Our life

We just wanted you all to know that we are well. I know that I haven't written very much lately. As most of you know Travis is in school and taking two classes this semester. It has been quite an adjustment for me not having him at home at night on Mondays and Wednesdays. I am so glade that we are able to have this opportunity. So I found myself getting frustrated that my kids don't clean up after them self's very well. So I made a chart. it involves chores and doing an act of kindness. well Abby told me last night that she wanted to get up early and make breakfast in the morning. when i got up she had made toast for everyone and set the table I was shocked it was a big nice surprise. well i know it is too early to say that this will keep going, but it was very cool. Jamie is doing pretty well with potty training and i am so glad that she is starting to finally get it. Braydon is pulling him self up to stand and loves to crawl and get in too everything they are so much fun i love watching them grow!! I am still loving working my Mary Kay business, I find it so much fun to see people feel better about them selfs. over all we are happy and trying to keep life simple. that is all for now. i will try not to let so much time pass before i write again.

I know it is January, I am slow, but here is Christmas. it was alot of fun and we got to spent the whole time as a family we woke up at about 6:00am and went up stairs. we got all the kids one big or semi expansive thing and a few little things. so Abigail got a madame Alexander doll Jamie got a toy kitchen and braydon got a orange cover for the high chair. that is what was from us Travis's mom Sue she always goes over board with gifts so this year i have to say i am so proud and thank full for how much she didn't buy ( yet it was still to much) Then we went over to my mom and dad house where we got to see some family on the computer and also in person and talk to the others that were not there. it was very cool it was so nice to just relax. mom made a great breakfast (thanks mom)the kids got some cool clothes and a book form there buddies and Travis and I got a cool picture frame and wooden saying it has the coolest saying"All because to people fell in love" I love it thank Cameron and Sarah it was a great time.
