We are still here...
We made it back from our wonderful trip out west. I have so much to say and several pictures. I hope to be able to post them soon. Life has been a little crazy around here lately. Hopefully I will get to posting sometime this weekend. Also, as I posted earlier, Josie had an eye procedure done a few weeks ago and it was unsuccessful. It was not the fault of the doctor just a really inflamed membrane that needs to be cleaned out again. So..Monday Scott, Josie and myself will be heading to Jasper Memorial Hospital for another procedure. Please pray for our family and especially Josie. This time she will be put under anethesia so at least she will not feel the pain like the last procedure. Have a wonderful weekend. Until next time...

Finally Free...
Well, I should be packing for our trip out West, but I have decided to blog instead.
It has been awhile since I posted, so I will try to catch you up.
A few weeks ago Emma spent the night with her Aunt Lacy and 4 of her cousins. She had a wonderful time, but came home sick on Saturday morning. She was complaining of feeling sick to her stomach. After Emma arrived home she went into the bathroom and vomited. Apparently the problem was she had engorged herself with to much CHOCOLATE. Can you imagine eating so much chocolate that you throw up?
Last Saturday my mom and I took the girls to Lark Ranch and let them pick out their pumpkins, or should I say let Emma pick out the pumpkins for her and Josie. We had a great time. Emma loved riding the ponies and going on a hayride. I only wanted to spend about an hour there and ended up spending about 4. Oh well, it was great to be able to spend some much needed time with my girls.
Lastly, I need to post about my little sweetheart, Josie. Josie had a minor eye procedure done yesterday. Both of my girls were born with clogged tear ducts. I know what are the odds. Anyway, the procedure consists of (hope this doesn't get to graphic) sticking a metal rod through the corner of the eye and down through the nose to open the membrane. This is also done without any kind of anesthetic, just a little topical ointment. I know sounds painful and by the looks of my daughter yesterday it was! The doctor ask me to leave not just the office but the building. Yah, they scream that loud. When I finally got to go in and get her she had bloody tears and blood coming out her nose. Anyway, she is doing fine now and looks like a "new women".
I will leave you with a few pictures from Lark Ranch. I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Here are 6 "random" facts about me. I think everyone probably knows everything about me because I am kind of a tell it like it is, no point in hiding things.
I used to be OCD until I had 2 children.
I have a passion for "saving the world".
I suffered from post-partum depression with my daughter Emma. I thank God everyday I survived.
I always knew I wanted to be a mom, but never saw myself having children. That's why I had 2 unexpected pregnancies.
I made a pact with myself when Emma was about 1 week old to read to her everyday/night. Emma is now 31/2 and I have only missed 5-6 days. Pretty good I think!
I am TERRIFIED of storms and staying home by myself at night.
