To stay or to move...

To stay or to move is the question?? Is it my ability to not be content or is it what we need to do? You see the boys are in a different school district than where we live so we have to pay for out of district fees which are not to bad but it makes me sick to have to pay it! The school is worth it don't get me wrong because we tried the county school where we live and lets just say it was horrible and we weren't willing to risk another year! I can tell you this we have moved a lot I think every two years since we've been married we started out renting and the buying and remodeling which I couldn't stand but the hubs loved! It is growing on me the idea of another remodel especially with all the older historical houses in town. So I am up for it this time and it does help that the boys are all old enough to understand and stay out of stuff! When we moved here we bought a smaller house than what we were in before so it has been a challenge we are busting at the seems to say the least! So to give you and idea of what I'm working with I'll show you some pics that is if I can find them! Plus any ideas would help should I start projects that I'm wanting to do or wait since we want to move possibly??? The hubs seems to think that I can't be content with what I have currently but he is up for the move also due to school situation! To help you understand the hubs point of view since we've been married in 2000 we then proceeded to have our first son in 2002, and then our middle son in 2004, and our caboose in 2006....We would have loved to have more but my body gave out on me so since then I've had baby fever pretty bad it comes and goes but I would love to in the near future! We actually considered adopting before we had our third son but learned or certain restrictions so we were put on hold. I'll explain in the next post!! Have to go I've got a sick boy at home so I'm limited on my time!

Emerson's Preschool Pic's
























I'm Back........

Okay so in the scheme of things I am not a good blogger although it interests me so, but I can't seem to find the time to sit and catch up! Most days I do good to process the day let alone blog about it! A lot has happened since the last time I've posted mainly daily tasks that come with having three boys but the weather has been insane we've had several snow storms this year and for Alabama that's strange but more recently we've had horrible tornadoes here in our county and state...Which happen to be more common the snow storms but they were the worst tornadoes for our state since I think they said like over forty or fifty years ago! In total over 238 people lives were lost on April 27th and I'd like to take this time to pray for them and to continue to remember them!The damage and destruction breaks my heart and brings tears to my eyes to see, even with a lot of debris removed its sad to see, but the strength of our town has been such a blessing! Then to make things more interesting I had surgery the day of the tornadoes so we were separated from the boys so that was stressful but my mom took them to my mother and father-in-law's house for safety. We were at UAB on the seventh floor when they started calling code grey, CODE GREY that means oh CRAP!! The tornado that ripped through Tuscaloosa was headed for us and so they wheel me out in the hall, hospital bed and all!! To say the least it was interesting! Emerson's school was the only one damaged but all Cullman County schools were out for I think eight days! Wow wasn't prepared for that I thought i would have time to recover at home from surgery while the boys were in school but in the end all went well with the help of my mom and Scott's Maw Maw and his parents who came to save my sanity and the boys!!
