A little bit of everything about our lives!

Saturday, May 9, 2015

I can't seem to keep caught up with these posts anymore. I did a good job through the middle of April, then I completely got messed up and haven't gotten back on track. Anyway, since it's not that terribly important anyway, I haven't worried too much about it. I just didn't want to get so far behind as to forget what weeks I'm supposed to be doing!


Shelby made a friend at the Trail Life camp out! Here she was just talking and talking to him when we were packing up to go home.


Monday was American Heritage Girl's messy game night. Paige did not want to play most of the messiest games, but she did play musical chairs (with plates full of shaving cream).


Cheyenne also enjoyed messy game night! She was one of the cleaner girls there since she also wanted to stay out of a couple of the messiest games. She still needed a bath when she got home though! 


A favorite pass time around here is Family Fluxx. The kids pull it out and play it on their own!


I noticed these beautiful flowers in our yard on Wednesday. I don't think we've had very many of these before, and they really popped out this year! 


Paige being goofy while we were reading a story before bedtime. Obviously I took a break from reading to take a couple pictures, and Paige was all giggly because of my many attempts to catch her smiling.


Paige and Shelby before the production of Wonderland and Into the Woods put on by Artios Academies. The play was wonderful and these two went home singing the songs from the plays for the next couple days! 


This isn't the clearest picture, but I just snapped a quick shot of Shelby in her bed Saturday afternoon. Naps are actually a rare thing anymore, and Shelby put herself to bed! I don't remember what all we had done earlier that day, but she was tired and went to bed.

  1. Love the flower shot- so pretty! Our roses have really bloomed this year too! I've never heard of that card game & will have to check it out now. Thanks!

Who I Am

My photo
We're the Presley family. Jon and I met and got married in 2004. The circumstances behind all that were not the best, but God has truly turned our many mistakes into good! Only by His grace and mercy are we where we are today. We have four wonderfully crazy kids that are between four and eight years old. Jon is an HVAC technician and I stay at home to attempt to teach and train our kids in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. It's a challenging job, and one I fail at constantly. But God does and will continue to sustain and uphold me and give me grace to do this amazing task he's called me to do. ~For nothing is impossible with God! Luke 1:37
