Oregon Trip

This is me and my Aunt Sandy.

This is right before we left to come home.

I am almost back to normal from our trip to Oregon. I love it down there. It is the one place I can go to and relax and enjoy just doing nothing with my family. I am still mentally down there but physically here. Its a tough life but I do it!

My Thoughts

Like a little child we are taught things little by little. There are things that I won't teach Tyler right now because it is not beneficial to him right now. There are things like teaching him to crawl or try new foods that are helpful to his growth at this time. However, I wouldn't give him car keys and teach him to drive because he needs to learn how to read and decipher numbers, depth perception and other necessities to helping him drive around the block.
As it is with us, there are things that we need to learn little by little. Over time when we have learned more then we are entrusted with more knowledge and responsibilities. If we decide that we know all we need to, the only person we stop is ourselves. Others can encourage and show the path but we need to be open and willing to learn more. There are always good and bad. We have to decide what is right and what makes us better people. That is the challenge.

1930's Wife Test

43 As a 1930s wife, I am Average Take the test!

hello everyone

I like to put pictures up on every post but since I am the one taking the pictures, the only ones I have right now are of little man. I do want to brag about my husband though.
I worked very early this morning and got off early enough to have lunch with all the men in my life, Karl, Tyler and my dad. It was fun. I came home and took a nap with Tyler and then when Karl got home he took me out to dinner, Red Robin, and then we went on a drive to find the best tasting breakfast treat in the tiny world I live in, Krispy Kreme!!!!!! Then we came home and my little man Tyler fell asleep on me. It was a wonderful night.

My new haircut

This is the first time I have had my haircut this short since tenth grade in high school. That was a long LONG time ago. Its short but it will grow out and Tyler likes to pull on it too.I don't mind the length so much now but when I first got it cut it was a hard thing to deal with.

Slow but steady

I'm still trying to get thru all the boxes. I try to at least unpack one box per day but some days are very busy. Yesterday we got the girls from Debbie and then came home for enough time for me to race out the door to go to a baby shower for my friend Amber. I've known her since my family moved up her from Oregon. Thats many moons in case you were wondering. Then I came back and hung out with the chicklets at home and then met my sister at my parents house. We hung out there for awhile and then went out partying with Sunny and James and the kids. It was fun to be all together.

Hey all

So we have moved into our new apartment. I loved living at my parents house and having them so close, but it is also nice to have my own kitchen again. I made dinner for the first time tonight. The past few nights we have been rummaging thru our stuff so its been a hit and miss as to what we find in the boxes. I did try to label the boxes the best I could but some stuff just got mixed up.
I tried to look for a picture to put on here but I couldn't find anything that would have anything to do with this...oh well.
