Life here has been eventful lately, but nothing out of the ordinary. We survived a week of constant throw up and lack of sleep. We are still recovering, but it's much better than a week ago or so. I am back to my schedule of working 2 to 3 days a week, the girls are back to their schedules and Mark, well...his schedule has never changed. Work, work, work. We have managed to squeeze in some time with good friends here and there, as well as frequent trips to our great church.

In his "spare" time, Mark has managed to work on our house a bit. I can't express to you how thrilled and exciting it is to watch this process. I can hardly stand it. Mark's crew probably think his wife is a bit nuts because she drags the kids out to the house pad and literally will just "hang" out. Sorry guys!

I have been in kind of a pathetic mood lately and although there are several things that can attribute to it, I am pretty sure it's my lack of sleep and lack of spending time in the Word. I (we) are so blessed. We are all healthy, have jobs that we love, are able to pay the bills and also manage to spend some time on occasion with our great family and friends. God really has blessed us.

Here is a picture from the garage trusses being put on today. Where is the house you ask? Well, I won't bore you with details, but Mark had to schedule truss delivery for our house with delivery of trusses for one of his jobs. So, the garage had to be first. Hopefully, the house isn't far behind it.

The girlies and I got to spend some time with the Vaughan's and Horne's this week to celebrate Lily's birthday. These kiddos are so cute together and we all had a great time (Mommy's included).

Loaded up and ready to go.

Nothing like starting them out young and teaching them how to shop.

Little bit of dancing

This rainbow followed us on our travels down the Siskiyou Summit. I know that we are always in God's hands, but nothing like a beautiful reminder.

The end of the rainbow

How can I possibly get mad?

Kinley was supposed to be in her room taking a nap. The house was quiet, it was lovely. I walked by the kitchen and caught something out of the corner of my eye. I had to take a double take. Instead of napping in her room, this is what I saw. I am slowly losing my battle with nap time. Kali is practically done and Kinley is working her way there. Ugh.
