No it Hasn't .....Really???


I forgot all about updating this blog. I went back to read it and realized it has been a very, very long time since I last wrote. Things are still going well. Everyone is still doing good. Thank God.

Chuck's work has put him on 32 hour weeks since things have slowed down. Funny how that didn't even phase us since the alternative of being given zero hour weeks could have been so much worse. If anything it gives him a day to get things done or do nothing at all. Who wouldn't want that? I would love it.

I am thinking back to what has transpired since Feb. and I know we have refinanced so the lower monthly payment is nicer. We sold my Silverado (a truck was too big to park in spots made for mini-coopers and a hassle to deal with daily) and I now drive a paid for Hyundai XG350L complete with sunroof, heated leather seats (which I may never ever even turn on here in FL), lots of fun extras and the best part- no car payment. I can't say that enough.

A quick recap of the past 2 months:
-Our great niece Cheyanne was born.
-We had a wonderful Easter day and dinner at the DeFriest Home.
-Chuck has slacked off a bit with his fire school/training and is back to just plain old volunteering, so he is less stressed and I see more of him :)
-Chuck's mom came to stay with us for 2 weeks. It was a nice relaxing visit and enjoyed by all.
-Lauren and Ben bought a beautiful 2008 Chrysler Town and Country van complete with DVD players, back up camera and more bells and whistles than you can count.
-Allison has grown so and is already 9 months old! She is chattering away and right now just loves her bubble machine - we need more batteries and bubble solution!

My mom is coming to visit the end of May! Which will also be Lauren's 25th birthday and my 48th. I really enjoy it when my mom is here - we all do. I think that is all for now. It is a beautiful Sunday and I want to go out and enjoy the day. Take care everyone and I hope things are going well for all.
