Wanna Gain A Few Pounds??

Cookie dough in the bottom of a 9x13 pan....
Layer of oreos on top......

A box of prepared brownie mix spread over that....

Bake....

Top with vanilla ice cream and chocolate syrup....Eat and gain a few pounds!! And a belly ache! :o) This was really good for something different!

One of the kids took this, not too good, but not too often there is a picture of me holding her or even with my own kids!

I like this picture!

Wild Chic! I didn't get her hair combed after her shower.

Cutie!

We got to watch Calissa the other night, we enjoyed it! (Although she pooped and peed on me!) Ryan looks pretty good holding babies if you ask me!! Always thought he did!!

Why I have the title I have on my blog...

Nichole trying to balance on one foot.


Landyn acting like a punk, for some reason he likes to make it a habit.















Devon acting like...hmm...his daddy! :o)










The Three Stooges!

The girls pick out their own pj's by the way, they normally match pretty good. Not tonight!

This picture of Courtney cracks me up, she was acting like a ninja.

In case you wonder why I cat exhausted or grumpy or rather frustrated....this ought to give you a good example of rather normal days! They all had baths and were suppose to be winding down...that didn't happen.

A Picture....

Came across this picture today, I thought by now I'd be able to deal with losing, but it isn't happening, it is like a bad dream that I can't wake up from. Derek and Ryan went to school together for 3 years as well as working at the same place so Tyra and I (and kids) got to spend alot of time together on school nights. It was nice for both of us, made dreading school nights with our husbands gone go by alot quicker! :o) Courtney asked me this week when Aunt Tyra was coming back, cause she missed her and wanted to see her, as emotional as it is, it is exciting explaining to her about Heaven and the privilege of serving God! I know she doesn't understand it all but she told me she was ready to go to Heaven so she can see her!
When people are special to your kids and love them, it makes you ( as a mama) love and appreciate those people all the more! I hope I showed it!

HELP......

Anyone have any ideas on how to get rid of snakes or catch snakes..? We have killed 5, one mama, 4 babies, they have been in walk out of basement and in basement. :o( Looks as if we killed mama, she had laid her lovely eggs and they must have hatched but now it is a matter of getting all of them, they can have anywhere from 10-15. Trust me, I have already freaked out, worried, etc. We have warned the kids (they have toy snakes as well) to not touch a snake if they see one and holler for us or get us. I have put sticky traps out everywhere and was told about snake repellent , haven't had time today to go to Orchelins to see if they have any and how it works. Any other ideas that will help? Until then I guess I will be sleeping with one eye open.

Advice for the day:

SPANDEX IS A PRIVILEGE, NOT A RIGHT!! :o)

~Cake~

There is a reason I don't decorate cakes for a living! As you can tell!

I was asked last night to make a cake for Pastor Appreciation for Cherryvale Church! I wasn't 100% happy but after 4 1/2 - 5 hrs I decided I was done! I figured farming would be more appropriate than flowers! :o)

~Hamilton Family~

We went to the park the other night to try to take some pictures! Given the fact that I have a crummy camera and there were 4 kids....I thought they weren't half bad! I edited and tried new things, thus the variety! :o)
