Guess what I got for my birthday!

What a wonder years so far! I have met the most amazing man, Danny! As I am sure most of you are aware. We have had a whirlwind romance for which neither of us expected. We met at a time were we both had pretty much given up on the concept of love but still longed for it and the companionship that comes with having someone that is completely on the same page and most times on the same line as you are.

When we met he lived 134 miles away right outside of DC. After a short time we decided that was just not going to work for us. He was going to move to this area (Hershey). After a few complications and changing of plans he ended up moving in with me a little over three and a half months ago. Which was not what we wanted or planned for, we wanted an old fashion relationship. However, neither of us would change our lives for the world and are happy to be apart of each others daily life's.

We have spent an amazing summer getting to know each other and one another's families. We were blessed with the opportunity for Danny to meet my mom's side of the family from Montana at my cousin Kelsey's wedding in NC in June. His family is in Pittsburgh so we have been able to spend time getting to know them as well. His family is very down to earth and has opened their arms to me and the kids.

We have created our own happy little family as well, the kids adore him and he loves them deeply. The last 6 and a half months have been absolutely amazing I am overwhelmed with love for this man!

So what does this ring mean??? It’s a promise, and outward symbol of our commitment to each other and to the children. Its is one more step toward the rest of our lives together.

School has begun

Life is wonderfully busy… and my babies are growing up faster then I would have ever imagined!
Makenzie a.k.a. Kenzie, a.k.a Kenz, a.k.a. Bean, is busy with second grade. She is the smartest little thing ever! She seems to understand Math and English very well. She is also keeping busy with dance. This year she is doing ballet and hip hop. She enjoys cuddling with Maddie (our min pin) and coloring beautiful pictures, but don’t expect her to be girly because it’s not going to happen. David is also doing very well; he is still in boy scouts and loves all the adventures that scout’s bring his way. He is also on the Middle school tackle football team. He is chatty as ever and still intrigued by everything and wants to know how it all works and why… this child thrives on information.
