Wow!! It is crazy to think back to 6 years ago this weekend...I was getting ready for a wedding!! It is so hard to remember that day...(which is the reason that I tend to tell people to ELOPE, VEGAS or DESTINATION WEDDING!!) We have had a whirlwind of a time though!! I am so happy to be where I am at and so excited to see what the future holds for our family! Our time line consinsts of:
A Wedding
Cooper's Birth
Moving To Lubbock
Buying Our First Home
Brylee's Birth
FINALLY I WILL FINISH SCHOOL THIS YEAR!!!!
and sooooo many things along the way!
I cannot believe how fast it goes! Cooper will be starting Kindergarten this year, Brylee will be all by herself at preschool, and I will start a new job. I know that it sounds crazy, but I miss the day we brought Brylee home. Everything was about us and our little bubble. We all sat in it and enjoyed...now we enjoy, just in a different way! We are constantly on the go and it seems like time is passing by before we know it! I love my family and I love my life. I just wanted to say that to everyone and thank you to all of you have made a difference in our lives and our kiddo's lives!! We love you all!! Bryan, Kelsey, Cooper & Brylee

Where to start...
I am sooooo very ready for what has become the fastest semester I have ever taken to be over! I have never taken summer classes before...they are different!! I like the way that you get credit for a semester in one month, but it is EVERY DAY!! BOOO!! I am thankful to Kendra...my Lubbock sister and best friend...she has helped me so much this summer by keeping the kiddos 2 days a week for the month of June!! She is BRAVE and I owe her big! I love her! Dana has been taking Friday duties, but has been luck enough to be relieved early and even off a few!!! The kids go to their PDO on Tues and Thurs and they LOVE IT!!! I know that they really do benefit from this as well!
Anywhoo, I am in my last week, have 2 finals, a presentation, a paper, and 4 assignments due!! I am going to be busy!! :O) I know that God will never give me more than I can handle, which is why I know I will survive!! I am so ready for graduation and to take life on with a new outlook!
****I am employed! I know, I know, not everyone at once...I have not had a real job in 6 years...WOW!! I will be working at Lubbock Cooper South Elementary! Cooper will be there with me and I will be able to watch his first year of school. Can you believe it...Kindergarten already!! I remember the day we brought him home from the hospital...how I miss those sweet baby kisses and the joy of knowing that we brought a precious baby into the world to raise and love! I hate them growing up...but I also love it! They are so much fun right now! Cooper is quite the little scholar. He is working on math and writing at school! We can write pretty much every letter in the alphabet, some need more assistance than others...and all of our numbers 0-9! It is exciting watching him learn! I need to thank Mrs. Jody for this, she has been a blessing to our family, and especially to our little Cooper!! All teachers need be like her! :O)
Back to life...I should graduate August 8 at 9 am!!! A much needed party will occur later in the day!! All are invited! I will begin my Master's Program on August 11, I know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am excited though!
Last for tonight...I am thrilled that Bryan and I will be celebrating our 6th Wedding Anniversary on Sunday June 28!!! It is a GREAT accomplishment and the happiest I have ever been. For those who thought we would never make it...How do you like us now??? :)
We had a couple come look at our house tonight!!!!! They want to buy it!!! WOOOOOHOOOOO!!!! They have been approved at the bank but have to sell theirs first!! They have some lookers...so please pray that we will be blessed this summer to move back to Lubbock!! I know that the Lord is working and using our lives to show us and teach us great lessons!! I cannot wait to see what those lessons are!!
Wish you all a great week and until next time.....

We are grandparents!
I know, we look so young right?! Well, we are grandparents...of 8 little puppies!! Libby, yes...once again...had another litter! She is such a hussy!! I swear! But here is how it went down!
10 pm: Libby is pacing around acting like a wierdo! I am like "GET OUTSIDE IF YOU ARE GOING TO BE ACTING ALL CRAZY!"
2 am: I hear the whine of what I thought could possibly be a cat! OH NO!! Did a cat come through the doggie door?? EWWWW!!! I get up, only to find what could possibly be the last straw in me ever having any chance of liking Libby or getting along with her! REALLY!!! I walked into Brylee's room, the light is on and she is sitting at her princess table!! "MOMMY...Look, Libby had puppies!!!" She is so sweet with her innocent little voice, which does not stop the rage that is flying through my body as I look to discover that Libby has already given birth to 3 puppies and is currently delivering the 4th! Brylee has the 3 that are already born on her table, she is wiping them down with toilet paper! Yep, that's Brylee...she is our little animal lover and she is "cleaning" them. I look at Libby..."BAD DOG, BAD BAD BAD DOG!!" Then I yell to the other end of the house..."BRYAN...YOUR DOG NEEDS YOU!!" She did sure enough have those little rats on Brylee's bed! I am so incredibly grossed out by the nasty massacre that looks like it has taken place on the bed! I AM MAD!!
Bryan says..."Just let her keep having the rest, she already ruined the comforter set and mattress...we will deal with it tomorrow"...I say "We, ummmm YOU!!!" We put Brylee into our bed with us, where she continues to talk about the puppies and ask questions about them..."GO TO SLEEP, we will talk about it tomorrow!!"
4:30 am: I wake up to Bryan trying to get Brylee back in bed, she has decided to get up and play with the puppies a little...they are screaming! Our count is up to 6 at this point!
7 am: I get up before everyone else, and yes...count the puppies...8, we are the grandparents of 8!!! Bryan gets up and immediately moves them all out to the "House" in the backyard....along with the mattress to the dump....
In 6 short weeks, they will be the sweetest little pet for someone else out there...and Libby, well, we are taking away her motherhood abilities...YEP!! She is going in for a Fixin'!!
Will update again on these little buggers later!
Even though I dont particularly want them...they are cute!
Until the next adventure....Im off to bed!
