I Think I Can...

I'm feeling a little like, "The Little Engine that Could," this morning.

A little loop is sounding in my head, "I think I can, I think I can, I think I can."



What I'm saying is I'm feeling a little unprepared to jump back into the real world.

Vacations are nice!

Vacations are needed!

However, getting back into the swing of things kind of bites!

Three days into the New Year and all my hard work to be more optimistic is swirling down the drain.

Guess what I am trying to say is, if you are having a hard time getting back into the swing of things today, you're not alone.

Happy Vacation is Over Monday!

PS (Quit Reading write now if you don't want to see the ugly truth)



I warned you!

Okay, you know I'm super Pollyanna, right? I was thrilled this morning because with the end of vacation comes the start of school. School means great things to learn for my kids and fun experiences they'll tell me about when they get home. School means routine, structure and schedule (the boys and I do best when we work within a schedule). School means seeing friends, and enjoying the attentions of their teacher. School means Christopher and I get to have quiet time together. School means a definite dinner time where we are all together. School means a quiet house in the evening, clean children in bed ontime, and a couple hours of alone time with Mr. Moore.

I was so stinking excited for vacation to end today!

That said... I have missed the noise and the fighting, because the cacaphony meant that the kids were home. I suppose I must go snuggle a baby and make up for the lack of fights.

<3 you!!

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...
