IT'S A TOUGH ECONOMY

So because of this tough economy Courteney has been trying hard to find a job that just isn't out there so she has been doing odd jobs here and there...
Ask any one of my girls, they will tell you, that I always ask them to do things for me, for a dollar, well I hardly ever pay but I know Courteney needs money so to make it a little interesting, I dared her to do something for $20.00.


Yes, folks that is creamer from Angies. She down two of them for Twenty bucks and this time, I did pay...

I must say, that has to be one of the fastest ways to earn money.

THREE BEAUTIFUL GIRLS...WOMEN.

Okay so it has been awhile since I posted anything there really hasn't been much to talk about. This week has been a little rough for me, for obvious reasons. But I've been sort of under the radar with everyone and everything. So I just barely read Kirst's and Courte's blogs (that were posted a few days ago) and even though all I have done this week is cry I still had some cry in me. My girls are the best, all three of them. I have no idea what I did to deserve any of them but I got the three best girls in the world. Yeah they can be selfish and thoughtless at times but I know that they don't mean to hurt anyone. That is just part of being a teenage girl. Times like that were rare at our house and I am thankful for that. They are two of the most loving, caring women now. Really how many teenagers would spend every single weekend at the hospital with their little sister while she was getting a blood transfusion, not just that, but she was asleep a majority of the time she probably wouldn't have noticed if they were there or not, but they were always there...

I am so glad they understand the importance of family and good friends.

I have a hard time expressing how I feel about them most of the time, but a mom couldn't be proud of these three.

Kirsten, my little analytical, is always so determined, there are only a few things in this world that she wanted and didn't get. She works so hard for everything...

Courteney, my little free spirit, I used to worry about Courte but not anymore she found her way and is making such good choices. I am very proud of her and glad she is growing up...

Spenser, my little angel, she is so brave and strong and always said what was on her mind. She touched so many people in her ten years...

The last 24 years or so have been amazing and I wouldn't trade my life with anyone. I am very pleased to have been apart of each and every moment in these three lives. I love them all very much.

Todd's 44th birthday!

This is how we celebrated Todd's 44th, at work as usual, but with lots of friends.

You have to love the cake! This picture was also photo copied and put on just about every surface in the building. You gotta love the 'stache and the mullet.
