Update:

I haven't wrote in like two weeks, so I decided to give you guys a short update of what we have been up to. Warren is working on getting his CDL License for work, so we have been studying the book together to try and prepare him for the written test which I hope he passes with no problems, this is something he has been interested in for along time and I hope he achieves his dream. I have been really busy at work since the new property has opened it has put alot more on my plate that I am not use to I am usually very caught up at all times and spend alot of my free time playing online. I will be so glad when I am able to relax again in my boring little office lol. Tristan has been doing really well in school, they are doing multiplications so we have been doing alot of studying trying to make sure he conquers them all. He brought home good grades this past week and Warren and I were so proud of him. He finally got his bike fixed so his friends and him have done alot of riding and having a blast this spring.
Jaxon loves his video games of course, he will spend all day playing if you let him. He also loves to play outside with Tristan and his friends when Tristan will let him you know how big brothers can be lol. Zander is getting better each and every day he loves running and riding his bike, loves to go to the park with mawmaw and loves to go to visit Big Moma Big Daddy and Grandma, he is a very loving kid and he just cracks me up somedays. Brady oh our dear child Brady he is still into everything and is always running in the house and 99% of the time he is not watching and runs into whatever maybe in his way, poor child I don't know how many more hits they head can take lol, Our sweet baby Lucas is now 5 months old Oh how the time has passed, he is now smiling, laughing, sitting up and trying to talk lol he is so funny and is such a morning person. He is always smiling and laughing when he wakes up and it just makes our day. He is just a doll and such a wonderful loving baby. We are so blessed to have five of the most extraordinary children that make us such proud parents...I love my boys! I hope everyone is blessed and having a wonderful week so far, please keep our family in your prayers, we just started going back to church and I hope we continue, it makes us feel so much better week by week. I love the fact that kids can now receive something I received as a child and that is the word of God, all children have a chance so always pray for them to not only live better but happier lives than you, there is nothing they can not achieve and as there parents we try everyday to lead them in the right direction. I thank God daily for all the inspiration I had in my life, because eventhough I haven't always made the right decision I have always tried to learn from my mistakes and make the next time better and more meaningful. Live life to the fullest and trust in our Lord to lead you in the right directions. Well I have rattled on long enough gotta get some sleep. Love you guys!

Fun with Friends...

So I know I haven't wrote in awhile, but I have been really busy trying to stay caught up on housework, spending time with the family and well sleeping. So we have had alot of drama going on with my family, thankfully I don't live that close so I get to share my opinion from a distance. I love my family with all my heart and I know as long as we all stick together we can help our family members make it through this extremely difficult time they are facing in their lives and no one is making excuses for them but I am just hoping that no one gives up on them either. So anyway its has been a very nice week, kinda busy at work, we just opened a new property in Montevallo so its has been extremely busy and besides we have had alot of little things go wrong this week. So we are hoping for a little better of a work week next week. Thursday was a friend of ours Jan's birthday so we all went out last night for dinner and ended up stopping for a few drinks, we met up with a few of our other friends also and had a blast, we didn't make it home till 3:00am. This is not something me and Warren do very often we are both home bodies and like to just hangout at home and watch movies or have the kids entertain us lol so we tried our best to enjoy ourselves and I tell you I had a great time and will have to start going out at least every 6 months maybe. We came in and the sitters did a pretty good job, Brady was asleep on the couch so he must have been a handful and Lucas woke up as soon as he heard our voices so we played with him for awhile and then off to bed, even with a sitter we aren't even able to sleep in we are so use to our weekend schedule of cooking breakfast that of course we were up early. After breakfast we went to the bank, post office and then to Wal-mart to buy groceries, we get back home put up the groceries and clean up the house. The kids have been up stairs since dinner, thanksfully for the Little Ceasars driver he serves us faithfully. We are working on laundry now and just relaxing watching a movie, Warren and Lucas are playing on the couch and Lucas is goo gooing at him and he is doing his famous growl...they are so cute! The kids are upstairs playing and it sounds like they are killing each other so I guess I need to check on them lol Have a great weekend!!

Snow Snow go away.....

The kids went back out after lunch to play in the snow some more, Warren and I stayed in this time, we were exhausted from playing in the snow that morning and also from cleaning up after the snow, the kids were coming in every 20 minutes needing to change their gloves, we eventually ran out of gloves and everyone had to start using socks lol, I really like the snow that one day a year that we might get it but by the end of the day I am so thankful that we don't get it everyday. The kids were sad to see the snow start to melt away by the afternoon, we got all of them in the house, gave them a warm bath and they all had hot chocolate again to drink, we then ate dinner, they played their video games and we watched some movies so all in all it was a wonderful snowy day!

Snowy Day






Warren and I woke up about 6am to see if it had snowed and to our surprise there was a significant amount of snow on the ground. We were so excited but we patiently waited for the kids to wake up. Warren went to the store and got extra batteries for the camera since I can't find the charger for the rechargeable batteries, we then cooked breakfast and got the kids clothes ready for them to go outside. They finally woke up so we ate breakfast and then got dressed. We all went out to play except Lucas, the kids threw snowballs, made snow angels and tried to slide down the hill on our homemade sled but it didn't work but the kids all had a blast and so did me and Warren. We came inside to thaw out and get some hot chocolate. We are all now relaxing and watching a movie, we are planning on going back out after lunch so I will post more later.
