Just a few pics...

KARMA!!!!

This is one of my favorite things in life...I joke about Karma all the time.

I didn't realize how much I joke about it, till this weekend.

Emily Klair was being silly and she was teasing me about something, I don't even remember it was a cute teasing... anyways, she goes to sit down in her chair and she pinches her finger in the chair.  She says ouch that hurt, silly KARMA!

I laughed and laughed!!

I never wish any ill will on anyone, but I do have to admit that I might get a little chuckle out of a dad at the soccer field that is one of those dads...that really are annoying, and out right rude to everyone around them, that only think of themselves and their little guy on the field. Everyone knows the type I am talking about, the ones we all can't stand, and their whole demeanor screams stuck up rudeness!!

Well yesterday, we had one of those dads. He was a dad for the other team, and well he choose to sit down right next to us!! I mean really I think I have a radar that says please come sit by me, I love it when you act like an idiot, it makes my day complete! Anywho after listening to him the whole game and hearing him talk soo ugly to what I assume was his wife on the phone, I got a big chuckle at the end of the game, when as he was walking across the field like a big man...he tripped and nearly fell flat on his face!! and what did he trip on..nothing but a big fat chunk of KARMA!!!! it was beautiful..and guess what EK turns to me and says out loud...KARMA!! gotta love that girl!!

I need a clone...

I am soo behind on EVERYTHING!!!

I think I need a clone...I can not be everywhere with everyone...

Warren's work is always crazy but it seems to be getting crazier by the day.  And the kids are running in different directions.  I can not get to one practice before I am having to turn around and get another kid to another practice.  Forget zumba there is no time, so I am trying to walk during the practices, but I miss my Zumba classes.

My classroom needs lots of help and the laundry pile is now the laundry mountain...oh and eating healthy?? really its over rated!! I just don't have time to cook the things I should be cooking..mother of the year right here folks!!!

I know that there will be a time I will look back on this craziness and not think they that we were as busy as we are, but right now I feel like I need some major help!!!

This is a test..this is only a test!!

I am hoping that this fixes the words all being smashed together...

Lets hope this took care of it!!!

And I think it did and whoo hoo so excited to get back to blogging..but for now I am off to bed!!!

cliff hanger....

I did not finish my background story in my post yesterday so I am going to finish it up today... Ok here are my siblings names just to help with telling the story. Andrea is my sister closest to me in age, my one and only brother Matthew, Jesi, and Krysi ...this is there birth order and I am the oldest of these yahoo's! I am gonna back up and tell you the story from the beginning. I was not in the wreck, I was not there first hand so this part of it is from the stories I have heard about what happened. My family was going to a friends surprise birthday party at a restaurant here in town after church on a Sunday morning. They stopped at a CVS that was right across the street from the restaurant to get a birthday card and told the kiddos in the back to stay in their seat belts only dad was running in real fast..Andrea was in college, Matthew was in jr. high, (Matthew was by the window in the second row and Andrea was in that same row by the door) and the girls (were in the very back row of the van) were in elementary school. Dad went in got the card and away they went, they stopped at the red light in the parking lot. The light turns green and remember they are only going across the street, as dad starts to pull out, a vehicle runs the red light without even stepping on the brakes. It t-bones my parents van and spins then around, as it hits my littlest sisters fly out the back side window, Andrea flips over the seat she is sitting in and lands in the back where the girls are suppose to be. She is the one that realizes they are not in the vehicle, she starts screaming the girls are gone. I know my mom and dad open doors and run before the van came to a complete stop. Andrea does not think she is hurt, and gets up to go help and see about the girls. Matthew however stays in the vehicle. One of my parents friends go and get him to come out, and have him stand with them on the side of the road. Krysi flew into the turning lane quite a distance away from the intersection, and was out cold when mom and dad got there. Jesi flew out and landed on the storm grate right by the tire of the vehicle, she was awake but very scared and hurt. This is when Warren and I came up on the accident. As the ambulances were pulling away with my sisters in them headed to the life flight pad, (my parents and andrea were in there with the little ones), I noticed my brother and ran to get him, we get him in the car and away we go to the helicopter pad. As we are driving my brother starts freaking out, trying to get out of the car, asking over and over how we got there what was going on, where was mom and dad and where are we going?? and so on and so on..over and over!! It took all I had to keep him in the car. When we pull up I see dad and run to get him to come check out Matthew (my dad was a firefighter/emt) when he got there to check on him he realized immediately he had a head injury. So he sees the girls get loaded into the helicopter and made sure that mom, me and Andrea had a ride to Vanderbilt to meet the girls. Dad and Warren take Matthew to the local ER to get checked out. He ended up having a pretty good concussion and if the girls were not at Vanderbilt after being life flighted they would have kept him to make sure he was ok, instead they let him go with a list of instructions for us and orders for what to do and where to take him at Vanderbilt if he started to show any signs. What we now know is that Matthew took the brunt of the impact and was probably knocked out when Andrea discovered the girls were not in the vehicle, but no one even noticed because after hearing the girls were not in there everyone got out as fast as they could to get to them. Matthew is lucky he did not get hurt any worse then he did. Andrea was started to feel pain in her back and her knee, and we were all really worried about the girls. They finally came and told us they would be transported to the ICU for the night and that Krysi still was not awake fully. I know this is a long story and even longer when it is not spaced but no one can figure out why it is doing it..so sorry again if you are still reading this. Jesi ended up with a broken collar bone but was overall ok. She only stayed one night in the ICU and was dismissed a couple days later. Krysi woke up the next day and bless her heart her face was soo swollen she looked bad, but she was ok, her hip was not broken like they thought, no bones broken minus a skull fracture and a small brain bleed, that stopped on its own. She was in the hospital for a week, and we are soo thankful and blessed that day could of been much more tragic. WE all bear some scars from that day, and mine happen to be that whenever I see emergency vehicles I have a slight panic attack thinking that someone I know and love is hurt. It takes my breathe away every time I hear one, or get out of the way of one, and seeing them at the school proved how much to me I need to get some help for it. When I wrote that we are blessed, I mean it, the first people on the scene were friends of ours that go to church with us, both of which saw the accident as they were getting out of the car to go into the restaurant what makes these two particularly people such a blessing?? They are both doctors, and got my sister Krysi breathing before the ambulances got there...there are so many details to this story I don't feel like I did it justice but I tried.

