....Decorate the tree

December is here!!!

November flew by and with it came moving, sickness, hospitals, turkey, test that I don't care to do again, birthday, parties. Even though a lot of it was bad, I can say at least I got to experience it with my family. There are some people that have to go through that kind of month by themselves, and I am very thankful I have a full house to share it with.

So now looking ahead at things to come in December. We will hopefully be closing on our house, then closing on building a new one. I am excited at the opportunity to build a house. It will definitely give me something to take pictures, and blog about so we can look back on. The only thing holding us back right now, is the loan going through to purchase our current house. Tiffany has packed and packed, and is mostly down to stuff that will have to wait to pack until we are ready to be gone from the house. For the months while building we will be staying at her grandparents. So hopefully we can get a good winter, and the process goes quickly cause I don't want to put a strain on relationships. No matter how close you are it's tough to live with someone, anyone that has done it knows what I am talking about.

I am also excited for Christmas (as always) and Tiffany's birthday. There is a lot of stuff coming in Dec so it will most likely fly by as well, but I can't wait to look back and see what has happened and changed from this post. Just remember to slow down and look at the lights, and take in some new experiences with your family.

move on....

....Celebrate

Yesterday was mine and Tiffany's 13th Wedding Anniversary. I love her more and more with every year that passes. This year has been really crazy, and we have had to lean upon one another more then ever, but I feel we have built a great foundation to make our structure strong.
We had so much jammed packed into this weekend that we didn't get to celebrate a whole lot, but we still made time to with thanks to Mom for watching the boys to enjoy a nice meal together and enjoy each other company. I want to set a good example for my boys that no matter how busy your life can be you still make time for the one that you gave a commitment to. I love you Tiffany.

Hawaii here we come ;-)....

....Get a Wife

One of best thing that has ever happen to me is Tiffany. If your newly getting married you always have plenty of people saying why would you want to do that for, or you're in trouble now. I wonder why, because I see my marriage as being what has help me through things that if I was on my own I would have felt like I had no one on my side. Now for the ones saying them things to couples are saying, well marriage isn't all that it's crack up to be, but I disagree. Marriage is as exciting as any roller coaster ride at Kings Island. Maybe if you feel different then you're in a marriage where both participants aren't wanting the same thing out of marriage. It's not an entitlement, it's a blessing to be able to share with that person. Not every moment is going to be great for it's the valleys that makes us appreciate the beauty of the peaks.

Tiffany has been the one that has watched me do stupid stuff that she knew wasn't going to work, and laughs when I act crazy. But has always been there to give me an honest opinion, not just what I want to hear. We balance each other out as long as we talk. I know there is still things we could do better, things that will come up we can't foresee. That's what on down the road makes us look back, and as long as we have strive to work on them things makes us love each other more then where we are now. Again I hope to be an encouragement to ones getting married cause they shouldn't just hear the negative. We need more of the positives ones to speak up to let them know that if they work at it you can be that person. Like Tiffany is for me.

Thanks for everything Tiffany. I love my Wife....

....My Chipmunks

I love my boys. Here is why we refer to them as our chipmunks.

Hunter aka Simon...
The boy is a genius, even though sometimes his smarts get him into trouble.
He loves to learn new things all the time.



Layne aka Alvin...
Uh huh you guessed it. The mischievous one. He can be so sweet and innocent, while still trying to think of what he can get into that would be so much fun.



Holden aka Theodore....
For now he is our cuddlier. He loves to be hugged and just know someone is close.


They all are rotten in their own little way but I love that they have their own thing.

... Go Crazy

Has it seriously been over a year. I just need to jot down random nothing ness. So I was rereading some of my old post and noticed in one I said I was going to post pictures of our dog and forgot. Now we have 2 dogs because Ramzey needed a friend so along came Ruby. There is the 2 of them in there Christmas outfits. :)



On to other things. Wow, has things this year been completely crazy. I can't believe next week is March already in ways I'm happy, because I hate cold weather and I get tried of snow after like 1 day of having it. It's also sad because I feel like I might have missed some amazing days that have flown bye that I could have done something with my family. So Instead of letting it be a blur and go into this craziness, just because I keep wishing summer was here. I need to enjoy even the nasty winter days.

Until next time....
hopefully not a year..
