Im Back

Hello all....Life goes on I guess...well at least on Facebook.  Its been awhile since Ive blogged, so I will catch you up.  Paige is off to college....she is attending OU. So far, so good, its only been 3 weeks.  Paris is getting ready to turn 9, and Paisley just turned 8 today.  Pallas is 5 and started Kindergarten this year.  They are all well and very good girls.  Ryan has been climbing mountains...physically and spiritually.  Me, I just sit around and watch all this happen.  I still like to work out and have been working still at the salon.  I am surrounded by forever friends and love my family.  Newark Naz is still my favorite church.  I continue to grow into the woman that God is forming. I could get a lot more detailed, but jeez, this requires way more typing than Im used to.

5 months ago...

5 months ago...I wrote a xanga post, since then I have been trying to post on myspace(franniebobannie)...wow time goes fast...I dont even think I have checked on my xanga site...never fear, I dont think I am quite ready to give it up.  Life is rolling along, with 4 children, thats a good thing.  Pallas is swimming 2 times a week, Paris and Paisley are playing soccer, which by the way is so darn cute, and Paige is finally employed and started a Steak n Shake this week for her training.  I think a few of you need to go in and give her some real training and order your hamburger with and without stuff and substitute your fries for something thats not on the menu, and order your 2 shakes with 4 different flavors and water with or without lemon, then change your mind when she brings it!  Now thats training!  Ryan just won the championship game last night in his hockey league,  they have made it to the playoffs before, but always fell short.  I he got a t-shirt, and their pic will posted and the game puck!  I am happy that it finally happened, He is estatic!  I have been singing in the choir, in order to prepare for the concert at the Midland on May 11th.  Ryan and I also joined the co-ed softball team on Thursday nights.  I still have been trying to work out on a regular basis...I wish I had more time to do it more.  I really like working out(sick, huh).

I just returned from the women of faith conference over the weekend...I attended with my sister in law, mother in law, and my own mother.  We had a really good time...we laughed alot and there were some tears shed also.  AMAZING FREEDOM...all of us have something that bogs us down, either something small everyday or some huge one time thing that tears at us continually, but AMAZING FREEDOM,  comes from surrendering it all to God, if not once but everyday if you have to...its okay to feel down, just dont stay there...

Well I have to get #3 ready for school,  I cant wait for summer break as bad as I cant wait for school to start in the fall, I am ready for a break from the monotony.

Talk to you soon

Love Peace and Hair Grease

A NEW YEAR

TODAY IS NEW YEARS EVE...

TOMORROW STARTS A NEW YEAR...I TRY NOT TO MAKE NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS, BECAUSE I TRY TO CHANGE AND SET LITTLE GOALS THROUGH OUT THE WHOLE YEAR ANYWAY. 

CHRISTMAS WAS QUICK, LIKE ALWAYS, AND THE WEATHER WAS REALLY NICE.  I LIKE THAT THE WEATHER WAS NICE, THE WHITE STUFF IS PRETTY WHEN YOU ARE STUCK INSIDE AND LOOKING OUT AT IT, BUT IM NEVER STUCK INSIDE, SO I CAN TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT.  I PREDICT MY FUTURE AS RYAN AND I BECOMING "SNOWBIRDS".

THE KIDS HAVE BEEN ENJOYING THEIR BREAK, WE KEEP BUSTING OUT NEW THINGS EVERYDAY.  WE HAVE PLAYED VIDEO GAMES, TAKEN PICTURES WITH NEW CAMERAS, HAVE ALREADY THROWN  PERMANENT MARKERS AWAY(GIVEN BY SOMEBODY WITHOUT CHILDREN)AND WORN LOTS OF NEW CLOTHES AND TRIED OUT BASKETBALL SHOES.  DONT FORGET THE SCOOTERS AND THE NEW TRIKE THAT HAS BEEN RIDDEN IN THE KITCHEN AND THROUGH THE LIVING ROOM.  SCHOOL STARTS IN 2 DAYS.

SANTA WAS SPOTTED ON CHRISTMAS MORNING...ONE TEENAGER HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT, 5 AND 6 YEAR OLD RAN THE OTHER WAY, AND THE 2 YEAR OLD CHASED AFTER HIM.   SO MUCH FOR HIM KNOWING THAT  YOUR AWAKE.

HUBBY IS WORKING 48 HOUR SHIFT STARTING AT 8 AM...I WILL BE CELEBRATING THE NEW YEAR WITH WHATEVER CHILD CAN STAY AWAKE THE LONGEST.  LET ME KNOW IF ANYONE OUT THERE WANTS TO CELEBRATE WITH US...IT WILL BE SO EXCITING...

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

PS THE ZOO LAST NIGHT WAS BEAUTIFUL.

YOUR TURN.

Hey fellow xanga members Long time no type!  I have been frequenting myspace..franniebobannie.I have been super busy since the kids started school...I have 3 out of 4 attending some sort of education place.  You would think that I got a break, but no, the time that they are there goes quickly.  Still healing pretty good, back to working out on a regular basis and trying to keep weight off..its harder to keep off then to lose. 

One of my really good friends lost her baby boy this week...thats how it started out. Very sad...but no more worrying about him.  I need to be a good friend at this time.

To the zoo we go tomorrow, small group and all.  I have the best small group...dont hate me.

Love you all
