Wow

Man I can't believe Emma is seven now and in a week Cole will be four. Where have the years gone? I am really sad that my little baby is growing up. I told him the other day that he is my baby and he clearly stated, "No Mommy I am a big boy." Aww that makes me sad. For their birthdays this year we decided that we wouldn't have a party because they both wanted a big item.

So Emma chose a tv for her room. She wanted a flat screen. No we are not putting cable in her room. But it will be nice when she wants to watch a kid movie and we are watching tv we can just send her to her room to watch it. Sometimes kid movies just are too much after a while.

Cole chose a John Deere Gator. Oh he is excited. His birthday is still a week away, but he got it early. My mom and brother went in with us to get his gator. Since Carter leaves us tomorrow to go out of the country we decided he could have it early so Uncle Car Car could see him drive it. Man are they having a blast outside with it today. Especially since it is seventy degrees outside. They have been out there since one. Hopefully they will sleep well tonight.

Speaking of being outside. We moved in November and we are loving our new house. We have finally gotten every room settled. We believe anyways. The garage is still a work in progress. We had our garage sale last weekend so hopefully we will be able to finish the garage off really quickly. Then we will be done. Josh mowed the yard today. Wow what a backyard we have. We are excited that we are going to be able to have some good times in the backyard that we will soon be able to call ours! YEAH! This summer is going to be a blast!

We have been really busy with work, especially since now I have a second job. That is ok though. It is helping be able to fund the toys that everyone wants. So that we can also live. Josh had a girl make it to state this year with all state band. She is extremely excited, but that means we will be traveling out of town for it. Thought I had the kids taken care of, but comes to find out my dad will be in town for that time. Guess depending on what happens with them, will depend on where my children go while we go out of town to San Antonio. One day the state will change where they host TMEA. I hope anyways!

Then two weeks later, I have to travel to Austin for a conference. Man, we have an extremely busy February. Hopefully life will slow down after that.

Speaking of my dad, I really need some prayers for him. He isn't the same man that we sent out of the country last summer! We are sad. Hopefully one day we will get our old dad back. I really miss that man! So please say some prayers for him.

Hope everyone has a great year coming up. We are ready for summer and to be able to enjoy our new house.
