I hope to do better.........

with maintaining our family blog :) i won't promise, but i will try my hardest to do better !!

the last time i posted to our OLD blog was halloween of 2006, WOW! a LOOOONNNGGG time ago. needless to say much has happened and changed since then :)

i had to start a new one even because i could NOT log into the old one. they changed stuff and it would not let me in.

so, i am going to try and keep up with this. i am working on an emergency preparedness blog as well, and i will link that one too and maybe everyone reading this one will be inspired to prepare as well.

tonight was a family home evening night ( mondays). the girls rotate who is in charge each week, and this week it was julianna. she is a little too young to make decisions about what we are going to do or talk about, so we try to do game night on her night. we started off with scrabble. HOW do SMALL kids play scrabble you ask? :) not very well would be the answer i suppose. they pick letters and then i help them with words. we were doing quite well and then julianna got bored and basically put all of her letters all over the board and then bella decided to just flick all of the little tiles. so, we started stacking them and bella thought it was fun to flick those too. SOOOO we busted out JENGA and the girls ROcKED at that. they really did a great job, and we got to the end of the game, with no more obvious pegs to pull out. they knocked it down, all of them together!!! it was cute.

i'm watching a rerun of Real Time with Bill Maher, he is a funny funny guy. his new rules is the best part of the show most of the time :)

later!!! i'll send out an email so that you all can put this addy in your favorites. because i KNOW that you live and breathe our family, teeheehee.
