Welcome!

Many of my friends have family blogs and I love checking them out, so I thought what better way to share some of the happenings in our busy crazy lives with those we love! I'm not much of a writer, so I will try to convince my genious witty hubby to write some (and yes, flattery works with him!) :) I hope you enjoy postings and photos to come!

A brief history of the Matthews Family ~ It all began when Bo and I met at a wedding almost 6 years ago. I was there on a date with a friend of the groom & it was my first introduction to Bo and his loveable and interesting (yes... we'll go with interesting. this is a family show :)) friends. I quickly ditched the other guy and Bo proceeded to make his move ~ of course, it was all in the name of "friendship". He was charming, sweet and so cute! Little did I know, he was a player from way back ~ BUT, it was love and those "interesting" people are now my best friends and family and I wouldn't trade them for anything! We have been married almost 4 years and have a wonderful family. Ashton, our daughter, is 13 and is textbook 13 year old girl full of attitude, wit & fun. She loves her music, friends, and of course, boys! She is so smart and funny! Naturally, she does not think we could have EVER been teenagers since we are, in her opinion, THE DORKIEST PARENTS EVER! (has she met me?? I'm pretty dang cool - she'll figure out..... it may be another 6-8 years, but she'll get it!) Cade, is the typical middle child. He is 9 years old and is such a cool kid! He loves skateboarding, reading and is currently protesting any sort of haircut. Luckily, it looks really cute on him, so we'll let him slide for now. He is about to start guitar lessons and I'm pretty sure he'll be the rockstar before we know it! And then there's the baby ~ Jack. He is 3 years old and full of cantakerous wit (although unintentional, hilarious none the less!) He loves playing his video game (Star Wars Lego on PS2) and playing outside. He is such a cutie!! We have nicknamed him "his highness" because he is very demanding. Pretty sure we're turning him into a little devil, but he's the last baby, so hopefully it will all even out.

We have a wonderfully hectic & crazy life full of laughter (yes, sometimes that I'm losing my mind psychotic laughter, but that still counts!) and love - I hope you enjoy us sharing it with you!
