Haircuts
Yesterday I decided it was time for little Ethan to get a hair cut. The back of his hair was getting pretty long. He was looking kind of girly! I was really scared to screw it up. I couldn't have my little man looking goofy! Merci has been asking to got to a "beauty salon" for awhile now, so I did it. I made an appointment at a way too expensive hair salon for my kids. Don't ask where or how much, just know I feel guilty and will NEVER do it again. And Yes I know, Best cuts could have done the same thing! Anyway here are some pictures:

Messy long hair...

short handsome hair...

Looking like a little man, not a little baby!

Trying to be excited, even though she ended up with a 102 degree fever=(
I still need to take after pictures of her.

I am blessed
So, my previous post was about complaining about the car I do have.
Today as I was driving to and from taking Merci to school, I couldn't help but realize, how many people had to walk in the horrible rain storm. Kids were being splashed by passing cars, and mind you, those kids weren't even dressed for the rain, and I am sure they have to sit wet all day long. I saw people who probably didn't even have a warm, dry home to go to. And I sat in my car for 10 minutes because I didn't want to get a little wet from the walk to the house. I was humbled as God said, "I will provide, what are you worrying about? Have I let you down before? You have never been stranded. Quit your complaining." So I did! until I ventured tot he gas station and forked over $45 to the gas nazi's. Take time today to really reflect on the blessings God has given you! I sure will.

Oops, Gas
Well, I was going to change my template, but I didn't find one I liked better. But I did accomplish to erase all my personalized links on the sidebar. Oh well. Someday I will learn how to make my own template for my blog.
Not much exciting happening here. Same old, same old.
Sorry, I gotta complain. Gas is soooo expensive. Let me tell you about my Jeep. I drive it because it is my only car and because we can't get rid of it, still 2 more years of paying for the darn thing. (Not to bring up the fact that we will be driving it until it is nothing but and engine and steering wheel, because of the $4 grand we put into it after having it for only 3 months, yeah that is a whole other complaint). So anyway...Since we live in a city where we refuse to send our child to school, and are too poor to pay for no good "Christian" schools, we have the, I mean I have the wonderful tedious task of driving our lovely child to a school that is affordable and about 30 minutes away. I drive about 17 miles per day just taking her to school...that is CITY miles only, unfortunately. So since my wonderful Jeep only gets oh a whopping 11-12 miles per gallon, that is about $5 a day. WAIT...For some reason these number aren't working out..hmmm. No good at math. But I have to fill up my tank every 5-6 days. Costing $40+ each time. Well you do the math. And than there is Josh's truck. Getting like 8 miles to the gallon, costing us about $100 to fill up (2 tanks, since it is a truck).Let's just say, we need a miracle to get by every month! So those of you friends that have little Civic's, I don't want to hear ANY complaining! But I do love you all.
Ok Bye! (Not that any of you actually read my ridiculous blog post)
