Finally finished my training and will be on the floor tonight!! Praying I make good money! Bryan and the kids have been awesome with this transition in our life! I would joke with Bryan and call him my substitute teacher, but I think he deserves the title of co-teacher! He is doing a great job with the kids schooling! In fact, I am getting a little jealous... :) We have implemented a little more structure in our week to make things go smoother with mom and dad in and out. I am so blessed to have a family whose glass is always half full!! We just pull together and make it work, whatever it is. This season in our lives is a little busy, but thankfully we have the privledge to homeschool! I do miss Kayla! Between school and her social life, and now me working, we don't get much time together. She is a teenager, so I am sure she would prefer it that way :)
Although we are BUSY BUSY right now, I feel like more than ever I am conscious of embracing each moment we have together as a family. Not just "getting through" another day, but living each day and making it matter.

Momma's going to work?!?
Bryan and I have decided that I am going to have to go back to work for a while. While I know this is just a "season" in our lives, I am still a little apprehensive. I have not officially had a real job outside the home in over 6 years. I think it will be a nice break, but am overwhelmed at the thought of trying to squeeze all of this into my life right now. I know that God is in control, and He will never give me more than I can handle, So I am clinging to those promises right now. Bryan is an awesome dad, and is willing to teach the kids on the days that I work. If you feel led, please pray that this is an easy transition for us.

Weekend at the Lee's Farm
Reflecting on an awesome Saturday at the Lee's farm. Bubba caught a huge catfish... 7lbs. His face lit up so bright when he ran to tell Bryan that he had just reeled that fish in! It was precious. The kids also 
got to shoot a few different types of guns. We cooked out, and Bryan made his famous ribs! Later that night John and his boys built a super bon fire. We roasted marshmallows and made s'mores.

We had such a good time. I love that we can build these sweet memories for our family. Good old fashioned fun. No amusement parks, expensive toys (well, maybe the guns LOL), not a lot of money spent, but the experience was priceless. We are so blessed to have such amazing friends!! I can't wait to do it again!!

Seraya
The princess of the bunch! She is super sweet and smart. She loves animals and hope to be an animal police woman one day :)
Kayla
Kayla is a funny and talented. She is very gifted at performing arts and is always honor roll at school. She is the oldest and she thinks, the wisest, of all the children.
About US
Bryan and I met in August of 1995. Although we were not living for the Lord at that time, I believe His hand has always been over us. We knew shortly after meeting that we were in love and wanted to spend the rest of our lives together. We were married 6 months later and Bryan left for basic training. For those of you that knew us then, I know you thought we were crazy and we would never make it. I have to admit there were times I thought the same thing :) But here we are, almost 14 years later and more in love now than ever. We give all the glory to whom it is due, it is only by the grace of God that we are who we are today. We surrendered our will and our lives to Him on Easter morning of 2000, and have never been the same since. I cannot wait to spend the rest of my life with Bryan here and beyond. He is the best husband and father, and I feel blessed to be chosen as his "help meet" Genesis 2:18
