The most wonderful time of my year !!!

My favorite time of the year is when I get my family together to take family pictures.


These 4 people are my favorite in the entire world. They are my reason for living !!!

I love my girls !!

This is the proof & Aubrey wasn't into taking pictures anymore at this point.

She just wanted to leave ...............

Shelby was screaming as she left the house to meet the scary man waiting for her !!

This are my nieces Storme, Tara, Kara & Brianna as they ran out of the scary house !!

Can you hear me now ???

We finally gave in and let Shelby get a cell phone. She has been begging us for months and although she is a bit young, she is trying so hard to show us she is responsible. She does her chores everyday with out any complaints.

Matt & Britanee were here when we decided to give Shelby the phone. I sent Shelby to go check the mail. She gave me a crazy look since itt was 8:15pm but did it anyway. When she was gone I put the phone under her hoody on the couch where she was sitting.

When she came in the house Britanee called her cell phone . We all heard the phone ring and everyone was looking around and Mike asked is someone going to answer their phone ? I looked at Brit and she looked at me and Shelby said well it isn't me cause I don't have a phone. We all kinda laughed and then Brit called the phone again. This time Shelby found it , looked at the caller id and then threw the phone at Britanee. We all looked at her in shock because she is crazy. She said it said Britanee so it must be her phone. I told her Nerd, Britanee isn't calling herself !!

So then Shelby answered the phone and Brit said, Shelby you just answered you own phone. She was so excited and gave Mike & I huge hugs !! We will never forget the look on her face !! It was priceless !!

Madison's 3 year Angelversary

Today is 3 years that Madison joined her brother & sister in Heaven. I think about her all the time. I wonder if Aubrey acts like her or if they would look alike. I wonder if she would love music like Aubrey or love to draw like Shelby.


This is the only picture I have of my mom with me & my daughter. Mady was such a feisty little 10 oz baby. She was the most active in my tummy while I was pregnant with the triplets.



Mady fought hard and went through a long battle including heart surgery in the 3 days she lived.

Mommy & Daddy will love you forever Mady !! We miss you everyday !!

Forever with us ..........

After all the babies passed away Mike & I decided to get a tattoo in memory of them. Mike got his done the day before their funeral and I love it. I love the angel wings and I love how the boy angel is passing a halo to the girl angel which is how I pictured Conner doing to Madison. I love seeing their names and the days they went to heaven.

I wasn't sure how I wanted to do my tattoo so I didn't get mine until after Aubrey was born. I decided to get the 2 identical flowersto honor Logan-Makenna & Madison since they were identical babies and then I got a dragon fly to honor Conner. Aubrey has always been my little ladybug so I got that to honor her with her siblings because I feel like she was our blessing after they went to heaven.
