I am a 30 something wife and mom to 3 kids. All three kids were happily adopted and we live life minute to minute. I will be exploring kids, natural living, gluten free lifestyle, army life, homeschooling, and whatever else I feel like rambling about. Hopefully I will be of some help with those exploring those topics, or I will at least make you smile with some of our crazy days!!!!! Smile and Enjoy.
Beautiful angels!!
There look like they are up to something.....
So its snowed this morning..... Tyler was at guard drill today so we waited until he got home and while Cameron napped he played in the snow with the kids. They had so much fun, and with any luck this will be our last snow of the winter (crossing my fingers). The kids got cold very quickly but it was worth it!
This is my new couch we will soon have its actually used but new to us when we pick it up..... We put it on layaway so we would have some time to get rid of the wonderful blue couch we have had since we got married, I really loved this couch....sniffle.sniffle.. If Rach only lived closer she could have it she has always said if we get rid of it she calls it because its where she always sleeps..

Allanah chasing Cameron
Tyler and the kids.....
Tonight was Adam's first soccer practice for the spring season. He did really good and seemed to enjoy practice, it lasted about a hour. Allanah was sad because it was not her night to practice (it will be her first season) so she wore her soccer gear and kicked the ball around anyway on the side. Cameron ran, and ran, and ran some more!! I took a picture of Allanah chasing his around as she did for part of practice. I think they will both practice on Monday's for a while.

This has been such a busy weekend! Friday night Brenda and I had dinner for her birthday while Tyler and the kids ate dinner at his parents. Saturday I went to Good Sam and the Px with Cookie and had a good lunch at Subway. That evening we took the kids to play with the Collard kids in Waynesville and ate dinner at Pizza Hut with them. Today we went to church, had dinner at my Mom and Dad's and went to Awanna's tonight. Cameron came home and jumped on his horse and played forever. He would bounce up not holding on and laugh and laugh it was great! Make not of him jumping on it without holding on, he was being so brave.

Wow what a busy week and weekend... Thursday night we had my PAT Valentine's Day party and it was a lot of fun and fun decorating for it because I love pink and purple and hearts! Friday night my mother in law made us a really good dinner and we all watched a movie. Saturday we went out for lunch (just Tyler and I), and then that night went to the Valentine's Day program at church. The kids got to hit a pinata and had a blast then there was lots of good music. Then today church and lunch...

Cameron was playing with my hair rollers as I go ready this morning as he does many mornings. He would pick up a handful and drop one or two and get so mad and throw them all. He is not a morning person.....

So we went to Keith's birthday party today and the kids had a great time in the bounce house and just playing in general. I think Keith loves all his gifts and his cake was super cute. My kids came home tired so that just goes to show how much fun they had. Poor Cameron has a cough and has not felt good, or napped all day. I took lots of pictures!

So we went to St. Louis today to the zoo. Tyler was at guard drill and I had to pick up the new van so Brenda went with me and we decided to hit the Zoo and target (and McDonald's three times) while we were out.... I got so many pictures and they were good. The temp outside at the zoo was 71 degrees that's awesome for February! We did not even get lost thanks to our friend tom tom! Ok enjoy the pictures! First I will post the kids and do a new post with animals they limit my pic space....
