Wee Wilson Tales

We had a great Easter hunting eggs at Corrie's. We had a flat tire on the way home. John fixed it up with the kit in our car.

We had a few bad storms and the tree at the church was completely uprooted! I finished taking my psychology classes through Walden University! My final exams were 5/10! This gives me the credentials to be able to teach psychology at NWCC. I've been stressed about the nursery, but I was so busy with school that i've hardly had time to work on it. I paid $40 to see John (not the wrestling) on 4/19...we ordered the TNA paperview that John had attended. Jax was SO excited to see his daddy on tv...until he realized that his daddy was not going to fight Hulk Hogan.Such a disappointing night!!

Well, we went to the beach last week for Spring Break. We had a great time, but it was freezing. The first day, the sand literally felt like snow. We couldn't walk in the sand barefoot. The second day was still cold, and we only lasted a little while on the beach. The third day, we had some warm weather for about 3 or 4 hours. However, the afternoon was the chilling breeze again. But, we ate some great food, and had a good time visiting with John's family. The trip has left us seriously considering the minivan issue. We had 3 carseats in the Tahoe...what a mess having to let the seat down, climb all the way back with kiddos....seriously thinking that a van would make life much easier. Just a note .... it took us 7 hours to get there while the kids were awake (bathroom breaks, snack breaks, diaper changing breaks). John & I drove home at 8:30 pm - it only took 5 1/2 hours to get home because EVERYONE slept! Makes such a difference!!! Sunrise...

We are really making progress on the outdoor kitchen! We tore down the fence at the end of summer last year. We built a concrete fence, and we will have a fireplace, fountain, and outdoor kitchen with pizza oven under a covered pergola. The best part is that inside this fenced in area, we will have a wrought iron fence leading into a kid's area. It will house the kid's playhouse, sand/water table, picnic table. Then they can walk into a separate fenced in area behind the concrete fence which will have their swing set . This area will have no gate...so no way for them to escape to the highway. Here is a picture of our fireplace. The rest of the pics can be seen on Kodak by clicking HERE ! Jax and Ronin love seeing the workers there. Especially when Grandaddy is there. Jax was talking to my Dad on the phone last Monday when the crew got there. He said to my dad, "My workers are here Gwandaddy ." Jax has been a big helper.... Ronin , not so much. He wants to walk st...

I told you I was playing catch up . . . well, we did have a great time at Cedar Hill Farms. Jax's favorite parts were the tractors, the hayride, the trainride, and jumping in the corn. Ronin's favorite was the animals. He loved them all!!

Life!!! Whewww . I just have not had time to blog. My last blog was in November, I think. Here are some of the reasons why I have not blogged, and some of these reasons will have a separate blog as part of my plan to catch up: On December 13 th , we lost my mom's brother, Uncle Mark. He lived next door to me, and was one of the kindest people I knew. I loved his dry sense of humor because he always made me laugh. He had a heart attack, and left behind his son, daughter, wife, and twin grand babies who are just about Ronin's age. It was a devastating loss to our whole family. He was only 54. Our Christmas was different this year. Lisa was in the hospital, so we were back and forth to see her. It was also the first year in my life that I did not spend the night with my parents and sister on Christmas Eve. Already emotional, I was pretty much a wreck. Overall, it went really well. But I was still sad about changing that. I started taking psychology classes through the doctoral p...
