{Me Thinks....Don't Blink....}

cause......

Another week will fly by!!! Thursday and Friday was no school so that was extra fun finding things to do we got the play dough out on the back deck and the kids spent forever playing with it. I kind of wondered why I didn't get it out sooner this summer.. Duh!! Oh well!
Summer kind of flew by too!
Friday night I actually got out of the house and went to a girls night so fun! Then Saturday bright and early D was out in the yard helping the top soil spreaders such a long day.
So we had another busy weekend with four kids, a very busy and hard working husband, and lots going on it makes the weeks fly by.
Its hard to believe my baby -- baby will be 8 soon!! And L is getting so big and grown up loving school and new friends
---- Kenny chesney has it right when he sings DON'T Blink!
Before you know it they are big kids! Your babies aren't babies anymore
You've been married for a long time, you become the middle aged couple but you still feel like the young married couple with a few kids or none at all whatever it is...then you realize thats how your parents felt and old people are just young people in there..crazy to think about.....

but we are going to enjoy the journey as it comes every stage along the way.....cause one day we will miss this......

..Laughing....I love this picture me and M laughing and K2 wondering whats going on!the looks....."MOM why do you take so many pictures of me!!"
I promise I don't have one picture of his beautiful big smile when we bring the camera out he refuses to smile for it or me!

all the craziness.....noise and ......No wonder K2 never wants to look at them they are all trying to get his attention all at once! I love watching them with him. They love to entertain him... one of my favorite times is story time just before bed with all of them! Saturday night we had a lot of fun reading, playing ....one of those times where you go to bed thinking it was a good day! Lots of fun memories!
{L was feeling better too so it was a really good day I was beginning to worry that she had swine flu not really but kinda!}

story time...........milestones.....Almost 3 months crazy how times flies! sitting up bumbo style and no shirt because it was stinkin hot!!!.....and my big boy today look at those big blue eyes !! {{What would we do without a soother!!}}milestones.....Look at my yard its getting there!! The top right side is garden boxes and in the corner will be the shed and a big sand box, along the back will be some pine trees, in the top left corner will eventually be a fire pit and cement pad, then on the left bottom will be the trampoline and play center and bottom deck!! ALL in time but I am excited D has worked the entire year so hard between the basement and back yard!!

ME THINKS....
sometimes in life we all make choices

sometimes I feel sad for the choices some make....

sometimes it hurts to watch people go through

the consequences of their choices....through trials...heartache....

sometimes it only takes choosing the left fork in the road

instead of the RIGHT fork.....

sometimes there is nothing you can do

sometimes just watching and learning from them is the best choice....

life is all about that....choices..attitude...determination...no matter what....

Every Time each choice determines which direction the future
takes each of us

because of our choices and how we CHOOSE to react

what fork we take in the road makes all the difference.....

I hope we're all working on taking the right fork..

You are the person who has to decide.
Whether you'll do it or toss it aside;

you are the person who makes up your mind.

Whether you'll lead or will linger behind.

Whether you'll try for the goal that's afar.

Or just be contented to stay where you are.
