Easter























Easter Sunday was a fun filled day. We had a relaxing day. Then it all began. Devin's Family came over for coloring of eggs then we made dinner for everyone. Ham, potatoes, and so on. It was so much fun spending a special day with family and filling the kids heart with joy. In our home the Easter Bunny usually doesn't leave gifts just a few things of candy and sunday clothes but this year he was extra nice and left the kids a Teather Ball. Even the Adults enjoy a game or two. But after almost loosing to Taylor I hurt my pinky so that helped my cause. LOL. Sad when your kids beat you in a sport. But fun too see THEIR joy

I was so horrible, I totally forgot to blog about Calvin's 10Th birthday. Well it is a tradition in our Family that when the kids turn 10 we take them to Disneyland just him and one parent for the day. But this year Calvin chose Mom but since I knew that I couldn't handle driving alone all that way. SO I voted to take dad along with us which was a great idea since I get motion sickness and Dad and Calvin don't so we left on a Saturday morning about 1 am got too Disneyland and then spent all day at both parks and then stayed 6 hours in a hotel to sleep then off for another 6 hour drive. We had a good time but next time we will stay longer and have more fun not so rushed. LOL here is a few pics. enjoy Happy Birthday Calvin Frank Harris. Love you little man.

Disaperence

Well, I have basically disappeared from the blogging scene for a while.

A lot has happened since I last posted. Well, it has been almost 3 months since Devin lost his job. We decided to have him start going to school Full time instead of part time. And then soon after I found a full time job. Working from 6 am to 2:30 pm. It has been really hard for me too get the hang of it. I have been a stay at home mom for the past 12 years and now I am a working woman. I gotta tell you stay at home moms, you all take it for granted. I am totally included in that. It has got too be the most hardest job ever to stay home with kids all day long well 24/7 but, Now that I am working and away from my babies. I gotta tell you though little things that they did that drove me nuts I miss. I miss running the errands, cleaning my home, taxing my kids too and from. Making sure that every bill was paid and well basically everything that we do as moms. It is the MOST IMPORTANT job you could ever do and for those of you that have to work and send your kids to day care I feel for you and the pain that you go threw every day when dropping them off at the babysitter. I am so blessed that Devin is the full time Dad instead of daycare but, it still breaks my heart too know that I am not the one that wakes them up every morning and does all the things that they need to get threw the day.

I am so excited for Devin he is able to have the time to focus on his school work and now be able to graduate earlier than planned. Since he will be taking more classes now that he is home full time. That way he can get up everyday and enjoy going to work.

Thankfully it only took the boys a few days to adjust too the new routine. Even the older kids felt the need to help dad threw the new schedule. Even though they aren't even home during the day. LOL Calvin decided to remind Dad that he needs to take Daxton to school 3 days a week but the bus brings him home. LOL Like dad didn't know that.

Well, I am OK and knowing that it is only temporary change in mine and my kids life. I know that we will all be blessed to much in the future by this sacrifice that we are all making.
