Well, I thought it was finally time to work on a blog. We have so much going on in our lives that I tend to lose touch with those who matter to me. In the spirit of bringing us all together, I have decided to follow in the footsteps of some of my closest friends and document "The Life and Times of this Crazy Family." I do hope that you enjoy the read. I will not be dedicating the blog to anything specific....just rambling through. I hope we can keep it interesting. :)
This week has been a rather rough one for us. My dear boy was sick and that threw everyone for a loop. I stayed with him on Monday and he went to the doctor. He ended up staying home Tuesday and came home early on Wednesday due to the cold. Thursday we were off (Veteran's Day), so he got an extra day of rest. He finally returned to school on Friday and made it the whole day!! Yay!! He seems so much better now! Thank goodness! I was really worried because it was taking him so long to throw it off. Now he is back to his happy and hyper self.
Melissa has been pretty busy this week too. She had a math test, which was concerning for her. Anyone who knows Mel well knows that Algebra is a completely foreign language to her. She is muddling through. I am sure she will pull off a terrific grade in that class...she is working so hard.
Our dear Sailor is doing well. She is happy, although freezing her little butt off. I have been working on stuff to send up to her. She texted earlier stating that she passed the test for the unit that she has been working on. This particular subject matter is completely foreign to her, but she is getting it...it just takes a little time. :) She is looking forward to coming home for Christmas...we will see what kind of time she has. I cannot wait to hug my daughter....I miss her so much.
As for Tom and I...we had a very spicy Saturday night <sarcasm>. I baked some cookies, worked on a scrapbook, and played mind numbing facebook games while he played a game on the Wii. Yeah, we are just party animals!! Watch out! In all seriousness, I enjoyed this night very much. We are always on the go, and to have this down time tonight was so wonderful. :) Such a blessing!!
I guess that is all for now...hope you enjoyed the read!
Sending Hugs and Smiles!!

ReplyDeletewelcome to the wonderful world of blogging! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteYay... you have a blog!!! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm a scrapbooker, too... and hubby and I lead very exciting lives as well. Today we might get in a hot game of Scrabble! ;)
I think the shower curtain idea would be awesome. If the snowflakes don't seem thick enough you could double them up and glue them together. Also, you could probably enlarge the pattern so they'd be more visible from a distance. Oh.... oh... and hang them from a strand of white lights!!! LOL.... love your idea!
