2012

I was horrifed when I FINALLY logged into my Blogger account and realized that my last post had been in January 2012, and the post before that was 6 months prior! You see, with only one laptop in the house, and 3 hi-tech kids, 2 of which use the computer for their homework, I rarely ever use the laptop. I've resorted to using my iPhone for almost everything, yet for some reason I neglected to find a way to continue my blog online. Last week I found the Blogger app, and next week I'm upgrading my iPhone for a better camera. I should be able to easily keep the blog up to date with pics and details about the ongoings of our family. So, in 2011 - 2012, I basically used Facebook to keep everyone updated. In January of 2013, I decided to take a less active role in the whole FB world, as it seemed less and less people are actually keeping in touch that way. Below I am posting my favorite pics from my blogging sabbatical.

AWESOME!! Love the update with pictures! :) I really do like the last two of the family and boys in the leaves. That should be your header picture at the top of your blog. :)

We love Stone Mtn!! So wish we lived closer and we would go there all the time!! Their camp grounds are really nice!

Love the pictures that we can actually see the difference in the boys (Christmas and Halloween).

Thanks again for sharing!!

Thank you! I feel so much better now that things are documented. I think I've been having "sharing" withdrawls since I've stopped posting on Facebook. I'm sad that I've missed documenting the little things, but I'm happy to be back to blogging!

The first Saturday of December, I hosted my first Cookie Exchange. I had been wanting to do this for years, but things were always too busy. I decided to go ahead and do it anyway this year and it was fun! Lots of ladies attended and the cookies were great! Maybe I will do it again...

Hunter is Five!!!!!

Hunter turned the big 05 on Saturday, September 26th. He had a Mario Bros themed party. It turned out pretty well. He had a good turn-out at his party, even though it came a flood about the time everyone had to get in their cars. Thanks to all who braved the weather! The kids had a great time and no one got konked in the head while they were trying to break the pinata! :-) Hunter's Cake - I didn't even cry while decorating it! Daddy and Graham watching the Pinata action! Temporary Tattoos Isaac hitting the Chomp Chomp Pinata Hunters BIG present - A playground that is still sitting in boxes!

Carter for President

So, Saturday afternoon Carter decided he was running for President. This idea came from the book he recently purchased at the school book fair "Spongebob for President". He decided to make flyers saying "Carter for Prezident" and put them all around the house. I went upstairs to fold the laundry and came back downstairs to find his flyer creation station empty. I went outside and saw flyers all around the porch, but no sign of Carter. I called his name inside the house, I called his name outside the house and then I caught a glimpse of him halfway down the driveway. I thought he was heading down the driveway, but he was actually coming back up. I said "What on earth are you doing?" and he said I went to Mr. James' house to ask him to vote for me and he gave me a check. I almost passed out! I thought he had conned our neighbor into giving him a campaing donation. After he made it back to the top of the hill he showed me his notebook where he had writte...
