Spring Break

For spring break Dedrick was able to take off of work. We went to Texas and Kansas to see his parents and see the new place where we are moving.

We spent two day Abilene-we went to the zoo to feed the animals. Dedrick's parents watched the kids so he could take me out to dinner for my birthday, Thank you! Then we went to a Rattlesnake Roundup, we saw snakes-skinned, measured, milked and eaten.

We spent two days in Ft.Worth-we were able to go to the zoo there, very very busy. Then we went to the Science Museum, also very very busy. The kids had fun doing hands on exhibits. We were able to see a cool movie called Animalopolis in a IMAX dome.

Then we left Texas, and head to Kansas to see the lay of the land. Show the kids where we are moving to in June. Then headed home. So much fun with the family.

Kaliska's 3rd Birthday

Happy Birthday to my sweet little girl. It is hard to believe she is three year old. We were able to spend her birthday in Texas and Kansas. She had fun hanging out with grandpa and grandma. Looking forward to the coming years! We LOVE U Kaliska!!!

Damian's Birthday

Today is my birthday, I get to hang out with family in Texas while the kids are on Spring Break. Birthdays are always a little odd, as I have been teased by all my friends and family for most of my life because of the strange circumstances surrounding my birth (full moon, Friday the 13th, etc. - how else would my mother Rosemary have named me Damian?). It still happens with new acquaintances and old friends today, but at least it lets me know they will never forget me!

Bed Time

Most kids are tired and go to bed with no trouble. This is my kids after snacks, bath, brushing teeth.

Do they look tired?

I Won!

You sometimes enter contest and never win, that would be me before I met my silly husband. Since I married, I won a few things over the years with his help. The end of last year I enter for a chance to win a Leapster 2 game system from the Wendy's kids meal. So you think there is no why you have a chance with the thousands entering. Right!(I did this all by myself)

I received an email telling me I won! I was shocked and stunned all at the same time. I received the leapster the other day. The kids are so happy. They each have there own, no more fighting.

Autism Meltdowns

My wonderful mother-inlaw sent this article to me. It helps to know I am not alone, I hope people can try to change what they think before they judge. (click title of post)
