Shooting with Daddy


Brandon was practicing bow hunting and Ella decided she wanted to try also. She enjoyed it and Brandon thought it was great. Anyway, things have been busy with us. I have finished my last final of my program. I graduate next week and am still looking for a job. We have been enjoying the great weather outside. Hope your week is going well:)

Picnic at Chester Frost Park





Today, we went to Chester Frost park for a picnic. The weather was nice but windy. The girls wanted to get their feet in the water. There were kids there swimming in the water! Way too cold! Considering the girls have never been to the beach, this was huge! Our friends the Butcher boys kept going out further and the girls thought they could follow. Their dad had to get them to come back so the girls wouldn't get their pants wet:)

Pics from our playtime





We love the play area at the mall! We took our friend Amanda with us to play!

Are you there God, It's me Jennifer

So the last few days have been crazy.. I took a 5 hour comprehensive assessment test to determine if i could actually graduate from the university. This is different from the Praxis test. Let me back up. On Thursday, Ella woke up with a 102 degree fever and throwing up. She wanted to be held all day which meant Lily did too. As i stripped the sheets and put her in the bath tub Lily decided she needed to get in too. After getting them out, Ella crying b/c she was cold, Lily then proceeded to pee on the floor. Figures! That's what i was thinking. Are you kidding me?! I have less than 24 hours to take this test... did i mention that i typed 13 pages for this. Not multiple choice kiddos... and here i had a child sick. My thoughts were "Hey God, are you there, can you give me a break? Really, it was probably the devil at work.. I had to be at school at 8:00 for the test and i was up with Ella for most of the night Thursday night!! Hey all in a day's work for a mom, right? Anyways, crisis averted, test taken and completed. Lily did get sick too but she's all better. The world goes on and so do we.

P.S. NKOTB is reuniting. I am psyched!!!!
