Well, today was a great day. Chris and I surprised Bryson with White Sox tickets. We had a get together Sunday night for his birthday. We let him know in the card that he opened up from us that we were going to the game today. Well, it wasn't the greatest weather, it was down right NASTY, we had a wonderful day. (BTW, Chris and I were the coolest parents in the world today!) Bryson really enjoyed every minute of it. His face was absolutely priceless when we walked into the stadium to go to our seats. Morgan was very well behaved. It might have had something to to with the nap she took through the home run and fireworks. Anyway, it turned out to be a great birthday in spite of the weather. I'm not sure which he was more excited about, the game or the fact that he missed school. Well, when I figure out how to get some pictures on here I will post some of us at the game. I hope you all have a wonderful week!
Take care!

TGIF!
I LOVE WEEKENDS! Being a working mom, to me there is nothing better than the weekend to spend time with the family without feeling rushed to do the things that need to get done during the week. I don't know what it is with me lately, but I have been the biggest scatter brain! I can't remember things, I have misplaced things, and I truly believe that if my head was not attached to my body I would forget where I put that too! Other that that, I'm right on track.
So let me give you some details about the family....
Chris, my husband is almost 39. (oh so close to the BIG 40! HA!) I give him a hard time about it, but I go by the saying that you are only as old as you feel. He is a wonderful husband and father. He adores his kids and he is so hands on with them. He is in sales and he is a sport nut. I love him to death!!!
Trevor, a.k.a. Boo-boo, is our 15 year old. My husband and I met when he was six years old. (It's crazy how time flies!) He is a very loving, caring, smart, and gifted kid. He has aspirations of being a producer, actor, writer someday, and let me tell you, I believe he will be someday. He has such a gift for writing! He must get that from his mom, because Chris can write, but Trevor, he is just an amazing writer! Trevor is at that age where he is always on the go with friends. Oh and by the way, he about gave me a heart attack when he told me, gulp, that he is getting his permit NEXT WEEK!!!!!! My head is still spinning from the news. His mom has taken him out driving a couple of times, but neither Chris or myself have found the courage to do that yet. Not that he is a bad driver, but I am just in shock that my Boo-boo is driving. He loves to read and is an awesome big brother to all of his siblings!
Bryson, a.k.a. Bubbee, is our seven year old! He is a complete sport nut like his daddy and a DIE HARD White Sox fan. Bryson is very competitive! He plays soccer, baseball and basketball. He doesn't like to lose. His daddy is his best friend in the whole world and he loves and love to pick on his little sister. Him and Trevor have a special bond. He loves when Trev is staying with us. They play together, and now that Bryson is older, I think Trevor enjoys no having to play with little toy figurines. It's more like baseball, catch, basketball, etc. Bryson is a very smart boy. Straight A's in school. He loves to make people laugh. He is such a clown that he would do almost anything for a laugh. Sometimes that can get him into a little trouble. But he has a tender heart and still lets his mom and dad pull him up on our laps for some good ole' snuggling. He has always been a snuggler since he was a baby.
Morgan, a.k.a Morgie or Paigy, is our five year old daughter. I just have one word.....WOW! Girls are so different from boys! I learned that the day I gave birth to her. Let's get this straight, I knew boys and girls were different, but I guess having kids puts it into a little better perspective. Morgan loves the Disney Princesses. Her favorite color is purple, just like mom, and she has got a great imagination. She will play with you, or by herself. She is very shy. We got her into the pre-school program at school because she was so shy that she would literally cling to our legs. I thought there was something really wrong with her. Come to find out that unlike myself, Morgan is just very shy and in fact does not need counseling. I am a very outgoing person who doesn't mind attention and loves to get in front of crowds to sing on the praise team at church. I was very active in our community theatre group prior to having kids. So with that, I really have a hard time understanding why it is so hard for my baby girl to get in front of people. She is quite a gem and loves her brothers and is a Daddy's girl through and through.
So that just about wraps this blog up. I hope to get this blogging thing figured out a little more so that I can post some pics for you. I am hoping that I can keep family around the states updated on family stuff.
God bless!

I've never blogged before!
Well, this is all new to me. I have never blogged before, and I have chosen 10:30 at night to start. This working mom of three is walking on the wild side. So my name is Julie and I am the proud mom to three beautiful childen. I have been married to my loving husband Chris for 8 years. Since it is very late, and I have to get up at 5:30am, I am going to let this be all I say for today. This is kind of fun and exciting!
