love you

I just needed to give a shout out to my hubs....love you. Shane has been gone all week to San Antonio for a PA Conf. The last couple of times he has gone to a conf, the kids and I or just Shane and I have gone. We've missed him so much and can't wait to see him this afternoon. He's been gone since Sunday morning and I have to say that I've done pretty good by myself with the kids. The week has gone by pretty fast, however, we are ready for him to be home! Thanks honey for all you do for us. You are an awesome husband and father. Thanks for providing a beautiful home for us to live in and for making it possible that I get to stay home with the kids. Thanks for keeping us on track and always encouraging the best in all of us. Thanks for being a great example to our boys. Thanks for showering me with love and affection. Can't wait to see you today!!!

Hello Dorothy

(Just a couple of my crazy, cute boys. They didn't want to be left out of the picture action)
Just wanted to do a funny post about our goldfish-Dorothy. You may ask yourself "Isn't that the name of Elmo's goldfish??" yes. Yes it is. Connor thought of the name. We won Dorothy last June (yes, I did say last June) at Peyton's school carnival. In fact each of the boys won goldfish, unfortunately Peyton's goldfish died within a day or so as most goldfish do. Dorothy however is a bit crazy and is still going strong even after a new fishbowl, and being changed from hardwater to reverse osmosis water. She (we really don't know if it's a boy or girl, but since it has a girl name we refer to our fish as a she) is very crazy and swims really fast in her bowl every time you walk up to it. Pretty funny. Thanks Dorothy for being a good fish. Our kids love to feed her and get a kick out of having a pet. **warning the photo is a bit blurry because Dorothy won't hold still**
