Gratitude.

This house we decided to build seems to be coming along. We made some major changes on the plan and are so much happier with what the end result will be. It was just too much house and too much! for us, so we had to make some hard decisions that were really good decisions, but decision that affected a lot of people. So come back later and I will take some more pictures when they get started up again:) THIS time on our real dream house.

 This little lady is my buddy while EZ and Miss Blue are at school. Obviously, she loves all things girl and Frozen. We actually have 2 Frozen cd's in the car along with the Frozen story that they read to you. Good times, friends. I mean who wouldn't want to listen to that every 15 minute, one way drive that I do a total of 6 times a day to pick up from various schools. But the happiness on her face is what it is all about.

 The funny story is that we ran a mile fun run as a family. It was one of those crazy Saturdays complete with rain for the run. Bluebird took of strong and finished on her own. Ez and I held hands and finished strong and B-rad took Lola across the finish line. I had to race to a soccer game and B-rad and the other two stayed for the raffle because Chloe was convinced we would win something. So they waited for about 45 minutes. That was a good decision. Lola was honored as the  youngest runner and got a huge melissa and Doug art set complete with easel and all the extras. She kept talking about how "they all clapped for me". And then we won 2 other prizes. Brad gave the cheese basket prize to a young couple because he said he felt embarassed taking so much. So I think a Red Ribbon Run tradition has begun.

 Ez had a great soccer season. The best part was during the last game his sweet coach positioned the players to help EZ score a goal. And he did score that goal. It was perfect!

 And these three...I am so blessed to get to be their mom. I love them so so very much.
