Lesson Learned

Around 3:20am this morning bill and I sat straight up in bed, we were awoken by the sound of a car alarm going off, pretty loud... we both look out the window and couldn't decided if it was our car or not. We have had our car for almost a year now but never heard that sound, we could see the reflection of the beeping lights in the windows of the house across the street. so I jump up and grab my keys and press the buttons all of them, but the beeping kept going. so we decided it probably wasn't our car. a second later the alarm went off, and we saw nothing and heard no one outside. so we both lay back down. in my stomach I kept thinking we should go down and check, but I starting thinking with my mom brain, what if someone is out there with a gun lol by the time I thought maybe we should go down together bill was already off in dream land so I just rolled over and back to bed I went.
6:30am I am woken up by bill running up the stairs, Jess our car was broken into... GET UP.... I sat up and immediately thought omg my purse was in there.... I throw on slippers and out the front door I go.... sure enough our front passenger door window was shattered (how come I didnt hear this it was right below my window) and my beautiful Dooney and Bourke purse, my sister cait got me for Christmas was gone.... along with the nice new sunglasses she got me and my wallet and all its contents not to mention a few diapers wipes cars and bradyns beloved snow train. I get on the phone with the police and bill starts calling our bank and credit cards. within minutes of them breaking into the car they had used all of my credit cards and our debit cards.... Bill was REALLY upset not only had we been violated but he tells me DAILY bring in your purse Jess, and I always say it will be fine. When ever i do bring it inside I always forget when Ileave the next time... bringing it in was just not in my habit. and my family has lived on this street for 20+ years it is a safe area nothing ever happens here... or at least I thought.
Police came and took a report and later came and dusted for prints.... the officer who is helping us out has been so nice and gone the xtra mile really trying to help us out in finding who did this. The police have followed up with survalence cameras and we have a few shots of the people as well as the cars, so Im praying they are caught. but we will see if that really happens. The office brought over the slip one of the guys signed my name on at the gas station, and seeing my name forged really struck a cord with me.. I felt even more violated I guess... not sure how to word it.. but the whole thing sucks...
two of our neighbors heard our alarm go off too and checked it out and saw NO one they have perfect views of the front of our house... so whoever did this, knew what they were doing and did it fast. its sucky because our car was in our driveway on a culdsac i might add...and the purse down on the ground not in sight, so these people were looking through our windows... and who knows how many other windows before picking ours... There was so much more they could have taken, and Im thankful no one was hurt. I have learned my lesson no more anything will be left in my car. I dont feel safe now at a place that has been my safe haven for YEARS..... sucky... I tell you what I have never prayed for someone I dislike so much untill now..... Learn from me Bring in your Purse at night!!!!!!!

is it Febuary yet?

Man I bet you all thought I would never be back?! We have had the sickies here for WEEKS now well really MONTHS... and just as things start to look better for us one of the boys gets sick with something new and shares it with all of us. It has been bad, we have gone as far as cleaning out vents, Filters and Carpets. thinking it was something here at home. but Nothing has done the trick. Bradyn is finally at school today for the Second day this month LOL his teachers were shocked to see him. they thought we left the school. Titus is still sick with a horrible cough but thats IT! it actully seems like an acomplishment to say we only have a cough. Needless to say we have been busy with dr's visits LOTS of laundry and Cuddle time.
Titus gave us a scare last week when he hit his head really bad, and began vomiting. We spent the evening in the ER. He was fine Thank you Jesus. but boy We are ready for January to leave and take all its Germs with it!

Hume Lake part 1

OK here is the start of the HUNDREDS of pictures about to come... I will break them up since I know I will never get to start and finish in one sitting :) Both boys are down for naps right now and there are so many other things I really should be doing, but I know so many of you are stalking me just waiting for our pictures.... ha ha OK maybe not so much, but I still feel like every day I wait the future I fall behind.
So here is our trip to Hume Lake Christian camp
My Sister Jennifer and her family are on staff up there. so when we come up we get the use of all the camp has to offer, eat in the dinning hall and just get a break!
our first day after a long five and a half hour drive, the kids were ready to get out into the snow and play. Titus LOVED it and was eating it every time we turned around. Bradyn and his cousin Elliott just had a blast sledding and throwing snowballs...





After all the playing in the snow Titus was WIPED out he fell asleep in my arms it was hilarious, so when we got back to the cabin and layed him down he didnt move.. of course Bill had some fun with this ;)


But then he came to again and all the kids made a BIG mess and had blast doing so :)


Bed time came and Titus crawled right into his brothers sleeping bag, and tryed convincing us he didnt need to sleep in his crib that night.. nice try mr!! :)


The next Day we celebrated Jades 2nd birthday. she had a Bee party and both my boys loved the headgear :) Happy Birthday Miss Jade!!





after the party on our way to the dinning hall Titus was eating the snow and thought it was so funny when we kept telling him EWWWW YUCK!!! he was in such a silly mood


The view over the lake as the sun was setting

after dinner we all come back to the house and the kids make their usual mess while the big kids are playing some sort of game at the kitchen table

We are wiped out

forgive us for not updating in awhile, right after new years we packed up with most of my family and headed up to Hume lake, my sister Jennifer and her family live up there. so we had a great visit and the kids (big and little) had a blast in the snow.
I have HUNDREDS of pictures I still haven't gone through so give me a few days to recoupe, rest and we will have all our awesome pictures up and be back into the updating ways....
