Some recent fun we've had...at the park, then in the snow, then back at the park!!!

This weekend we went to the park with some friends...

Brayden and Asher had so much fun...we had a play date with Abbey and her mommy and daddy, but Brayden found some boys (Diesel and Jake) to play with while we were there...

Brayden didn't understand that he couldn't walk under the swings...he and Abbey bumped and he busted her mouth...he was so sweet because he didn't understand and he kept saying he was sorry and he didn't mean to hurt Abbey, he even said a prayer for her last night when we said our prayers...

I just loved this picture of Abbey...and it was funny to me seeing the difference of a baby laughing down a slide and Brayden who just looks like such a big boy going down!!!

Below are the pics of the snow...Asher wasn't too much of a fan, but Brayden had a blast!

Brayden had fun throwing snow balls...unfortunately for me and Asher, we became the target!

This was our first trip to the park that we found...it was a bit chilly, but definitely didn't see the snow coming the following week! We made this trip with Uncle Paul...

Boys just wanna have fun!!!

Update...

Just a few pictures since I never added any...I'll have to upload the pics from the snow, but who know's when that will happen! :)

Okay...so here's the latest with everything else....

Asher is going to have to get tubes on March 19th, but Praise the Lord - - - Brayden's surgery has been postponed to April 7th and hopefully indefinitely!

Trent is still searching for a job. Please pray for God's will to be opened up to him so that he knows where he is supposed to go.

My mom is still not doing well. They are afraid that she may have a mass on her kidney's and she apparently has busted some of her stitches?

And Shae is doing ok. She is going to the doctor sometime this week. They believe she may have chrone's disease...we'll hopefully find out sometime this week.

As for me...I'm just working and trying to keep it together for my family. Please pray that God will open up opportunities for us to find creative ways to save money and make money. I've thought about trying to do some photography on the side, but I am not sure if that's going to pan out...

Until next time...

Family Update

Okay...so we have had a LOT going on recently....for starters, Trent lost his job on February 4th! It was totally unexpected, so please keep us in your prayers! Then, along with the news, my momma had to have a total hysterectomy on Monday and is still recovering from her surgery and will be for several weeks. Then there's Brayden...he has an appointment on the 25th and is most likely going to have tubes and his adenoids removed on March 5th. Then there's Asher...he is having a lot of troubles with his ears as well and is going to the ENT on the 26th and we'll be exploring the possibilities of tubes with him as well! Needless to say, we've had quite a bit going on recently and that's the reason I haven't been able to post recently.
I am going to be posting some pics soon of the boys! They're growing up so quickly and it's so funny seeing how they are starting to interact!!!

Pictures from all of our family get togethers!!! Needless to say, we have several get togethers throughout the month of December :)

These are not in any particular order, but I have tried to group them together according to which family gathering it was...

The Waldrip's...all 10 great-grandkids in one picture...

My Maw-Maw's house Christmas night...there were so many people in the house it was CRAZY, but oh so much fun!

Trent's Grandma and Grandpa's at lunch on Christmas...the boys had so much fun with their cousins and opening presents!!!


Trent's parent's on December 26th...we had Christmas the day after this year and the boys enjoyed having an extra day of Christmas!

My parents on Christmas Eve...notice the three oldest all have fingers in their mouths??? Won't be long till Asher will join in with copying the "big kids"....

Christmas with the Brinkley's...

Christmas with Trent's Maw-Maw's...that's Brayden and Asher with their great-great-grandmother...

After Christmas at my Grandy's, we went to Lake Lanier...Brayden was trying to get the "snowflakes" that were going over momma's van...

Christmas at Grandy's...Brayden and Carrigan decided to play cards with the adults...

Christmas has come and passed....

Wow! Christmas was such a blast this year! I will have to add some pics later as I haven't uploaded them to my computer yet, but this year along with some other stuff, the big gifts for the boys were Rocking horses and Cowboy boots from Santa! They both loved the rocking horses and needless to say, Asher didn't care about the boots, but Brayden loved them! He wore them so much that he had bruises on his shins! He puts them on with (or without) anything! He has worn them with regular clothes, footed pjs, and even with nothing but a diaper or underwear!!! He's so funny! And Asher, being the rocker he is, loves his horse! He can sit in it for literally an hour or so at a time. And Brayden has really come into his "Big Brother" roll! The other night, he was playing with Asher and bringing toys over to help him play with his new toys! It was so cute. There's so much to say about the two of them and how they're interacting now! Brayden really started showing some signs of jealousy during Christmas, but now he has made a turn around and is really being sweet with Asher. I'm so proud of him!
The other big news to tell is that on Jan. 3rd, WE GOT A NEW VAN!! It's a Dodge Grand Caravan 08 model. I never imagined driving something so nice!
At any rate, I know this is jumbled, but I just wanted to give a brief overview of what has been happening since my last post...and I will add some pics as soon as I get a chance. I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and New Year!
