2011...the year of ME

Oh how i long to be one of those beautiful blogger women who seem to have it all together and the time to blog! How do they do it? I want to work on some projects, i have a long list. I figured that if i post it here, i will feel more accomplished when i do them?! Who knows! After having a stiff and extremely sore neck all day, i spent a lot of time on the computer surfing some awesome blogs. I want mine to be awesome too. I want to inspire people and give them tools to create just as these women have helped me. So here's to 2011 being the year of me....and figuring out just who that is!

wow. a whole year and a few days!

::Labor Day at Wishon 2010::

Let's try this again! Maybe i can get better at it this year! ;)

10 months is too long

for a new daddy to be away from his son, and a hubby to be away from his wife...but at last they made it! I am so glad that my cousin Kelly has made it home for his 15 days of leave, the long part of his Iraqi journey is over!

Em was being shy, so instead of saying hi, she took out her gum! Kelly apparently speaks this language, he popped his out too!

Our day did not end on a sour note...

How I spent Labor day weekend...

My vacation began Wednesday....then came to an abrubt halt Thursday afternoon when Ken threw up all over the place and was running a fever. SO down the hill we went, leaving Em and her daddy to enjoy a few days to themselves. After a few days of rest, Ken was back to her goofy self again so we headed back up Saturday afternoon. And vacation went on as planned!Even Amos got to go camping for the first time!

Beer, Horseshoes, and a big rock that snuck up behind me when i wasn't looking....

That's right, we watched movies around the campfire one night!

Thanks to Melanie for bringing some princess goodies for all the girls to decorate!
Carli, Kennedy, Alexiya, Emma and Breena

Kennedy at the lake... CHEESE!

Perfect S'more!!

Perfect pants for S'more makin! :P

Em's play doh bird! Isn't he the cutest!!

Me and my silly "Ned"

Em and Lexi have been camping here every year together since they were one!

i don't have words.

Yes, Kennedy is crying, Emma is being a cheeser and Amos is chewing on his own lip, but that's us!!!!

I'm Back. Again!

Let's see if we can try this again and be real bloggers! I even made it all pretty all by myself! But that wore me out, so now I'm going to bed and then we'll add some pictures later!

New Do's

February was an all around S*it*y month! With my grandpa and my aunt passing away the same week, and having a miscarriage the week after! I was more than ready for it to be over! March has begun and so far so good:) I am feeling better as the days go by, but still have my moments. But tonight i decided to go out on a limb and give the girls their first haircut, at home! I was bit nervous, and hesitant. I kind of wanted them to go to a fun kids salon and have it cut by a professional. But then i realized i was talking about MY kids and that sounded great, but would probably end up disastrous!!! So, my baby girl no longer has a mullet! What a GREAT way to start this month :)

Ta Da!! :) She looks really cute! (If i do say so myself!) Emma just got a trim, it looks cute too, but not too much of a difference.

The end :)

My husband has a new love....

.......a 1930 Ford Pickup
He hasn't decided if it's a boy or a girl yet, (and he's even seen it's undercarriage!) So it remains nameless, for now. I have lots of new projects going, but shrinking their pictures to put on here apparently isn't one of them. I am now off to take Ken to the dr. oh boy. Then Jeff gets to take Em to the movies with his parents. ( I opted to stay home with the sicky! you know, put her to bed early, (because she IS sick) and then do something fun....like laundry...nah, that can wait i want to scrap!!!) Have a happy new year and hopefully i will stick to my resolution and keep up on my blog!
