Long Time

Well, I am still alive. I have not been on here since gosh knows when i think before the summer. I have been busy...... I am going to try and start getting on here more at least once a week would be a little better than none. I will fill you in with the short verison and a few pictures. Kids went to texas for the month of June Colton turned 6, July we went to Hilton Head and little things in between....

Here we are in Hilton Head walking to get our pictures taking. That was a joke....I am glad that i took all the pictures and did not get someone professional to do them since my kids were not having a good day.
Here are the kittys sitting pretty i think this is the best shot that i got. We did have a blast...i think we are going to try and go every summer to the same place its a really great location.

Wordless Wednesday

Updates on the Family!

Update on the hammer and smith world. I really want to get on my blog more I think about it a lot and think of things that I would want to write about but then I get busy doing something else and it’s gone. That vision any ways. I am actually sitting here think what was it I was going to say to everyone so I guess I will just jump around on the events that are going on and they may not be in order but some how they are in an order to my brain.

Well josh has started doing a side job of moon jump deliveries it has its perks but it can be real time consuming and with gas the price it is I almost wonder if we are not losing more than we are gaining but for the time being it is working for us. He is 26 today. But I think he acts like a 50 year old whiner. (Not that I am against 50 year olds that’s just what I am guessing.) I love old men!! HEEHEE!!

Okay anyways, the girls just had a pageant and ended up taking all. I could not be more happier. Plus it has been a great experience for my older daughter she has always been on the shy low self esteem side and this has really brought her out of her shell. Amiee is now Georgia State Our Little Miss and Kaycie is Georgia State Baby Petite. Here is a picture of them with the group of ladies that won and pervious royalty.


Now as you know we are of to world. I know I talk about pageants a lot but its kind of the “big” thing in the house at the moment. I try to keep it to minimum but it’s hard because there is so much going on. I have been going to fundraisers almost every weekend trying to lower the cost and we have been practicing and trying dresses and it has been a whirl wind but great experience.

School is out in 3 days. The kids are really excited. Yes, they all passed. Colton actually took a test and got one of the highest scores in his class/grade. We are extremely happy!!
Nothing else really going on with the boys. They are jealous that there sisters are doing so much but I keep explaining that they were just in soccer and then there sister were not doing anything. But that really does not matter to them to much.

Quentin did get his cast off as you can see in t he picture. But they are keeping him in a splint for at least 2 weeks so we have one more week to go.

Well last but not least Josh received a great raise today at his work. Well to him it was not the best but any penny is a happy penny in my book. I will take them all.

Oh yeah, I GOT A PROMOTION. Effective June 30th!!!!!! Yupeeeee!!! Well I am happy but I will let you know how happy I am June 2nd when we find out what my raise will be. And that pretty much sums up what all is going on here in the GA. Just getting ready for the summer and saving for our huge trip in July. Hope that I have keep ya’lls attention some what. Thanks for coming by and checking up on me and the familia.

Miss Independent

We had a birthday party on Sunday to go to at the skating rink. Josh really was not up to going so I decided to take the kids. Thinking that Kaycie was going to be a hand full I made sure that I had plenty of snacks and things for her to do.
As I am getting the kids there skates I was asked if she wanted to skate as well. I though no she is two. Well then the worker advised me that they have training skates for the younger ones. I thought alright why not let her give it a shoot. She strapped them on and I picked her up. She slowly scooted across the carpet to get to the rink. Then I got her out there. She had no fear on her. I walked around the rink one time and she told me bye. She started scooting on her own, I was really amazed. So I stood there for a few minutes and she came back around. (Technically it was like 30 because it took awhile for her to get around the floor) She told me bye again and I left the floor and she just keep going around, ever now and then she would pause and look to make sure that I was looking but that was it. Fell once and I came running but she keep saying “mom I fine” “I fine!” So I snapped a picture and let her on her way. My baby thinks she is Miss. Independent now. Time sure does fly.
