Since I was MIA for some time. I'm about 99.9% sure I lost most if not all of my readers that aren't family.
So I'm thinking about doing a give away to get things going again.
What do you think?
Any ideas of a good give away?
So if there are any of you left out there that would like to see something FUN and WONDERFUL given away please leave me a comment!
Until Next Time,

Seriously
I'm going to play a little game I like to call seriously.
So you walk into a smoke shop and you try to buy a "tobacco pipe". When the clerk asks you for ID. You pull out your High School ASB card? Then wonder why she wont sell it to you.
Seriously you don't look a day over 15 and if you were really old enough you would have known that your ASB card wasn't going to work.
Your in the super market along with your young children. I'm guessing this is your big shopping day. Since you were there FOREVER.
Your youngest child is screaming at the top of her lungs and having the biggest temper tantrum I have ever seen a child have. You continue Shopping and your child continues freaking out.
How on earth did I end up in line next to you? Seriously couldn't you have just left and came back in the store once the fit was over?
Listening to your child isn't the way I wanted to spend my Friday night at the store.
While hunting down a dress for my maid of honor to wear to the wedding. Our first stop was with only with 4 out of 6 children. We weren't being helped then once we found something and told them we were going to be right back after we picked up the other two kiddo's from school.
We got a look of death, followed by "OH GREAT, and your going to have ALL the children when you come back"
And you seriously wonder why we decided to shop else where?
Jon and Kate series finally is on tonight. Who seriously cares to listen to them carry on about where life has taken them and listen to then talk so poorly about each other?
Seriously it should have ended a LONG time ago.
Until Next Time,

Done, Check and Almost There
Wedding is done and over with!
Thank goodness cause it was starting to make me crazy.
I'm a planner and when planning was out of my hands in placed in the loving hands of someone else. I thought about taking up drinking.
Now that we are at the End of November we have a good bit of school work for the year under our belts. While my children have no idea that in "Real School" kids get to take days and weeks at a time off for Holidays and other countless things. That is something we will not be doing... NO I'm not going to force my children to get their school work done on Thanksgiving or make them finishes all their Math before they can open whatever Santa decides to bring them for Christmas.
Even though we do our school work almost daily. I'm still searching for a better system than we are using now. I feel like every morning I run around like a Chicken with it's head cut off. Getting everyone set up for morning School work. Then just as I get them set up turn around to get things together for the next lesson they are done before I have even had a chance to take a sip of my coffee.
Oh how I envy in Duggars for having a smooth rolling homeschooling experience. Maybe by the time Avery is 10 or so we will have a good system in place.
"Hair Pulling"
If I could only get everyone moving today. That includes myself...
Our List of things to do today:
School Work
Clean
Shop for Chloe's 3rd Birthday Party
Clean some more
Get ready for Chloe's Party
Clean
Laundry
School Work
More Laundry
School Work
Shower's for everyone
Make Dinner
Eat Lunch as some point
Buy Ear plugs ( My kids are far to loud today )
Give the pups a bath
and really the list could go on forever.
So this weekend I need to get together a list for Thanksgiving and we are hosting like we do every year.
Get the house ready or at least ready enough so I don't want to die when I have a house full of people tomorrow.
I wish I could just hire a team of people to do all of this for me!
If that were only possible.
Don't even get me started on Christmas. Every year I promise myself I will be done with all my shopping by the end of October. Well it's the end of November and I haven't even thought about it yet.
"More Hair Pulling"

I survived 3 days in the wilderness well if you count camping at a camp ground with hot showers and indoor bathroom's the wilderness. I know I do....
Chloe is busy being 2 getting into everything and causing as much trouble as she can.
Between the endless laundry and mounds of school work our family has some really, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, really... BIG NEWS.
After almost 8 years and 3 babies later. MR. MONTANA and I TAYLOR ARE GETTING MARRIED!!!!!!
October 17th, 2009

Well I'm off to the store....
Until Next Time,

June 1, 2009
Today our family officially became squatters. Who would have thought that would ever happen?
Today I will be meeting with our agent and will be viewing god knows how many more homes. The goal is to be out of here within the next 2 weeks, lets just hope it happens. I don't think I would be very good at being homeless... A good friend did tell me if you stack two fridge boxes it becomes a two story home. Lets just hope that we can set up camp next to someone who is offering free WiFi.
On a different note today marks 16 days until my sweet baby girl turns 5, and 39 days until I'm the mother of a 7 year old.
I'm not sure where the years have gone....
I promise once life gets back to normal I will regain my addiction to blogging. Until then just hang in there please don't forget about us. I promise we wont be gone forever!

10 days and NO House
So the home I posted about we lost.
I haven't been blogging because we have been busy house hunting.
We have 10 days left in this home with no place to go.
I will be back to blogging once things have gotten back to normal around here.
Until Next Time,
