Up

So I guess I needed to be up early this morning for some reason. So here I am, writing in my blog. Not much going on in my life, just trying to figure things out. What to do today, and planning for 2009. There is so much I want to get accomplished that I've got to sit down and write out what and how. That might have to wait until later though because I have got to get laundry caught up, and the house cleaned up before the weekend.  

But right now it's off to fix my hair and get Jordan up and ready for school. Perhaps we'll actually be ready for the bus this morning.

So Much...

There is so much to get done I don't know how I'm going to do it.  Luckily I was able to get up this morning and get Jordan on the bus (missed it yesterday).  I got my tree up but no decorations.  I almost had a nervous breakdown because I was suprised by 3 spiders living on my tree.  Guess it's time for a tree bag so that won't happen next year.  

I'm probably going to head to the store this morning after a shower so I can finish picking up stuff to make goodies.  Not too much left to get, but I'd like to get them done early in Dec and get plates to family and friends.  I'm going to try to make something new this year, but I need to pick up a small cookie cutter.  Hopefully Wal-Mart will have one.  

Well, I'm off to the shower.  Just a quick picture though of us at Thanksgiving.  Will probably use it for our Christmas cards.  We'll see if I end up liking them in the end.

Black Friday

Ok, so I admit....I went out on Black Friday.  Although I really hate to go out when there is a big crowd, there were a couple of things I needed so Loney, Jordan, Melody, Mom, Heather, Ian and I all headed out.  I found the cutest dress for Melody for her to wear the Sunday before Christmas.  I can't wait for her to wear it.

We had a great Thanksgiving.  Mom got a jump house for the kids to play in so the adults could relax a little bit inside.  They had a blast.  Jordan was out there with all the kids laughing and jumping with the best of them.  Melody seemed to be in the spot light for a lot of my family.  She is so adorable, but will probably get second reign when my niece has her baby next week.  I really don't mind because it just goes with the territory.

We took our family Christmas photo though I haven't uploaded any pictures yet so will post as soon as I do.  Loney is still trying to recover from his back getting hurt.  I pray he recovers soon, because I know he wants to get out there and put up the lights on the house.  (Right Loney!?!)

The person I really missed being at Thanksgiving was Joni.  I know she had her own family, but it's just not the same without her.  Perhaps next time.

Well, gotta get to bed.  It's been a busy day with shopping and Mom and I beating Heather and Loney to a few round of hand & foot.  Blessing to everyone.

So much to do.....

I hate these days when you have so much you need to get finished, but you have no energy to do it.  Of course that has been like that for me for a while.  I'm bad, I know.  Anyway, I'm trying to get laundry done before we're off to my parents house for Thanksgiving.  There's going to be 31 or so people there.  I like seeing all of my family, and I know my kids enjoy visiting grandma and grandpa.  It'll be nice to see my sister Heather from Washington as well.  I miss her so much.

Anyway, I hope everyone has a very Happy Thanksgiving, and don't spend too much on Black Friday.

The Dark Side

I guess it's now time for me to join the dark side and create my own blog.  This is something I've semi avoided because it's just quite a bit for me to keep up with.  But with family and friends not living in the same town, it's a great opportunity to keep them up to date with me and my family.  So I hope you all enjoy.
