Yes. I am still here!

I am still here. I know it has been so long since I updated anything and so much has changed.
I now have a 1st grader and one in 5 day a week Pre-K. Yes I do spend a lot of time in the car. Our life being crazy is a huge understatement. Zach is working on his masters and I am deep in nursing school (3 more semesters) and with the boys school and extra activities, it is amazing I am not on medication. HA! We still manage to have a great time with our family and would not change a bit of it! I will post again soon, when I need to push studying off again. ;)

Happy Mother's Day!

I received a card from Eli that he made in school, it was too precious! He wrote me a sweet message that said:

Dear Mommy,
You are the best mom in the world!
You are very sweet! Happy Mother's Day!
Love, Eli

How sweet is that?! Love that boy! On the other side of the card they answered questions about mommy:

1.How old is your mother?
"I think she is about 26 or something" ( I wish;))
2.What is her favorite food?
"Regular cake" (funny because I really don't like cake)
3.What is her favorite color?
"blue"
4.What is her favorite restaurant?
"I think Wendy's" (more like his favorite)
5.What color are your mother's eyes?
"green"
6. What kind of work does your mother do?
"actually she cooks for us"
7. What is she afraid of?
"rats, snakes, and lions"
8.If she had $100, what would she buy?
"she might buy a flower"
9.What would she like to have more than anything in the whole world?
"Her family!" (aww)
10. What is the best thing about your mother?
"she likes to play Mario and Donkey Kong! (haha)

I just love this! I love my Eli, and of course all my boys!

No Power!

We are so blessed that we were really not affected with this weeks storms! All we are dealing with is the no power issue. We decided yesterday that the kids(Isaac) had reached his limit, so we packed up and fled to my grandmothers house in Memphis. Isaac is getting over a horrific ear infection and we had kept his antibiotic cold as long as we could and he was just miserable.
Can I just say how much I appreciate electricity! I had no idea how much I vacuum on a daily basis until I can't clean up all the crumbs my kids make. You cant sweep rugs very well:)
I hope everyone is safe and doing well!

"All for Love"

I just love this song by "Hillsong." They are in my opinion, the best praise and worship out there!:) It is a song I love to have playing while I do my quiet time. It is so often my personal prayer. Look it up on Pandora or Grooveshark to listen. You will be blessed if you have never heard it.

"All for Love"

All for love a Father gave
For only love could make a way
All for love the heavens cried
For love was crucified

Oh how many times have I broken Your heart
But still You forgive
If only I ask
And how many times have You heard me pray
Draw near to me

Everything I need is You
My beginning, my forever
Everything I need is You

Let me sing all for love
I will join the angel song
Ever holy is the Lord
King of Glory
King of all

Oh how many times have I broken Your heart
But still You forgive
If only I ask
And how many times have You heard me pray
Draw near to me

Everything I need is You
My beginning, my forever
Everything I need is You (x2)

All for a love a Saviour prayed
Abba Father have Your way
Though they know not what they do
Let the Cross draw man to You

Everything I need is You
My beginning, my forever
Everything I need is You (x2)

Merry Christmas!!!!!

Here is Eli and Micah sledding on the WHITE Christmas morning! Oh P.S. These pics are really out of order but I am obviously dumb because I cant figure out how to change them around:)
This is Isaac Christmas morning... He was not to sure what to think about everything, he just sat there for a while looking around.
Getting a little more into the presents!
This is a pic of Eli bring Isaac in from his room to look at his presents!( again out of order)
I just thought these next few were so cute of the boys playing in the snow. Cute Micah!
Yummy snow!

Handsome boy! He looks 25 in this picture to me!:(
Just enjoying all of their new stuff!
Sweet brothers!
This is from Christmas Eve at my parents and Isaac and his cousin Toby( the 2 babies) kept sneaking food and candy off of the table, so this is Isaac eating a haystack candy! I think he enjoyed it!


Opening some presents!
Eli and Isaac! Eli loves his baby!
By this time we had changed all the kids into their Christmas pj's and were attempting to get a picture of very tired children.
Again out of order, but this is Zach reading the Christmas story before we sang happy birthday to Jesus and opened presents.


This was earlier during the day Christmas eve, but I thought it was sweet Eli was reading Micah a Christmas book!

I hope everyone had a great Christmas!
