Spring Bonfire 2016

Head on over to our You Tube Channel The Eichhorst Family and watch our video on Spring Bonfire! :)

Bonfire Ready...

I know your probably thinking it is no where near bonfire time. Well in my neck of the woods it is, we are in spring time but we still have some pretty chilly nights.  Some friends came up from Mississippi. We had a big brush pile from gathering limbs from storm torn trees as well as trees the guys just cut down. We just enjoyed the night. Had a beer, listen music until Kens truck died. Thankfully my car was able to jump it off.

Although the that sounds like a ton of fun this morning didn't start out that way. Ryleigh woke me up at 8:30 and said she was sick to her stomach and was having sour burps. Yep, sure enough those sour burps turned into hugging a trash can.  She began to feel better and as the night progressed and time went on, phenergan wore off, she started feeling nauseated again. I am hoping that before it's over with she can just get a goodnight sleep. 

That's all for now. Come back in a few days and check out how Easter went. :) 

Do They Believe

If you have watched my "Easter Basket 2016" VLOG then you heard me say.....(if you have a child who still believes in the Easter Bunny that can read, either come back later or just move a way you don't have wandering eyes over your shoulder!).....waiting.....

Ah ok by now you have gotten situated. But you heard me say my daughter no longer believes.  I knew this day was coming, I knew she would be at the age where she questions things, and she picks up on things. This momma doesn't raise any dummy's.  She finally confessed that she knew the tooth fairy and the Easter bunny...as well as the elves were fake. That it was mommy and daddy. 

You may have noticed there is one big oh jolly dude I didn't mentioned that's because she still believes in Santa clause.  I will not take that from her. Like I have explained to her if in your heart you still believe he is real then he is real. 

The Easter Bunny, Toothfairy, The elves, and Santa Claus was all I had left of my little girl still being little and not a growing up, preteen full of attitude big girl. 

Now I am sure your asking yourself what about Brayden does he believe. YES, he does still believe and we have made an agreement with Ryleigh that if she ruined it for her brother that mommy will ruin it for her. (I know such a mean mommy) 

But leave me some comments below about your children do they still believe or has the topic come up yet? How did you handle it?

Easter Baskets 2016

I had a hunch to go ahead and get the Easter baskets ready. So I did, mainly because if you live in a small farm area. I sure you have heard of field mice. Well we get them during the spring time because well we live in between two fields.  However, I have gotten them together and put away from the children as well as the field mice. UGH hate them little things!

Just going to leave a picture of the baskets and a link to our you tube channel with the video on what's in them.

Easter Traditions

It's hard to believe we are almost to Easter time this year. Do you have traditions with your family that you do every year? Traditions you'd like to start doing?

Our family is probably like a lot of families. We usually go to church with my mom on Easter Sunday, that is after waking up and seeing what the Easter bunny left them.  Don't worry, I have always taught my children the true meaning of Easter. But it's also fun to see them believe in the Easter Bunny. I mean my oldest finally told me about three weeks ago that she knows the Easter Bunny, The Elves, and Toothfairy aren't real. But she believes in Santa. I am glad she does. Because my oldest is 10 years old and well that's something as a child she is holding onto. I have come to terms with the fact that my kids will not always be little. But until they come to me and tell me they no longer believe such as my daughter then they will still get to participate in the easter bunny! Don't worry though her brother doesn't know the truth yet therefor, we agreed with her as long as she keeps her big mouth shut lol then we would let her get something from the "Easter Bunny" as well. We also participate in a lot of Easter Egg hunts. Well let me rephrase that not a lot because we've only been to a few and a few of them we have hosted! :)

Are you ready to start traditions with your children? Or have you already!

Leave in the comments below what you do with your family!

What I Didn't Want....

We have tried to conceive a baby for almost three years. Something isn't working right and I feel that it's me. I had a lot of complications after my son was born due to Mirena Birthday Control.  I had the birth control in for exactly 8 weeks. The doctor removed it due to I was having a horrible hormonal imbalance! I was just completely not myself. My doctor at the time didn't bother to tell me one of the side effects to this medicine was infertility.  Well Ken wants a baby of his own so badly and I feel as a girlfriend I fail him because I haven't given him what he wants. He says he doesn't care because he has two kids such as my kids that he feel are his kids. But It bothers me to want something so badly and can't have it. It's sad that my children have two dead beats as father and supported by their daddy ken who just wants a baby of his own. I could have kids with deadbeats why can't I have one with Ken.

I guess by reading this from the last blog you know that Aunt Flo decided to visit!

That's really all I have to say on this post because well it is saddening to know my body isn't doing what it was made to do! :(
