Last Weekend's Wedding

I took a few 700 pictures over the course of the weekend....Here are a few.

The girls walked from the house to the church.

Last weekend was Tony's counsin Kelli's wedding to Chris... It was such a fun weekend... It started friday, taking Alyse to the surgi-centre to get a green beebee taken out of her nose, yes it's the most expensive beebee ever.... She did great and they only had to gas her, no IV or blood work. Took the afternoon easy, then we went to the rehearsal, which was fun, and then some good eating.... Tony really liked that part of the day... The kids had so much fun with Uncle Ron and Aunt Carla... Saturday was the wedding and pictures and the fun party.. On the way over to the wedding we told the kids that we were going to go to a fun dancing party, so they were so excited.... They danced there little butties off... It was great... They did such a good job in the wedding, they walked so good down the isle. Sunday we went to the brunch and watched the happy couple open their gifts... I am so happy for Kelli and Chris, they are such a great couple... They are good together. I can't wait to do more with them when they get back from their honeymoon.....Alright gotta go to bed, I have a big week this week. I have 3 tests, and a paper due tomorrow which is done, but just a lot of school work to get done.... Have a great week.....Enjoy the pictures.....

Alyse practicing with curlers for the wedding she

in. She did pretty good.

I gave Lane a hair cut for his part in the wedding

and they were showing me how silly they are.

Lane trying to scare me with his growl.
Alyse was suppose to be taking a nap and this is

what I found when I went to check on her...Too Cute.

These cute little feet were sticking out of a pile of

pillows and blankets. Lane calls it his tent... It is so

funny, he slept in there for his nap...

This has been a crazy crazy couple of weeks... I think that everday has had something planned or something to do. I just can't believe how fast the last couple of weeks have gone by.... The kids have been sick, vomitting, so keeping a close eye on them. Then yesterday Alyse decided to stick a small green ball like bee bee up her nose. Yes I said up her nose. I tried to have her blow it out herself, I put nasal spray in her nose to hopefully flush it out, I even tried to do mouth to mouth and I blew in her mouth to try to blow it out... Nothing worked, it is really stuck in there... We went to see Dr. Steffen and he tried but Alyse wouldn't stay still enough so he sending us on to the ear nose and throat Doctor. I can't believe this. It is kind of funny. I had a fall break from school so I didn't have class on Monday or Tuesday, I thought that I was going to get so much done... I didn't realize how much there was to do... I have two test this week on top of trying to get a green ball out of Alyse's nose. Then today while I was going to the bathroom, I looked over at the sink and there was a snake, YES A SNAKE......I couldn't believe it a snake in my house..... Ewhh I am so grossed out by it... Don't worry I yelled for Tony and he took it out of the house..I don't know what I would of done if he wasn't home...

Over the weekend we went to the Apple Blossom Farm, over in Peoria.. We had such a great time... The kids got to play on this fun home made play ground... We ate great food. We had such great weather...Our little family needed a fun family day. Then later that saturday, Alyse and I went out to eat with some girlfriends of mine, and afterwards we painted pottery at Fired Up... It was great.

I already started my Christmas shopping.... Hard to believe, but it's almost November and I want all my shopping done before December so I can relax and enjoy the season.... I will try to keep my pictures better updated. Hope you all well and to Michelle hang in there Sister, we are almost done with the first sem. I think of you often...Love you babe... To everyone else that reads this, know that if I haven't gotten to see or talk to you lately, I do miss you and love you all very much. Please keep me and my family in your prayers. May God Bless You All......

Ok so it's been awhile since my last post... Life has been keeping me busy, busy. To start off Tony and I had a weekend getaway that was very needed. We got to relax and just finally get to catch up. On the last day of our weekend Tim and Betty Kaupp joined us to play golf down in Pana. It was so nice to get to talk with them, we are truely blessed to have great friends. We had great talks and awesome golf. Lotsa fun.. My Wonderful Mother was able to come home from Texas where her and my Dad just moved, so she could watch the kids for us, it was great... The kids were so sad to see her leave. Alyse wouldn't go to bed she kept saying,"I lost my grandma" and when I tried to lay with her she got mad and told me, "That's Grandma's pillow." We had a few days of adjusting back to real life without Grandma.



I have been busy with school and get paperwork done, we started clinical a couple weeks ago and I am really enjoying my time at the nursing home. The residents are so nice and love having us there. All of my classmates are wonderful people, we all work together and help one another. It is so nice.



I would like to ask for a prayer request, I had a very stressful experience at work and I am still working through it, so if you could pray for me..



On a brighter note, Alyse is potty trained, she did it all by herself... She is sooooo independent. Even when she should have help she has to try on her own first, sometimes she asked me,"Mommy could you please leave?" It is so funny then she'll tell me that she is stinky.. So I leave trying not to laugh. Tony has broken our horse, we, the whole family has now gotten a turn to ride her, saddled and bareback... She is so gentle... It is so fun to have a horse again. I love having her at our house...



School is already at the midterm.. I can't believe it.. It is going by fast... Ok well I will post you some pictures and then I need to do some homework...... Always...



May God Bless You and Keep You.... Have a great week...
