Yesterday after church me, sam and our friends CJ, Diana, Mike and Chris went to the beach to play frisbee. Diana didn't want to play so she just layed on the beach, so that left me with all the boys. At first it was fun but then they all took off their shirts and it got serious. :) After I got knocked down by my own husband, I was done...it was too much for me! So I went and hung out with Diana...it was so fun and relaxing to just sit on the beach and watch the waves, I really like being at the beach! Here are a few pics...

HE GOT ONE!
Yesterday, my husband that I love so much got his FIRST sale!! YAY!
We've been here in VA Beach for a little over a week and Sam has been out knocking doors trying to sell people alarm systems and he hasnt had very good luck and he was starting to get really discouraged! But yesterday he got one! We are so happy cuz our funds are running low! :)
I'm so proud of him though, its not easy convincing people to buy an account...mostly because, well for example, in order for Sam to sell someone an account he has to go into their house and show them where they would put different things for the system, fill out paperwork and what not..so its hard for any guy selling to get into a house cause people aren't usually too pumped about letting a complete stranger walk around your house! ESPECIALLY a big brown stranger...so Sam's had a rough time! But I think now his spirits will be higher so he'll keep on selling! (please bless)
Anyway, that's all! We are happy here so far, we have a cute little apartment and are both starting to enjoy our jobs! I'm just now really catching on to how things work and what to do exactly so my job's going great!
That's all for now..loves to everyone!

THE BEACH!!
Yesterday afternoon me and Sam's friends wifes Diana and Brittanie(and her cute son Blake) went to the beach! It was kind of cold so we didn't wear our swim suits, but we did roll up our pants and walk in a little ways. Me and Diana were trying to see how far out we could go and when a wave would come we'd run back to the shore so the wave wouldn't get us wet....but we didn't do a very good job cuz we got soaked. My pants were wet up to my thighs! But it was fun...And Blake LOVED playing in the sand, he was so happy and giggly it was cute. Afterwards we went to Panera Bread (its a little sandwhich and soup shop) and ate lunch, it was way good. Then we just went back to Brittanie's apartment and talked for a few hours til our husbands got home! It was a fun day, it was nice getting out of the stinky hotel room I'd been in for a few days. We get to move into our apartment today and I'M SO EXCITED to be able to have an apartment and cook meals again! And I also start my job today and I'm also excited about that! So yay!
cute little Blake
i know i know, i'm lame...

A few nights before we left all of our friends came over to watch The Office and have one last night of Kava before we left for the summer. I love our friends, they are all so much fun to be with and we'll miss them while we're here.....well actually, a few of them are here in Va Beach selling too, but the ones who AREN'T here, we'll miss! :) Our friends Dallan & Cami just got a puppy and they brought her over, she's so cute! I want to get one when we get home, which is weird cuz I really don't like dogs! So we'll see how I feel about one in a few months!
Meredith, Jason, Dallan, Cami
Keighley, Mike Sam. That sick dirty water looking stuff in that big bowl in front of Sam is Kava. Gross huh? And those little bowls next to him on the floor are what they drink out of, they pass them around to everyone in the circle. I don't understand why him and his friends like it so much! It makes me gag.
Bebe(thats her name) sleeping on Jason's shoe...sooo cute
Another one of Sam cause he's so good lookin'
Being here in Virginia Beach and not seeing the little kids I nannied in AZ now for a week has made me REALLY miss them! I was so used to seeing them everyday so its so weird not being there with them! I miss them..! Here are some pics cuz they are just so dang cute! :)
Miles, Annie, Charlotte & Maisy.
Owen was at school so he's not in the picture..but he's cute too.

happy mothers day!
Me & Sam started our journey to VA Beach yesterday morning and made it as far as Oklahoma City last night...we went thru Arizona, New Mexico, Texas and we got to our hotel at about 2:30 am! It was a loooong time in the truck but we had a good time! we listened to 2 books on tape (sam was way into them :] ) played some dorky games like 20 questions and such and listened to some good tunes! We also saw where they make Bar S brand stuff and Xerox and Kodak! Cool right? :) When we got into Oklahoma we saw a dead armadillo about every mile. Sick. And Sam almost hit one or two of them!
Anyway, right now we are at Denny's eating with a bunch of oklahoma city-ans........interesting people they are :) But Sam just finished his sandwhich so I guess its time to go! We are gonna go as far as Knoxville Tennessee tonight and then go the rest of the 8 hrs tomorrow!
Happy Mothers Day to my sweet little mom who i love soooooooooooo much! ...and to all you other mom's out there :)

24 hours + 5 Kids under 5 = tiredness
I'm tired.
I have been at work since 2 pm yesterday and will be here til 2 pm today. Its the parents anniversary and so they went on a little get-a-way and asked me to watch all the kids! Which I was completely fine with 1. because the kids are good and not TOO hard to take care of. It gets difficult when Charlotte (3 months) and Maisy (almost 2) are crying at the same time and neither one of them can tell you whats up. and 2. I was willing to come because me and Sam need all the money we can get for our big trip to VA this weekend!
Last night we all cleaned up the house and ordered pizza, played some games, got everyone in their pj's, started a movie and I made some popcorn. So then we all ate some popcorn and by 8:30 everyone was in bed asleep! ...But me! I couldn't sleep that early and I was kinda nervous being in this big ol' house by myself with little kids! So I finally fell asleep around 12:30 and woke up every few hours to feed Charlotte. Maisy woke up around 6 soo happy and giggly so me and Maisy hung out til 7 when everyone else woke up! I made some pancakes for breakfast and Owen (5) had to go to school so I made him a lunch and helped him get dressed then his grandma came to take him to school!
So then I got Annie (4) Miles (2 1/2) Maisy and Charlotte all dressed and did the dishes and started some laundry.
I'M POOPED!
Its hard work taking care of 5 kids, and it makes me change my mind a bit about wanting a baby next year :) Now I'm going to load up everyone in the van and take Annie to gymnastics! I can't wait for 2 o'clock to get here...
Oh. You're welcome for my life story.

D-Backs Game!!
Yesterday me, sam and our friends jay and christina went to the diamondbacks baseball game! It was SOO fun! We got the tickets from my boss Gary for free and we were on the 4th row to the right of home plate. Killer good seats!
The Dbacks were down the first half of the game but came back and won and it was a really exciting game! We were all pumped at the beginning cause we thought we got free food and drinks....but we really didn't and we spent like 30 bucks on 2 hot dogs, 2 drinks and some popcorn. haha, but it was all really good AND we got dang good seats for free, so it was okay!
Between innings some retard from the stands jumped the rail and starting running across the field! A security guard took off after him and the dork kid didn't get very far before the security man tackled the crap out of him! He was soo rough! He was flipping him around everywhere and pulling his head back with his hair... it was soo awesome! It was really entertaining to watch...the kid was probably so drunk. or just really really stupid. either way, it was funny.
Here are a few pictures from the game...it was so so fun!

This guy was in the Mitchell Report cause he used steroids, & Sam would yell out "mitchell report" when he was in front of us warming up..it was pretty funny
A bird.
Randy Johnson.He's really tall, old & ugly...(no offense randy) and Sam and Jay were so excited to see him pitch!
Eric Byrnes... I cheered loud for him cause I was wearing his shirt :)
ya can't really see him, but the dude in the black shirt and long ugly hair(next to the guy in the yellow hat) is from the band Rush. I don't know who they are, but people thought he was hot stuff so i took a picture :)
This lady was right in front of Sam and she was WEIRD and had a fanny pack on...double weird
view of home plate from our seats..are you even kidding me?! we were so close!
our friends, jay and christina
