Hello Family....

out with the old in with the new! what will we do in this new year of 2009... hmm i think it will be a lot like 2008. well i hope to get my youngest out of diapers. try not to get any new pets, and re home a few i already have. i'd like to move. i'm not vary good at making short term goals . i've got lots of long term goals but limiting them to 1 year isn't really my thing. what about you? what are your 2009 goals?


did you hear i cut myself? washing dishes, cup shattered around my hand. it was kind of gross. the kids didn't see it tell i came back with stitches and it still made emi sick looking at it! lol! well anyways yesterday i cleaned my whole house and did most the dishes and broke the mane stitch....whoops! it didn't hurt but it's not scabbed over so i'm a little worried it'll open more. i've herd you can use super glue but that just seems strange to me! Kathy is bring me butterfly band aids. hopefully that will work. but i still don't get to do anything. so now the kids and i are going to do a few end of the year protects... i'm not sure what besides our book, it's hard to keep there attention for to long so i'll have to come up with something else to do. maybe a big poster or something.

I hope you all have a great day! try to think of all the wonderful things that have happened to you this last year!

I am truly blessed!
I am thankful for for my god and all that he has given me. The love of a wonderful husband, 4 incredible children, a warm home and all the earthy things i could need.
I am thankful for a wonderful family 11 sibling, a strong father (strong in more ways than mussel) a step mom i'm proud to look up to! A huge extended family! too many to name, but they are always in my heart and mind.
but most of all i am thankful for my god and how he has blessed me! THANK YOU!!


I hope all of your holidays are as wonderful as mine!!
