Easter

I had a few photos taken of the kiddos a few weeks ago and thought I would share:) They are growing so fast, I wish they could stay little forever!

We enjoyed our valentine's day. It was filled with lots of LOVE. I was kinda bummed since I had three wisdom teeth taken out the day before but my honey still made it a special day. The boys made me cakes at school and I received flowers and an edible arrangement from the hubby. The love bug brought the kids stuffed animals and candy which they absolutely LOVE. All in all it was a good, good day:)

ALIVE

Goodness, I am horrible at this! It's almost going to be a year that I last posted. Shame on me right? I guess I figured I share everything on facebook that what's the need in me posting it on my blog. Sadly I should still make the effort to keep up with my blog...
A busy year its been for us. Sara had a slow start to the year but once august came around we started moving fast. She is making great progress every day. I couldn't be happier for her. Josh is adjusting to 5Th grade. It's been a tough few months with school work but he is getting better at it. It seems as though they are putting alot more pressure on kids in school nowadays. He is enjoying playing basketball for Upwards and is looking forward to running his first race with his running club at school. Elijah is doing an amazing job at school. He is making straight A's and really becoming such a reader. He loves to read ALL THE TIME! He will be playing spring soccer and is very excited about that. I really do love living so close to my family. Its definitely a blessing. I am currently trying to train for a half AGAIN. I say again because I had to stop a month ago due to a leg injury. I was bummed but I am hoping to get back on track and cross the finish line. I'm sure there will be more posts to come on that. As for now I will leave you with a few photos of my gorgeous family.

My little artist

For his birthday this year Elijah wanted "Art stuff" That's what he calls it. So my sis who is the best bought him an easel and tons of "Art stuff" He loves to color and paint so we took it outside yesterday and enjoyed the weather and let him do what he does best.












We painted,colored, and blew bubbles. Sara had a blast watching him. Not to mention that she was also doing therapy in her monkey and didn't even know it.



















The artist working very hard.










She is so strong!
















And the finished masterpiece... He did a brilliant job!

Happy Birthday Elijah

We had our first game and of course Eli did great! He's just so awesome at this sport. I hate to brag but I am just so proud of my little guy.


He scored a goal!







Coach Garza and Elijah


AND once we were done with the game we rushed over to Gattis for his 6Th birthday:)






My baby turned 6 this month and he chose Angry birds as his theme. He loves angry birds game and any chance he gets he tries to play it on my phone. We celebrated his birthday at Gattis town. He had a blast with all of his cousins and friends.

Oh boy he's 10


I wanted to post this picture of Josh when he turned 4 years old. It seems as though he was just born yesterday and now I can't believe my baby boy is 10 years old. He is excited to be in the double digits but I have to admit I am a little sad. He was super excited for this day and this is how we spent it...
















He had tons of fun!

Believe

I'm sorry I have been slacking in this department but between facebook and Sara's blog I just simply forget about this one...






I'm sure most of you heard the email I sent to pastor about Sara... We have been so amazed at how far she has come and how the Lord has just been constantly showing himself strong in her life. A few weeks ago I noticed as Sara was sleeping that she rolled her ankle. At first I thought I was just seeing things. You know sometimes if you want something so bad you can sit and stare and it might seem as though its happening. But for me it was different because she DID move it. There's more movement in the left than the right but that's okay... I'll take what I can get! I know I was bummed that she was going to have to wear this Spica cast for 8 weeks but I actually think it was a blessing in disguise. Sara has been doing really good. Its overwhelming at everything that the Lord has been providing for us. We were able to bump up our insurance so that it would cover more of Sara's medical... which meant more out of our pocket a month for insurance BUT then the Lord provided Eric with a great job that gave him a raise so its as if we don't even realize the difference we are paying for the insurance. I'm telling you God is providing our EVERY need. It's amazing to be living a life where HE is showing us all these miracles. She is definitely one of them and I know that a year ago at this time I was an emotional mess. I was scared and hurt. But the Lord held my hand every bit of the way and I am just so Thankful for his LOVE. I found my way back to him and it feels good. He never left me I just couldn't see clearly. He was there this whole time:)



SO to my church family I just want to say THANK YOU for keeping us in your prayers, For not forgetting us and our baby girl.
We love you guys Oh so very much!




She loves it when her big bros take her for a stroll.

Catching up

Please forgive me friends, I've been slacking in this area. Here are a few pics of Halloween, Elijah's field trip to the Texas State Aquarium and His Pow Wow at school. The last pic was taken on Thanksgiving.
We celebrated Thanksgiving with our family here in Corpus. Last year at this time our family was going through alot with just finding out about Sara's SB. So it was a little emotional this week for me but God carried me through it just like he did last year. I am so very Thankful for my children, my husband, my family and our friends. And now I will have to get ready for Sara's first birthday which is next weekend!! :)





























She wouldn't look at the camera.

Fall but feels like sumer?

We did the whole pumpkin carving and pumpkin patch this past weekend. Even though it feels nothing like fall... It's still 80 degree weather. I am definitely missing Oklahoma weather right about now:)




We took the kiddos out to North beach and got some cute photos of them. They had fun!
