1st Post

So, this is my first post on this new blog. My old blog, www.scrappinmylife.com was deleted by accident and apparently there is no way to get it back so I am starting fresh! Starting fresh with a new blog also brings a new blog name! I like it.. snaps (because I like photography) and scraps (because I like scrapbooking)..and together, that makes Snaps & Scraps!

So far this year there are lots of things going on; I never really updated on my old blog, but I will start off with the end of last year.

*December 2012- I got custody of my 12 year old, so now I officially have ALL 6 of my kids with me.
*February 4- 2013- We bought a new SUV, 2008 Mercury Mariner Premier
*March 2013- we started looking to purchase our first home


Now with all that happening, there is more. Like Jessa's IEP meetings,  doctors appointments for Jessa's ears and for other things, other meetings, and home schooling (Leandra and Ilanna), life has been so very busy.

Hubby was nominated and accepted  for an award from  Martial Arts History Museum. So he and I get to go out to California in September for the awards ceremony. We are  not 100 percent sure, but I do think we will be trying to stay out there for 4 or 5 days.

April 14th we were invited to go to an Asian film festival down toward Orlando so we will be going to that too.

There have been some downs too but honestly, all the goods outweigh the bad so I cant even remember anything bad at the moment lol

But that is all for now, I will take more time later to blog. Have a great week everyone!
