Merry Christmas from our new home!

We have officially moved and closed our house. We love living close to most of our family!

We are already for Santa to come in the morning!!! Can't wait to see the kids faces as they open their presents =)

Getting ready for Christmas

We have lights up at our house and all our xmas decor out! We love our new house and living in the country.

Haley lost her front two teeth so this xmas she can sing that song with pride! All I want for Xmas is my two front teeth!!

I have all my shopping done but two people!! Almost all presents are wrapped and I even grabbed some birthday presents.

We had a girls day out today and it was fun...watched Tangled! Great movie!

LOTS GOING ON...

We are finally in the process of getting our house and moving. We are so pumped about moving out of the apartments! Finalizing things will make us feel a ton better. Our dream house, near family, in the country is where we want to be!!!

Jason has been working for a guy part time around his house and hopefully starting something new on the weekends!

I have started coaching cheer on Wednesdays, coaching gymnastics on Thursdays...soccer is over and lots of school things going on! Keeping busy for sure. Parent/Teacher conferences are nearing and then FALL BREAK!!!

Haley bug enjoyed her soccer team this year...they were awesome! She is loving gymnastics and especially having momma has her coach! =) She is doing so good in 1st grade...we are very proud of her!

Caden...our mr. funny pants! He is everywhere into everything! He is trying to tell us sorts of stuff but we are trying to learn exactly what he is saying. I ask him if he wants something and he say nuh huh....so cute! He loves playing with his big sister.

hanging out at home

Caden is getting so big! He is starting to talk more....

He says

What's that?
Where did it go?
ball, car, spongebob, mom, dad, etc.

The first two are his favorite things to say.

He has met a new friend at the apartment and wants to go play with him all the time. They are so funny together...they are only three months apart.

Overall he is just a funny boy who is a STINKER!!!!


Haley has started soccer and gymnastics and loving both of them!

THREE DAY WEEKEND

Three day weekends are so nice! Our weekends are going to be busy with soccer and Jason working so we enjoyed this uneventful weekend.
Friday we took a quick trip to the apple orchard and then Haley went to spend the night at her friends house.
Saturday Haley eventually came home from her friends house and we hung out at home and did nothing all day.
Sunday we took a trip to the campground to visit family after playing with sidewalk chalk. Had dinner and a hayride there.
Monday we took a trip to the park, took a combine and tractor ride with Uncle Adam, went to a party, and played with sidewalk chalk some more!

THE FUN BEGINS

Well our busy times start again! This year Miss Haley is playing soccer and flipping around in gymnastics. I am coaching her soccer team and she is playing U7 this year. She is in Level 1 in gymnastics. She is at my friends new gym...Jaycie Phelps Athletic Center. She is so excited to be doing both. So every Monday, Thursday and weekends are tied up for awhile!

School has started again!

Haley is enjoying her time back at school...made it over a week and went to the back to school fair! She is tired but learning more and more each day.

I am enjoying being back in the classroom and I have a great class to start off my new year as a classroom teacher again!

Jason and Caden are hanging out at the apartment, visiting the park, and the library...doing the things they do while Haley and I are at school.

Summer is coming to an END =(

Well we have had an eventful and Ok summer. It is now coming to an end as school is starting in 10 days. We have moved twice and not necessarily by choice and we have one more move before we are settled into a house. We have put an offer on a house and hoping they accept. If they do we will be going back toward the family which will be nice!

We did get to take a brief vacation. We went to Whitewater State Park. We were going to go boating and tubing but never got to because the motor stopped working one morning while Jason was fishing. So we spent a lot of time at the beach area.

Haley and I are excited to be starting 1st grade together! We will see each other often and it shall be an interesting and fun school year. We have already gotten her school supplies and back to school clothes. I still have some work to do to get ready for my kiddos.

Jason and Caden will be going back into the routine of Haley and I going off to school each morning. Not sure what they are going to do, but they always find something.

Splash Park...Pool...Fair

We have been busy! We have been to a Splash Park and a Pool with a splash area. We also have been getting ready for the fair.

Haley took Wildlife, Crafts, Foods, Cake Decorating, Rabbits, Sheep, Goats,

Graduation and Summer Pictures

SWEET SUMMER TIME

Well my baby girl cleaned house at Awards Day. I couldn't believe all her awards.
She got:
Presidential Academic Award
Cheer Stars
Outstanding Computer Award
National Fitness Award
Reading Award
Graduating from Kindergarten
She got most likely to become a Veterinarian

So proud of my girl! She has grown so much this school year. She is reading and excelling in Math. Can't believe she is going to be in first grade.

She is now doing her Mini 4-H Projects. She is in a lot. Hopefully we will get them all done! =)


Caden is busy eating, running, playing, chasing his sister, and sleeping.
His favorite things are:
Crackers
Cookies
PIZZA
Chicken Nuggets
Trains
Cars
Pushing a stroller
Taking things apart and making a mess!

