Hello All
Welcome to my Pre-Trip Report, you will laugh, you will cry and you will have a good time reading along with all my parenting humor. I will warn all of you, I am very sarcastic. VERY! But if you like a good read then you are defiantly in the right place. Let's start at the beginning....
My name is Crystal. I am 33 years old. I love all things Disney and Moscato. I recently left my job as an investigator with child protective services, after needing a change. I am from Chicago Illinois, but currently reside in Texas. I am a Girl Scout leader, and a Service Unit Director.
I am married to a wonderful, hard working man, Jason, who leaves his socks everywhere in the house, can never find anything he is looking for, and who vacuums at 2am. However, I could never imagine life without him. Jason works as an Investigator with Child Protective Services. He can cook, clean, and folds laundry!!!!!!! He is an amazing husband and father, and really is the only person I have come into contact with that can handle my bossiness with such love. He also does not get mad at me when I spend a ton of money on Lularoe, which is a great thing.
Jason and I have been together since 2003. I was 19, he was 27. He made fun of me, I told him off, and yeah that is how that story goes. We got married in 2008. I was dead set against marriage, and was very content with what we had. But then I changed my mind. So one day when Jason and Dev were shopping in Burlington Coat factory, I went into David's bridal and tried on a dress. We were expecting our second child, poops, and I decided I wanted to get married. So I text Jason and asked him to come down to David's Bridal. He walked in to find my crazy self in a white wedding gown, he looked a little confused and I said "I have decided I want to get married. Let's not make a big deal of this, the date will be May 11." and that was that. We got married 4 months later. This may we will celebrate our 9th wedding anniversary.
We have a total of 8 children. Yes you read that correctly, 8 children. We have an even split of boys to girls. The oldest Tati is 22, Trent is 20, Greg is 20, Jason is 19, Devyn is 11, Peyton (poops) is 8, Isabella (bella) is 5 and then there is Sophia (sophie) 4. Our children mean the world to us. The older ones drive us crazy, and the younger 4 who still reside in our home...(the last leaving in 14 years 8 months and 3 days, but hey who is counting) make our lives full of love, craziness, and laughter. Needless to say our lives are hectic 24/7 and the adventures we encounter make for lasting memories and a large Advil Bill. Sorry I do not have any photos of them all together. It is way to stressful trying to achieve that, and about 2 years ago, I stopped trying
Here are the 4 that still live at home.
So that is a little bit about us, feel free to introduce yourselves and get ready for some awesome stories.