PANIC ATTACK...

FIRST OFF THIS BLOG IS KILLING ME NOT ALLOWING ME TO SPACE THIS POST...SO SORRY!!!! I KNOW IT IS HARD TO READ ALL PUSHED TOGETHER... SO let me give you a little back ground on me and emergency vehicles... One Sunday after church before Warren and had kids ( I had just had my second miscarriage) we were on our to lunch with his family. As we pulled onto one of the main roads here in town we were met with an ambulance, we pulled over and got out of it's way. A few yards later another ambulance came flying up behind us and we got of it's way. At this point we could see that there was a really bad wreck up ahead. I can not explain it, but even from to far away I knew that it was bad and that it was someone I loved. As we got closer I saw that there was green mini van....and my heart jumped into my throat. Warren says I sounded possessed as I said " that's my family" he then reassured me that there are many a green mini vans and not to jump to the worst possible scenario first. I told him in my possessed manor, "pull over that is MY FAMILY!!" He pulls over, and I jump out of the car, and run to the scene, and what I see is my 2 littlest sisters laying on the ground really far from the vehicle. My mom and dad are with the youngest and the one that flew out of the vehicle the furthest, and I can tell the emergency people were working on her. I found my sister that is closest to me in age bent over holding my other sisters hand that had also flown out the window and landed right by the vehicle. I just kinda stood there, in disbelief. I looked for my brother and saw him standing on the side of the road with some friends of my parents. He looked ok, so I went to be with my two sisters...the other was being loaded into the ambulance to be transported to the life flight pad. I will blog more about this story another time because trust me when I say there is a lot to it and well I don't want to rush it. So yesterday when I topped the hill to get to the kids school and saw 3 firetrucks, lots of police, and an ambulance, what I had could not be described as a panic attack but more of a complete and utter freak out! I called Warren at work and well couldn't breathe, couldn't talk, and all I could manage to say was firetrucks kids school emergency. He again the voice of calm said, "do not worry if it was bad we would know about it" he reminded me to breathe, and stay calm. Let's just say I tried, I sat there in car rider line wondering what was happening if the kids were safe, if anyone had been hurt, the concerns and questions just kept rolling on in my mind. I then called one of my friends that has children at that school and figured she was in car rider line and that maybe we could comfort each other, but she had a funny feeling before the storm and had signed her kids out early, so she was home unaware of what was happening. Her husband is a cop here in town so I guess she could hear the terror and panic in my voice and she told me she would call him and get right back to me. That is when I found out everyone was safe and it was just the roof that had blown off..really?? did I just write it was JUST the roof?? It took me over an hour to get to my kids and they were fine, EK was shook up and said she wanted me but said a prayer while the loud noises were happening to keep her safe and calm till momma could get there, and Tyler said he was not scared but he sure had that yea soo glad momma is here look when I finally got to him! They left there backpacks, coats, everything but what they had with them when the storm hit...after we got home and settled a bit Tyler ( have I ever told you he is just like his daddy)says "at least no homework tonight momma." I don't have any pictures to show you but am trying to get some. 4 classrooms are pretty much destroyed, and the whole hallway that those are on sustained some pretty good damage. The school did a great job at keeping the kids safe, they had a plan they worked their plan and it paid off with no one getting hurt, and yes it was JUST a roof....it can be fixed, and it can be replaced. I hugged my kids tighter last night, and if I never ever see emergency vehicles at the school again it will be ok with me...

who is the girl that forgot her camera?? oh me that's who....

Well, there are no pictures of this trip for me.... Of course I have been tagged in some pretty not cool, very bad pictures from the kids on facebook, but none from my camera... Why is that you ask?? Well..... (which by the way is a story in itself..who knew the word WELL could get a story, but trust me it did..haha) everyone that knows me knows that I am not a morning person!! So the Sunday when we left home before 6 that morning I totally was on auto pilot. I had packed everything the night before..so shower and walking out the door was all I was really awake enough to do. So my nice camera got left behind, so no fun pictures for my blog, no funny pictures for memories, and I could just kick myself for that!! I had a really good time. The teens were great, and learned a lot of new tennis skills, and we all loved the warm sunshine and beautiful water at the beach. I missed my kids, and my hubby. I know they had the best week though. The kids got to go to everyone they love houses..from granny and pa's to nanny and d's to their aunt Stephanie's to play with there cousins...a good time was had by all and I am thankful that they are loved by so many and that they helped us out last week!! Back to school for me on Tuesday, and I am now on count down mood....as much as I love those little ones I love my summers home with my kiddos. It reminds me of when they are little and I got to stay home with them..and as much as I love spring break it makes me long for summer days with my kiddos!! So let the count down begin....
