Summing it up with very few words...

Money Issues:

-Not Fun!
-Washing machine breaks. (April 2008 ~ been doing laundry at folks house)
-Washing Machine, cannot be fixed after many tries. Need to buy a new one. (Before I get too pregnant)
-Old Debt "technically not ours" threatens us. We have to pay!
-A/C goes out. (May 10, 2009) We need to wait to fix it.
-(2 days later) my tire blows up. Replace that one and the other back tire that's about to die.
-Cannot last without A/C any longer and a guy is coming today (May 27,2009). We will find a way.
-Rusty needs new glasses.
-Olivia needs to go to the dentist.

Amidst all of that, we have a roof over our head, food in our bellies, our health, the gospel, family and friends that love us and have been there to help us out!

Happy Times:
-Memorial Day = fun day as a family.

-Went on a family drive to nearby resort and walked around the gardens.

-Splurged on Soup and Salad at Olive Garden.

-Looked at a washer and dryer.

-Got Brayden brand new shoes for $4.00 (they even have Lightning McQueen from the movie CARS on them.) Poor Brayden has needed new shoes for a while now.

-Went Swimming as a family, my Mom and Dad joined us. Brayden LOVES the water.

His favorite thing was jumping off of the side into the pool (with us catching him of course).

-had frozen Pizza and watched a movie with the family. It was a great day!
