Bloom where you are planted.

Lately I just hate our house. It's too small, it's too cluttered, it's too hot, it's too old! I want a new house BAD. We will be in our house for a while, we know it. We want to keep it as a rental and eventually (once we pay off our business loan) buy a newer home. Oh I can't wait.

But I do like our yard...it's not perfect, but it brings me happiness.

Oh Beautiful Day

Wii Love Our Daddy

Happy Father's Day Chad! Wii hope you enjoyed your day and your new Wii. Little did we know it would bring out the sassy in Alyssa. Hope that wii can all play nice as a family.

Chad you are a fantastic Dad, you are more than I ever expected you'd be as a Dad. I know your Dad and Mom would be so proud to see you taking such good care of our children. Our kids love you and so do I.

And you're a hottie too!

Great Time at the Great Wolf Lodge

Recommend it to anyone looking for a family get away. Only 1 hour away, provided a day and half of non stop fun. So much fun I didn't take one picture.

*Owen loved the toddler area with two toddler friendly waterslides. He screamed like a girl every time he came down, exclaiming "do it again mommy do it again".

*Alyssa decided that swimming with a lifevest was coolest thing. She'd take the pool and a lifevest over the crazy water slides. However she went down all but the Howling Torando (only because she was too short). She took lots of risks and realized it's fun trying new things.

*Chad enjoyed watching the ghetto water basketball game that took place in the pool Alyssa was swimming in.

* I enjoyed every minute with the family. They didn't even get on my nerves not once. The perfect family time lasted from Sunday at 1:00 until Monday at 4:00.

Now they are driving me nuts.

Ever so proud of his bodily functions

No I'm not taking about Owen! But I now know where Owen gets it. Would your husband bring you 5 Q-tips to show off how much ear wax he made in one day? Mine would!

Gotta love that man!
