Christmas

Don't get me wrong I love Christmas.... I HATE wrapping all the presents. Why do I do this to my self every year? I love gift cards, no wrapping. Oh yea I love gift bags, who ever invented gift bags I owe you big time. So as I am writing this I would like to admit I have not wrapped one present, as they sit downstairs I am hoping for the little elf's to step up and wrap them for me. To all of you that have started wrapping good for you for those of you that haven't I'm with you. Good Luck!!!

Thanksgiving 2010

So my mom had this great idea to get all of us together and get a "family" picture minus Zach and his family. So after many attempts outside and inside this might be one of the better ones, if only Rikki didn't have squinty eyes.

Jazmyn loves to pull faces

Kylee kept running in the snow it was the funniest thing ever

Cute pick of the grand kids if the sun wasn't in their faces.

After 4 years of not being home for Thanksgiving we did it this year. We did it all, ate the turkey, went black Friday shopping and Chris and Rylee even went snowboarding. That is a lot to do for one weekend. I did tell Rylee we have to do a soccer tournament next year because I don't think I can do it again.

Almost 10 Years

On November 11th I will have been married to the most wonderful man for 10 years. Boy does time fly. I can't imagine my life with out him, yes he is a pain in my butt, but I love him. With out him I wouldn't have Rylee the sunshine in my day. So to you Chris I love you more today then I did those long 10 years ago. Let make another 10 years go by just a good. I Love You

Jack

The many names of Jack

So we have a family dog named Jack.... well sometimes he is called Jack. Jack has a mind of his own. He lives in his kennel and believe me that is his house, you do not go near it. He may look cute and sweet but remember looks can be deceiving. So one of Jacks names is Buba its when he is cute and you just want to hold him and give him loves.
Then there is the evil side of Jack as Kin likes to call him "Satan's Spawn" this is when she like to tease him and make him growl at her.

Then the is the names yes names Rylee likes to call him. First and favorite of Rylees is pain in the butt. Plus with Rylee Jacks name never comes out the same. The sweet, come here Jackie, to the JACK leave me alone.

But still with a cute face like his how cant you love him.

Saying Hello

Well today, so far is a great day. Its 10:00 and I have made some phone calls, made a facebook page for Rylee's Student Council and going to help them with a blog. I might need to take a nap now. Rylee has a game, Chris has school and I am now the driver of one busy daughter. Now all I have to do is wait for the driving to begin. Have a great and happy day.

Unemployed

So I think I'm unemployed the first time in 20 years and I really don't know what to do with myself. Well for the first 4 weeks I think I was in Pity Party mode. This week I've decided to have a change of heart and go with it. Its kinda hard to imagine not working every day, I talk to myself now and even answer myself. I think that is a bad sign. So today is the day that I throw PITY PARTIES out the door. I got up and took Rylee to school and I exercised for 30mins, Yep exercised. Well off to see what the day will bring.
