Family Time

My sweet little family is full of energy come the evenings.. Personally after working all day, cooking and cleaning up dinner. I would like to go and sit in my chair with my feet up. However, forever thing there is a season.. and I wouldn’t miss this one for the world!

Tuesday after getting the kitchen cleaned back up we took the kids to the park to attempt to fly their kites again. This time SUCCESS!

Of course Cadence carried more about the flowers (weeds) the trying to fly her kite!

Curt was able to get his going once we moved to the big hill.

Brett was able to get Cadies up as well!

Beautiful evening - love my family!

Eight Year Ago..

I married my best friend. I had no clue how much I would grow to truly love this man! - I am learning daily to submit as Brett leads our family. The funny thing is, submitting is so much easier than leading. So thankful for Brett!!

We spend our anniversary exactly how I would have chosen! Brett and Curtis played softball, while Cadie and I cooked dinner. Then we all went for a walk! After the kids were in bed, Brett and I watched a movie!

Easter 2012

If being honest, dying eggs in probaby on top ten dislike list! - however I smile and do it for my babies!

After Sunday brunch and worship we had our annual Easter egg hunt behind our church building. The little ones always get a heard start..

Everyone else waiting to go!

Obviously, my husband enjoys taking pictures of the Berning children!

and Bethany

Our last Easter with just the four of us!

Cadence loves to play with Jayden, and was super excited to see that they had the *same dress on*

Many ofour family came back to our house to celebrate Easter! It was a super blessed and much needed day together! - So thankful for a risen Savior!

Today.. it’s too much

I try really hard not to complain on either my blog, or facebook, or in general. Except to my poor husband who gets to hear frequently things that I find irritating.

However today I am feeling the pressure of the responsibilities I have taken on. I have so many blessings, and overall balance my MANY hats pretty well. However after an hour meeting with the Autism specialist today about the plans for the next school year, I am emotionally drained. - I was informed today that because of class sizes (and behavior loads) I will be team teaching next year. I am not excited to share my classroom with another teacher (he/she will have their own room however I will be sharing mine throughout the day since I have a promethean). I also know that if I want to have any say in where and how my things are moved I will be spending some time (more than I would like, having a newborn) in my classroom.

Choosing to take a deep breath and remember that for right now I am hormones with feet.

Another Birthday

My Grandma Coslett and I always celebrate our birthdays together with at least a cake! So blessed to have yet another birthday with her!

Love her so much!

My grandma with all of her great grandchildren.. well we tried!  

Let’s fly a kite..

Friday after work Brett and I took the kids to the park so that we could fly their kites. Unfortunately there was not enough wind to keep the kids kites in the air, but we still had fun trying!

Of course trying to feed the ducks a piece of bread is always a fan favorite!

Are you ready for some Football?!

Curtis is playing flag football - and LOVES it!

I found Cadie’s cheerleader outfit at a garage sale for $2.00 - can’t b eat that!

We are really enjoying watching Curtis play football!
