So everyone knows how I LOVE my nightly hot bubble bath! If I could only take it without eyes staring at me the whole time!!!!

When you close your eyes to relax in the tub, you don't expect to open them to this......

He's BACK!!

Our friendly Elf has made his come back for the season. This afternoon when we got home he was sitting right on our fireplace. It appeared as if he just BUSTED right out the box. He also, brought and surrounded himself with mini candy canes! YUMMY!

I hope the kids are good, so he has good things to report back to Santa!!!

Love to all,

Day 71, 72, 73, 74 and 75 of 365

Five days in one post here for the Ramirez family. What a GREAT Thanksgiving we had! We traveled to Alabama for a mini reunion with the Jackson family! We got to spend 5 straight days with my Aunt, Uncle and Cousins. It was a FULL house, TONS and TONS of food, LOTS of laughs and a good time! We are so Thankful for each and everyone that we spent the holiday with!

Spending quality time with the family was great! But for me spending so much quality time with my 'miracle' cousin Chris was the best. Chris is my cousin who we all prayed for constantly 3 years ago. He was in a terrible car accident that left him paralyzed. But his wonderfully high spirits and great attitude - ALONG WITH TONS OF PRAYERS have brought him a long way!!! We are so Thankful for him and how far he has come!

The Jackson Cousins:

Thanks again Aunt Kathy and Uncle Kenny - WE HAD A GREAT TIME!!!!

Love to all,

Day 60 of 365

After playing a another season of Rec Soccer, Tristan got picked for the Rincon Allstars Team. This weekend they played in a Savannah Tournament. They played great soccer making it to the Championship Game. They ended up taking 2nd place, we are still very proud of how they played. Way to go Rincon Raiders!

It makes me miss playing soccer SO MUCH!

Day 58 of 365

The Ramirez Hunting Morning!!

Since us girls (and Jackson) can't take the cold its only a hunting morning!

On the way to the hunting club at 5:30, we had the most excitement! A buck came out charging across 21 and we missed him by a hair! Needless to say we didn't see much more after that! But the family time together is the BEST!

Day 57 of 365

Sophisticated me on the way to my
J-O-B! The job I love to complain about but that I am so very Thankful for! Hoping for a non-stressful day since its my Friday! Have a Blessed Day everyone!

Day 56 of 365

It was haircut day today!! I love some fresh haircuts on kids...but for some reason its such a fight to get them there! They look even cuter now!!!

I love my babies!

Day 55 of 365

There is NO better sound than children's laughter! It really makes my heart smile. All though the laughter doesn't last long around here...it can change in just seconds to arguing words.

Kids also go through toys/game phases. Lately the Wii, that we've had for several years, has been the game of choice around here! The kids will play it for hours or until a fight breaks out! So I caught them playing within the few minutes they were getting along!

Day 50 of 365

WooHoo - It's Day 50!!

Today I'm a little concerned about our female boxer - Zoe. She is either trying to fake us out with a 'Fake Pregnancy' or this girl has gotten knocked up AGAIN! We have bread her twice with our male boxer - Jake - on purpose. But this time, I'm thinking they snuck around our back and did something they weren't suppose to do! The last litter was so hard to get rid of, plus Jake is kind of on the old side, we had decided not to breed them again!

You decide:

(Praying it's a FAKE PREGNANCY! (because there is a such thing for dogs))

Love to all,

Day 49 of 365

Today I just want to express how Thankful I am for my Loving, Caring, Hardworking Husband! He makes me so proud to be his wife every single day! Not only does he work hard at his job to support his family, but he spends quality time with each of us, he finds time to Worship the Good Lord, and he finds time to voluntary any extra time he has to those in need.

Lately, Jose has been volunteering some of his extra time at the Faith Equestrian Therapeutic Center, Inc., in Guyton, GA. This is a place that offers therapeutic horseback riding lessons to children and adults with all types of mental, physical and emotional challenges. These activities helps them build their confidence and self esteem. It is a non-profit organization that loves for people to come out and volunteer their time and share their love to these children!

He loves spending his time there! He said he Thanks God everyday for allowing him to be party of these children's lives. The expressions on these children's faces, in the below pictures, ARE PRICELESS! They just melt my heart! I see why he loves it so much!

Thank you Lord for giving him to me! Thank you for his kind, loving, generous, soft heart! I couldn't ask for a better husband and father for my children! AMEN

Love to all,

Day 48 of 365

Here is a woman makes me laugh everyday!

For those not from the Rincon area - this woman works for several different businesses in the area. She stands on the corners dressed up, singing loud (notice the boom box on the ground), dancing, waving and just acting crazy trying to lure in business! I'm thinking it must work because she is always on a corner. Heaven for bid don't honk at her or she will give u a real show!
