2 GREAT Days!!

Yesterday was Sunday...it was a gorgeous day outside, my husband and I took Gabriel for a nice long walk.  We ventured in to a couple old abandoned houses and took the liberty of going inside and looking around..probably pretty neat places when they were livable.  Afterwards we took a joy ride on the bike, it has been a while for me, forgot how much I loved it!  I jokingly said that I wanted to learn how to drive it myself, and guess what...I learned!!  It's so typical of him to make things happen :)..he is such a "doer."  It's a good balance, because I don't always make things happen, I am always thinking of obstacles even before the task begins, no matter what it may be.  *^-^* (shameful)  So, I was super excited to finally ride the bike by myself..it was a lot of fun, looking forward to my next lesson when I can go faster :).  A little later, after lunch, he had supervision at school, so we went over and I played some basketball..fun fun!!  
Sunday evening we went into the next town over just to get out of the area for a little bit, and I randomly said.."let's go to goodwill"...we never go there, but I saw it and said it..jokingly, but of course..he made it happen :).  We actually found two espresso cups there, which I have been looking for, so that was awesome...we got two of them for ONE WHOLE DOLLAR...can't beat that!! We finally came home and watched the movie "Jumping the Broom," it was decent.  The acting could have been a whole lot better, but HEY...it kept me entertained for a few hours.  We raced back to the redbox at 8:55 to return the movie by 9, and...WE MADE IT!! yay!!


Today was my very first day of Cosmetology school.  Only a few people know I am even going, but I guess now it's kind of out there!  I am super excited, I think it is going to be lots of fun, but also hard work.  The school is an awesome school, and the teacher I have seems really great.  I am trying to be outgoing and make friends with everyone, but there will always be one or two people who just won't like me, and I am ok with that, I just really want this to be a good experience!  I am really looking forward to learning all these new things that I don't know.  I am so happy that I am finally working towards an actual goal now.  We will see where God takes me, but for now I am excited about where I am.  


Cheers to TWO days in a row of awesomeness!!

The Questions...

Do we choose to let our past define our future?  How do we live for today?  How do we find peace when we are living in fear?  Should we embrace change or run from it?  Those heartaches... how do we heal?  Where do we turn?  Is anyone on our side?  Will we ever survive these trials, these battles, these valleys?  How do we get back up? Questions that everyone will ask themselves at some point in their journey through life.  Who do you run to?  Who do you trust?  Where do you find your hope?  Family, friends, neighbors, preachers, teachers, counselors, social media, alcohol, drugs?  I think we have all fallen and crawled to the path of least resistance only to find ourselves in more despair.  The "easy" way out isn't always so. We must be broken.  We must be shattered.  We must be torn.  We must be shaken.  We must be molded. The only place to find true peace, true love, true happiness, true jo...

my intentions:)

Once again, I am writing in hopes to encourage myself to be a little more intentional about keeping up with this little blog I started 6 years ago.   In my short journey with the twins and G, I have searched the internet for any and all advice, info, reviews, and help in the form of blogs, forums, and videos.  There is plenty of all of that out there, but to my dismay I haven't found a lot of what I have been searching for.  My hopes in writing about our family's experiences and opinions, is that another mom or family with similar dynamics as ours will find it helpful.  I may not attract anyone here, and that's fine too.  I really just want to be able to look back in a few years and be able to smile about the journey.   A few things I hope to blog about are: Postpartum blues Marriage with infant twins and a 3 yr old Breastfeeding Twins Domestic travel with infant twins & 3 yr old International travel with twins & 3 yr old A day in t...
