A whole lot of something!!

It has been a long time since I last posted, and don't have a lot of pictures to share because every time we go somewhere I mean to take the camera, but.........it is always at home when I need it.


We took Maria to the airport last Tuesday. We went to Columbus on Monday night and spent the night at Grandpa and Grandma Hunsakers. We had a really good time and I did remember my camera. I got it out to take a few pictures and realized that I had forgot to grab the memory card off the computer desk, soooo......


We had a good time Monday night with family then little sleep and off to the airport to watch her leave us for Guatemala. Tears were flowing, but I know that she is doing what God wants her to do with her life, and no matter what we want, she will only be happy in the center of God's will, and I am happy for her. I have added a link to her blog, so feel free to check it out.


On Saturday night we headed out for a family night starting at the Olive Garden ( because I had a coupon) then the mall and then we were going to meet my parents, Uncle Roger and his wife for a game of Putt Putt, well to make a long story shorter, we did not make it in time for the game, but we were going to let the kids play on some of the blow up activities they have. We were waiting on a train, Austin was wound up tight and playing as normal and reached over toward Emilee and somewhere along the line unfastened his car seat. Austin and the car sear hit the floor of the van upside down. I got out to get him and fix his car seat, Jason had already got him out and was checking him over, and we realized that he didn't just hit the floor, but the little metal hook that comes out of the floor that attaches the console to the floor. He had a BIG egg on his forehead and a nasty bruise immediately. To say the least our family night was ruined, and we have come to the realization that if one of our children is going to get hurt, it is going to be Austin. I am beginning to wonder if anything should really surprise me. He is better, he still has a nasty looking bruise, but is going to be fine.

I thought I would post a few pictures of my little angels, while they were being angels!!! Thank you Maria for Emilee's jumper, it looks really nice!!

Emilee's Birthday!!!

This picture is of Emilee from her 3rd B-day!!! It's hard to believe that she looks so much older this Birthday. My time flies.
This is her 4th Birthday and we had her party on Sunday with just our parents!! She got quite a few clothes and some toys. She picked out this Princess cake. She couldn't wait to eat some too!!!She is opening her dress from Rachel.....and....making sure it fits!!!We took the kids to the zoo, and they had a lot of fun. Their favorite part was the horses and getting to ride them all by themselves!!!!
Daddy did walk beside Austin just to make sure he wouldn't fall off.

They got to pet the goats and liked it, until one jumped on Emilee and then the tears started flowing.

Getting a drink out of the lion's mouth.

As you can tell feeding the ducks and fish was our next favorite part. They had a lot of fun watching all the fish fight over the food.

We rode the train and went through a tunnel and that was really neat too!!! (BTW sunglasses do nothing for the hair)


Later we ate as she calls it "chips and cheese" Mexican. She was sung to and had the hat put on her head, and then she was nice and shared with her brother!!!

Garage Sales and Haircuts

This is one of my goodies that I bought at a garage sale. I love it!!! It has a candle in it and it looks even better with it burning.

Here is my little man with his new haircut. Jason always has to tell Melissa (the lady that cuts their hair) what he wants, so he asked me before they left how I wanted it. I said that I didn't care, but that I still wanted to be able to comb the top, well....I can barely even get it combed over. Jason said that he saw it getting shorter and shorter, but that he thought it looked cute. I think he looks cute too, even though I probably would have left it a tad longer.

Sorry, but once again he would not look!
Because of getting the lamp post, I had to do some rearranging, so Emilee's room did some changing too. She really likes it, so that is all that matters.

They have to play at the counter while Mommy fixes meals!!!

Emilee loves to help me in the kitchen, so here she is making brownies.....
and Austin is just watching and getting in sisters way, and loving it!!!
