Finally!!

We have a new house!! It has been a long process to get to this point. Our lease is up on the house we are renting on June 30th and we really didn't want to rent anymore, the house is great and the kids love going to the beach all the time but it's not ours. We started looking in March and found one the was great on 2 acres and 4 bedrooms but it was a short sale and they said it would take 45-60 days to hear from the banks if they had accepted our offer but we had time so we went ahead with it and we were so excited about it. Well 60 days went by and they said it could take up to 12 more weeks!!! WHAT? So we decided to look again and I am glad we did because we found a beautiful 4 bedroom on a little over an acre that we love!! It had been way out of our price range when we searched earlier but they lowered the price a couple of days before we started looking again, YEAH!! It needs landscaping but we loved it more than the first house so we made an offer and we will close on June 22nd. We cannot wait!

One Lucky Girl

I just want everyone to know how amazing my Mom is!! She is always there for me and my sister no matter what we might need, she is a shoulder to cry on even if it's over the phone:) She is the first person I call when something exciting happens or if something not so good is going on. She is ever giving of her time, money, and self. She is the one who tells me how to make beans in the pressure cooker and reassures me it will not explode:) I love my mom and all she is and all she does. Not only is she the best Mom she is also my Best friend!! I love you, Mom.








Anyone who knows my Mother-n-law knows I am a very lucky girl. This wonderful lady has broke the mold in the mother-n-law department. Sorry ladies I got the best!! I am so grateful to her for raising the most wonderful son. She has the best sense of humor and is truly a gift from above. I am so happy she is my Friend.

Just what I wanted

This is my early Mothers Day present and I LOVE it!!! Our old one went out, oh to bad:)

SPRING.......

And my husband was wondering why we have so many dandylions in the field?

*Addiction*

These are my new sewing addiction. Twirly skirts! My girls love dresses and they love these because they twirl far out when you spin.

Catch up!

It's been awhile since I last posted and I'm not sure why? I'm always reading about everyone on their blogs but I never post on mine so I'm copying a friend (Deborah) and I'm going to try and post everyday for a month straight!! The girls just finished up with their second session of swimming and are getting really good, after this next session they can start little piranhas which is a little swim team. They are loving it as am I it is just craziness on Tuesdays and Thursdays nights and we are all running around trying to get dinner and people ready for bed and with homework and all the mayhem!! Jack is growing big and still not caring about the whole talking thing. I don't know what is about our kids they have always rolled over really early, sat up between 4 and 5 months and walked at 10 months but talking nope not interested until about 3 ugh!! He is into the whole hitting his sisters now and thinks it is hilarious especially when they go running and screaming away from him. Boys are so different!
We found a house we liked and put an offer in on it, the sellers accepted our offer but it is a short sale and the banks still have to look over some things we should know soon if we get it. It is in Seabeck, WA about 30 minutes from where we live know. I love it it's blue and has 4 bedrooms(YEAH) my girls won't have to share anymore and my life will be a little less dramatic. It has 2.3 acres and a big stream in the far back with fish in it, which makes me excited the only thing is the name if the steam is BIG BEEF STREAM come on how gross is that BIG BEEF? We might have to think of something else, it does make me smile every time I say it though. Sam is still loving his job, he gets to work on submarines all day and all the fun things that go along with them. Sam and a friend from our ward are going to climb Mt. Rainer in June and he is so excited about that I'm a little jealous but lets face it I would never make it up that thing alive.
My parents came down over the girls spring break and it was really great to have them here. My mom and I went on a murder mystery dinner cruise around the Seattle harbor, we really had a good time. While they were here they bought me a sewing machine and let me tell ya I love it. I am on this twirly skirt kick. I have never really used a sewing machine before but man it is addicting, I want to thank Kacy for posting the twirly skirt on her blog and telling me where it get the pattern because I am having so much fun. My girls are going to end up with so many skirts!! Well I guess that is all for know, man now I have to think of something to post tomorrow:(
