It's been way too long according to my son.......

Good-morning!
My beloved son made me read some old posts yesterday. They made me cry, they made me smile, and they reminded me of why I started this blog to begin with.
So here goes an attempt at keeping up with this on a regular basis!

Life is CRAZY, I'll get to that in the
next post.

Here's to you Chris for reminding me of some great memories. I love you!

Ummm

Well, it has been awhile. Sorry about that, but we were having issues with the computer and I couldn't get online to blog.

It's been a crazy few weeks. Dave won a trip to Disney for work. It is a special SCORE award that they give out every year. He will be headed down in May for a 4 day conference, and we(the kids and I) are going to visit my Mom while he is at the conference. We will meet up when it is over and spend the remainder of the week at Disney. It should be a fun filled and VERY busy 4 days!

Dave was in a head on car crash a few eeks ago too. His car was officially totalled. We had the option of buying it back from the insurance company tho, so we still have it! Dave hurt his back, but is doing great now.

We have had snow day after snow day here. The kids are now going to school until June 24th! Let's pray for NO MORE SNOW! I am anxious for spring.

I really don't have much to write about today, just not feeling it I guess. So, that being said, I'll log off until another day.

Where does the time go?

It's been awhile huh? I have been so crazy busy, I guess that's a good thing as the holidays were rough. So many wonderful memories that only bring tears. I miss you dad!

Girl Scouts has kept me busy, I love it. I am co-chairing this years cookie rally, so I have been super busy with that, and just organizing and trying to get new troops set up, not to mention my own troop! Boy are 12 year old girls talkative! We are involved in a postcard exchange this year and we are having great fun with it. It's cookie time again too, so if you want some, let me know!

The kids are busy too. Kaitlin has tons of homework, but she is doing very well this year. I have lightened up a bit and given her a little more freedom this year, like going to the library after school, and she is loving it!

Chris is busy with Technology club. He loves that, and it keeps his interest until soccer starts again!

Nicky, well he is just busy! He fell into a drawer this afternoon and cut his ear, probably needed stitches, but he bounced right back and is fine now! He is my little lovebug. Such a sweet boy, must take after me..... :)

Dave is a little less crazy now that the end of the year is over, he is still at Unum, and is still looking for a transfer to TN. He has also applied to a position in SC, so a move may be in the future! Who knows.

Well, until next time.

Missing you......

I miss you so much today Dad!

Rain, Rain, Go Away, Come Again Another Day!

It's been raining most of the day, how fun! We have been super busy, or maybe just I have been. I took my Girl Scout troop to camporee in October, that was a lot of fun. Last week, I ran a table at the polls for Girl Scout recruitment, and then I had to keep Kaitlin up all night Wednesday night so she would sleep for a test on Thursday. Now let me tell you, that was FUN!

The kids got report cards, and had conferences. Chris did ok, he's been about average. Kaitlin did awesome, she missed honors by one grade, and that was mainly because she failed a test. She studied hard, but just didn't get it! Oh well!

Nicky is growing like a weed! He is just so BIG, and so full of energy!

I guess that's about it here, until next time!

I miss you so much, I can't believe this is your second birthday away from us, how time flies. I think of you everyday, and miss you so much. You will always be in my heart.

I love you,

Happy Birthday Mungus

Dear Nicky,

I just wanted to tell you how happy you have made me these last four years. I love you so much. I love the funny things you do, and how you make me smile everyday, I love your miss and hug every morning, and rubbing you back at bedtime. I love it when you cuddle with me for no reason, and I especially love how you miss and talk about your Papa. I know he misses you too, and I'm sure he will be with us tomorrow when you have your "Uncle Tom" party(Thomas the Tank Engine) I love when you are supposed to be sleeping but I find you in bed with your books cause you are reading, I love how you can do everything your self, but when you can't you say oh, just kiddin. I love your dimples, and your cute little bum, and I really love your curlies! I love everything about you!

Happy Birthday Little Man!

Love,

Mama
