OH WOW! Long time no blog!

Wow! Where to start. I know its been awhile since I posted last, and I apologize. I promise I will do better! I can't seem to organize my thoughts very well right now, so I am going to do a quick update in bullet format.

• J got layed off of work in May. Its been a big change but we are surviving. The kids and I love having him home with us, and know that when one door closes another door opens, we are just waiting to see the door open for us.
• In June we celebrated our 12th wedding anniversary. We took the kids to their Aunt Sue's and then we joined some friends at the lake for a 2 day camping trip. The kids love to spend time at Aunt Sue's and we are very blessed to have family that is willing to watch and spend time with the kids.
• July 4th we had a blast... spent the day out at the pond with family and friends, bbq'd lots of good food, enjoyed the company of several great people, and then it rained. It rained for 6 hours that morning, and then that evening as we were setting up to blow stuff up, it poured again.. a lot of people left then.. but a handful of us stuck it out until the end. After the rain quit we blew lots of stuff up and then we crashed in the tents until morning.
• July 29 Darrian turned 12! That is a post in and of itself, coming in the next couple days.

So there is a quick update on us, I will be posting more in the days to come.. we have a trip to whitewater bay and froniter city planned this weekend, plus an opportunity to see grandpa and grnadma Flo Saturday morning, so I'll be sure to post pics!

Kayleigh

I broke down in tears this morning reading a blog that I have followed, pretty much silently, since I came across it several months ago. Little Kayleigh was born 10 months ago, 12 weeks premature weighing only 1.1 lbs. She remained in the NICU and her family was very much looking forward to finally being able to bring her home, and that day looked like it was very much a soon to be reality. Only that day will never happen, little Kayleigh Anne Freeman went to be with our heavenly father on Monday, May 11th 2009. Kayleigh is in heaven looking down on us all. My heart is broken for her family and everyone that she touched in her short life. Please take the time to go by their page and let them know that we are all thinking and praying for them.

Mother's Day fun

On Sunday, we took the kids along with my mom and brother to Frontier City for the day. Although the day was cloudy and cool and the fact that it poured in the morning, we really had a good time. We were able to ride everything that was open and got to ride some of the rides twice. We learned that mi-mi can't ride the ship ride because it makes her lightheaded and dizzy, but other than that mi-mi rode everything that didn't go upside down. Aiden got to ride the ship for the first time and he LOVED it! It started a light rain right before we left for the day, but we took it in stride. :) My brother took us all out to dinner after we made it back to town and that was a good time as well. TY Bumpy!

Band Concert

D had his 6th grade beginning band concert this evening. Was a fun night, 5 different bands played. Let me say WOW what a difference from the beginning of the year until now. They played 3 songs, my favorite was the 2nd one. Only 10 more days of school for the kids left....NOOOOOOO lol.

D is the cutie in the purple shirt :P .... so i may be a lil partial lol

Crazy Weekend

This was a relatively busy and crazy weekend.
Yesterday was a girls day... me, mom, my sis, and T all got to hang out for the day. We went shopping, got hair cuts, went out to lunch, and just really had a good time. After we did all that, the kids all got to stay the night at my mom's :) which is always a good thing for me lol. They love their mi-mi and love being able to spend the time at her house.
Today the kids went to church with my mom and sister, and then they brought the two lil ones home, D went back to mom's for the afternoon. A had a birthday party this evening, so we went to that, then picked D up from mi-mi's and came home for a quick dinner, showers, and bed.
