My Somewhere

We all have to start somewhere, and this is mine. How absolutely amazing to create and share all of the memories, happenings and celebrations that take place within our circle. Our family is enveloped of many things. Dad works insane hours to support a family of seven with almost no complaints. Mom plays the role of the ultimate multi-task manager. Our two teenage girls perceive every event in life as some sort of trauma. The two little men in our house are capable of imagining and carrying out almost any kind of mischevious adventure. And our new wee little one has managed, for a while, to turn our house completely upside down! But through all the constant craziness, we are somehow still able to pull together, support one another, and love eachother through anything that's thrown our way. This is what love for seven is all about.

MASTER IN THE HOUSE!!!

It's official!!! We have a master in the house!!! Yes, that is the little inside joke at our place right now. Steve recently took his commercial master electrician test, and passed! He had to have 8 years worth of hours in the electrical field for this license, so he has been working very hard, for a very long time. This is the end result! It is so exciting for our family. This has opened new doors for us, along with oppurtunity. Steve's Employer wants to keep him around and we are glad(he really wants to be there to). He will no longer "need" to work over time, which is what we have been working towards all along. We are excited to have him home more, especially for dinner time! Way to go babe! Thank You, I love you!
