November/December 2008 Updates


I've totally been a slacker with this blog! November has flown by and now December is pretty much over as well. Let me back up to Thanksgiving, which is about as far as I can remember. (My memory is not what it used to be. I blame the kids. Isn't that what Moms are supposed to do?) My Aunt Mary (My Dad's sister) flew in from New Mexico and stayed with us for about 6 days and celebrated Thanksgiving with us. Our first Thanksgiving in our new home and we didn't have to rearrange furniture or anything to accommodate everyone. My grandma (Aunt Mary's mother) was able to join us for dinner and enjoy four hours of freedom from our local nursing home. My sister, Stephanie and her boys were here as well as Matt's mom, sister and sister's boyfriend. Dinner was yummy as usual.

Oh, wait....I did have a birthday in there, too. I turned 32 this year which is hard to believe. That is a real grown-up age. You would think having four kids would make me feel like a grown up, but I still feel very young. We went out to dinner to celebrate and Matt made me a chocolate cake from scratch! It was deliciously rich and tasted like it was from a fancy restaurant. Not a bite of that cake went to waste.

More to come, my computer is slow at putting pics on here!

I wondered what happened to that picture of me and Mom. I like it.