We are getting our house in order...at least trying. Meeting Neighbors. Getting ready for the Fair. Enjoying our first two days of summer!

The school year is coming to an end!

We have one more day of school and then SUMMER VACATION!

Haley will be headed to first grade and as of right now so am I. Things could change for next year but as of right now I am going to be teaching first grade.

Caden and Jason have one more day of daddy daycare and then momma and sissy are home for a few months.

We have moved and enjoying our new place!

Softball TIME

Haley has started softball. Her daddy is coaching and it is nice being the parent who watches instead of volunteering all the time! I get to enjoy being a spectator!! Well I also have to chase Caden around too, Mr. Busy Body! Haley did so much better today at her second game. She hit the ball both times up to bat and she played catcher tonight. We are so proud of how hard she played tonight.

Caden is 15 months now. He loves Spongebob. Jason got a Spongebob toilet seat for the kids bathroom and he thinks that is so great! He loves to talk, get in to everything he isn't suppose to, play hide and seek, and is so much fun at this age!

Haley and I have less than 30 school days left! Then we are off to new adventures! Haley will be going to 1st grade...which I just can't believe. She is reading and writing and acting much older than she is suppose to be. I am going back in the classroom. I am unsure of school or grade but lucky to have a job. I know I will be put where I am suppose to be and I am awaiting to hear where that is. I hope to here soon. If I move schools then so will Ms. Haley! So we are waiting to hear.

Jason sold his fishing boat and got a bigger one. Now all four of us can fit in the new one. He is waiting for a part for the motor and hopefully we all can go out on it soon!

Our house has been on the market for a year and so now we have decided that since it has not sold we are done! Our plan is to stay here and eventually build on to it to make it bigger. We love our neighborhood and where we live so making this place bigger just makes sense. For some reason the house isn't selling so we feel that is our sign that we are suppose to stay!

We are looking forward to a fun summer. I am going to take some classes through school, Haley will play softball, we will go to the pool, go boating, and whatever else we can find to do!!! Looking forward to an adventurous family filled summer!!!

Spring 2010

Well we went to FLORIDA and had a wonderful time. We stayed at a resort and never really left except once or twice. Haley went to Disney and met Ariel with Mamaw and papaw. They also rode some rides. We basically played putt putt, swam, got some sun, played in the sand, took walks, and relaxed! It was very relaxing and just what we needed. Haley got to hunt for Easter Eggs in Florida and the Easter bunny came there because she was going to be with her daddy on Easter. She was so excited! We are glad to be home but miss being on vacation.

We have nine weeks left of school and then Haley and I are off for summer vacation so this summer will be fun since Caden is bigger and we can do more stuff!

Florida - SPRING BREAK 2010

Well our long awaited trip to Florida is finally here and we are now here! We are staying in Orlando. We flew and when we got to the airport Haley fell and busted her lip and hit her tooth and now it is more loose than it was before. She was bleeding everywhere but she will be fine! We have swam a little, played in the sand, taken some walks, had some yummy food, and enjoying time with our family! Hope tomorrow is going to be much nicer since it rained today! The resort is very nice and we love it so far. Looking forward to going to the other pools, lazy river, slides, and putt putting.

NOT READY TO COME HOME YET =)

EVENTFUL EVENING!

Well we have had an exciting evening!

Jason has been working on building a rabbit hutch for Haley future rabbit all week! It turned out really great...

Then came the hunt for the rabbit...which Jason found today in Noblesville and decided to get a baby Californian breed girl...

Haley's face was priceless...she named her Bela and was so surprised and couldn't believe we decided to let her have one!!!

Then we went to petsmart to find a cage for inside and to take places, went to Target and then Burger King to grab dinner.

Got home and Haley screamed momma my tooth is loose! She says this constantly but this time she was serious...her tooth was very loose and bleeding =)

Later that evening I talked her into letting me just pull on it with one finger for two dollars and it came right out...she said thank you mom it didn't hurt at all. She was jumping around everywhere and we read the book "The night before the tooth fairy"

What a wonderful evening for her and full of great surprises!!!!

Haley's Birthday

Haley just had her 6th Birthday! She has grown so much the last 6 years...

Two weekends ago I took some of her friends and her to Monkey Joes for her birthday and Pizza King. They had so much FUN! I made her a chocolate cake and put a guitar on it for decoration.

Then the following day we had a family party. Gma made her favorite RIBS, tater tots, cottage cheese, and baked beans. I make a guitar cupcake cake and she opened presents.

At school she had ice cream sandwiches and then daddy took her somewhere special this past weekend. She had lots of birthday fun!


Caden has been cutting his back teeth and has been pretty fussy! Poor baby! Wehave been cleaning house, watching movies, relaxing, and working on things around the house.
