I am an overwhelmingly loved child of God, an extremely blessed wife, a mommy of four wonderfully made children, a thankful woman surrounded by many friendships that have made my heart full. God is good... ALL the time.

Saturday Easter fun!


My sister came over with my niece, sweet baby B. and she is soooooo precious. I didn't wanna let her go! I got some adorable pictures of just her that I will also share later. I am so mad at myself for not getting any of me and my sister though. I was so worried about getting them of the kids together I forgot. I LOVE this picture of Bubby holding her. He was so sweet with her and didn't wanna let her go!

I love this picture of the six of us. We hadnt had a good one in a long time! It is so hard to get four kids to look and smile all at the same time! :) I love all their beautiful smiles!













Awesome giveaway!!!! http://www.confessionsofahomeschooler.blogspot.com/ I LOVE this blog!

I am SOOOO in love with this man and I want everyone to know it!!!!

This is my best friend! He is so understanding, sweet, honest, selfless, interesting, unique, super funny, and sooooooo handsome! He has made me so happy to be his wife.

He isn't perfect and neither is our marriage but we know that and its something we try and constantly be aware of. One thing that I believe makes our marriage so great is #1. God, of course, He is the one that brought us together! He made us friends at the age of 16 and at 19 we became a 'couple'! I am so glad that we had over 3 years to be friends and to get to know each other at such a young age. We were not 'high school sweethearts' but we got to be something even greater, friends! True friends! We hung out, told each other secrets and didn't have to go through that 'weird' stage of getting to know each other and impressing each other. We were just ourselves! I love to think back on the memories we share. I took him to school dances so I could have fun and not be nervous taking a guy I 'liked'! We would hang out almost every weekend and I even got to go on 'guy nights' and that was sooooo fun! LOL! I remember riding in the back of MY car while our friend Andy drove and Justin hung out the passenger window waving and Andy yelled as loud as he could, 'Here comes the GREAT JUSTIN!' (in my neighborhood) I remember for my senior prom Justin had Andy drive us in his Cadillac so it would be like we had a limo. :) I remember Justin and Scott racing by the Airport and the guys making me stand out in the cold to watch and tell them who won! Haha! I love that we can share those memories! My friend Candace started hanging out with us too and I am so glad I get to share so many of those memories with her too. Sometimes we had to be the boring 'moms' and stop them from doing something toooo crazy! I have always loved that funny, crazy, silly side of my husband. I believe that is one thing that also helps our marriage. We support each other and the personalities we have. I want him to always feel uplifted, like he can always accomplish his goals and dreams. I want him to know that I am and always will be his #1 fan! That's how we should make each other feel! I am learning to also show my appreciation for him by keeping our house clean and showing him how much I appreciate him working for US outside the home while I take care of the home and our adorable children. I LOVE that I get to stay home with them and feel soooooo greatly blessed that God has given me this opportunity! He has blessed us with so many things and this is one thing I hold dear to my heart. God has entrusted us with HIS children, to raise them, to teach them of His love and guide them to be responsible, God fearing and loving adults. This is another reason I want to make sure my marriage is how it should be. Our babies watch our every move and they WILL grow to be a lot like us and I want them to find amazing men like their daddy or for Bubby to be like his daddy!! :) And I want to be the best example of a loving wife that I can be! LOVE NEVER FAILS...1 Corinthians 13:8 Live your life and your marriage completely out of selfless love, a love from God and a love like 1 Corinthians 13 shows us and your marriage and your life will blossom! Love never fails and God never fails!




NEVER, NEVER, NEVER!!!

My little sissy Zozo!

Zozo is getting so big. I can't believe that she will be 11 this summer, sooooooo weird!!! I love having her as my little sister. I was 18 when she was born and I remember being so excited to have a baby in the house. It was a big change and sometimes it was hard but it was fun. It is still fun. I love having her over and she keeps the kids very occupied so I can usually get a lot done when she is here to play with the girls. I took this picture of her the other day because my mom brought her by in her new outfit, jewelry, headband, and shoes she got this week shopping to wear in some modeling contest she got nominated for. She looked so pretty! I am excited about watching her become a teenager and I pray that I can always be close to her. Sometimes I feel more like an aunt but either way, its fun! I want her to always know that I am here for her and that I love her and always want the best for her in her life!

I LOVE YOU ZOZO!
