Back on Track

I'm LOVING this new year ...

Life seems so "back to normal" right now
  • no more classes (it's AMAZING how many hours that took up of my life; I learned A TON and I use what I learned all the time at work, but I am soooo glad that's over).


  • I have so much more time to dedicate to our home and it feels soooo good to be organized. When I get home I'll add a pic of our chore chart and weekly menu. It feels awesome to be on top of things.













  • I have so much more time to spend with God (after the kids go to bed), and I got a great idea from Beth Moore (I just started this study) to journal in the first person every day about what God has shown me that day. I really like it. So many times I've tried to remember things that God has shown me/told me, and I can't remember the details or the time period. This will really help with that. I'm also enjoying reading the one year bible online. I love choosing different versions depending on my mood. Sometimes I even choose French. Keeps it fresh :)



  • it feels really good to get back to my crafts--currently quilting (my "girlie" quilt for me), and scrapbooking (paper-scrapping our "cross-country" trip from August 2008).

Missing You

By
We've been having internet problems since last Friday evening. It goes on and off sporadically. Someone should be coming today to fix it (and of course it's working perfectly right now, lol!). I don't usually blog in the middle of the day (too much house stuff to do) , but I gotta grab the internet while I can. I'm desperate! It has actually startled me to realize how connected I am to all of you--even you, Ronalyn, and I have never met you. I have so missed reading blogs, commenting on them, and posting. I have really felt disconnected to you all (yeah, I'm a "recovered hick" but I can't erase that expression from my vocabulary--however, I don't say, "y'all." I do draw the line there. Sorry if I'm offending anyone--as in my sister and brother-in-law, but I don't consider you guys hicks.) . So I hope the person who comes to repair the internet issue can perform a miracle so I don't have to miss you anymore :)

A Rare Moment Captured on Film

By
No, it's not a rare moment that my kids brush their teeth (well, it would be if left up to them!). I walked into the bathroom tonight to see both my kids in the bathroom brushing their teeth ... and this is the rare moment--they actually got along! I had to run and get my camera to document this rare moment of parental bliss. And now I'm sharing it with you. Now isn't your day more complete?!

Another Layout

Credits here . Can you tell how I've been spending my free time :) I had the most fun taking these pictures! I just asked Ashley to tell me a story (she is quite the storyteller and quite the drama queen--she takes after her aunt, lol!) . As she was telling her GREAT story, I just used the "continuous" mode in the fancy, shmancy camera and shot away. Went to Seal Beach today with Teena . So fun and relaxing. Why don't I have pictures to share? Ummm, I kind of forgot the CF card (to store the pictures on) at home. That's only the second time in less than a week that I've done that. Aren't you proud of me?! In case any of you were wondering, yes, I am a total "spaz." :)
