New Move ... New Adventures!!

New Move was in store again for us. Bryon has another fantastic opportunity and for those who know him its hard to pass them. We moved to Boston, Nov. 5th. What can I say besides there is A LOT of history here. I home was built about 100 years ago but its amazing to see all the details it still holds. The girls ofcourse are loving every minute of it. They recently started their new school. Before it was Alex and Tia together now its Bella and Alex together. They attend Green Meadow and Fowler. So far, they are loving every minute of it and have made some friends. I am home with the little miss who ofcourse loves the fact that she can boss me around the whole time. :) We have yet to make it into Boston to visit Bryon's restaurant but we hope to this weekend!! Maybe even do some duck tours, I heard they are fun!! For now, I shall keep more on top of my blog and continue with unpacking .. lots of fun!!

4 Girls

I definitely know God gave me what I can handle. Despite the drama that sometimes can be overwelming, my girls are just so loving, and sweet. Im not saying boys are not fun as well, but after dealing with so many at work. I don't know if I have the patience to have 4 of them. Boys are definitely more active and get into so much more. Not saying all boys, but most boys. I saw this lady come in today with 5 boys and all I can think about is YEP Im done :)

Adriana has grown so fast and I can't believe she is potty trained and talks like she is 5 or 6 already. She is definitely her own person and can be what I call THE BOSS.. its her way or the highway for sure. Then we have Bella, my independent girl who doesn't mind playing alone, tends to be the one left out yet seeks the attention of most. She is goofy and wild but just loves to hug and snuggle. She loves her daddy so much and jus tloves to sneak into my bed early in the morning and sleep the last hour with him . He ofcourse loves it while I get pushed off the bed :).. Alex.. well she is the one everyone loves to have around. Happy go lucky, funny, easy going and overall an overachiever. She is good at all she does and if she isn't strives to be better.. Gotta love that persistence in her!! Victoria, my mini mama, can be moody ((age for sure), yet so sweet to her baby sister. She tends to lean on Alex for playtime and to boss around but loves to just relax with her sisters and watch a good ole movie. Victoria is a daddy's girl as well and looks up to him for approval which she always gets ..
Time sure has gone by me so quickly and I wish I could freeze it to enjoy these last few years of innoncence. I fear what is ahead but I pray with the lords guidance that we will get through it with a breeze!!
Thank you lord for my blessed life and my family!! I am truly blessed!!

Fourth of July

Fourth of July -- 2009

This would be the first Fourth of July without my older girls Victoria and Alex. Its weird and sad to say the least. I don't think I have missed a holiday with these girls since they were born. I just missed Victoria's 10th birthday day.. and that was hard but as time passes I seem to feel more empty without my girls. We did our best to keep busy this day and plan something fun for the other girls to enjoy. We didn't do our norm of popping our own fireworks but we did go over to some new friends of mine The Mechtels who have been very warm and welcoming to my family.

So we went over to the Mechtels actually their neighbors who pop their own fireworks (the illegal kind). Awesome show!! Didn't have a camera to take pics but great night. THank you to them and to their neighbors. Next year.. the show shall be at my house!!

Girls Leaving Today

Today is going to be a sad day for us but a great day for the girls. They are leaving to go with their grandparents up north to visit their great grandfather for the first time. They are sooo excited and Im sad. I will definitely miss the drama, smiles, hugs, kisses and just the overall presence of my girls. but they need time with their grandparents and vice versa. I hope and pray that they get all the memories I had as a child. We will meet up with them in a few days and get to meet Bryon's grandfather for the first time. First times are always fun and scary at the same time. Here goes nothing!! Bella is not too sure about being apart from me for 2 nights but I think she will be fine as soon as she is there!! Love you girls

Victoria's 10th Birthday Party

After careful consideration we decided to throw Victoria's party at my work place... well really the gym and pool area. I was skeptical because honestly I didn't know what to expect. At first things got off to a slow start but eventually it all turned for the better. We played scooter races, musical chairs, hula hoops, bounce house and even spent some time in the pool. Overall her party was a success. I can not believe she will turn 10 soon and soon enough a teenager. Time sure has passed us by too quickly!! I love you Victoria and I hope you always know this in your heart!!
