Way past due... I promise to update

So, I have not blogged in almost 5 months. It has been very busy with the kids and household. I promise to update SOON! Chrissy

Christmas Slide Show

So my camera died this Christmas and these were the last pictures that I was able to take with it. The pictures were a bit blurry because the kids were so excited openning presents that I could barely get any pictures snapped. We had a great Christmas considering. Hope you and yours had a Christmas as blessed as ours!

Holiday Break

I know it has been a while, but with Christmas coming and the craziness this season brings, I just have not been able to muster up the mental strength to write anything. I have felt a bit overwelmed with the magnatude of not having a "job" anymore. I thought it would affect me a bit differently. I thought I would be more proactive with more "time on my hands". But that has not been the case. I have found myself wanting to hibernate under the covers. I had all of these grand ideas of how I was going to be a better Mom since I did not have to work all the time. Instead I found myself focusing on what needed to be done. Cleaning, laundry, diaper changes, vacuming, Christmas cards, baking... And now here it is a couple days before Christmas and I have not even taken the time to read the account of Jesus birth in the gospel of Luke like I had "planned" to do.

So I am not going to be too hard on myself. This is not the last Christmas. It does not have to be perfect. I read another blog today that put it all into perspective for me. It really helped lift my spirits and prepared my heart to celebrate Christmas.
Here is the post: "Grace in a Manger"



Merry Christmas

Sarah's Birthday Party

Sarah's Birthday Party

So I know it has been a while since I posted. I guess I have been enjoying me time off since I am no longer working. I am now a FULL TIME stay at home Mom. I posted a slide show from Sarah's 4th Birthday Party Celebration. In case you were wondering, the beautiful dress Sarah is wearing was knitted for her by Nana. She looked adorable in it. The kids had a blast. Sarah's favorite thing was the tubes and slides. Joey just loved being chased all over the place. It was an afternoon enjoyed by all.
