Time...

Why is it that time passes so much faster when you're older than when you were a kid? 

The older I get the faster it seems to go.  I so don't get it.  Maybe it just passes the same but when you are a kid you are always looking forward to something big...last day of school, Christmas break, your birthday and your lack of patience makes it seem like the days just drag on forever (unless its summer break and the first day of school is there before you blink) and when you're older you have developed your patience much better than when you were little and well with work and kids and bills and everything else on your grown up plate its really kinda hard to look forward to those "big" days right?  I mean because if we're looking forward to Christmas we worry about the money we are going to end up spending, if we look forward to summer break well then we just have to worry about how to keep the kiddos entertained and safe while we work and well what grown up really looks forward to their birthday I mean who wants to get yet another year older.  So we don't look forward to much to make the days seem as if they are dragging and then here we are wondering where all this time has gone.  While we were busy being grown ups the fun stuff we use to love just slips by the wayside barely getting noticed and the days have flown by us like we were standing still.

That is what seems to be going on in my house these days.  We are all so busy that we haven't really been taking the time to enjoy what God has put before us.  Don't get me wrong, we have been doing stuff.  Stephen and I got to take a cruise, we have all been fishing with my dad a few times, Britt is playing softball again this year and lots of other things.  I have been too busy just going with the flow that I have not made time to write in my blog in about a month and a half.  I miss it. 

This is what has me asking why time seems to fly.  It seems like I have no time to blog these days.  I know I have said it in the past that I am going to be better about blogging more frequently and I do well for a bit and then we get busy and I slow to a near stop.

I do recall posting at the beginning of the year that I would write when I could because we were too busy enjoying life and we have been.  But part of my enjoying life is getting to blog.  It is relaxing and lots of fun.

Keep your eyes open for new stories about our many adventures.  the ones from the past as well as all the adventures we have yet to have.

Thanks for reading.

Have a fantastic Wednesday

A good time

Yep anytime you get to spend the weekend at the lake is a good time.  My girls and I drove over to mom and dads place on the lake this past weekend (Stephen met us there on Saturday) I wanted to see them as it has been several weeks since the last time I had seen them.  Just wanted to share a few of the silly moments.  ~~~~> This is one of the little girls (forgive me Janae, I still can't tell them apart unless I'm looking directly at their faces.  I'm sorry.  I love them like crazy just can't tell them apart very well) <~~~~This is my girls making our purchase at the Dairy Deal.  This is a MUST when making the drive to Salina for any reason.  I have never had the food there but the ice cream products they offer are out of this world (unless you are a dork like Britt and order dippin' dots...those are just weird) Be careful when ordering a large...they are way too large (especially if you on a diet.  :) ~~~~> Here we are agai

Happy New Year! !

I can not believe how quickly the years pass now that I am inching ever so close to 40.  Some people say "wow I dont know where the year went"  but crazy as it sounds I do know.   It really seems like yesterday Stephen and I were hanging out with some friends waiting to ring in 2013.  And here it is January 1, 2014.  It flat flew by.  At first thought I could think I don't know what happened to the time.  But given a few minutes to ponder it all I remember well what all happened (Stephen always gives me 9 kinds of crap about posting on Facebook or instagram but when looking back they help me remember all the fun we had).  We did some pretty great things in 2013.  We got to travel out of the country for the first time (to 3 different countries), made some new friends, sadly lost touch with some dear friends & got back in touch with some old ones.  Val got her drivers license and Britt started her first year of high school. We had some pretty great adventures and spe

Wonderful waste of time

 I tried to warn you that I had so much to tell you... So We have been spending so much time at the hospital with my dad.  I mean we were all there for several days (now we are taking turns-he's doing well and we had to go back to work).  And you know how it is everyone brings something to keep them busy so that they can ward off boredom.  Well Val had been using one of those round loom things that you can knit hats and such.  She had made herself one and while there her knitting caught the attention of one of my nieces (Katie) and she wanted to know how to make one for herself.  So Val being excited to show someone sat down with her and gave her the loom and some yarn and helped her along.  That girl made her whole hat.  She loves it and wears it everywhere already.  Before we knew it Haleigh was in on learning to make hats.  They were having such a good time knitting away while visiting with their papa and all his company.  I mentioned to Val that maybe they could make some
