It's HERE!!!!!!!!!!

Was outside with my hubby and two kiddos this morning cutting down a tree (yes cutting down a tree on our anniversary) and a glorious messenger arrived with gleaming gifts for me! Actually, the FedX guy came with three boxes for M's homeschooling adventure! WOW! That's all I can say!!! The products and books we received are beyond average!! I will have to take a picture of all the things and post them, once I figure out how to take pictures of my camera!!!!!! I feel like it's Christmas for ME! M is super excited as well!! He wanted to start today!! I'm ssssooooooooo excited to do this with him! I even planned activities for little A to do! It should be super fun!!!

Hope you had a glorious day! Thanks for stopping by!!

Happy Anniversary!!

Tomorrow August 18 will be my 9 year anniversary to the most awesome man I know! I love you Adam and hope that life continues to be amazing with you! Through thick and thin and ups and downs YOU are the one who is by my side! Never forget how awesome you are!!

I hope everyone had a great day today!! Thanks for stopping by!

Blech!!

My hubby took Friday and tomorrow off of work so we could spend time together as a family. But we missed church today! I thought that it was only this one time and we haven't missed in a long time so it wouldn't be a big deal. Well...it is!!!! I feel like I missed a dose of medicine that I need to survive! It's weird! The kids were even odd! M asked me why we were missing church and I couldn't tell him why! We were supposed to go camping but we didn't go on account of the rain. Blech!! That's how I feel!! Oh well! Hopefully the week goes fast!

Have a great day! Thanks for stopping by!!!!

Peace, Be Still

Today is one of those beautiful, calm, full of the Spirit days! I am content with things as they are. My little family is amazing! I love going to church and learning the things that we are supposed to learn. I am learning to take things in stride, realizing that the things that are small problems are just that, small problems. There is no point in letting things little grow big. Life is so short here. We need to start thinking eternally! The Lord has promised us eternal life with our families IF we live according to the plan He has in place. Live, learn about and love the Lord and all that was given up for us!

No I don't feel this way all of the time, but boy I wish I did!!! :)

Did you ever have one of these days or weeks? I sure hope everyone feels this way once in a while!! Have a great day!!

Twins update!

My brother and sister-in-law are pregnant with twins as I mentioned before. They are expecting identical twin girls! But there was a problem. They found out that the babies have twin to twin trasfusion syndrome. The one baby was very still and had nothing in its bladder. The other baby's bladder was engorged. They did a very delicate proceedure last Friday that seperated blood vessels so the babies had a better chance of making it. The surgery so far was successful! The babies look good and the doctor is optimistic!!! There is still a chance of something bad happening but so far so good!

Thanks for stopping by and have a nice week!!!

Yeah! School is coming!

We got M's laptop, printer, notebook, headset and a bunch of other little gadgets delivered to us yesterday and we are SSSOOOOOOOOOOO excited! It feels like we are really doing it now!! We are still anticipating books and supplies! The lady we had our meeting with told us NOT to buy any supplies until we received our box of supplies because they give you everything from paper and glitter to glue!! So excites! Grateful to live in a country where we are free to homeschool our children! Grateful to be able to worship freely! Hope it always stays that way!!


Have a great day!! Enjoy the weather and your families!!

Getting ready!!

Today I decided to start making a schedule for little A's tot school. I know that while I'm helping M with his school work that little A is going to need to be busy. So I decided to search the web and found some awesome sights that I got encouragement from!! I want little A to get a head start and learn as M does. He's a smart little boy and I want him to get ahead a little bit. I found worksheets and book ideas and calendar time ideas and I'm pleased with all of it!! So very excited!! I am becoming more and more comfortable with the decision we made to homeschool :) A mother I know is trying to search around for an affordable preschool and she is struggling! I don't have to worry about that! I'm so excited to be doing it at home! I'm grateful to the wonderful mom's out there who are willing to share their ideas with others! Amazing job!!

Some of the sites I looked at are :
