Christmas at our house...

It isn't Christmas, without the completion of a Transformer puzzle.

Christmas Jammies.

Nick's 12 String Acoustic Guitar with hard case...yes, I am awesome!

Yes, I was so excited to get a new purse...and yes, I played to the camera.

Nick got an old school hip hop cd compilation... he played it for us. (UP) Kaden danced (DOWN). Kaden did not want me to video him. so I snuck around a corner to tape him...and then he soon realized. Sorry the tape is sideways...now I know not to do that (since I can't rotate it).

Merry Christmas!

Winter Wonderland!

It snowed again last night! Somewhere around 6 inches or so...they say. The family enjoyed the snow...played, shoveled, and even swung. Good times! The hill that they are sliding down is in the middle of our cul-de-sac. The kids had so much fun. In fact, Austin is still out there now!

Thanksgiving 2008

So this was the 5th time my family met together for our annual Disney Cruise. It was a lot of fun. We had 40 family members all together...tons of fun, tons of sun, tons of food, tons of laughs, and tons of games. Good time as usual. Here are a few pictures to enjoy...

i am back...

...for today at least.
I have had a blog "hiccup" of sorts...I don't know if life is too busy, if I am too tired, or if I am just too boring...but blogging has seemed hard lately. So here I am, I am now here blogging. Yeah me. Pathetic, I know. At this moment, I can only think of Erin...I just don't know if i can be the true blogger that she is. But that's just me. I guess that I will do what I can...Right now, I am just doing baby steps back into it.
