Workin Momma!

I am a working momma!!!
Yes....you say aren't we all?

Yeppers....but I have officially been employed since summer. It feels good and crazy all at the same time. It was something that Randi and Lisa had come up with as they cant always be at the studio. So...I get to be when they are not. I work 4 days a week while Beau is there in class. It has been a win win for us all. I have really loved it...but it also has been a struggle. You know when you have NO clean whites (we all know what I mean) then I am in trouble! Being to tired to do this when I get home does happen. Working has done this to me. Some days are better then others for sure. But all in all its been great. Never having to find a babysitter to work is a huge plus and it has helped immensely with dance and preschool tuition. Trade is a fabulous thing. I truly love the ladies that I get to work with. They are all so amazing. I have found life long friends. A bonus is that I truly love my sister in law and love seeing her on a daily basis...almost anyway. So you ask what it is that I do....sit at the front desk, answer phones, make copies, organize and clean the store...basically whatever it is that needs to be done. Today I was running preschool book fair and had to call 2 mothers because of barfing children. The joys.

So all in all this is part of the reason I got so behind with blogging. Excuses excuses right?!

The Barnes family is always so great to have people over and in this case it was us. We are so extremely lucky to have them in our life. They are so gracious and giving.

I love you people. Thanks so much for the fun night.

I am so lucky to have such rocking fabulous nieces that love me!! They are ALWAYS so good to me. They may be pulling my leg but it feel so good. Love you girls and thank you for the Oh So Kind Cup!

I told them I would keep it forever and ever....I will be an old wrinkly lady still drinking out of it!

They made every one a cup at dinner. Beaus was TANK Robbies was EDWARD CULLEN Brittyn was PRETTY BRITTY and T was T-rrrrent

Life Changes

 To all my dear friends....so much love and support has been shown to T and I as we have had such a huge decision to make. I deeply appreciate it from the bottom of my heart. I feel so blessed to have so many people in our lives that care about us. T and I and our kids....each one of them. I have felt so much love from people I never knew really cared. Unreal.

For those who are unsure of what I am talking about her it is.

Trent was given an amazing job opportunity a few weeks ago....but it is in Oklahoma City. Blah...I know! Who wants to live there really?!

After tossing with this for almost 2 weeks with lots of tears and headaches it was time to make a decision.

We are staying put!!!

Even though the job would have given him so much needed things with employment and room to grow, we just felt that is was to darn far away from our families. Everything our kids know is right here. Such a hard call but we both feel it was the right one. Just to many people and things to miss.....
