Can a mommy out there please tell me how to get three kids up and ready and out the door before noon?

She loves to make funny faces!
The duder man.
Kisses and more kisses.
Yeah!!
I decided I am having camera withdrawals. My slr is in the shop. And this Mac photo booth is no longer cutting it. Hopefully today is the last day I even try to capture a memory using the thing.
Here are a few from the Mac photo booth (the built in camera in my Mac)

Jack man
So we made it. Jack and I are here in good ole Washington. So VERY excited to be away but already missing hubby and the kiddos. I would probably die if I didn't have this little man with me. Weird how I go nuts around my fam and nuts when I am away. Here is the little dude right now, he is passed out on the bed beside me and he's oh so sweet. G~ma Kathy and I have so far been to The Lavender Gardens (really neat), grabbed lunch in a cute little town and played lots of funny face making on the Mac Photo Booth. Oh photo booth CRACKS ME UP : )
Me
G~ma Kathy
and the two of us.
Jack and I are here. Waiting at the airport, already missing you all. Just wanted to send you a quick love note.
Daddy~ I LOVE YOU more than anything! I love you I love you I love you! Hope you have a good week, no stress at work and LOTS of fun with the kiddos. Brush kiddos teeth, say many prayers and I will see you soon. If you miss me so very much just listen to this song :)
Riley~ My little super hero, keep fighting bad guys while I am gone. Be a good brother and take care of your sissy. Help daddy do laundry so you have lots of clean undies and tights. Know that I LOVE YOU all the way up to Pluto!
Norah~ You get me teary eyed. Just writing these cheesy, silly words. You are my favorite gilly billy, baby girl eva! I am so happy to have you as my girl. Give daddy lots and lots of kisses for me and I will be home super soon.
Jack and I LOVE YOU sooo much!!
Have a fun week :)
xoxo~ Mom and Jack

We REALLY REALLY want to win : ) What a fun happy birthday that would be for my little sun baby Norah. Wish us luck!

Hhhhmm, how do I say this so you don't up and throw me in the nut
house :) I'm hearing voices. Yep you heard it right. So yesterday was
our annual Yard Sale to raise money for the American Cancer Society.
I'm sitting there when the crowds were low and these voices started
chatting it up. One says "why are people so cruel, the other says, just
help and serve more and you can decrease it". Next one, "why do we not
feel fullness of joy each day in our lives" the other "because we fill
it so full of clutter, stuff, plans, activities, thoughts, errands,
wants, selfishness and just plain crap. WE block out the joy". Next
up "why do we judge others"? "Because we are very close minded and
think people should look, think, act and feel the same way we do".
These voices were talking it out on and off in my head for about 12
hours. Finally I said shhhh to my thoughts because I had a head ache,
probably not from the voices so much as from the yard sale but I still
turned it off. Seriously though why, why and why I ask? Think about these
things and tell me why for you? Why do you think people are so cruel,
why less joy in your days? Why judge? Just curious to hear your take on
it all and tell me please you hear these voices too?
xoxo Brandy
P.S I actually think we will
hold another yard sale next Saturday if your interested in donating
your junk or DI piles. I'll even save you the trip and pick it up for
you. Yard Sale July25th West Jordan UTAH

Someones birthday is coming up and "huh hmm" to my dearest hubby, here is your chance to choose the right :)
These books below are ones (in my opinion) that every crafty moma needs. They can be found here & here and are created by the super creative and lovely Soule Mama
hmmmm also really like a necklace or something similar
but with my families names of course Bryce+Brandy=Riley~Norah~Jack (these are all over Etsy)
Or maybe a new one of these bags for carrying the crews diapers, wipes, clothes, snacks, toys, sipees, and so much more. My only request here. Pretty patterns and BIG.
I feel something stirring in me, like my soul is exploding. I feel change coming. I feel like I am wandering away from the same comfortable Brandy that I have always been. I am slowly moving forward to a better place but I am not sure what to call this place yet. Buts it's better I just know it! I am leaving many current thoughts and ideas behind, and allowing space for new ones, better ones. I am on a journey to find something more. I know what I feel in my heart exists, I just know it and I feel it stirring. I feel like there is so much more for this life of mine to offer, to me and to those around me. I am on a new road, to change, to grow and become a better more authentic me. I feel I have stepped on a new path, but I just can't tell exactly where I am going yet. Feel free to join me for the journey.
