Yet Another Birthday
Another birthday has descended upon our home.  My one and only girl turns 10 on Friday.  She wants to be so grown up.  She asked for things like makeup and a purse.  Instead of a party she wanted to go to the spa with her best friend and have manicures and pedicures. ...

Easter Vacation

Update
We had a great vacation in Mt. Bachelor last month.  We went skiing/snowboarding twice.  My 4 year old finally learned how to turn and stop on his skis and he graduated to riding the chair lift with his instructor. ...

Back to Blogging
Well, I am resolved to get back into blogging.  My blog page has fallen off the map lately because there's always something else to do.  I also fight the feeling that I can only blog if I have something brilliant to say.  But after hearing my family complain about my lack of posts...

Snowboarding and Falling
Snowboarding last week didn’t go as well as planned for me. The snow was awesome. The ski park had gotten more than 5 feet of snow since the last time we went. It was a beautiful sunny day. We took my mom with us which made the trip more fun. She doesn’t ski or snowboard, she...

New Year
Happy New Year all! 2008 has started out great for us. We hit the slopes on January 2nd. My husband and my 9-year-old Shelby were on skis and my 17-year-old Josh and I were on snowboards. Well, he was on a snowboard; I was on my rear end most of the day. That was if it was a lucky fall....

Haven't shopped for Christmas yet!
I want to know why I always write awesome blogs in my head when I am nowhere near a computer. When I get to a computer my mind is blank. What’s up with that?

The crazy season is in full gear at our house. We have had birthdays for two of my children this month. My...

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was a nice time for family.  I worked the night before Thanksgiving and the night of Thanksgiving which means that I pretty much slept through Thanksgiving Day.  So, we celebrated our Thanksgiving on Saturday.  We had so much food.  I guess we lived up to the...
