Real life

I was watching a show last night, and during the show, someone said something to the point of, "no one really blogs or posts on Facebook life as it really is."  Meaning, that people post the happy times, the funny things, and they leave out the troubles, mundane, more worrisome things. 

I got to thinking about it, and you know, it is true.  Sure every once in a while there are complaints, whining status's, but on a whole, most people keep the majority of that stuff to themselves. 

In some ways it is good.  No one wants to whine, or read complaints all the time, but then again, there are times that you (or maybe just I) think "am I the only one dealing with...?"

That being said, I'm not going to bore you with the many details of my (our) life, believe me there are lots of things that I could go on about for hours and hours.  We have lots of struggles, issues, mind boggling stressors and things that I didn't think we would ever need to worry or deal with but we are anyway, because that is life. 

But, like I said, "that being said," we have lots of good times.  Lots of laughter, love and we enjoy the time that we have together.

Just to let you all know, we are real, we have real problems, we have real issues but we are making it through them and loving each other as we live our life.

Now for some Real Life cute kids!

Here they are at the pumpkin patch last weekend, with Aaron's family.  They sat on a cow, petted ducks, did a corn maze, rode ponies, picked pumpkins and just had a fun time.

Can't believe our baby is almost 2!
