Masons First Communion

Mason looking handsome

It is a tradition that the children along side of Father Mark let off balloons after mass.

Really not sure why it is so difficult for me to keep up with this blog!! Oh that's right 4 Busy Kids, working and just everyday life. However I am back and going to try to keep this up.

We celebrated Mason's First Communion in May, and it was such a great day. The weather was beautiful as was Father Marks Mass. Such a special day for Mason!!

HAPPY EASTER

I have been slacking again on this blog.

We had a Wonderful Easter. We went to 9AM Mass at our church, and my Mother-in-Law hosted a fabulous Easter lunch at her house. Every year she also puts on a Easter Egg Hunt for the kids. I was pleased we it actually turned out to be a nice day!

St Patricks day recap

St Patricks day also happens to be Calebs Birthday. We all dressed in our Green and headed to Chuck-E-Cheese (such a lovely place) with a couple of Caleb's friends to celebrate. The good thing was 1. IT was a week day. 2. It was St Patricks day so I think most were out drinking green beer. AND 3. We got there before 5 and gone by 7!! Caleb and his buds had a blast and that is all that matters!!

Having my boys take a break from the Wii for a pic with mom.

Caleb and his new motor scooter.

Now he will be able to keep up with Mason.

Sick AGAIN and Snow day AGAIN

Our HAPPY Family...minus our Two Crazy Cats that were off lounging.

Dad and BIRTHDAY Boy!

My & Izzy...So glad I bought her that Michigan Onsie...even though her dad is a die hard State Fan...lol!!

The CAKE and CUPCAKES were Great..filled with Bavarian Cream SOOO YUMMY. IF you live in our area check out Cupcake Creations in Coopersville!

Mason read all of Calebs Cards, the twins were really into this.

Lisa & Izabella, I was so happy for all that came in their Michigan Gear!!

My Rug Rats!!

Mom even got to "Rock a Michigan Tattoo"..and those dang things are NOT easy to get off.

Seriously I am about ready to throw in the towel on this state and pack up to Florida. Such a tease we had with Sun, Warmer Temps, ALL the snow melting...to BAM another winter snow storm..this time for us more Ice then Snow...but still NOT Spring!!

Regardless of the CRAP weather life has been busy. I had a great time at the Moms Sale, meet some nice people, got rid of some of the kids clothes and made some money in the process...can not beat that!!

We also celebrated Caleb turning 6!! Caleb is my "Sports Fanatic"...and he is VERY loyal to his MICHIGAN Team. So when asked what he would like his Birthday Theme to be (because we ALL need a birthday theme) it was a NO brainer MICHIGAN it was. Now Caleb is a St Patty Day Baby...so on his actual Birthday we took him and a couple buddy's to good ol Chuck-E-Cheese to celebrate followed by the "Family Birthday" on Sunday. Monday he kept saying how this was one of the BEST Birthdays he has had and was SOOO HAPPY...it was so Sweet!

Mom Sale

I have 4 kids, whom like their mother is obsessed with clothes. Shopping consignment is a must for me. I have been attending the West Michigan Mom Sale for some time now, always as a shopper. But this year I am attending as a seller. I have tubs and tubs of boy/girl clothing, shoes, toys etc. So I am hoping I can score some good $$ while also making room in our house...for you know more clothes. So if you are in the West Michigan Area be sure to check it out!!

DeltaPlex, Grand Rapids

A couple pics I took earlier in the week, before ALL the snow melted. Believe it or not a couple days of temps in the 40's and ALL of this is gone. IT is a WET mess out there. The kids had a blast building their tunnel, however I am ready for this to stay gone and look forward to Spring..No jackets and breaking out the FLIP FLOPS!!!

****Just realized I already posted these pics**** Oh well.

My LOVE for Etsy

Have you ever browsed etsy.com if not you are totally missing out. They have EVERYTHING you could ever imagine on there and I just LOVE it. And if you are someone who is good at making stuff like this, you need to look into getting yourself a etsy account and make you some money!!

And no this headband is not for my daughter, it is for ME!! I LOVE it and the seller was VERY prompt in mailing out which is a plus! She even sent a nice Thank you Card with 15% off my next purchase. You can check out her etsy@www.mineforthemaking.etsy.com
