Hiding

I feel like I have been hiding from my blog. 
I have been busy elsewhere.
Soccer:



LOTS and LOTS of it, between practices and games. Luckily they were able to get Miss M and Sweet K on the same team.
Family Time:





Not the kind you were thinking huh? We have a very redneck back yard. We keep changing our minds about what to do with it. Really I just want the grass to grow in. I want it edged and then I want the little rascals to run freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. So FHE this week was spent cleaning it up. We have two fruit trees with more fruit than we can ever eat and a lot gets wasted. I feel bad. It was so nice to see the ground free of all the grapefruits though.We tossed old sun worn toys and anything the kids have destroyed.We need to refill the sand box. Most of the sand has managed to find it's way to places dear old ME, aka Mom does not want it. They love it, so it is worth it.It was soooo nice to see my kids pitch in. Only one kiddo pouted. He wanted to pull weeds and that was not needed. Guess there are worse things to pout about?!! I have been just exhausted still. Fighting my own body I guess.... One of my kiddos has been giving me heck and I think thats part of it. I think we have finally gotten past the worst of it. We changed our home phone #. No more surprise calls from Biological Mothers who may not be so safe. Let me clarify something. I have NOTHING against Bio Parents. If it were not for them I would not have my beautiful family. Because my children are adopted out of foster care, the range of choices these parents make are huge. Some good, some bad.Good people make bad choices all the time.Doesn't make it right, it's really just not our place to judge. I have three different situations with Bio Parents and I feel it's important  to take it on a case by case basis. These parents are people who are victims of their own childhood, and still suffer, yet are adults now and have to take responsibility for their own choices.WOW, how about that tangent? Anyways some have asked so there's the 411. This is what we are up to these days......

Girl, busy is the life we have.. Don't worry about us little old bloggies, just do your thang.. I wish we could live by each other, my husband could do your landscaping for you for basicly free. My sister adopted, and she is going through the same thing right now. It is hard, but your right, with out them, their would be no darling kids. hugs to you, get rest sometime, somewhere. lol

One of the kids pouted because you WOULDN'T let them pick weeds? Wow! A kid actually wanting to pull weeds, Never heard of that before.

P.S. are you needing hair done soon? I am taking a month off when the baby comes, but will start back up right before Thanksgiving. Just let me know:)

Come on over I need help with mine too;) What a good idea for fhe.

The next time you need to give away some grape fruit, my inlaws love it and are always asking us to get them some. I can always send brock over and he can pick them.
