Ok here goes nothin!!!

  Yep I FINALLY did it!! This busy Momma is starting a blog!!! I have thought about it from time to time but I didn't really see the point since I have a facebook. BUT thanks to my dear friend Kristi I decided that I would go ahead and start one because it would be a good way to tell the story of my life for all my friends and family and for those who would like to keep up with my CRAZY life!!

  Ok so let me tell you a bit about myself if you don't already know me:) My name is Amber  and I am 33 years old. I am a happily married mother of 2 beautiful girls and 2 wonderful boys! So now you see why I say we have a crazy life!! Me and my husband have been married for 6 years but we have been together a total of 10 years!!! We have been through so much in those 10 years and I couldn't imagine spending my life with anyone else but him! Oh my husbands name is Jimmy (James) and he is currently working in the oil field. He works some CRAZY hours! I am a stay at home mom that now has extra time on my hands!! So I have started walking and volunteering at my son's pre-k class. I am VERY blessed that I can be a part of my children's class and be there for them in the most important time in their lives!! So you can already tell that I am a VERY involved parent which means I go to all their class parties and field trips! Which also means I will be posting lost of pics of all of our adventures!!! My camera is my 5th appendage!! I carry it with me EVERYWHERE!!! I am not a professional but I love taking pics!! Also being a mother of 4 I have found that I am very crafty! I love to make things so I may also post about new things I have made from signs to Halloween costumes! As for ME time I haven't had much of that in the last 10 years so I have put on quiet a bit of weight. Having 4 kids didn't help that much either!!  So  I have been on the Body by Vi Challenge for the last 5 months and between drinking my shakes and walking I have lost a total of 34 pounds!! WHAOOOO!! That is a big accomplishment for me!! And like I said now that all of my kids are in school I have plenty of ME time:) I hope everyone is ready for me! I am a lil scatterbrained  and some of my posts may seem a lil odd but I hope someone out there gets where I am coming from and helps them in some way!

  With all that being said I have plenty to blog about! Some will be good and some will be rants! I hope that by what I blog about it helps others to see that their lives are just as crazy as everyone else's and we all struggle in different areas in our lives. Hopefully  we can all pitch in to make life a little easier!! You know that saying "It takes a village to raise a child"? Well with social networking and blogging that has broadened our reach as parents to be able to get opinions and tips to help out with our everyday lives! I look forward to hearing from all of you and hearing about your lives! Welcome to my crazy life!!!
