We're moving...again :(

Hello again. Sorry again that it has been a while since I was on blogger. I wanted to let everyone know that for the next month, we will be in the process of moving to another town in Oklahoma. For my safety, I am not going to disclose where it is, but I will tell you that it is one hour away from where we live right now. It is MUCH cheaper to live in this little town that we are moving to, and I hope that we can get back on our feet while living there. We both have been praying about what to do, and we both feel that this move is what we should do. So I won't be on blogger very much for the next month. Then after that I am REALLY going to TRY to be on blogger regularly again.
On a sad note, there is a sister from the panhandle of Oklahoma that was in a car accident and died the next day. She was either a teenager or early 20s. I think she was a teen. It is so sad, so please remember her family and friends in your prayers. Her name was Charity.
I am also getting ready to be an auntie again. Melissa is due in just a few days. She has asked me to be with her in her delivery, which is such an honor to me. I'm nervous and excited at the same time. So please keep her in your prayers also. I will make it a point to post a picture of her baby (more than likely on her blog), as soon as possible.
Until next time, I hope everyone is doing well :)

Another wedding on the way!

Last night, I just heard some wonderful news for my family, my nephew, Shane proposed to his girlfriend, Courtney, on Valentines Day. It is sooo funny because earlier yesterday, I was talking to my daughter, Taylor and I said, "It wouldn't surprise me if Bubba (Shane's nickname) asked Courtney to marry him." And then later found out my feeling was correct! That was a little weird! He recently moved to western Oklahoma, where Courtney is from. He moved to a SMALL town, but at LEAST half of the town is brethren. Unfortunately the town is around 3 1/2 hours away from here, so we won't get to see him as much as we want to. But anyway, it sounds like the wedding date will be May 30th. I am VERY excited!!! I just had to shard my good news!

Valentines Day

I hope everyone had a nice Valentines Day!!! My husband is in Colorado at the moment, but I still got a present from him, he's so sweet! Thank you Ryan!
As for our trip to Colorado, me and the kids are probably leaving this Friday. We don't know if we will get to go to Oregon, it is a possibility, but we can't say if we are going to go for sure. (I sure do hope so!!!)

New family pictures

Hello everyone! I'm back, again. I'm so terribly sorry about not being on in quite a while. But, this time it wasn't my fault. It was my computer's fault. I wasn't even able to get on Blogger. I would go to the sign in page, and it would freeze up. It did that for me for several weeks. Finally I attempted to go to it again, and somehow, it let me in. But... when I went to leave comments, it then wouldn't let me leave comments. So I went on to Internet Explorer and tried to leave comments, and it worked. So it will take me a little while to leave comments on everyone's blogs, but I will definately be working on getting caught up :)

The latest happenings in our lives is: We have had a very mild winter, up until last week, we had an ice storm, and had sleet/snow on top of the ice, so the roads were not so good. But that has since then melted and we are back to normal here. We got family pictures taken where I work, so I got a great discount :) They turned out nice! My mom is finally coming to visit me, she will be here on Wednesday (2/4) and will leave the following Wednesday (2/11). And Ryan is going to Colorado on Tuesday, 2/10. Then me and the kids will be joining him in Colorado a couple weeks later. We are going to be spending time in Delta/Montrose area, Grand Junction area, and Denver area. I'm looking forward to this trip. Unfortunately, we are not heading up to Montana or Oregon :( Sorry to disappoint everyone. We just don't have the money to go up there. I do hope that this year sometime, we will make it up there. I just don't know yet. Time will tell.
Again, I will be leaving comments on everyone's blogs, but it may take me a couple days, because I'm WAY behind again. Until then, hope everyone is doing well :)
This is a portrait collage that we do at my studioI love my little family!We will celebrate out 10th anniversary on May 1st

computer trials

Hi, this is Chantel Julie's sister in law, and she has asked me to let everyone know that she is having computer issues once again and is unable to access her blog to make new posts. As soon as the problem is remedied, she will be back on and making new posts.
