Thank You Lord....

THANK YOU LORD ...
Lord, thank you for this sink of dirty dishes;
We have plenty of food to eat.
Thank you for this pile of dirty, stinky laundry;
We have plenty of nice clothes to wear.
And I would like to thank you, Lord, for those unmade beds;
They were so warm and comfortable last night.
I know that many have no bed.
My thanks to you, Lord, for this bathroom,
Complete with all the splattered mirrors, soggy, grimy towels and dirty lavatory;
They are so convenient.
Thank you for this finger-smudged refrigerator that needs defrosting so badly;
It has served us faithfully for many years.
It is full of cold drinks and enough leftovers for two or three meals.
Thank you, Lord, for this oven that absolutely must be cleaned today.
It has baked so many things over the years.
The whole family is grateful for that tall grass that needs mowing,
The lawn that needs raking;
We all enjoy the yard.
Thank you, Lord, even for that slamming screen door.
My kids are healthy and able to run and play.
Lord, the presence of all these chores awaiting me says
You have richly blessed my family.
I shall do them cheerfully and I shall do them gratefully.

After reading through this I have an entire different outlook on LiFe In general

Well it has been such a blessing getting to stay home with the kids. Jade has been SO wonderful to take on extra side JoBs so that I can be with the kids!

I think Tanis got a few pics of me going down the slide with LoUlOu:) I had a great time with the kids and TaNiS... We definately need to go out again soon! All the kids were so well behaved and TaNiS hit the JackPoT on the wheel of furtune:) WoW WhAt A DaY!!!!!

True Happiness

My Chillins!!!!

My Hubby

Well I have come to a conclusion......... I have to be grateful for what I do have and not dwell on the things i don't have!!!! The Lord has provided me with so many wonderful things in my life:) 1st My FaMiLy! Jade is the BeSt. He provides our little family with everything we need (and most of the things we just want) He does an amazing JoB at running our electrical company and Maintaining all of our real estate And never complains! He is such a Loving Father and Husband! My TaDeN is the best big brother. He might pick on LoULoU but nobody else better even try:) He is so good to his MoMMa I dont know what I would do without him!!! And My TaYcIe JoSePhInE....... She is soo FuN I love waking up every morning and hearing her say "Yous looks pretty Momma" whether I have put myself together for the day or not! My little FaMiLy means EVERYTHING to me. I know the lord has a plan for us adopting a baby I am just not very good at being patient.... 2nd having a home to live in... I am so excited to get our house built BUT for now I am going to enjoy the memories being made in our "little cottage". 3rd, My church calling. I am so grateful to be able to work with the primary presidency in the 4th ward. Everyone keeps saying "you are going to hate the ward you are moving into". I love the ward we are in but I know that we will like the ward we are going to be in. The lord has ways of taking us to the destinations he knows will be good for us. I am trying to remember to leave things in the lords hands that I can not change and to make best of the things I can. Well I am done rambling.

TrIsHa

Ughhh.....

I just got a call from Heart To Heart adoption agency and Megan told me that the medicaid in Utah is pretty much shut down for out of state birth mothers, which means it will be a longer wait...... Or more $$$$. I so want to bring our baby home soon and would love to have more money so that wasn't an issue BUT I cant and I don't...... We will continue to pray that our baby boy comes home soon but as for now we are going to continue "waiting":(.... There is an option to get a baby from out of state that would be on insurance for less than a baby in Utah without insurance... I talked with Jade and he said we should wait until we get our house built and things settled there. then we can sell our house we are in now and then we can add the money from our house to our "baby Fund"and not have to worry about taking out a loan for a baby(which wasn't what I wanted to do anyway). I want to pay whatever it will be and not have to be in bind so I can spoil all three of my kids instead of paying a payment each month. Well I am done rambling. Oh and if anyone runs across a money tree let me know:)

RaNdOm!.!.!.!

I was looking through all tha SaVeD pics on our computer and I thought I would post my FaVs!

I love my little family more than I could ever tell them! I love every minute I get with the Kids! As for Jade...... he is an amazing man I could not do what I do without his support! He suggested that I stay home with the kids instead of working full time SO this week is my first week being just a full time stay at HOME mom and WiFe! •°•Thank you So MUCH Jade•°•I am so ready to get our baby boy! I cant wait to welcome him home to our family! Sometimes it seems the adoption will never go through but then I get that warm feeling deep inside and I KNOW without a dought our waiting will be worth every minute! And as for now my baby boy is in good hands with the ones we have loved and lost, But will see again.

SuNDaY DrIvE

Jade and the Kids by the water.

Today we drove up logan canyon and to ToNyS GrOvE! we had a blast. first of all on the way up there we ran into a bunch of people on the side of the rode and they said they found a body of a woman and on the way back down the mountain we passed fox 13 news van and abc 2 news van. this makes me ill to know that that sort of thing happens around here. So other than the body in the canyon we had a wonderful time! We saw a few Deer. LouLou starting screaming and scared them away:) Just to get an idea of how much snow was up there we took a pic of a picnic table. Jade and Taden had their FiRsT SnOw BaLl FigHt of the year!

Roofing GrAnDmA MaRbLeS house!

This is a short story of our day at grandma Marbles house. All the cousins rode behind the four wheeler while the dads put a tin roof on GrAnDmAs house! It was a fun time. Who knew the SnOw sLeD would be so much fun in the dirt!?!?!?!?!

Getting back into the swing of things!

Well I am getting back into the blogging thing....:•) Now that I sorta know what I am doing its kinda fun. (Thanks TaNiS) Its really late tonight so tomorrow I will make a special effort to take the laptop to our shindig and upload a bunch of cute pics.
