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 ...

Joyful Mother wasn't very Joyful....

A short little post to let you know I AM OK!!  I know the last post was rather hopeless than hopeful.   I am doing much better and I do feel like there has been a bit of a breakthrough in my attitude.  I have been letting every little thing on this journey bother me so very much.  It doesn't matter what it wass....it was bothering me.  I was even snappy to my mother-in-law the other day and it wasn't very pretty or Christ Like at all!!  :(    I am so very thankful my mom-in-law loves me unconditionally and embraces me even when I am ugly.  Seriously!  I was letting everything bother me!!  I had been making myself out to be a burden or a "visitor" rather than a daughter.  I wasn't allowing myself to be accepted rather I was making myself out to be a burden.  A burden that no one had put on me.  I did this to myself by listening to the enemy's lies.  After a good talk with my mom-in-law and with the Lord, ...

Turn that TV off!!

Finding time to blog has been a little tough lately.  I don't know why.  Maybe it's because I feel I don't have anything good to share but then again that would be totally out of character for me because I am one of those women who can talk your ear off for hours and share with you my life story.  Truly!  So.....not having anything to say is just a big excuse.....ok so maybe it is finding the time.  As of late, I've been really, really striving to do the best I can in being a good steward over my time, children, and homemaking.  My heart's desire is to have an orderly home, orderly children, and a peaceful atmosphere. There are those days where I dream of being in a place where life is a bit simple....where I don't have modern technology like computers, tv, game systems trying to grab the attention of my children.  I don't know why this is so easy to "default" to when a "break" is needed or when I need some "alone time" or j...
