UPDATE!!!!

An update is very much needed its been a very busy couple of weeks! Since the last time I've posted on here The kiddos have been doing so good. They play a lot and have so much fun in everything they do... 3 saturdays ago they went to the build and grow with their dad while I stayed and helped prepare for the Team Aftermath annual Thanksgiving Dinner. It was such fun to have everyone together



Sometime next week the kiddos and I went to the park and they love it. They ride their scooters since its not far from where we live


As the week comes to an end we always look forward to the second saturdays of the months because that means we are on our way to the build and grow event at Lowe's the kids love it. They love building the projects and are excited to see the ending results they got to build santa's sleigh and it was so exciting to see their happy faces.


We go to church every sunday and its nice I like it a lot. The kids are having problems with the daycare/ sunday school... Gabriel cries a lot and it breaks my heart to just walk away the teacher tells me later that he is doing great I think he just has a problem watching me walk away since I have never done that before. And Dominic is doing great in sunday school he says he likes it a lot but he gets a lil sad when he has to leave us.

Thanksgiving was good. We ate a lot the boys played football and it was fun we missed our families but sometime in the future we will be able to celebrate with them. Also our niece was born on Thanksgiving so we had a lot more to be thankful for
she is BEAUTIFUL JUST LIKE HER MOTHER !!!!!


I went black friday shopping while my babes stayed at home with the kids. It was really crowded and there even was an incident with the police that made nationwide news. I got most of the kids presents and dont need to get a lot more done. We went this past saturday to the mall with friends we took the kids to dave and busters for lunch and Dominic and daddy went ice skating and Gabriel and I went and played on the arcade because Gabriel wasn't old enough to ice skate which was a bummer but we still had fun that is all for now.



thanks for reading!!!!

this weekend

This weekend was great! on friday we went to a car meet... My hubby is in a car club its called Team Aftermath... we joined the car club about a year ago its full of great people... We have met some great friends in the car club... We went to the meet and it turned out great... It was at Culver's they have great ice cream... On Saturday we took the kids to breakfast at Dennys




they had a lot of fun and their bellies were full. Then after breakfast we went to get the car washed the boys had so much fun helping daddy clean the car...


Then we went to get the kiddos haircuts. It was Dominic's last day with his curls... I almost backed out but it was his decision and we respected it.
BEFORE:

AFTER:
He looks more grown up. Gabriel doesn't like getting haircuts but he looks adorable with his short hair

BEFORE:

AFTER:
After haircuts we went back home for a little while and then we decided to go with friends to Chuck E Cheese * where a kid can be a kid* and they had lots of fun but i was kinda bummed cuz I forgot my camera at home! so no pictures for that (sad face ). Then we came home and the kiddos fell asleep quick from having so much fun! On Sunday our friends invited us to go to church with them and we did and we liked the church and the people we are thinking of going next Sunday again.
After church we headed out for lunch and then to the mall and got the kids some clothes. I love spending time with my family its a blessing everyday to have my hubby and our kids in my life. They are a great joy and a true blessing. I thank God every day for my family. I made this post long and its night time going to go to bed thank you for reading. Good Night!

New at this

This is my first post... I am new at this... I decided to start a blog so family and friends can see how our family is doing. Well we are in Arizona where its hot almost all year round... it has finally started to cool down. It is 81 degrees here right now and it is nice we have been living in 90 degree weather and up it is just way too hot for me... But now its cooler and the kids can play outside longer. Halloween just passed and Dominic was Iron Man this year. He picked his own costume. Gabriel was a ninja. We took them out trick or treating and they had so much fun... Russell is doing good. He is working and when he comes home the kids miss him so much they jump all over him and want to play with dad. Me well I am doing good taking care of my family, enjoying every minute of watching our kids grow up and not missing a minute of every little thing they do... I miss living in Washington and miss seeing Russell's side of the family. Wish we could fly over there whenever we wanted. I miss my family too... haven't seen them in months... But we should be going over there soon... Well I guess this is it for right now... I'll update more later :)

hope you enjoyed reading
