"I'm fighting for the girls who never thought they could WIN." - Nicki Minaj

One last quick update...

Please keep me in your prayers on Friday, March 23rd. I'm having MAJOR oral surgery to remove my wisdom teeth that are impacted. Usually that isn't a big deal but they will be removing some of my jaw bone to get to one and the uppers are in my sinus cavity. I'll be under Anesthesia, luckily. The doctor said recover time is around 5 days unless I get a dry socket.
*I've had one non impacted wisdom tooth removed, followed the rules to a T and got a dry socket... that hurt worse than recovering from a C section!

Anyway, if you'll pray that the surgery goes well and of course that I wake up from Anesthesia, I would appreciate it.
**Ricky hates when I say things like that but the reality is sometimes people don't wake up! But I want to be around a long, long, long time so pray it all goes well.
And that the kids and Ricky adjust to taking care of me!!! I see a little bell ringer thing in my near future ;)

THANKS!

Krista

DECIDE WHAT TO BE AND GO BE IT!

Ok, so I've went so long without adding any pictures and now I'm adding a 100... just kidding! Anyway, it has been a really busy month around here with the trip to Arizona, house upgrades, fence, etc. I can't believe it's already the 17th but am so happy we are a month and 2 days away from VACATION! 
I've been trying to start planning the kids' second birthday party. The plan was to have it a the clubhouse in our neighborhood but it is occupied the weekend of their birthday. I hope maybe we can have all the home improvements done by then and just have it here but Ricky really doesn't want to do that... we'll see but I'm so excited about their party because it will be Sesame Street. We are huge fans around here! 
Madi and her Nike's didn't make it into this patch of pictures. I need to download more from my phone and I hope to do that soon.

Arizona has the coolest looking plants. This one was at my hotel.

This was my first time ever going to a place like this so I couldn't get over all the "just dirt" 






Madi Faith while we were waiting to get her skull X Ray after her concussion 

of course this was hours after her fall and boy oh boy at the freak out that was about to happen while they did the x rays! 

She wore herself out from all of the screaming at the hospital 

I'm SO excited about this... a sneak peek at things to come :) 

why mom wakes up at the foot of the bed! 

SOOOOO EXCITED about this. This is our master bathroom. It was one long mirror and my brother added what will be adjustable shelf and framed the mirror

bead board in our master bath with our new tile!! 

the kids' super fun bathroom. We had the mirror framed

This is looking in from our living room. It use to have really ugly cabinets above the sink but one day I decided to rip them out so we framed this up. We will have the painters paint this white.

ok, so we have "builder grade" cabinets which coming form a family of carpenters, it's a little hard to get use to.Anyway, we added trim to the tops and it transformed these into boring and ugly to not to bad!
