and mother in law surprised me and sent me the bag. Can you believe it? I felt loved! Thanks guys for making me smile in style!
6. That same day I get another delivery, this time it was YELLOW TULIPS with a note attached that said " Sunday in church God told me to send you yellow flowers" Thank you to the Kelly Family for loving on me. You made me smile and gave me joy! God is great, isn't he? Showering me with LOVE!! It's good to have God on your side.
7. Brielyn is officially crawling and standing up on things by herself. CRAZY how fast this is going by. We had to lower the crib mattress and highten the bars.
8. Alexa is climbing out of her crib, SO...... we turned her crib into the toddler bed. THIS IS TOO MUCH FOR ME ALL IN ONE DAY. My kids are growing right in front of my eyes.
9. I've decided to have a life style change. I am going to the gym about 3 times a week. I am eating healthy and just making better choices. I am making myself eat breakfast since it's the most important meal of the day. I am also taking a Women's Multi Vitamin. I don't like to call it a diet since I am planning on doing this to keep myself healthy for years to come. As part of holding myself accountable and being aware, I write down everything I eat in a journal. I will allow myself cheat days once I feel mature enough in my life style change. For now, I have to be strict! :) I am loving the way I'm feeling already. 24 hour Fitness here I come.
Any other takers on a Life Style Change? I'd love to have support and be a support to others. We can have cheat days together!
