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

18 already?

The reality of it really hasn't sank in yet I don't think, she still has one more year of school so that's probably why. My first born 18 years old.  Despite all the reminders of her age from my sweet girl, it truly does seem like only yesterday we were bringing her home from the hospital when all the sudden here we are just over 2 weeks past her turning eighteen, where did all those years go? I would love to be able to sit here and recount every single detail with you from the very start but that might bore you to tears and well she might kill me of I did that.  Because I can remember lots of little moments that would embarrassed her to death like how she was so scared of everyone singing happy birthday on her first birthday that she hid under the table crying and didn't want to touch the cake we got her.  Or of her and her bff having cupcakes in their diapers that nanny brought by after Cathy's party at school when they were only one.  Or of her and t...

Midlife crisis? Nah, just having a little fun.

I guess that is what some people call it when a guy nearing (ever so close to) 40 goes out and buys himself a shiny new (or not so new) motorcycle.  However that thought never really crossed my mind when Stephen asked to buy one off a guy he works with.  I wasn't thrilled with the idea, not because I thought he was having a midlife crisis, but because I thought there were plenty of other things we could spend our money on.  I said no.  We always talk about big purchases and agree when or if we spend the money.  I was sure this thought was settled and we would not be the owners of a motorcycle anytime soon.  Stephen had other ideas... Stephens toy He made the decision to get the bike (it really was a good price, I guess) and well now we are that crazy old couple that rides around on a motorcycle every chance at nice weather we get. Here is a bit of history...My dad had a Honda gold wing when we were little (I was like 13)  he and my mom wou...

it's been a minute

yep, since I posted anyway.  This is just a short sweet post, to let you all know that I am still here...It has just been a little busy spending time with Stephen and the girls, taking a mini road trip with Steph and Rita to Texas (crazy story) and so much other stuff that I haven't made time to sit down and write anything.  I have a couple of things in the works though so don't give up on me.  Something about farm animals, another post about Chuck(s) and a few other things.  I haven't really made any time for quilting, bag making or anything crafty in a bit either so I gotta get on that (I miss it). Check back often to see that yes I am still alive and well, just busier than normal (and my normal is pretty busy) Have a great week ahead hope to write for you all soon.
