HELLO! Wow did I really not write in almost a yr? Wow time sure has gotten away from me! Well let's see what's all new. 1) Serina starts 6th grade/middle school next week! CJ is going into 2nd grade! 2) Almost Matthew's 4th Birthday!!! 3) I graduated and officially have a HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA at the age of 29, and no it's NOT a GED but a real high school diploma! I will be checking into a college on Thursday! 4) My husband and I recently celebrated our 13 yr Anniversary! Bow hunting is about to start so that will make him VERY happy! So yea that's a brief history! Everything's been okay here, just super busy! I can't believe Fall is almost here, my most favorite time of the yr!!! Well I suppose I need to get some sleep. I do hope everyone out there is doing well. Take Care!

On September 17, 2011 Matthew turned 3!!!

HELLO ALL!!!
How is everyone? Hope all is well. I can't believe todays the last of September. The year is flying by so fast. I can't believe Matthew's already three. He is really grown up fast. Hard to believe. He will always be the baby tho. So for his birthday we had to do 2 parties one the night before his birthday cause his birthday landed on opening day of bow hunting which Craig did well and got a big 10 pointer that day. =) Then we had his actual party on Saturday, his real birthday. He had fun.

The kids are doing well in 5th and 1rst grade. Serina is in choir again this yr as well as plays the cello. CJ is loving the challenges on Math n Reading in 1rst grade. Things are going well and now we get ready for the holidays to creep up on us. Well have a great weekend. I will try to post again soon!

Fishing time...

HELLO again!
2 days in a row I actually posted wow.. that's a new record for me this year on this blog. lol. Yea so the pictures you see are from our family fishing trip from this last Sunday. It was a great time. CJ won the most fish by catching 15 of em and he also won the first fish caught. Serina won the biggest fish. She caught 12 total and lil Matthew caught 5 too.. The kids had a blast. We like to make Sunday our "family day" thats the day I make a nice brunch and a nice dinner. So to do things as a family makes it even more special. With how busy things get with Craig and work and the kids and school you can loose yourself so it's nice to be all together for a day. I know come September hunting will start and Craig will be gone more. I sure hope it's a great season for him! Well I should go. Have a great night!

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!
