ahhhh.......
life of a stay at home mom! Nothing to crazy to update, other than I am trying desperately to go back to work! Turns out I am rather lazy as a stay at home mom and I am a much better mom when I am working. I really miss my classroom, and the sweet faces, the love of books, the learning..... I could go on... and on.... and on.... Also, me staying at home might literally give my sweet husband an early death. Money is tight, and the stress is high.

So I have started my own side business of making pokerchip necklaces and picture frames. Both are going very well and I am really enjoying 'my creative side'. :) Check out my site on facebook..... 'pretty pigtail things' and become a a fan, or check out www.prettypigtailthings.com .

We are good! Landon is reading really well (already starting chapter books) and is loving baseball (1st year of coach pitch). Pressley just finished up her year of cheer at Prodigy and is excited about another year. She is very excited her friend will join her in denim this year!

We were so blessed with our recent trip to Australia for 3 weeks to visit family. The kids were in heaven and were so excited to play with the cousins- they have 5 cousins to play with there. They are all similar ages. It was amazing and I am really missing my sweet mother-in-law and amazing sisters there. I really wish we lived closer to family.

LOve everyone!
