Better late than never....

Since we got home, things have been so busy. I am rounding down my semester with school. Yeah. I am doing pretty well this semester, much to my surprise! I am taking Math and English this semester. English is okay, but Math kicks my butt- always has! I have a final this Saturday for English and a final next Tuesday for Math then I have a few weeks off until summer semester starts. It will be nice to have that time to get some things done around here!

This past week we took Gavyn to check out his preschool. He will be starting 3 school this fall. He is really excited about that! Tim has been keeping busy with work, and Teagyn is talking like a 3 yr old. Some of the things he says amazes us! He learns so much from Gavyn, No doubt!

Another big thing going on.....Since we got home from Florida Tim and I have been talking about putting our house up for sale, and moving to Florida! It is a huge decision. But there are so many opportunities there for us! I have been researching a ton, school districts and such! We will stay in my grandmas house (just outside of Orlando) at first. While we look with a realtor in the areas we are interested in. The job prospects fro me after school are endless. Tim will probably find a job driving truck, once we get there. The kicker will be selling our house. We met with Realtor the other night and they gave us the market value of our home. We were surprised that we actually had equity in it! So, hopefully we get enough out of it to have a nice down payment on a home down there! We are the only home with all of criteria in the Zeeland school district, so they told us that that is a good sign. We will just have to play the waiting game for now!

So, here are some pics from our vacation....we had so much fun, and so did the boys! I think

Grandma really enjoyed the boys, they had missed her so much over the winter!

I will keep you posted on any news we get!

Tim and Gav feeding the Sting Rays.

Isn't this thing precious!

The Shamu show, or the "shampoo" show as Gavyn calls it! LOL!

I have no idea what kind of shark this is but it was crazy looking. It was in an aquarium, it swam over top of us and I took this pic.

Tim and I went out one night, just the two of us in Orlando. We went to eat at Jimmy Buffet's restaurant. I had the BEST Margarita ever!!!

Tim caught this bass, it was huge! He was so proud of himself to say the least!

This gator was in the channel one day when we went for a walk, just a few yards away from us, ahhhh~

Teagyn eating a fresh strawberry from the market.

We are here!!!

(This post is from last night, actually)

We made it. It was a long trip with the boys, this time. We usually leave at night and drive thru the night, but this time we left in the am, which mad for a very long day for all of us. Stopped just south of Macon GA last night and got here around 3 this afternoon. The boys are exhausted! However, we still took them out for a boat drive tonight and we say TWO gators already. Gav loved that. Tonight at bed Gavyn started crying and said that he jsut wanted to go home. Can u believe that? I was shocked, he has waited for months to get here, and now this. Finally he said to me that he misses the dogs, and wanted to go home for them, isn't that sweet?

The weather isn't going to be that warm next week from the looks of it, bummer. Still 60's, but

darnit I wanted a tan, lol.

Anyways, here are some pics. I LOVE my new laptop, this is awesome to be on vacation and still have this convience. Everyone is asleep and I need to get there too. Oh, and Rachel, I am over the 'flu', lol! Funny b/c I contemplated the same thing after it had been 4 days, but no thank goodness this is not a good time with school!!!!

I have more pics, but am having problems with my internet connection, hope to be back soon.

****I was able to get the other pics up today.

This is a Bald Eagle, really cool and rare to see, even around here!

Getting Ready to go....

It has been a long time since I have been here.....busyness has consumed me! And my entire family. We are leaving in the morning (Thurs.) for sunny Florida. Gavyn is so excited! I am too, but have some how managed to come down with a mild flu for the past tree days and I cannot seem to shake it! I am hoping that tomorrow morning when I wake up the nausea is gone!

Nothing much new going on. I turned the big 3-0 a few weeks ago. So I have gotten older, lol! I am finished with my orientation at work. I LOVE my new job! It is such a rewarding job. I have stood in on a few things that have definitely confirmed that working in the ER as a nurse is probably where I will stay! I can't wait to be done with school! Speaking of school, I am getting to the end of this semester! Finally! 3 weeks left I think?! It is a tough semester! i am taking summer classes too so not much a break! Tim is staying busy with work right now, lets hope that continues!

Here are some pics of the boys. Random ones over the past month or so. Notice that Gavyn has his toes painted in one and a princess hat on in another! LOL! Tim has a fit when he/I does/do those things! :) I think it is funny. Tim will say, "If he grows up to be gay...it's going to be your fault." I just laugh!
