What can I say, I have tried bloggin before but quickly fell out of it. Now I'm a woman on a mission....for now right? In a nut shell I'm a busy full-time working mommy to three of the most amazing boys God every graced this earth with. I have been married to my wonderful husband for over 10 years now...not always easy and far from perfect, but amazing none-the-less! Here's a quick background on myself and my wonderful family...
Me: Again, I work full time outside the home, I love anything that has to do with my boys, they are my greatest accomplishment! I grew up in a small family with my mom, my sister and myself. My mom has been married three times (so far, that's a WHOLE other story!) so we had my step-dad #1 around for 8 years and then my current step-dad (#2) since I was 15. My sister (my best friend!!!) is mostly a stay-at-home mom, but she does AMAZING professional photography on the side. I have one nephew and one niece from her and my brother-in-law! I also have a wonderful step-brother who is engaged to be married in June. He and I have been very close, as he is only three years younger than I! I am very close to my family, as crazy as we all may be, right?!?!? I met my husband just weeks after turning 17 and fell in love the second I met him. When I met him I didn't want to get married or have children......so imagine my surprise when I learned that he wanted to marry me, with an even bigger surprise: he asked me and I actually said yes! LOL! We married 5 months before I turned 19 and a month and half later found out I was expecting our first blessing!
The Hubby: My husband is in law enforcement and a very serious person. He's an avid movie watcher and John Wayne is his hero! He loves his boys and family, even the dogs more than he will ever admit or show! LOL! He is the third of four children and has a very large family....which I LOVE and adore! So far there are 27 with us and one on the way!!!! Come July we will be a happy, cozy, "little" family of 28! It is absolute choas and the most fun ever!!! I am very close to my in-laws and we all live relatively close (with the exception of his little sister). Hubby's family consist of: Dad & Mom, married 41 years this year. Oldest Sister & her hubby (Married 19 years) and have six awesome children Nephews: 18 years old, 14 years old & 9 years old and Nieces: 12 years old, 7 years old and 3 years old. Yes they are the Brady bunch of our family and just amaze me everyday!!! Hub's brother is four years older than him and married to his wife for 13 years this year. Together they have 5 children, although sadly their beautiful daughter Arianna has now grown wings and with our Lord & Savior. Their four incredible children with them are Nephews: 11 years, 7 years and 1 year and my pretty niece who is 9 years! Next in the line of children comes my husband and then the youngest, his sister and her husband...married 8 years in March have four children and one still baking in the oven! Nephews: 7 years, 5 years and 1 year and my adorable niece who is 4! It is such a blast when we all get together, which is quite often...providing no sickness strikes, which seems to be happening in this time of year. We also all, yes ALL 27.5 of us take a large family vacation every year! It is purely the definition of awesome!
Our oldest "baby" Kalib, will turn 10 in May! He is an avid "outdoorsman" and loves to hunt, farm and work...yes he loves to work. Whether it's cleaning the shed, the yard or fixing something broken. He is an amazing little boy with more work ethic than most grown men! Kalib is in third grade and has lots of friends! He loves to wrestle, play football, play soccer and baseball! He loves his friends and brothers and has a huge heart of gold!
Our middle "baby" Ethan, will turn 8 in June...wow it sounds so weird saying that. Ethan is our petite guy and for some reason I have the hardest time admitting that he is growing up. He is our gamer...big time! He plays any video or computer game you put in front of him and you can see his big hazel eyes light up amid all the freckles when he has the chance to play!!! Ethan is in 2nd grade and plays sports as well, although I am sure it more because his brothers do and not by his choice. He would much rather sit at home and play video games...so it's a good thing we don't allow that! LOL! Ethan also enjoys baseball, wrestling and football.
Our "baby-baby" Jaxon (Jax for short) just turned 6 in November! He is the biggest hearted-bully in the world LOL! Jax is nicknamed "Dozer" by my father-in-law and for good reason. This little guy is an ox...he doesn't even know his own strength. He is forever faithful to his mommy though! There is not a day that does by that Jax is sitting by me or running up to me to hug me and say "I Love You, Mommy!". Although his brothers are all my "protectors" he is definitely my lovey one! Jax is in Kindergarten and also enjoys sports and any other reason to be rowdy!
That about sums up our "Lucky Little Family" and we appreciate you taking the time to get to know us and follow in our crazy endeavors!
Love & Blessings to all,
Chrystal
