Messing with Me

Today is December 17th?

How in the world is it DECEMBER 17th?!

Someone must be messing with my calendars because there is no way it is December 17th.

What? No one is messing with me?

It is actually December 17th! Well then that means I'm running behind. WAY behind. Look at my to do list.

Hey, wait a minute all of that stuff is done. Today was the last day of school/work. I'm done! birthday treats check, school gifts check, and all of the above check. Believe me I have the hour and half of video to prove it.

Want to watch?

So with all that stuff done that means I get to kick back and relax.

Except! There is only 8 days left until Christmas. Two days until number one's 14th Birthday (Holy COW!) 3 days until number two's 12th Birthday (Freak!) and 11 days until number four's 8th Birthday (Sob!) and 14 days until number four's baptism (sob, sob, sob).

So really the things on the to do list left to do is longer than what has been done. MAN!!! Are you sure it is the 17th?

Fine! I believe you.

I guess I should give you warning that this coming week I have decided to break the rules and post all about my wonderful life. Okay, not so much my wonderful life but the wonderful kids I have been so blessed to raise. So if your not into the whole gushing, my kids are the best in the whole wide world, thing you might not want to read my blog.

However, I don't brag to much or at least I try not to and this coming week as part of our birthday celebrating I have decided to brag, brag, brag. Because no matter how stressed that I am that it is already December 17th!! they make all the stress totally worth it.

Happy Holidays

I brag and I complain because I blog for me. I don't care who else reads it.

Our Christmas Letter

Each year I send out a Christmas letter and the one thing that frustrates me more then anything about the letter is that I can not include all the pictures I would like. That and Brent's rule that the letter has to fit on one side of one paper. I have gotten pretty clever with font size and margins to keep this rule. All you that have read this blog know that I am a sucker for pictures. So this year along with mailing out the letters I am going to post the letter with pictures. YAY ! So fun having your own blog to torture people anyway you want. Our Christmas cards were sent out on Monday so here in all it's digital glory is the letter again, this time with pictures. (Beginning of Letter) Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! We hope that this letter finds you happy, healthy and enjoying the holiday season. If you are like us, it has been a little bit of a difficult year dealing with increasing prices and a budget that isn't quite stretching to meet every thing you want it to...

HI!

Back to the real world. After a week of spring break we are back to the real world.  Sometimes the real world is a little lame.  On the other hand having the kids home 24, 7.... Well, let's just say the real world aint that  bad. We had a fairly productive spring break. We were able to get a bunch of have to's taken care of. Al, Brent, and I made it into the eye doctor and will soon be sporting some new eyes. Glasses just keep getting cooler. My glasses are red with bling on the side and Al's are a very cool turquoise blue. Brent's glasses are a little boring, but being as this is his very first pair ever, we are breaking him into the eye glass world slowly. Brent and I also painted our room. Pictures coming as soon as I decide if I like the paint color. I broke away from our norm and painted the room gray. It is so different that I haven't decided if it is awesome or not. Definitely need to get some artwork on the wall.  This post is a little lame but mainly I just...

A Walk Through Our Fall Garden

We have had an absolutely beautiful fall. The weather has actually stayed unseasonably warm. While we have been busy canning and harvesting we have taken very little time to enjoy the flowers that are also enjoying the fall season.  So a couple of days ago I grabbed my camera and enjoyed a scroll through my flowers.  I Love this picture I swear it makes me think I can actually smell the rose.  Sadly this is a no name rose. I think we should name it don't you?   These little guys are from a start my friend gave me.  In fact my flower beds are a bloom right now with plants from her garden. These little gals make me think of quiet summer days.  They also make me want to finish reading "Anne of Green Gables," again.  Don't you think that Anne would love these little ones.  She would probably call them "Queen's of Fall," or something else romantic and fancy. These are mums and you should see the plant it is huge.  Again a start from a friend.  I think it is...
