Change is good!

Ever feel like you just needed a change? Something just needs to be different? That is where I am right now. Things have been a little stressful at work and home and just about every place in my life for the last couple months (or longer) and I am just tired...of where I am, of who I have become,  So I did something a little drastic today and their is no turning back...or at least until it grows out  :)

my hair this morning...

and this evening (don't let the smirk fool you, I LOVE IT!!!)

For those of you know part, or even all, of what has been going on in our crazy world, thank you for letting me loose it a few times.  I appreciate it.  Right now we are trying to figure out what direction we should be traveling in and could use some prayers for patience and guidance which is a tough thing to ask and wait for!

Here's to a new tomorrow!!  Who knows what I will come up with then!!!!!  :)

10 years already?!?!

Can you believe it has been 10 years since we graduated?!  We can't!!  Just look at how far we have come and how much we have changed in those years...

We met up with classmates on Saturday at Lincoln Park to BBQ.  It was a hot but we had a blast!  There were 12 class mates which is a third of our class...yes a third.  I would say that is pretty good considering we don't know where a third is and the other third was unable to attend or out of state/country!  It was fun to watch our next generation run around and play together!

Our Little Rockstar

Oscar turned 2 in June and we celebrated in our favorite way, by hosting a BBQ and spending the day with some of our favorite people!! We are fortunate to have both sides of our families close and able to travel (unfortunately, due to health issues, Daren’s grandparents were not able to be with us that day).

Here are some pictures from that day:

Oscar and my grandma Brandmire (his great-grandma) actually share a birthday…which she loves!

Oscar and my cousin Matthew (I love this picture!)

We're blogging...ok maybe just me

I have finally decided to take the plunge and join the blogging world! Hopefully you will find it witty and amusing (just like me!). It will also be a great way for those of you not close physically, to keep up with my crazy little family and with Oscar who is constantly changing. If nothing else, you can sit and enjoy my pictures!
