New Love

I have a new love. Digi-scrapping! I've always enjoyed scrap-booking but with 3 little ones and all the STUFF that goes along with it, I've never had the time or space to do it without distractions. My favorite part of DS is that I can do it anywhere and everything I need is at my fingertips! And I love Sunshine Studio Scraps. I did my first "Speed Scrap" today and I'm very pleased with the result.



Also, they've got these great kits that you can purchase or possibly even win. Sometimes they even give things away for FREE! A new one at Sunshine is this ADORABLE winter kit!




Check it out and jump in the digi-scrap train with me!

Sweet Summertime

Well, summer is in full swing around here. Although, this last week it

may have been hard to tell by looking out the window, but it's here.

We've enjoyed numerous walks/bike rides.

So Big Guy needed his own bike. And he's doing awesome!

We've played at the playground

until we were all played out.

We've been swimming a couple times and...

my little Princess is growing, growing, growing!

Campaigning For Father's Day

I have submitted Matt in a Father's Day photo contest!  

All we need is a few voters.  

Now, if you know Matt you know that he is a won

derful father!  He has always done the kids' baths and does the bedtime routine many nights.  It's time that they cherish with him and most of the time, I need to tell the boys that bath time is over cause they would stay in there for over an hour playing with Matt if I let them.  He is always taking them for bike rides or to the park.  He takes them to the children's museum whenever he can.  Now, the deal is that we need voters.  You can register once for every email address you have and then each registration allows you to vote 5 times EVERYDAY!

What you need to do is click this link and then click "register" below the login.  Fill out the form and it will send a confimation email which you must go to and click on to confirm your email.  Then you can log in and start voting!  Feel free to register more than one email address and vote EVERYDAY!  Thanks for your support.  Oh yeah... we don't want to win.  We just want to get 2nd or 3rd so that we can get the $250 to Builder's Warehouse (like a Menards).  Matt would like a recliner but we have a lot of home improvement projects that he'd rather get done!

Tragedy

Last week, in my hometown, a 16 year old girl was killed in a car accident on her way to school.  She was the youngest of 3 children in this family and her two older brothers and her parents grieved the loss of this young girl.  Yesterday, tragedy struck this family again in the form of a car accident.  The two boys were driving and ran into a vehicle west of town.  The middle brother (19) was driving and his brother (21) was killed in the accident.  The parents were following them, although I'm not sure if they saw it.  I cannot imagine, as they grieve the loss of their daughter and sister, what facing another shocking tragedy like this will do the parents and remaining brother.  From the information I'm given, the brother that is left has had been very unstable in the past following a break-up and I'm not sure if him or his brother are/were Christians.  I'm pretty sure the young girl was.  I cannot imagine going through this without God.  Even as a Christian it would be near impossible to bear.  Please pray for this family.  They need every prayer they can get on their behalf.
