About Us

Chris and I have been married 17 years and have three great boys. Seth is 14 and Kyle and Caleb are almost nine, and even though they are identical twins they are as different as night and day. Our family also includes cats, a chicken and a snake. It does get a little crazy here sometimes but isn't that what keeps life fun?!?

One very horrible experience

I just have to share something truly disgusting that happened to me tonight. I had been outside trying (in vain) to get the Bermuda grass out of the flower bed and was all sweaty and muddy so I decided to take a shower before bed. As I turned around to wash my hair I spot a roach. Not just any roach but a very, very huge sewer roach. Now for those who haven't seen my shower it is a small corner shower with a glass door. When I spotted that roach I started screaming and for the life of me couldn't get the shower door open. I finally flung the door opened and, still screaming for my husband who was outside, run into my room. Unfortunately the curtains over the sliding glass door had not been pulled closed and all of the outside lights were on. Fortunately no one but Seth was on the patio. As I pulled the door opened I am yelling for Chris to come and of course no one is moving as fast as I think they should. All of the boys have now piled in my bathroom to see this roach but meanwhile I am still standing, dripping wet, in front of the sliding door. Finally Chris got the roach in a kleenex and was headed out with it. Caleb wanted to take it outside and let it go but I told him it was time for the roach to go to roach heaven. Needless to say, the rest of my shower was not very relaxing and I got shampoo in my eyes because I was on the lookout for more of those disgusting creatures.
