Inspired, yet again!!

So a great friend invited me to her blog which is wonderful!! She is such a sweet, creative and sassy lady. She has inspired me to to be a better mother, blogger, friend, just all around person. Thanks Kristine Watterson, you make life so much brighter!! I'll post pictures next time. :)

Halloween 2009

Red just before her second eye surgery.  It is so hard to watch them wheel her away and know they are going to be poking around in her eye.  She came through great and the Dr.'s said everything went really well.  So thankful for the power of prayer and the peace of mind it brings to know that prayers are heard by a loving Heavenly Father.

Brown as a jellyfish for Halloween.  I can't believe how quickly time flies.  It seems like just yesterday she was a brand new baby, took little for Halloween.

Red as Princess "Life is Too Tough."  She wasn't happy for some reason, maybe her glass slipper was too tight.

Blue was all about SpongeBob Squarepants this year.  I think his costume turned out great!!  He already knows what he wants to be next year. . . .Sonic the Hedgehog.  Any ideas on how to make that one? 

Yellow made it easy on me this year and went as a football player.  Thank heaven for good people that aloow me to borrow
their football gear!!  Thanks for being such a TEAM PLAYER!!

Life as we Know it

Wow. I looked at some of my friends blogs and they are sure on top of it. I was inspired to try to do better. For Halloween Green was Ozzy Osbourne, I went as Sharon, but never got a picture of myself!! Yellow was a football player, Blue was SpongBob Squarepants, Red was a princess and Brown was a Jellyfish. We went to GR for Halloween and had a fun time. Red had cataracts removed from both eyes the beginning of October. Above you'll find a picture of her before surgery. Everything went well and she is doing great!!

Updates

So, it has been forever since I have updated our blog. Green installed some new K9 security thing and I can't seem to get my pictures onto the blog. We have had a fun summer. We have been camping twice and 'training' as a family for the upcoming Wasatch Women 5K. I am the only one running, but I have quite the team here helping me prepare. I will try to get pictures up soon. Can't wait for the kiddies to go to school!!! Only one at home four days a week for two hours.

WAAAAM bulance

Our little ones where fighting so Green made them hug each other for 5 mins. They loved it as you can see. It was so funny. They cried and cried, but I had to laugh or I would have cried too. The fought all day!!
I am so happy that it is nice outside so that we can send the kiddies out. We are working on getting a fence put in as soon as we have the backyard leveled out and putting up the trampoline so they can spend even more time outside.

Making the house our HOME

Here is a picture of the girls' rooms. Brown's room is yellow with some stenciling. Red's room is pink with the stripes on just one wall. It seemed too busy to do all over the room. I hope I can get some 'after' pictures posted soon. That would mean their rooms are done for good.

It is ours!!!!

We finally own the new house. We closed on Wednesday the 25th. What a relief to know we can move all our stuff in without worrying about moving it back out again. I will get some pictures up of what we are doing. I am working on the girls' rooms right now. Browns room will be pale yellow and light blue and reds room will be pink, of coarse!!!
