"I've got a pocket full of sunshine!"

So, this past Wed. my brother and sister-in-law came over to bless us with a meal and also a slide show of their honeymoon pictures to London, England and all over Scotland! It was such a surprise when I walked in the door to this:
Just warmed my heart to know that they thought of us in such a sweet week! For those who don't know, we will be driving to CA this coming Mon. So, I greatly appreciated this! They also made a WONDERFUL table setting!My brother grilling (first time of the year!!) some delicious chicken! =)

My other brother just chatting!

And of course, I have to add that I got some new shoes! I rather like them.....but it reminds some people of Fat Albert! =}

Our lovely view from the back.....


My dad and brother, having their "man" time!

Today has been a full day of cleaning house, and getting it ready for our house sitters! aka: James and Jill After that I made some sweet iced tea (the ONLY kind) and gave some to my helpers who cleaned up the kitchen from lunch! =)


I pray y'all have been incredibly blessed this week and also will continue to be blessed! It's been a hectic week for us getting this ready and working on food (so we don't have to eat junk food), packing, and so many other things! So, maybe I can get just one more post up before heading to CA...or maybe I'll post when we get to our first stop, Colorado! =)

Y'all come back now, ya hear?!?!?

“This Is The Life...”

Hey y’all! Yes, it’s been quite a long time since I’ve posted on here! Lots of living life, raising not one but TWO kids! Four years of marriage, learning how to handle my own household, loads and LOADS of laundry and dishes! Life is good and I’m ever grateful that the Lord has given me so many days to learn and draw closer to Him! This year I’ve felt like I’ve drawn closer to God. It’s amazing what He does to shake up our lives in order to do so! Anyhow, like I said! I have not one child but two precious little ones! Oswin Katarina is such an amazing, most imaginative and spunky three year old! Life with her is NEVER dull! Winston Taylor is my giant boy full of energy, but ever so snugly one and a half year old! These two keep me on my toes but I wouldn’t ask for better kids! They’re ever so polite! If you sneeze they’ll say bless you then you’re welcome after you say thank you! But make sure you say thank you or they’ll remind you to do so! They say please when they ask for thi...

Hey y’all!! My fellow friends who enjoy a peek into our life! :-) These weeks seem to be flying by and it’s hard to remember what has happened and when because it’s like a flash! One day it’s here....the next day GONE! About a week ago we got to celebrate a little firefly turning one!! It’s amazing to watch my nieces and nephews grow up and even more awesome to see them grow up side by side with my babies! Like I said, time is just zooming by! My nieces party was so fun and filled with such happy memories!! And she’s such a doll anyhow! Well, our weeks have been filled to the brim with decluttering our house, cleaning the house, raising our kids, bible readings, documentaries, and just all around craziness!! I tried to take the kids out to the zoo for it’s free day but the humidity was SO BAD Oswin was begging to go home within 5 minutes of being there! I’m praying we’re able to take them out to the Saint Louis zoo very soon!! I’m positive they’d LOVE it!! Plus,...

Hey yall!! So about a week ago I got the most wonderful news (yet again!! Never gets old) that I became an aunt again!! My Wonder Woman of a sister-in-law brought my sweet little niece into this world after a long 39 hr labor. Definitely Wonder Woman if you ask me! :-) This past Wednesday we got the privilege of meeting the little thing in pink!! Anyhow! Without further ado....below are some pictures from that night!! Hope y’all enjoy! This past Sunday we got an even greater privilege of witnessing our niece get baptized into the kingdom of Christ!! Made me tear up a little!! Remembering the promises we made when we did the same and promising to come together as a body of Christ to be there for her too!  Well, I hope y’all enjoyed the pictures!!! They seriously don’t do enough justice!! She’s just the sweetest and cutest doll baby!! Anyhow, I’ll close now as I think up another blog post of my family’s life!! Y’all come back now, ya hear?!? :-)
