Christmas Morning

We had a wonderful Christmas here with Connie, Alan, Mark and Casey. The kids as always got way more then they needed, and I even cut back by more then half this year. Having Corey home is the best gift I got this year, It's been so great to have him here and we are all going to miss him so much when he heads home tomorrow. Anyway we had Christmas morning here and then Christmas dinner and more presents at my Mom and Dads, with Jessie and Jared and talked to Thomas, he is at school in Texas and loving it there but we did miss him over the holidays. Above is Thea roller blades that Corey got for her.
This is the boys gift from Daddy a soccer ball and net. They love it.

The barbie furniture for her barbie house that Dad and I made for her.

Donovan and Logan got bikes this year I know Logan doesn't look happy but he would not get off to open anything elas he would only open then if he could stay on his bike and trying to get him in the house when Grandpa and Daddy where done watching the boys, forget it he just lost it.

Donovan's bike he's so cute riding it.

Thea's Barbie house

All the kids got the little Sing-a-magigs in there stocking. There really funny

Santa brought the pillow pets just like the kids asked for. Thea asked for and got a Dolphin Logan got a monkey. And Donovan only asked for the Ladybug we showed him all kids of other ones but he just kept asking for the Ladybug and was so so happy when he got it! He gave it the biggest hug!

Merry Christmas!!!!!

HAPPY CHRISTMAS EVE!!!!

So We Did Not

After falling in love with a house and having so many plans, we are walking away from it. The home inception came back with some major problems. We asked the seller to fix them but they refused to fix any thing even have the heater serviced. so we're walking way I hate it and am so ready to say to heck with buying a house! But I don't want to rent ether, so dose that leave me living with family for ever....no that's not going to work ether so back to house hunting. Good buy house we really liked you and had so may grand plans for you and our family.
I hope every ones Holiday Season is wonderful and full of happy familys.
Merry Christmas!!!!

WE DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!

So we did it! We bought a house!!!! It's crazy I really can't believe that we did it. That we found something we both like and our offer was expiated! We really felt like we where cursed that people would always say no. But no we got just what we wanted no compromising. It really is made for us. It a 3 bed room 1 bath 1640 Sq foot house on a little over an acre of land. We're sooooooooo excited!!!! Thea and I are so ready to get chickens, goats, a cow, horses, bunny's cats dogs. OK I want the chickens and dogs for Corey, but every thing else is on Thea's list and we'll see what we get in the spring, that is coming up so fast. We should close on it some time in January. I'll post more pics soon.

Just a little Taste

So just a little taste of the house more to come when I get them up loaded.

This is the Front Porch with Corey and the Realtor
From the corner of the land
Our own little culd a sac one other house has a drive way on our street but it at the start of the street. I love that the kids will be able to ride there bikes anytime they want to and no cars for me to worry about.
Oou acre is a little triangle island with our drive way on one side and then roads on the other. The drive way ends at the culd a sac. This is one point of the triangle by the culd a sac
Basketball hoop. This is one of the roads it the busiest one. We're going to fence the whole thing when we can. so the kids really can be out there any time they want to.
Corey so cute
The back yard.
All our Trees and the side yard
My drive oh I mean OUR drive way. And Connie car because she's so awesome and watched the kids so I could go see the house and let me use her car that has heat and way better gas mpg then my monster car.
some of the land.

We're Still Here

OK so I have been really bad about blogging lately but I don't' have my computer with me Corey has it. So still no pic just a run down of what we have been up to. So as you know Corey is working hard in Richland and staying with some wonderful people a friends grandparents. He is doing fine board and a lot lonely but other wise fine. HE was home for Thanksgiving for 4 whole days it was WONDERFUL we loved having him home and with us, but the time was to short. The kids and I are still with Grandma and Grandpa Bowles and are the same doing fine but missing daddy soooo much. Thanksgiving was fun with all our friends and family then black Friday shopping at midnight (OK we left at 10 pm ) to after 8 am but now we're done or should be if i could stay out of the stores :). Corey is house hunting for us and has one he really like and every thing I have seen in the pic it looks really good so we are moving forward and will be putting an offer in some time this week or weekend.

we are mostly just going day to day not much going on. But two weeks ago we got snow and had snow days that was fun Logan who had never seen it be for could not stay out of it every time the door was open he was out there shoes or not. Thea is not a big cold person and wants to move home to the dessert and the sun shine she doesn't really get that it's cold there too. Donovan learned how to have snow ball fights thanks to me and thinks its the only thing to do in the snow. The kids are all looking forward to Christmas. We went and got our/Grandma and Grandpas tree. There was so so so much mud the kids loved it and where so muddy when we left again thanks to mama who said there so happy playing in the mud honey let them play. they my car was muddy next time we'll lessen to daddy. I have pic of every thing we're doing and when I have my own computer again I will blog like crazy. I hope every one is having a wonderful Holiday season and enjoying this wonderful time of year!
