Merry Christmas

I just wanted to take the time and wish anyone reading a very "Merry Christmas". Don't forget to invite the guest of honor to the celebration of His birth.

We will be leaving for Monroe for Christmas with my mother's family this afternoon. We haven't all been together in years for anything but my mom's and grandmothers funeral, so this will be a treat. Actually getting together at a happy time in life. Even my cousin Amber in California will be there. I am so excited!!! Monday evening will will have Christmas with Joseph's family and Christmas day will be my very first time to host and prepare and cook Christmas dinner. My two sisters, Joseph's sister and Dad will be there also. I am kindof nervous, but they all love me so if it is bad they will forgive me. Wish me luck!

I have posted a few more pictures of the kids from over the past year!

Again, Merry Christmas and have a safe and Happy New Year!!!

The last couple of weeks

Sorry, that I haven't posted lately but it has been a busy couple of weeks. First last Wednesday D.J. had that hacking cough that gags you and it turns out she had a sinus infection. Then Kristen calls that same day from school and her throat and head was hurting so i took her to the doctor and she had strep throat. Well low and behold Katie calls home two days later complaining about her head and throat, well that was a false alarm thank God. Hunter went to bed really sick Thursday night and felt really bad the next morning but his passed. Joseph come home Friday and was really sick, you could see it in his face. He woke up Saturday morning feeling alot better and I woke up feeling really bad. Well needless to say i couldn't shake mine the way the boys did. I still had to clean, do laundry, etc... so it just kept getting worse. I ran fever all weekend, had this hacking cough that wouldn't stop and a migrain headache out of this world. My fingertips went numb and i was very nausious(Sp?) Anyway i went to the doctor on Monday and i have Broncitis (sp?), a boil on my rearend, tendinitis in my knee, and a bladder infection. Everything seems to have passed except this stupid cough, i can't shake it for nothing. The Dr. give me a shot of antibotics and followup antibotics by mouth and also a very good cough medicine. The problem with the cough medicine is it makes me FLY HIGH which is fine at night but I can't work like that. I made the mistake and took some around 2am Tuesday morning to get me thru the rest of the night and it stuck with me all day at work Tuesday. I had to concentrate so hard at work and I was doing payroll. So far no one has complained about time being incorrect.

In the middle of all that we went Christmas Caroling Friday night to some of the elderly people of the church. The kids had a great time, well so did the adults, and they did great too. We were the topic of conversation at the adult Christmas party the next night. Our pastors missed it b/c they were out of town so we all got together after church last night and went to their house, they were so surprised.

Well I guess that is it for now.

Christmas Picture of Kids

Wanted to share a couple of recent pictures of the kids. They are growing fast. Hunter is 15, 16 in January, D.J. is 13, Kristen is 9, 10 this month and Katie "Bug" will be 7 next week. I don't have a baby anymore, she is all grown up. Hope you enjoy!

Blogging?????

Okay, here goes. I have a couple of friends that don't have myspace so i choose to do the "Blog" thing for them. I will update periodically, or at least try too. Don't have much time today, but will get back to it shortly.
