Catching up - My apologies!

Wow! I guess you never know who is reading your blog until you fail to blog for over a month! My apologies to the loyal friends who do read this! I cannot believe it has been a month since I did this! I know I am busy but geesh! I will TRY to do better but absolutely no promises! :) Life has been busy but wonderful here with The Reeves Bunch! Kourtnee and Sydnee are living with us now and we love having them both here. Kourt has a new job and it seems to be going well. Sydnee is growing so fast, we can hardly believe our eyes each day! She is becoming more and more vocal and smile all the time. All you have to do is look at her and say anything and she gives you the biggest smile ever! She is absolutely precious!! We were blessed this Easter Weekend to have all of our kids and both grand kids with us! It was an awesome weekend, with one exception. Saturday Keara and Brianna left to move to their new home with their new mommy and daddy. Don't get me wrong - we are thrilled about their new family, it was just very difficult watching them go. Keara had a very tough time leaving and that made Brianna have a tough time and it took a while for them to get in the van and go, but they eventually did. I have since talked to their mommy and have heard them in the background and all seems to be going very well thank God!! They have a very bright future and I am so happy for them. We also had Haven and Trinity with us on Saturday. Haven is a young lady who we had in our home for a very short respite while she was in foster care. She was pregnant and now of course has the baby. We had lost touch with her, but now are back and she has been here the past 2 Saturdays since we got in touch with her. We have just "adopted" them both so that is another daughter and grand daughter! we told her that once you enter our home no matter how long you are here you are our child forever!!! Alex, Angela and Aiden were here also. Aiden is getting so big, walking and talking some and just so adorable! We miss them, but are happy to see them when we get to/. Alex and Angela are doing well they are so happy and in love just as they should be! The other kids had a great time seeing their big brother and nephew and they enjoyed Easter. Saturday we had a big egg hunt here at the house and we had about 15 or so kids. we had 2 hunts one - under 4 and one for 4 - 12. It was a big hit. It was so last minute due to the plans for the girls departure that we were unable to invite everyone we wanted to invite. We also had Bryce, Maddy and their mom Penny from our 4H group with us. They have become family as well. I really think we should have membership cards for our family. If we charged membership fees we could get rich!!! :) Nah, we could never do that! We just love people! We love to share our Love and our joy and the blessings God has given us with others! So to recap the last month:
Larry and I celebrated our anniversary in Feb., Kourtnee and Sydnee moved in with us, kids are doing great in school, Barrel season started and Kristofer had his first run, Marlee is training a new horse - Sooner- for barrels, Easter came and went and we had a house full and a wonderful time, Ke and Bri have a new mommy and daddy - a forever family- and we love them! We are blessed!!!
I hope you all have had a wonderful month and I will do my best to blog more often.
Remember God is good all the time!!!
