Updates

The past two weeks have been so crazy busy. We had some friends in town for a week. We went up to Kittery Maine to the outlet malls, went down to Plymouth. That was fun can't wait to go back when it's not so chilly out. Caleb turned 7, we went to Friendly's (restaurant/ice cream place). The boys really have got into building with their Lincoln Logs so Caleb got 2 sets of them and a scooter/razor. Then we celebrated Brian's birthday at home with his favorite meal -- Chicken Alfredo. This weekend I turned 35, wow what a difference 10 years makes. I remember being so upset turning 25, having lost my first baby. Now I have 5 wonderful children. God truly blessed us.
For Mother's day, I told Brian and the boys that I wanted to go take some pictures. I don't have any of all them together. So we went to Walden Pond (about 2 miles from the house). Walden Pond was made famous but Henry David Thoreau. He had a 1 room house there in the 1840's. So we hiked around and got some new pictures. The girls even walked most the way; towards the end they had had enough and Brian had to carry them.

It sounds like you live in a beautiful place! The pictures are great. I can't believe how long your hair is! I don't ever remember it being that long. The girls are so cute! They all are, but just seeing the girls get bigger and seeing them turn into little girls are so cute!

Mission Statement


I would like our home to be clutter-free, inviting and peaceful. My goal is to decide which tasks I need to do or delegate each day so we can maintain a better, more organized lifestyle. My goals also include providing an environment where my children can learn to be productive and Godly people. I want my family and others to know that this house is one where they can be free to live simply, love deeply and laugh abundantly. I want to be able to invite friends over without having to clean up for three days beforehand.
