Lately…..

The past few weeks have been pretty quite at our house. Its so nice getting to spend time with Danny, recently though our hands have been FULL. Redd had her puppies…..8 this time, last time she had 10 so I was kinda disappointed, but she did a wonderful job!!!!! All the babies are healthy as can be and so is momma!

Christian is doing good, he has been spending alot of time with Dannys parents, some time with Dana’s family and time with us before he has to go back home next month. I think he has grown a Foot since he got here! lol. I swear everytime I look at him he has grown, he is almost as tall as me! Him and Danny like to throw the football and its so relaxing to just watch them, when they don’t even know I’m looking. Christian loves doing things with his Daddy.

I havn’t been able to get a hold of Maddy and Bre but I hear they are doing great. I’m not sure how they’re “vacation” is going, but I did send them a letter last week, I really hope they got it. They will be home on August 2nd just in time for school! I bet they have grown a foot too!

Me and Danny went to the beach for the 4th, we had a blast, but I think Panama City is just way to crowded with young partying kids on holidays….needless to say, I wouldn’t take my kids to PC for a holliday. But me and Danny def. got burnt, 5 hours in the sun will do that to you! I will post pics soon.

The youth Conference is this weekend and me and Danny are Chaperones. We are sooooo excited to see how much these youth and ourselves grow to know the Lord more through this experience.

The past few weeks

Fathers day weekend we took the kids fishing…..

They had a blast and caught some pretty big catfish!!

Maddy’s birthday was a total success, she got a bike, a DS, games for her DS, money, clothes, hair things, lots and lots of good stuff…she said this was the best birthday ever!!!

I would like to talk about my relationship with Dana (Christians mom). I absolutely love Dana, don’t get me wrong, we have had our falling outs, but realized we were not thinking about the important part, Christian, we let the devil take hold of the situation for a second but then we prayed that Jesus would grab hold of it again, and that is what happened, Jesus has made me and Dana friends not only for Christians sake, but for our sake also, Dana is a blessing to have in my life, she encourages me even when she has no idea. She is a very strong and Beautiful woman and I feel blessed that she is in my life, but Dana and I are both Christians, therefore our relationship is “evenly yoked”. The bible tells us about this within a marriage, that a marriage that is “unevenly yoked” will not work, and I do believe that this is the case with any type of relationship we may have.

People take offense in bad situations thinking, “why does my life have to be like this? When is the devil gonna let go???” they don’t realize that they should consider it a blessing to be attacked by satan because that means he knows whos child you are. What a way to think about things huh? My wonderful husband taught me that. My husband is a smart man… God bless everyone and have a safe and wonderful 4^th of july!!!

Happy Fathers Day!

I would just like to take this time to say Happy Fathers Day to all the “Daddy’s” out there. anyone can be a father, but it takes a real man to be a daddy! I’m very thankful for my daddy, him and my mom divorced when I was a baby and left my dad to tend to 3 girls….any other man would have left, any man who wasn’t a real “daddy”. Your children are a blessing from God and if you choose to walk out of their lives, YOU are the one missing out! I learned that after looking back at how much my mom missed in my life, but we can’t take things back and if we could, would we take them back anyways? I had a mom who loved me unconditionaly, she wasn’t my “biological mother” but, SHE raised me. she did the day to day activities with me, she woke me up for school, she made sure I had supper on the table. yeah, I still visited my biological mom, but never had the mother daughter bond with her untill I was older, but being older doesn’t make it better, it makes you wiser! I am so thankful for everything that my daddy did for me in my life and I am thankful for my husband who without his patience, love, caring and thoughtfulness, I could make it…..but I don’t want to….I love him so much! and lets not foret this Father’s Day to be thankful to our..as Gloria would say it…”Big Daddy”, God! Thank you lord for these wonderful men in my life, who keep me a stronger woman but never make me show how strong I am. I can give my worries to the lord, my bills to my husband and my thoughts to my DADDY. Have a great Fathers Day!!

the Busy Bees still need time to rest…..

well…..its finally time to rest this weekend!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But, I thought I would stop by and share how are busy weekend was last week.

Danny’s project took off successfuly! Here is  a picture of him with Christian and Leonardo (from church), they helped him Saturday morning at the gym…..

There is still alot of work left to do and with no children this weekend, we will be at the gym first thing Saturday morning.

After the Gym it was time for the Church picnic. There was lots of great food and fun! the kids were trying to catch tadpoles in the pond….that didn’t work out so well though!! but all in all they had a good time, but they were extremely excited about what came next….Christians birthday party!!! they had a blast, we had his party at the Prattville Pool…here is a picture of the cake….

They did a wonderful job, I think! Christian was please as well! he got lots of cool things for his birthday, daddy and Shelly got him a bike, he got lots of outside toys, clothes and MONEY!!! who doesn’t love getting money?

We all had a blast swimming!

Bre had to show off her skills…lol We are so proud of her and she is so proud of herself….but stay back cause she thinks its funny to “make bubbles” if you know what i mean…lol

and of course, we had to take a goofy group shot….

We had a complete blast and we are so thankful that we are blessed with these special children, they are a blessing and we wouldn’t trade them for anything. Thank you Jesus!!!

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend, We will probably spend our weekend on the coosa!!! woo hoo!!!

Busy Bee’s

Just thought I would stop by and drop a few lines. My life has been really busy lately. I go to school Monday mornings then go to work. I go to school all day on Tuesdays and I go to school Wednesday mornings and then go to work and work all day Thursday and Friday. I am loving school! Its so exciting learning new things. Christian made it here safe and life for the Pitts family is back to PERFECT! Christians birthday party will be this weekend…..weekend? well its going to be a busy one, we have the church picnic, Christians birthday party and an Eatin meeting after church Sunday. This week is VBS so right after 5 everyday we have been at church all night. The kids are having a blast though and it is so rewarding!!! This is what life is about!! I’m really blessed that my school doesn’t take me away from my children at all! to them its the same as mommy going to work, and I do my homework after they go to sleep. my time I spend with them means the most! Me and Danny are doing great. We are so excited that we get to work together with the youth for VBS. we make the best team!! Fathers day will be coming soon and I can’t wait to show him how much he means to us. He is an awesome father to our children and didn’t have to be, Him and the girls chose this. anyways, I’m trying to plan something great for fathers day, so wish me luck!!

So Friday night our friends Jonathon and Michelle came over and we cooked out, we had a blast. Mary Gracen got to spend the night, which made the girls……soooooo excited…….

Saturday, we went to Anna’s Birthday Party….Kayla couldn’t go so we had to take the twins and our girls…..but we all had a blast!!! but by the end of the day, all of the kids were wore slap out!!!

Later that night we ate dinner with my mom, sister, brother-in-law and neices at chappy’s deli…

Sunday was pretty relaxing….we went to church and then we were on a mission to find the girls new shoes…..the hardest job ever because Maddy and Bre are the pickiest children in the world…but they finally found what they were looking for. I think they did a good job….
