Summer time Fun!













So J.C apparently loves frogs and has captured many that I have made him release unpleasing to him. But he decided to introduce his sister Ashelyn to them and she loved them as well. Devlyn and J.C love the slip n slide but seem to have even more fun in Ashelyn's baby pool on our back porch!! Who knew...
We like to train them early in the art of computer science!


With summer time fun also comes summer time boredom for those of the Middle School tween age groups I am finding out. Its harder to keep them busy and occupied at this age, but its also important to keep them busy because when they are bored is when they either destroy the house, come close to killing each other or get into mischief that isn't always a good thing. So the boys found their Dad's shaving cream and went with it! Pretty funny except they scared Ashelyn so bad she didn't want to talk to them for a few days! Life is ever changing and never dull with two tween boys that are only 9 months apart!

New Home!!!




Well its been a while since I have been able to post on the blog and I have missed it!! We are finally moved in to our new home and J.C is finally here with us. Its been crazy around here that is for sure. We have moved way too many times during our marriage and let me just say that while I may be a professional at moving now I still dread it with every being of my body!!!!

My sister in law Wendy came up with the kids to visit us from Atlanta. We all went to an amusement/water park near us call Carowinds. They had a blast! It was really nice having some of my side of the family here for a visit. We are here in North Carolina with very limited family and NONE from my side, so its always a treat to see my relatives. My niece Amanda stayed to spend the summer with us and its has been such a help having her here. She is wonderful with Ashelyn and is actually the only one that hasn't been grounded yet this summer! LOL

Devlyn has a birthday coming up on July 30th, he will be 12, and that is starting to make me feel old!! J.C will be 13 in October 13th and Ashelyn will be 2 on October 2nd.....are we done with the baby making or is there room for one or two more???? Honestly, it depends on the day you ask me.....lol

Jeremy was home for a week and a half and it was really awesome, but he left this morning for Indianapolis and wont be home until Monday, and the kids and I miss him already. Here are some pics of our new home.
