MAJOR CATCH UP!



Hailee was in the school play again and she had the part as the mom.  She did really good and she had a lot of fun.  The play was called Whip Out and they had a surf competition to save the mommy and pappy surf shack.  In the end they saved their shack and all was good.




For the past few years for HaiLees birthday her Aunt Gina has taken her to go ride horses.  HaiLee has a great time. Thanks Aunt Gina!!







So this year when we went to the tulip festival Tim talked me into letting the kids take a helicopter ride,  I have a video of them taking off and landing but not sure how to get them on here :)  soon i hope.  i was a nervous wreck but the kids had a blast. 

The first mow of the year.  TJ did a great job and i am so thankful that i have a kid that can do it :) 



Treavors first baseball game.  The other kids have not had a game yet so stay tuned for more pictures of my athletes.  I love going to the games and watch them have fun.


Treavor and his best friend Jaden went to an Easter egg hunt.  TJ stayed home because he wasn't feeling to well but it was crazy and fun at the same time. 

Ran into Albertsons to get stuff and an Easter Bunny showed up, so it was a Kodak moment :)






Dying Easter Eggs

Last but not least my grand puppy, BreAnna and Penn got a puppy and BreAnna said to "Smile for Grandma" and he sticks his tong out. Calibur is so tiny and cute.

HOW IS BEING UNEMPLOYED FEEL?

I have had a job since I was 16, i have never not had a job because being a single mother i couldn't afford not to work.  Being in the mortgage industry this day and age has been a struggle to stay employed.  Seattle Mortgage has been a great place to work for the past 10 years and have seen many changes though the years with in the same company.  My kids only know of me working at Seattle Mortgage.  I feel really blessed to have survived this long with them.  With that said me taking some time off to figure out what i want to do when i grow up has been hard.  I have a supportive family and husband that letting me stay  home has been fairly easy.  I have found that i have nothing but time on my hands.  Usually when i get home from work it is RUSH, RUSH, RUSH, between making dinner, getting kids to sports activities and such i was always felt rushed. I forget that i have time so when i go and cook dinner i rush though it when i can actually take my time and enjoy cooking again.  I have projects that i will be working on shortly and know that i don't have to rush because i have all week to get them done.  One thing that i am noticing is that i am forgetting things like crazy.  I feel like i don't use my brain enough i guess.  I am getting used to the idea of being home.
