First Communion!!!

God answered a long prayed prayer...He filled my sons with the Holy Ghost! Middle son got it March 20, 2012 and baby boy got it five days later on March 25, 2012!!! Yes, we totally lost it! Now, we have a saved household! God is good! This photo was taken the night of their first Communion:

Helping Others

Helping out at our local soup kitchen for Thanksgiving. Its a family tradition that we have enjoyed doing for about 10 years now. We get up around 5:30 Thanksgiving morning, meet with our church group, help out where we can and around 12 we leave to go have our holiday meal with our family and loved ones.

Senior Photos

So, I really wanted to take my daughter's Senior Photos in the Fall, but on the nice pretty days, something would pop up and I couldn't get them done. Then, we had the one week of Indian summer weather and low and behold, I end up with the flu! Ugh! I prayed and the Lord saw fit to give us one more day of beautiful, warm weather in the middle of November AND I was able to take her photos!!! Yay!!!

Um, um, um

It's sad, I tell you! My poor neglected blog! Blame it alllll on Facebook! lol
This year alone has been really crazy busy! My daughter's senior year, her graduating, and being accepted to her dream college (mine, too because she can commute!), my husband finding my sons a home school basketball league that they LOVE and then, plenty of AAU leagues that are ASKING for my sons to play with them! And then, there's my photography I have been working on...
Through it all, I have mainly fb, but I am really missing my "private-ness" of blogging, which is about to send me on a plethora of blog postings- brace yourself!

Applications, Transcripts and Mail

It would appear that Senior year is a very busy year- so far we have been filling out applications to 5 colleges, getting transcripts done and getting a ton of college mail. Not complaining at all, its just all very interesting and keeps us really busy and its all so exciting to see my child about to embark on a new journey of her life!
I finally got my blog how I really want it to look- its been in my head for quite some time, I just hadn't had time to do anything and we just finished Fall Break and then, the dreaded flu came to visit. Thankfully, he has been kicked out of my house and I can think again, which left me time to do this!
Next up this week are Fall Senior photos- I will post as soon as I can...
