Where does the time go....

I am playing catch up!
I been wanting to type every other day but you know how the story goes..
life happens!!


So I will take you back a few weeks sharing with you all...
Galen's 6th birthday!
boy where does the time go


Galen at about 5 months
Look at those eyes...


Here he is now!
Dunkin Donuts was his place of choice for a birthday breakfast
Chocolate frosted donut all the way!!


Picking out his coffee (no...not really)

my kinda guy...ha ha!


Ephraim wanted to come along for the treat too


Later...it was off to the mooo-vies at the summer free movie fest
Kole was so scared of this cow that he ran and hid in a theatre
I couldn't find him...I even had the ushers helping. 


At home for chocolate cake!


I'm so embarrassed about this cake..
you only get to see a small portion of the mess I made.

I attempted to make a double layer cake which I frosted way to early
It was ONE BIG MESS!

And if you are wondering about the recipe....this is Ms. Betty's recipe
aka Betty Crocker, (buy one/get one)


It was still yummy....Galen didn't mind
look at that smile
:)


I didn't have pictures of this, but after DD's we went to Walmart and bought him some of his favorite toys. 


Then the following day his Mema took him out for more toys and spoiled him happy!
What are Mema's for... right?




I am hoping to come back in a few days and post about my 
15th Wedding Anniversary


Here's a sneak peek...

I bet you're curious as to what this was all about....ha ha!

What a great catch up and I love mess up cakes.
Though they tend to look the wierdest, they usually taste the best!

So glad little kids don't really care what their cakes look like; mine are never as beautiful as they appear in the recipe/magazine!
Just found you through Soulemama, wanted to pop over and say hi!

What Makes us Better Mothers? How do we View others?

What makes us better mothers? Do you homeschool or send your kids to school? Do you cloth diaper, use disposables or both? Do you breastfeed, bottle feed or both? Do you home birth, hospital birth or done both? Do you natural birth, use epidurals, or done both? Do you cook with whole foods or open up a box of Kraft Mac and Cheese? Do you home church or are a member of mega church? Do you wear a head covering, long skirts or have short hair and wear trendy clothes? Do you do attachment parenting or let your babies cry to sleep? Do you have 2 children or 20? Do you use birth control or not? Do you live on your own land/farm or do you live in a small apartment? Do you work or stay home with the kids? Do you immunize or never dare to inject your child? I am going to be very transparent and open with you all. I don't know if it's just hormones but what I have swimming in my heart and mind lately needs to come out. So this is the case for my posting this side of me. I know we can ...

My heart is sad...

Last night a local family in our small town lost 5 of their children to a house fire.  This was just down the road from where we are currently living.  My heart totally aches for this family.  I don't know much about them other than what I have heard from the new reports.  I am assuming she was a single mother because there was no mention of a father in the home.  I think it said she was staying with her mother (the children's grandmother) and her younger sister (the children's aunt--a 21 yr. old) My husband was driving home from work late last night when he saw police cars speeding by.  All he could do was pray not knowing there was a family being lost to a fire that very moment.   We didn't find out what happened until this morning.  From what I read was that they think the space heater caused the fire.  The home was an older wood-framed house probably without central heating.  The mothe...

A Very Quick Update on the Move

Hey All... Here's a quick update on what's been going on since my last post.  Well....we are moved in for the most part.  I still need to go back to the old house and clean, clean, clean.   Lots of cleaning... I wish I had the pictures to show you how much of a mess we all made while living there for 4 years.   Those pictures will have to wait for another post. I was also thinkin'... Boy how much STUFF do 10 people need.   I don't see myself as a clutter-bug...pack rat... I am always ridding my house of stuff.... Actually, to much stuff makes me hyper-ventilate.  I've been having a bit of moving anxiety lately.   I get these waves of panic.  Thank God they don't last long.   Oh...and please don't worry about me... I am not depressed or having panic attacks.  :) but you can pray though I think it's a mixture of the normal moving blues mixed with hormones of an almost 40 year old.   Gosh... c...
