Maybe I should stop kidding myself

I think about updating the blog. I talk about updating the blog, I just never actually update the blog. With everyone on facebook these days, it seems like a waste of time since everyone sees our pictures on there. But I miss a place to write down what is going on in our life. A place to record the funny things that happen in this household and a journal of sorts of our lives. With Jason once again away, maybe the thinking and talking about updating will be replaced with an actual update. We shall see. :) Nobody hold your breath, or perhaps no one even bothers to check anymore??

The Christmas Cards that never came to be.....

I had good intentions of getting Christmas cards out this year. Even took the photos weeks in advance. I actually "made" the cards on Shutterfly, but couldn't make up my mind on which ones I wanted and couldn't decide on the photos. We didn't really get a good family one, but got some great ones of the kids. Jason didn't want to send one of just the kids, I didn't want to do what we did last year and have separate pictures......so we didn't make a decision. Then on December 12th I got sick. And stayed very sick until just a few days before Christmas. When you are laying on the sofa, sick as a dog, with 3 kids running around doing whatever they please, your husband is gone for 10 days and you can't see the floor from the mess, Christmas cards kind of get knocked off the list. :) Here are some of the ones of the kids we were considering. I think this first one shows their personalities so well. Kyle - happy go lucky, Ryleigh - goof ball, always hamming it up, Aiden - serious first born. :) I love this one too!

And this one!

Aiden is looking a little goofy here....

Hope everyone had a great Christmas!! Thanks to everyone who did send us a card, sorry we didn't respond with one! Maybe my New Years Resolution will be to update my blog regularly. :)
