Those three words... "I LOVE YOU"

Dont come easy... from me that is. I have always struggled to tell the ones I love those three little words. I think it is because when I was a child my mother and father never told me they loved me. I never heard those words unless I was hurt or scared and that was rare. So I make it a point to tell my children all the time that I love them. As well as that special someone in my life.. I am really working on this one. But making good progress...

'I love you' means that I accept you for the person that you are, and that I do not wish to change you into someone else. It means that I will love you and stand by you even through the worst of times. It means loving you when you're in a bad mood or too tired to do things I want to do. It means loving you when you're down, not just when you're fun to be with. I love you means that I know your deepest secrets and do not judge you for them, asking in return only that you do not judge me for mine. It means that I care enough to fight for what we have and that I love you enough not to let go. It means thinking of you, dreaming of you, wanting and needing you constantly, hoping you feel the same way for me.

Pumpkin Patch Fun..

I told you to be on the lookout for these pictures.. Here are the ones from the pumpkin patch of the girls and yea some of me, not many though. :X Cause it is hard to take the pic and be in the pic.. LOL But I manage to get a few. The girls had a great time... That is all that matters to me. It felt weird to be there alone with the girls this year considering its a tradition for us to go every year. BUT I better get used to it. :) Here are some photos... Enjoy!

Emily and I...


Natalie and I...


Hannah and I...


My three silly pumpkins.. hehe


Love getting them walking hand in hand :)


So that is all I have for now.. I have more but I am tired and dont wanna upload anymore. I am just thankful that I took them. I wasnt going too.

I am off to clean up after dinner and get things ready for tomorrow and relax I think. Goodnight all!!

Just another day in paradise... :)

Today has been a great day, considering I didnt get much sleep but it was WELL worth it. :) I am in a good mood and I am happy, for once. I feel good about things going on in my life. A little stressed about a few things but nonetheless I am happy.

I have decided to take my girls to the pumpkin patch today... I wasnt going to take them but I know I will regret it. We go every year and they enjoy it soooo much. So I am waiting for their halloween shirts to dry and then I am going to get Hannah from school early and we are off to Wheatland to Bishops Pumpkin Patch to get some photos and have a good time. So be on the lookout for some pictures. :)

Then when we leave I am going to the grocery store to get stuff for dinner. I am making chicken enchiladas. I havent had those in FOREVER! My favorite. I might be having Steve over for dinner too. So we shall see if the night goes well..

I am off to check on my laundry so I can get my day underway!!! TTFN!

PS- be ready for some pics a little later.

Really tired kids...

My kiddos had a VERY busy weekend .. Thurs, Fri and Sat nights they were with my Dad and stepmom helping get ready for this BIG garage sale. Sat and Sun was the garage sale and we were all up early and going ALLLL day and the girls were going all day playing in the dirt and were filthy from head to toe but MAN do they enjoy being out there with free rein to run. :) Makes me happy too. Sunday the same thing, up early and going ALLLL day. Needless to say mom was exhausted from working almost all night then coming home to sleep a few hours to be up early for the yard sale. BUT it was worth it, I made good money.

So the girls I brought home last night and bathed and man I think they had half the dirt from my dads house on them and the tub looked brown. lol hahaha I gave them a nice hot and long shower and then put them to bed and they were out like a light within minutes... Here is the proof. :)

Hannah fast asleep mins after her head hit the pillow.



Emily didnt waste anytime falling asleep either..


And Natalie my thumbsucker.. fast asleep too.

xoxoxo Need I say more?!?!

I have the sweetest boyfriend ever... He thinks about me all the time and leaves me the sweetest notes and roses. What did I do to deserve such a loving and caring man. He truly came into my life when I thought everyone else was walking out. He has helped me through soooo much and still to this day is my ROCK... He brings me up when I am feeling down. He makes me smile when all I want to do is frown. With one look he can make me smile. I love him for that. He has been so patient and understanding and helpful I wouldnt know what to do without his friendship. I think I have found my new "best friend" He fits the role of a best friend to a tee. There isnt anything he wouldnt do for me or my girls. He was right there beside me in a heartbeat at my court date. He helped me move, and that was a chore. He has been right there to mend my girls boo boo's when they have gotten hurt, He has never complained. He listens to me when I need someone to talk to about all this drama. He never takes sides nor does he put me down, he will offer helpful advice and I appreciate it. It is a great feeling to have someone care for you and actually mean it. I know I am weird blogging and posting pictures but it is something to look back on and remember. :)~

A note and a rose he left for me one day... what a pleasant surprise.


Some more roses and a sweet card.. :)


Another view of the beautiful roses..

My first blog

Its Sunday.. Which means back to the school schedule and getting the girls up and out the door. Being a single mom of three sure is challenging but I manage and I do my best. I sometimes miss the help but wouldnt go back to living that way for anything.

It is almost Halloween .. WOW! Time is flying. The girls got the costumes today, they went with daddy and he got them costumes. I am taking them to the pumpkin patch probably tomorrow just to be able to get some photos and have a good time with them. I dont want to miss it this year. But yea it is tough when times are tough to get out the door... and do fun things. I am barely keeping myself afloat right now.

I am loving my new apartment. It is small and cozy. It will work. Although my neighbors are a pain in the ass and loud but oh well that is apt. living. At its best. LOL Well I am extremely tired and need to get to bed. So nighty night!!!
