They're Here!

For those of you who do not know my sister's four children are coming to live with us for a year while she is diploid to Iraq. We prepared for my mother to come on Friday, and for Jessica and Chris and the kids to coming on Sunday night or Monday morning. Well... Saturday evening my Dad called and said he and my grandparents were coming down to see Jessica before she leaves and that they should be here at 2 or 3 AM. So after a few seconds of freaking out, I got to working making up two more guest beds. So they arrived Sunday morning at 2:30am and Jessica, Chris and the kids arrived Sunday around 8 pm. Dad and Grandpa and ma left Monday morning and Jessica and Chris left this morning. Mom will leave in the morning, and I will be committed into the nut house shortly after!! Just kidding! We are going to have a great time. We will update family and friends with pics and have some really fun things planned. Don't be surprised if updates are sometime long or few. There's a big change from one to five! I look forward to keeping you all updated.

Kids say the darnest things!

So we (Steve, Jet and I) are at the grocery store when Jet sees a carton of brown eggs. The conversation went as follows:

Jet- Mom, can we have some chocolate milk eggs?

Steve and Brandy - laughing begins

Jet- They are healthy and good for you

Steve and Brandy - laughing strengthens and a few tears are shed

Oh the joy of kids, I love the way they look at things!

Retraction

I am apologizing to my (to be accurate, so I don’t have to write another retraction) to my Stepson Will. In the prior blog “Florida” my wording may have implied that Will was the one using the wheelchair ramp when in fact the deck and ramp will be used…
Wait a second, he will be using the deck and ramp, he is just not in or in use of a wheelchair at this time or in the past…
Not that there is anything wrong with that!
(For those who may be reading this, that last line is a Seinfeld joke)
So I am apologizing to Will and his family for the grief and turmoil I may have caused do to my lack of journalist capabilities.(Again for those who are reading this: I love my family, I just enjoy giving them a hard time.)

Florida

We're home again. What is it about sleeping in your own bed?? Steve and I got the best nights sleep we've ever had last night after getting back from Florida. We went down and built a deck and wheelchair ramp for Steve's son Will. It took the two of us (and Will's help) 3 and a half days, we are sore and bruised in places but are very VERY grateful for the work. It was great seeing Will and his family.


Jet (hardly working)


















Jet, Harrison, and Avery


It's funny, Harrison and Avery see a camera and pose (because Christi is a good mom and takes pictures of her kids) meanwhile Jet sees a camera and makes silly faces.
