♥Happy St. Valentine's Day...

Today was a GREAT day!! We made up little goodie baskets & delivered them to the grade school for our munchkins!! Thomas got our babies & myself some pretty awesome gifts including having roses delivered :)!! Thomas & I spent the day together just hanging out & "making up" for his days he works *giggles*!! We had one of Dylon's favorite suppers (homemade pulled BBQ chicken sandwiches) it was delish!! Thomas plans on taking us all out to a Valentine's Day supper on his next Saturday off...Dylon & I are secretly hoping it's to Red Lobster (our favorite seafood place)!! On another note we also celebrate today for Thomas' being released from prison!! Today marks 12 years he's been a free man!! He has worked so very hard to get to this point in life!! He says I have kept him grounded *blushes*!! I am just very proud of him & love him so very much!!

Any who here are a few photos from our day today:

So yes all in all we had a fantastic day around here!! I just love my wonderful 3 so much more than words could ever say!! I'd be lost without them!! I am a truly blessed woman!!

Happy St. Valentine's Day to all...I hope your day was filled with tons of love!!

♥Some Learning To Do...

As I stated in the last blog I have been wanting to prefect my photo editing skills lately & I have FINALLY gotten off my duff & started to take a step (for the better I think) in that direction!! Here is the outcome of another attempt!!

Photo used was of my son when he was a baby!!

I love the way he looks so "doll like"!! Ahh makes me long for baby days *giggles*!!

♥A Work In Progress...

Ok so I have been wanting to master the "sparkle" effect that I see in photographers photos...so I decided to fire up my photoshop & give it a go!! I didn't master the look I wanted, but I am really proud of how this photo turned out :)!! I think I have a small glimmer of hope/potential!!

Photo used was of my daughter when she was smaller!!

I'll let y'all be the judge!! What do y'all think??

♥Whoa...

YIKES I have been seriously neglecting this blog!?

Going to make it a NEW point/goal to start updating here more often!!

To sum up this past year things have been great & bad all rolled into one!! I won't get into the bad parts because I feel they should just be left alone at this point, but the good parts are:

Both of my munchkins are loving school!! Dylon is doing just fantastic while Victoria is struggling a bit...she seems to still think it's preschool hopefully she'll pass, but at this point I am iffy :/ & I feel just terrible for thinking that :(!!

Dylon 2012-2013 First Grade

 Victoria 2012-2013 Kindergarten

We FINALLY had family photos done this Fall & I LOVE how they turned out!! Here is my favorite group shot of all 4 of us!!

Our munchkins had an awesome Christmas this year!! "Santa" was very good to them *giggles*!!

Thomas & I got to attend the Here & Now Tour which was Nickelback featuring Bush, Seether, & My Darkest Days!! It was one f*cking kick @ss show!!

My best friend, Andrea, asked me to be present when she delivered her 3rd child (a boy this time)!! It was an honor to be present at his birth!! So glad I was there:

My Godson, Emrys:

All 3 of my Godchildren...Allie, Abbie, & Emrys:

As for Thomas & I we are doing just fantastic!! We had to cut several for um lack of a better word sh*t disturbers out of our lives, including a few family members, but we've never been happier!! He works as much as he can & I'm trying very hard to concentrate on my health!! I'm also in the process of trying to get my design site, Forever Mine Designs, set back up!!
