2009 First Day of School

It's that time of year again, the kids have all started back to school. This is quite the crazy year. I have 3 kids all in 3 different schools who all have to be dropped off and picked up at different times! I have to admit I wasn't ready for them to go back but I sure am glad to have a routine to our days again!!!


Marissa's school starts at 7:30 and she is at the middle school, yikes! She is doing pretty well with the new wake-up time and enjoys getting home a little earlier in the day!


Makayla was very ready for 2nd grade! She is so excited to have her best friend with her in her class and couldn't wait to start the day!

Finally the day came that little Miss Myah got to start preschool. She was very excited!!! Although I kept saying that Mommy will be sad and what will I do while she is gone, so one day she said, "Mommy I don't want to go to school, I don't want you to be sad," so I decided maybe I better stop saying that. She had her first day and had a great time!!!! She has the same preschool teacher that the other two girls had!
























So you may wonder what is Sheila doing while the girls are in school, well let me just tell you this, there are only a couple of hours a day that I actually have with out any kids and those two hours go really fast! Yesterday I had Bible Study today I am catching up on the blog and trying to pay bills, nothing too fun around here!
I love that I am able to stay at home. I feel very blessed that Jeremy works so hard so that I can do that!! I realize not everyone is able to stay at home, and that is okay, but for me this is right where I am suppose to be and I am very grateful!

first day pics! so much fun! we decided to keep hannah in preK this year and not push for kindergarten. she's right on that august line and it will probably be better if she's the oldest one in her class rather than youngest. i don't think I would have been ready for all day kindergarten this year anyway! yikes. next year will be hard for mommy. your girls are getting all grown up! one day we really do have to meet up again! take care and miss you guys!!

From our home to yours....

Welcome to our home at Christmas. When I heard that Boomama was going to be having a Christmas Tour of Homes , I thought that sounded like so much fun because so many of our family and friends aren't able to make it out to visit us during the Christmas season. So here are a few pictures of our home decorated for Christmas. As you walk in our front door we have this little tree sitting in our entry way As you can see I really like snowman! This is leading into the family room... This tree is in our family room and it is decorated with all of our family ornaments. Each year we buy the girls an ornament that represents something from the year for that child. It is a tradition that I have continued from my childhood. My favorite ornaments are the ones that are homemade by the girls! This is our big tree that is more formally decorated and is in our living room. This is our third year with an artificial tree which is definitely less messy but we have had lots of fun with the pre-lite l

1 Year Later

Just the other day I was looking back at some of my posts and realized that I started our family blog 1 year ago this month. I can't believe it has already been a year. My first post was about celebrating the 4th of July at Mark and Jane's. On Friday we will be heading out to Mark and Jane's for another great 4th with our friends. I have really enjoyed keeping up with our family blog. I hope that you have also enjoyed reading each of my posts. My main reason for doing this blog was to keep in touch with our friends and family through various postings. I know that there are many of you who at one point or another have said to me that you have read our blog, I am just curious who is out there and reading this. So....in honor of our 1 year anniversary if you are reading this....please leave us a comment letting us know.
