My new life

  I am now a mother of three children all in school!  AAAAHHHH!  The first week was a blast...and then I woke up!  LOL  The first week I deep cleaned the house, washed the dogs, caught up on laundry(for a second), cleaned the cars, did yard work, got all the shopping done (alone), and even started the Couch to 5K program!  Whew, and I was tired, but felt so good!  Then, week two came along and I still had some laundry and dishes, but it was mostly maintenance.  The running only took 30min, three days a week, and the yard wasn't really in need of another cut.  So what was I to do?

  First, I had a small meltdown, of not having another little one in the house to take care of and use my time.  Then, I realized that was getting me nowhere and I shutdown my pity party and started thinking.  I put my feelers out to my friends and family and go some ideas.  I have now taken over family history for my side of the family and I really love it.  I also, continued running for four weeks and then realized (when the Dr. told me) that I had fractured my heel!  I am in an air-cast until, at least, Christmas.  I also, picked back up on my photo project I was working on for my mom.  I have been doing my best to get all our photo prints scanned in and restored so that they aren't lost to time.  Once I finish my moms collection I am moving onto my Granny's huge stash.

  As far as things to come...we are just anxiously awaiting the opportunity to purchase a house, come March!  I am nervous and excited all at the same time!  I have also, loved spending more time with some friends and my sisters.  I have the best nieces and nephews and I love getting to see them!  I am still working out how to get up to Wisconsin to see the Archibalds.  The only reason I haven't made it yet is because my husband and kids would never forgive me if I didn't take them with me!

Honestly, out of all that I have been doing, I have loved going through all the old photos of my sisters and family!  I am going to post some and I hope I have picked ones that my sisters love of themselves!  They are beautiful girls, sisters, and moms!  Love to you all!

 This is one of my absolute favorite pictures of Jennie!  She has the prettiest red hair and gorgeous face with those cute freckles!  I use to always dream of having a redheaded daughter!!

 When Danny and I first saw this photo we both said, "That's Zade!"  Sara has always been the fashion queen in the family!  She has the best personality I could ask for in a big sister!

 This, of course, is me.  I picked this picture because my dad is in in with me!  Mos of the memories I have when I was little are with my dad.  Also, if you look behind my dad you can see my cousin Davin and Aunt Debbie's legs. (I think)

 Lacy broke the mold when she came along!  She had that blond hair and the cutest button nose.  Which, I must say her son has inherited!  She mad me a big sister and I love her dearly!

 This is just one of my favorite pictures!  Mom is so beautiful and Lacy almost looks like a doll!

 Elizabeth!  What can I say...I was meaner to her than I should have been, but I never let anyone else touch her!  This is her at like 3 and look at how long her hair is!  She can grow it even though it's curly.

My favorite photo of my Dad.  He is such a handsome guy and then look at how much my sisters wanted to be with him!
