Wow its May!

I have so much to catch up to on here, by the end of my day I am so tired I don't feel like blogging... but if you have facebook I'm sure your following right along with me and my busy self!  Life just flys by, so you better grab on to whats important and share and make memories, with those who matter.

So whether your family reading this or someone passing thru... life is so short, before you know it you've missed out and theres no turning back, my kids are amazing, and so very smart and are so full of life...   Speaking of life...

This is the best month out of the whole year, every year. I get to celebrate my children.  I celebrate them every day and how, but I get to spoil them and celebrate another amazing year spent with them .  Most of you know how its done... Braydens birthday is May 1st and then Mya's is  the 17th.  We have already celebrated Bray's day...  He wanted cereal for breakfast and Red  Robin for dinner. I was so amazed with the manager at Red Robin.. she actually put on the costume just for Bray!! We did angry bird cupcakes as well :)     Mya hasnt decided just yet how she wants to spend her day... but in June we are having a pool party for them to celebrate with friends.

Here are a few pictures from Brays birthday...

Brayden and his best friend Silas and girlfriend Chloe


This years birthday gift was a TRAMPOLINE



Happy Birthday Lil Man.... Mommy loves you!!

Just a few days prior to his birthday, Brayden had a ceremony at school for Good Citizen... He was so very proud to have been chosen for this.  It takes great accomplishments to earn this reward at his school...


Mya's birthday is fast approaching and she will be 8! I can't wait to hear how she wants to spend her day. I am crossing my fingers that I will be 100% on the mend by then. Abdominal Surgery sucks... and I'm already so over the 4 day couch bend and feeling totally drugged up all day... but the pain meds are helping me .  I have amazing friends you know. I have dinners lined up for my family all week, and I have friends constantly checking in on me to make sure I am ok... I  even needed bread and fruit for lunches tomorrow and without asking my bff brought me bread, fruit and even breakfast for the kids  tomorrow... <3  I am so blessed to be surrounded by so many loving friends..  My sister in law Kelcey spent the day at the hospital with us Thursday and I'm sure that helped Mike through the day... otherwise he would have been a hot mess....lol

Friday morning I woke up to some beautiful flowers from my inlaws!


Love to all

First Day of Summer Vacation

First day of Summer Vacation...... and were off to the Park! We had a great day! We started off by playing on the playground, and then Mya found this awesome "tee-pe" that she just had to go play in, I didn't mind after I saw that it was pretty firm. So after inspecting and playing inside for a few we had some lunch :)




Now off to explore we go... First Brayden finds a snail, and he wasn't shy at all. He never went back in his shell, he hung around and was a very social snail.. Haha!

As we were walking the nature trail, we spotted 2 deer... I thought hmmmm wonder if they like bread?  ( normally when we would feed the deer we fed them carrots and apples) Well out of the 2 deer.. 1 really liked the bread, and you will see he was getting closer, and closer...





So Pretty

Chasing frogs is the thing to do.....

 



What better way to finish a 4 hour park adventure.  ICE CREAM~

Happy Birthday Mya & Brayden

Goodness time fly's by... It seems like just months ago the kids were babies.. Now I have a 7 and 4 year old... Goodness... where does the time go? 


This past weekend we celebrated our children with some family and friends. The kids wanted to have a pool party and invite there friends So we had the party at The Historic Powhatan Resort  in Williamsburg,VA    We stayed 2 nights and really enjoyed ourselves. Saturday was the party as well as a soccer game back in Newport News, so needless to say that was a hectic day!    The kids received wonderful gifts and Mya was overly excited about so many.

It's May Already!!

Oh wow!! I have been so busy and so much has been going on... I got in a rut for a bit and just wasn't in the mood to blog about what was going on, you know how that is family matters, and  medical issues ... So I am strong and have bought a few boxes of bandaids to help  heal my wounds.. its a work in progress .. But On to happy news :)

Lets see we have tons to talk about Autism Charity Event, March of Dimes, Brayden just turned 4, Soccer, Gymnastics... and Im sure the list will grow!!

  • April was Light it Blue for Autism! My SIL (sister in law)  Kelcey started organizing a Autism Charity Event to take place in New Kent which will take place May 15th. She needed a helping hand so I pitched in to help her gather items for the silent auction -( you can a few of our businesses who donated to this wonderful cause at there personal website) check  them out  Sew Fierce , The Lunch Punch, Soggy Bottom Baby Duds, Jenni G Photography,Easy lunch boxes, Rachels-Bowtique .  Also gathered a few cakes for the cake walk, as well as organize a chickfila cheesecake fundraiser all for the greater good of collecting money for Autism!  We did awesome at the cheesecake fundraiser, Mike actually sold 12 at work.. that was awesome!! We sold a total of 27 and made a profit of $135 for Autism just on the cheesecakes! YUM!!  

Lunch I made Mya for April 1st.. for the 1st day of Autism month!

  • Mya had a school project due.. for 1st grade... It was her market place.  Well the last part of it seeing as she had to make 100 items and we already did that... and some how she sold them all and we needed to make 25 more items so this is what we did to finish marketplace.

  • We had a visit from my dad... it had been a few months so he took 4 days off and came down to hang out.  "Pappy" brought them there own Pappy Easter Baskets...hahah early.. Tons of crafts! We also celebrated my dads bday while he was here :)


Easter......





  • Our second year doing M.O.D - now March for Babies . Our team did fantastic.  Mya and Brayden alone raised $815.00!      Mya's first grade class ( all 4 classes)  donated $450 to her MOD! How amazing is that!  The rest was earned via internet and standing at ACE Hardware on a Saturday asking for donations.


The actual walk took place on May 1st - Braydens Birthday
Our Team

Mya Brayden and Alyssa


  • After the walk we celebrated Braydens birthday by doing what he wanted... A visit to ToysRus, playing at the park, watching Rio and then finishing it with dinner at Red  Robin!!  I was pooped.... asleep by 9:30!  I kid you not!!



In between all of the above Tuesdays are Gymnastics and Thursdays are Soccer followed by soccer games on Saturday

They both seem  to really enjoy what they are doing.  This is Mya's 4th season at soccer and she  gets better and better every time!! 
Here's a few captured moments...



I just had to add our craft we did today.. I think it turned out awesome!!!   Its a watering can "jug"

OK I think I summed up everything :)   Are you caught up?
