Spring Soccer

The oldest two decided they wanted to try out soccer this spring. #2 only wanted to do it because he could be on his Sister's team.  He made it through the season, and although #1 begged to play again, he definitely did not want to.  So I guess it will be her thing for a while. And that's okay too.

Their coach was a great guy, but he pushed them VERY hard!

Love of Animals

I have always had a love for animals, and it seems that my kids do as well. I may not love "owning" animals sometimes, but I have always loved looking at them and watching them interact.  I already have one child who claims she wants to be a vet and she has stuck with the idea for 5 years now. We will see what happens when she is faced with sick animals!

These pictures are from the San Antonio Zoo and from our church Easter "Petting Zoo".

Family Photo Shoot

I love finding people with the talent of taking family photos for me. I won a family photo shoot at the young woman auction this year, and we had a blast getting these shots! I must say that I have some cute and crazy kids!

Oh the fun drama that girls bring!

The boys finally stopped finding sticks and sword fighting to get a picture

I'm so lucky to have found the love of my life!

I am so grateful to have a forever family!  I never knew that being a mom would be such a crazy hard job, but I'm thankful for the opportunity to do my best.  I wouldn't trade it for the world!
