Where have we been?

OK, so where I have been for the last year & a half? I can't believe it has taken me this long to blog again. I started off so good & then got offered a dream job. Between working part-time, being a mommy, church, etc. that left little time for anything else so needless to say blogging fell to the wayside. Now that I am planning to cut back on my hours & work from home I am going to put forth my best effort to keep this updated.

Since the last post...BUSY! BUSY! BUSY!
To cover our major life changes:


Me, besides going back to work, I am desperately trying to keep a promise that I made to myself & my family last Fall to say "NO". I am a volunteer-aholic & it is a struggle for me to say that word, but I have to come a point that I realize that even with very worthwhile things there comes a time when I can't efficiently do everything that I want to do.

Ryan has moved to a different fire station & continues to grow his cabinet business. He does beautiful work. I am amazed at his talent & how he can figure out how to make anything work.








Cole is incredible! He is now in 3rd grade. Who can believe it? He is such the perfectionist & reminds me so much of myself at that age & even now. He is an excellent student, enjoys playing all sports & absolutely loves Auburn football!
WAR EAGLE!












Ben is so much fun! He started kindergarten this year. He was so excited to finally go to "big" school that he didn't want us to walk him in on the first day. Too bad for him, we did anyway! He is still full of energy & loves to play outside. He has become quite the fisherman of the family.






Our biggest life change...I am no longer surrounded by a house full of boys! On August 18th, another female joined our family.
Meg Olivia is such a sweet, content, beautiful baby. Although I know that with two brothers she will no doubt come to love the dirt & playing outdoors, for now I am going to relish that sweet baby smell, cute clean clothes & hair bows.
I am so incredibly blessed!
