We celebrated Tanks 10th Birthday!

He enjoyed a shopping trip with Grandma to Toys-R-Us...

Afterwards we celebrated at the Olive Garden, he was so embarrassed when they sang to him...

Great ending to March for us!

Her 12th Birthday....

Was a huge Success!!

Abigail's day was filled with Fun and Friends!

Even though her actual Birthday is not until Christmas Eve We celebrated early so that we could have her school friends visit before everyone goes on vacation for the Holidays. 

Tanks 9th Birthday

Our boy celebrated his 9th birthday!

He sure is growing up and changing into a sweet,thoughtful young man.

I shared more pics of his Birthday on my facebook page, he had a nice party which included a bounce house and friends.

My 34th Birthday Dinner Table

We have been so busy this Summer with Parks and Crystal's Riding Lessons.

Here we are waiting at the park while Crystal rides.

This week was my Birthday and I turned 34! My MIL came over and cooked a very delish Shrimp dinner and we enjoyed some Sweets!

As a present to me a ordered a couple of items from the Bath&Body Works Sale that is going on right now and I'm waiting on it to be delivered, I will share as soon as it arrives. Hubby let me sleep in and cleaned house for me!

It was a Great Day!

Happy 13th Birthday Wishes!

Today is Crystal's 13th birthday!

We had a nice party for her yesterday with Family and Friends!

Today she is watching Project Runway for the first time which is a complete surprise to me since she has caught and caged this guy...

A Rat Snake!!!!

You can take the girl out of the Country but you can't take the Country out of the girl!!

5 Days No School due to TOO MUCH SNOW!!

What do you do with 5 days (Monday is the 5th day) no school? You play alot!!! You clean if your a Mom too and that's just what we did. I started with Abigail's room and moved her desk to under her window and went thru her toys again..they must multiply at night under the bed!! I need to finish spray painting her dresser knobs purple. We are making do with what we have right now until we find the perfect furniture (i.e. AFFORDABLE) for this little princess. She was proud of her clean room and she loves to pose. Monday is Crystal and Tankers turn, I'm dreading Tankers room cuse of all his little cars!

I ran to Krogers before the snow moved back in and they were Tripling the coupons so I grabbed some fun stuff and some items that I rarely buy but was a good price with the coupon special. I had already put away the fridge items when I snapped this pic, I even received a 4.00 off coupon on my next shopping trip! It's a learning process for me but I do enjoy the challenge of saving every penny I can.

 

We had a little Birthday Party for Crystal, she turned 11!! She only wanted to invite her best friend over to sled down our hill so we had a little cake/ice cream and they played outside the rest of the time. It was a great Saturday!

The news says school is cancelled again for tomorrow, more cleaning and playing for us! Not sure if DH is going to try to make it in to work, We are at a level 2 snow emergency already and the snow is supposed to continue till 6am Tues.

Hope you are Safe and Warm Tonight Friends!

A Birthday and Anniversary All Rolled Into One!

My DH Richard is turning 32 today and It's our 12 year Anniversary (Yes, we got married on his birthday, the joke is he'll never forget our Anniversary!) I'm so proud of my DH, he is a great Dad, wonderful Husband, My best friend!

Gong Out of My Comfort Zone for a Surprise Birthday Party

So yesterday I went out of my comfort zone and drove an hour on a busy Interstate with 3 hungry kids up to G'ma's house for her surprise Birthday party. I NEVER drive anywhere I don't know, I get sweaty hands, rapid heartbeat and feel like I'm going to throw up and often get tears in my eyes, I kid you not!! I had to suck it up though since DH was at work and was going to meet us there. My GPS was broken in the truck so I used the old fashioned writtened out directions and with lots of prayers, I beat DH there! It was a great time with good food and the drive home was better!


G'ma blowing out her candles and my lil Indiana Jones wanna-be, ain't he a Cutie..lol..


My DH and his mom


Her DH, He was getting cold.lol..



G'ma Terri with her friend Genie and then G'ma Terri with her best friend Rita and my DD

Have you ever had to go out of your comfort zone and then afterwards feel silly?

Lil Guy's 4th Birthday Pics

Happy 4th Birthday Lil Guy!!

We are off today to take Crystal to Children's Hospital for her Mole consult/surgery date, if we could have a lil prayer that her mole is not cancer, Thanks! Then we are spending the evening at G'mas house for cake and ice cream for lil guy, my 4 yr old bundle of boy energy..lol..

C's 10th Birthday Party at Gameworks

On Saturday we took the family to Gameworks at Easton to celebrate C's 10th birthday, G'ma Vivian and G'ma Terri were able to come along for the fun too. We spent about 3 hours playing some fun games but our fav. was the Ski Ball! After playing the games we walked around the stores and I got a great surprise which I'll show tomorrow. Everyone had a great time and then we came back home to a Pizza dinner and a homemade chocolate cake followed by opening presents. Since we were not able to invite C's friends due to short notice, we owe her a sleepover.

Happy 6th Birthday Abigail!!

Today is Abigail's 6th Birthday, 6 years ago I was in the Hospital with the best Christmas present ever! We celebrate her Birthday early so that Family is not stressed out and can enjoy the day, We had a small party here with an DQ Ice Cream cake.

9th Bday and a Dream

We had a Birthday party for my DD Sat. the 9th, She received her first Webkins and is in love with it! This week has been so busy with 2 Snow days and DH having to drive my truck to work. I'm busy trying to finish a Stitchery and keep a house clean of mud and snow!
I'm getting closer to my goal of opening my own Bookstore, I love the idea of having a used bookstore! I always have and DH is tired of me talking about it and has said for me to get prices on permits and storefronts for rent here in town. I have talked to the Chamber of Commerce and have gotten some great responses about places for lease. While the paperwork is getting ready and I have my ducks in a row I'm collecting as many books as I can!!
You can never have too many!
I have set a goal of opening before the end of this year, it won't happen over night but I'm one step closer!
I'm so excited and scared at the same time but if I don't try then I'll never know if I'm good at it or if I'll even like running a bookstore.
I'll be posting alot about this new venture, Be ready :)
