Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

From our home to yours we wish you all the best that this blessed season can bring!

Life!

Well I haven't posted in a while. I haven't been doing very much other than work and Girl Scouts. I missed the actual reunion but I went to the game. There wasn't much of a turn out I thought that there would be more of us. I do think those that were planning did all that they could but the rest was really up to the class to make a good reunion. I wish that I could have gone to the reunion I would have loved to see some people again.

I attended Lauren's baby shower over the weekend. I haven't seen her in years and let me tell you she looked amazing! If it wasn't for the prego belly I would not have known she was pregnant. She does still have her "dancer's" legs. I loved seeing Connie too she looked so happy! I loved seeing old friends again. I would love to get together again soon. I am definitely going to see Lauren once things have settled down and she feels up to visitors. I wish that I had pictures to post but I had left my camera laying on the table at home (figures).

Girl Scouts has been so much fun and it really takes up a lot of my time but I feel it is totally worth it. I love being a girl scout. I think Anna likes it too, it's our time together.

Happy Halloween

I want to wish every one a happy Halloween! We have been looking forward to this for a while now and I have one extremely excited little girl. I also have one that has no idea why we insist on putting weird things on her and taking pictures (she's a little pink lady in her poodle skirt!) Anna is a hippy chick complete with custom bell bottoms! I will have pictures up later! We (Michael and Anna) carved pumpkins SCARY! I took pictures. One thing good I can say about this Halloween is we got to wear our PJ's to work today!!!!! I completed my look with minimal makeup and rollers in my hair-talk about scaring people!

I went to the family event last weekend and was so glad to see some old friends! I was nervous about nothing! It really was good to see some old friends. I will admit though the band well sucks (in comparison to its glory days in the 90's) I was also disappointed in the flag corp too.....shame!
I didn't get to got to the actual reunion because I had a Juliet Low Birthday Party/Halloween Carnival to go to for the Girl Scouts. I kind of wished I had gotten to go but next time I will.

I am getting excited about Lauren's baby shower next week! I am so happy for them! I know that she'll be a great mother! She has a good role model to look to for advice. I wish them all the best! I do hope that I will get to see the baby after the empress arrives too.

TO ALL A HAPPY AND SAFE HALLOWEEN!!!!!

• Michael hurt his back last weekend working out and has been on overtime all week. I have be in agony watching him hurt and knowing there is nothing that I can do about it. I finally convinced him to go to the doctor. I really hope that it's just a pulled muscle and not something serious.
• We had our Girl Scout investiture ceremony last night and had blast. Scarlet has become our troop's mascot and will be helping us sell cookies this year!!!! I love being a leader and I am growing s much as a mother and a person, I would recommend scouting to anyone.
• My grandfather had surgery last night and is doing OK. He had an enlarged prostate but all is well now.
• The family event for my 10 year high school reunion (I assume) is still on for tonight. I am very nervous about it for some reason. I am excited to see old friends again but I am still very nervous. Michael on the other hand thinks that I'll be fine and that it'll be fun for me. He is trying to be supportive and calm my fears. I guess he's right I do have a great life full of friends and family, I have a career and a beautiful home. I am still nervous about it though.
• My girls are growing up so fast and I just can't stand it.

Family

I was up last night just thinking about how blessed I am. I went and checked in on the girls as they were sleeping and thought about how lucky I am and how wonderful they are. Even though they can stress me out faster than anything else in this world but they bring greater joy than anything else as well. I am going to post some pictures of them just because I love them. They are pretty darn cute too if I say so myself!!!!

I also want to give Thanks to Colleen for her inspirational post about KY and curly hair. I passed the info on to Michael (who has super curly hair) and with a smirk decided to try it out last night. I will let everyone know that stuff is great, his hair looked so good. He was even happy with the way that it was in the morning after he had slept on it. I have included a picture of his hair right after he did all the stuff to it last night.

Ain't he cute!!!!!
