Never Judge a Book By It's Cover

Chris sent me a link yesterday to watch this video on Youtube and I was absolutely  in tears by the end.  As a people we are always so quick to judge others and put them down.  What an incredible job this woman did and I truthfully have watched this about 15 times and I'm sure that's not the last.  I have no doubt this woman's life will change forever because of this.

Wyatt Earp




Each year the 4th graders get to do a Wax Museum at school and Zach decided to be Wyatt Earp.  We got the outfit together and he learned his lines.  They had each made a paper button for their desk and we had to press the button for them to talk.  Zach did a great job and was very much in character.  

Easter Egg Hunt and Movie




We are so lucky to live where we do, we have great neighbors, and a great location.  Every year our neighborhood does a easter egg hunt for the kids, but this year they did it in the evening which was fun for the kids (Chloe seriously hit the jack pot and filled her bucket up) Zach and Kyle did well themselves.  After they got their yummy candy filled eggs we pulled out all of our sleeping bags and pillows and they showed an easter show and then the movie Bolt afterwards. Sydney watched with her friends as well but didn't hang with the little kids (it's a teenager thing) While they watched the movie Chris and I and the Moore's sat on the front lawn and had a nice candlelight dinner and enjoyed good company.  I love raising my kids here, we are truly lucky.

Happy Anniversary to Us!


I just wanted to let Chris know how much I love him!  We've been married for 15 years now and it's been a great life and I look forward to more.  Chris is a great husband, dad and provider for our family and I'm so grateful for him.  It was so fun this morning, my mom came over for piano with some gifts from her and my sister, thank you so much for doing that!  You are so thoughtful and it made our day.  I truly do have the best mom and sister in the world!    Happy Anniversary Chris, I love you!
