Well HELLO!!!
Sorry it's been so long since I posted. I am really running behind. We are good n busy with the kids n school. The last couple weeks have been pretty nice so I told the kids to the Zoo. They had fun. That's where those pictures came from. In March CJ turned 6 and is doing excellent in school now. I turned 28, yea another yr. lol. Looking forward to Summer arriving as well as Pow Wow season. Serina loves to dance in the Pow Wow's. She is doing good in 4th grade and can't wait to get her last yr in for elementary school. Time sure flies. Matthews 2 n a half and keeps me busy BUT he really loves the wii. lol. Well I should go. Just wanted to quick update. I will TRY to get back on again soon!

Take Care!

Holidays.. a little late again!

Hello All,
How is everyone? How was your holidays? Hope everything n everyone is well. So.. I am late as usual. I can't keep up these days. Well Thanksgiving is the picture with me n the kids. We take one every yr. Craig is NEVER in it due to him being gone hunting. Our Thanksgiving was great. I had my family over and made a dinner. It was alot of fun and VERY eventful. Thanksgiving morning my niece from my littlest brother was born, Hope Marie. Then the next morning my nephew was born from my other brother, Gage Warren. So yea babies everywhere! A very blessed Thanksgiving in my family!

Christmas, Christmas was great as usual. The kids had a great time. I usually put on a dinner for Craig's family the weekend before Christmas so most of his immediate family attended. We eat, exchanged gifts and played a game called POKENO. Lots of fun. Then Christmas eve I made snacks and had my family over and we exchanged gifts. Again lots of fun. Then we went to Craig's uncle's house and had a dinner and some gifts. THEN on Christmas day SANTA ARRIVED!!! The kids got to open their gifts as you can see above! They loved their gifts and made the cutest faces. It was great. I love being a mommy. That afternoon I made a meal and my family came over again. THEN Christmas was DONE!

So with those holidays done we look forward to another great year in 2011! On Monday Serina had surgery to get her tonsils n Adenoids out! She stayed very strong and did well. She is still recovering and doing well. Glad to have that outta the way. I think I was more nervous then she was. It went well tho. The boys are doing well. CJ is loving school and doing VERY well at it! I am so happy for him. He is really turning into quite a lil man. Matthew is getting big and he is also so smart. He really amazes me also. So proud n thankful for my babies.

Well have a great rest of your 2010, May 2011
Be all you hope n wish for! All the best,
Liz

IT'S ALMOST THANKSGIVING!!!

Hello All,
WOW!!! It's already the middle of November! I missed the whole month of October... Oops! So here are some pics from the pumpkin patch and Halloween! Serina was a Gothic Princess and CJ was Batman. Matthew was suppose to be a skeleton BUT he wouldn't wear his costume. People still gave him candy tho. lol So those Holidays went well. Now we are preparing for Serina's 10th Birthday which is Friday. I can't believe my first born baby is gonna be 10 already! WOW... Where does the time go. I find myself saying I guess the saying is true. Time flies when your having fun! lol. Her big Birthday gift from us is a cell phone. I know that will make her happy. She has to see a ENT dr on Thursday to see when and if they are gonna take out her tonsils due to them being VERY large. So we will see. I also had Parent Teacher Conferences last night and both Serina and CJ are doing VERY well in school. Thats always a great thing to hear.Well I should go. I hope everyone has a great holiday season just in case I don't update before then! lol

Take Care!

The year is FLYIN!!!

HELLO ALL!
WOW.. I can't seem to keep up these days. I sure hope everyone is good. I will give you a quick update to how things are here...

The 2010/2011 school year started here on September 1. So it's official Serina is now a 4th grader n CJ a Kindergartner! Matthew is now the only 1 at home with mom all day now. Amazing to think how fast time changes things...

In 4 days it will be Matthew's 2nd Birthday! I can't believe it! Seems like only yesterday my lil baby was born. He makes me so proud n happy. Such a wonderful lil boy he is!

Last week I got my tubes tied so there will be NO more babies for us. Matthew will be spoiled rotten because of that, lol. It's for the best for our family. Hunting starts Saturday so Craig is excited. So he will be busy between work n Bow hunting.. Then come November comes the gun hunt.. even more excitement. I think I get so excited because this is how I know the holidays are about to be here! YAY!

Well have a great week all!
Take Care n Be safe!

Almost August... really???

HELLO!

Wow I can't believe how much I have been slacking on this blog. So sorry!!! Things are going well and well fast! LOL. Summer break from school is a lil over half done and well it seems to have went faster then I thought. In a lil over a month Serina will be a 4th grader and CJ in Kindergarten! Where does the time go. Matthew will be 2 in like a month n a half!!! This Monday will be Craig n I's 11 yr anniversary! So it's safe to say we have been VERY busy. Before we know it the holidays will be upon us... wow! lil over 3 months til Thanksgiving!!! I think I am in shock! Well I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Take Care!

Wow.. Been a while...

Hello all!!!
How is everyone? Hope all is well. So sorry it's been so long since I wrote but things are ALWAYS super busy around this time of the year! So some updates...

Serina is doing well and is about 20 days away from completing 3rd grade!!! She did a awesome job this year. Her grades are in the top of her class so I am very proud of her!!! Also this year she was in soccer and she is very well at that also. She loves being goalie or defender... I don't blame her when shes good at it! LOL.

CJ is also doing well. He is ready to start Kindergarten in the fall. So he's excited and well I am and yet nervous. I got this way when Serina started out too.. I know he will do well. He loves playin with other kids and well he has surprised me with how well he is behaved when need be. Way to go to my big man. He really loves running and playin sports so we will put him on some sports team next yr too!

Matthew is growing more n more everyday! WOW is all I can say. That kid amazes me like no other. He is sooo smart. He can say 2-3 word sentences and knows his body parts. He can almost dress himself all the way. His next mile stone will be bottle breaking and potty training.. I am sure he will do well. It took so much to bring him into this world safely and all I can say he is truly a miracle n I would do it all over again if I had to, he's so worth it all. He is what makes me see how precious life is and not to take it for granted ever!!!

So thats about all... Oh wait other then EVERYONE I know at this time is pregnant and well Craig n I will be Aunt n Uncles again a few times this yr. Currently all our brothers are expecting babies Along with about 13 people that are other family members and friends!!! His brother is June and both my brother's are Dec. What a exciting yr this yr will be with so many new babies arriving!!!

Have a great week everyone!
Take Care
